This is similar to Zeathoros’s Oort Online Race Suggestions topic, but this one will have drawings instead of descriptions.
This is for anyone that has a paper and pencil, pen, tablet, anything that you can draw with! COLLABORATE YOUR IDEAS IF YOU MUST
What you need to do:
Pick an animal or mix of animals that interest you
Find reference images
Draw it NOT realistically, but try to make it look geometric.
Some curvy lines and shapes are okay, it’s a concept, not a perfection contest. As long as the idea’s there and the message is clear, then that’s all you need!
Does the shape closely resemble to what you’re thinking of?
Show it to someone else, Is this how you want your viewers to see it as in first glance?
if not, keep the silhouette for later ideas or post it along with your other race concepts.
if it is, good job! either make more silhouettes similar to that shape and finish the early designs by adding in values, or just finish that one silhouette.
DON’T immediately throw it away if they see it as something different, working with happy accidents is another way of finding great ideas.
Looking forward to see what you guys come up with :>
(I’ll be editing this more and more later on to make it more clear and organized to everyone, I’m really bad at explaining things )
Screw you @Nyuudles ! You inspired me to stay up to 1:45am drawin stuff >:L (thanks?)
I made a lynx cuz they’re great. I just started stealing the brown tones from the original concepts because I wanted my colors to be nicer looking
Seeing the character reminded me of a muse I made a long, long while ago names Toshi. It took me forever to fish up these old files but the style somewhat reminded me of him.
I have like 0 skills with art. I just made an attempt at a “red-panda” race, but it was a complete bust. Anyway, I really, REALLY love the owls. I love owls so much! I’d be in heaven if they were added.
My thoughts are along the lines of something that would be smaller, and probably more agile as far as racials go. However, it needs very large ears and a big fluffy tail. Why? Because cuteness.
I think that this game should stand out from others, such as your graphics. Of course, you all have cool ideas, models do not have to be perfect but not polygonal as in Minecraft, more polygons Should improve visual quality.
Do not expect a super 3d models, but that they are not so angular.
