<div class="IPBDescription">How Much of a Gamer Are You?</div> Hello! I am drawing something right now. Yes, like, right now. I got to thinking "Hey, I wanna draw some game characters!" so I started! And for the first one, I thought "Hey, why not have it so these guys have to guess who the character is based on small hard-to-see pictures?" Well there are plently of reasons why I shouldn't do it, but I threw caution to the wind and did it anyways!

So here goes! The reason this is a contest is this.
I'll probably do a contest for each character I draw. But anyways, first prize goes to the first person to guess correctly. The first prize winner gets to decide which two characters I've drawn before (including the game character from the contest) get to fight eachother in my next drawing (it'll be a two or three-page comic of them fighting). "Pfft" I hear you say, but hey, I don't have much else to give...

Second prize winner will... er... well I haven't really thought about it yet... Well, they'll get to decide what concept I draw next. However, a few restrictions I ask are these: No Anime. No naked people. No scantily-clad women. I don't like drawing women, so I may refuse even normal women. No furries. No tentacles.

Third prize winners get bragging rights that they stole ideas from others <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> and er.... well, just bragging rights I guess.

Anyways, here's the first hint picture. Post your guesses in this thread!

<b>ANOTHER EDIT: Also, tell the game and the developer the character is from. Forgot to mention that too >_<</b>

    Samus Aran, from Nintendo's Metroid series. And I'll stick with that until it finally clicks what it REALLY is.

    By the way, as soon as I have 3 correct answers, I'll end it.

    Excuse my friendly sense of humor. I won't do it again.

    A valid criticism is a valid criticism, and it shouldn't be edited away.

    It's a picture. Obviously.

    I don't appreciate your sarcasm.

    Anyways, I updated the rules. I forgot to mention that you have to name the game the character is from, and the game's developer.

    To me it actually looks like one of <a href='http://guyver7017.tripod.com/Guyver/fight04b.jpg' target='_blank'>The Guyver</a>'s limbs.

    Well, the contest really wasn't over.... But I guess it'll have to do since enforcer spoiled it. A couple of the winners didn't mention the bloody name of the game <b>or</b> the developer... but it's pretty much out now.

    Anyways, the answer is, yes, Samus Aran, from Metroid Fusion, developed AND published by Nintendo.

    The work in progress of her coloring! Expect 3 flavors: normal data, varia data, and gravity data. ^_^

    EDIT: Oh right, the winners.

    First: Slayer111, for getting it barely seconds after I put the thread up.
    Second: Sniper chance
    Third: Inafiscisis or whatever.

    Kudos, I suppose!

    Oh, I thought it was a knee.
  • InafiscisisInafiscisis Join Date: 2003-04-30 Member: 15965Members
    "or whatever"?

    OR WHATEVER??!

    **** it...

    Oh well, at least it was properly spelled...

    Shouldn't that be "her" right gun arm?

    Right well, after I get back from practice this afternoon, I'll list the characters to pick from anyways, here's the final versions of the armor. Comes in 3 flavors!
    (I realize the left arm is a bit short, and that she's a bit too stocky)

    <img src='http://home.insightbb.com/~bghsurge/images/art/samusfinish.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>
    <b>Standard!</b>

    <img src='http://home.insightbb.com/~bghsurge/images/art/samusvaria.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>
    <b>Varia data!</b> (I realize the green is kind of the wrong shade)

    <img src='http://home.insightbb.com/~bghsurge/images/art/samusgrav.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>
    <b>Gravity data!</b>

    Fun.

    Yes, I was informed her arm was a bit too short... and she's too stocky... which the second would cause a problem of the first. Anyways, er... slayer, which of my characters do you want to fight? I don't suppose you've seen much of my art... well if you need a list and pictures of em, ask me.
