Custom loading screens

[Raem]

This has been brought up before by players. Here's your chance. Post some art for new loading screens plox. I'll do my best to get them in the next patch.

[Dular]

Seriously? We'll have new loading screen art! My god, its been like, a year and a half. Rejoice!

Get me 4 great artists, one comedian, one person from 1.0, and one person that everyone picks on, stat!


Josh, Raem, and/or Shiney will be required in one of them.

[Seil]

one person from 1.0, and one person that everyone picks on, stat!

I can be both! (http://forum.nuklearpower.com/showpost.php?p=894840&postcount=423) I seem to remember something like this popping up quite a bit ago, so it'll take me a bit to traverse the Dead Thread Hellhole.

Give me a few days plox! ;_;

[StudlyDuck]

Can we get a general idea of how long we have?

[Raem]

Take your time, several weeks.

[profluj]

Man I wish I was a good Artist ;-;

[dyreth]

might want to give a average dimensions of a loading page. Sure it probably can be stretched or collaged with others but might be good to have them a decently sized version from the get go.

anyways i guess i'll have to go photoshop an actual RO based picture ...

[vesperity]

i haven't seen RO go above 1280x1024, so maybe thats about right.

[Seil]

I remember a post that Dyr made in the EL forum - I'll PM you a link if you want, Ty - that included a bit of the Exiled Legion that wouldn't be too bad for a loading screen. It's just that the pic isn't there anymore. ( U U )

[dyreth]

lol i rember that pic >< that was so sketchy ><

god this picture sucks seil why did you have to mention it ><

Try for 1024x768 size.

[Nikose Tyris]

Oh god oh god If you put a picture of ProphetX mooning us I will play this game again so fast.

yes do this.

[Grieverjoe]

Count me in.

[mjre_shadow]

would it be too difficult to make it client side changable too? D:

[dyreth]

it is client side changeable, just read the stuff in one of those links, i already have my kafra changed to a more preferable image.

[Giever]

Yeah. I wonder what that is, dyreth. <_<

[Seil]

I have some ideas but I wouldn't post them here as they're NSFW.

[Dular]

I have some ideas but I wouldn't post them here as they're NSFW.

For everyone else: Just imagine the Lighthalzen Kafra's, but 5 years younger and 3x more sexier.

[Raem]

For everyone else: Just imagine the Lighthalzen Kafra's, but 5 years old and 3x more sexier.

Fix'd.

[Giever]

Can't believe how many times i had to reread that to see what you changed.

[vesperity]

I totally spotted it instantly!

And you know I bet he just replaced them with that really really cute girl with the teddy bear that makes you that one hat in NW geffen? Yea you know what I'm talking about =O

[Tev]

I think it's funny how that reminded me of Dokapon Kingdom.

[vesperity]

dude that game/anime/lolicon is amazing where do I get it o.o

also that should totally be a loading screen, except make her say "RaiRO 2.0!!!!" and have the card be a RO card or something.

YOU GONNA GET TAKEN HOME!!!

Suggestion for a screen:

Stalker (male) behind high priest (female). Stalker is shouting FULL STRIP !! and high priest is looking embarrassed.

That would be awesome.

[vesperity]

lol.

also I would, but like I don't have a wii.

also I'm sort of embarassed to play it in front of my roomies.

also it reminds me a lot of tales of symphonia and ff crystal something.

[Grieverjoe]

Stalker (male) behind high priest (female). Stalker is shouting FULL STRIP !! and high priest is looking embarrassed.

Bonus points if his thumbs are hooked around the waist of her panties through the rediculously long slit in her dress.

I'm on it. Gimme a few days.

[Grieverjoe]

Alright, WIP here. And, yes, that does look like Tev and that does look like Shaelyn because it was their idea. Comments, criticism and stuff is welcome.

[Tev]

Tears of joy.........I'm shedding them...... Y_Y <3

[Dular]

If it was coloured, then it would be set!

[DraconisMaster]

The asscape should be purple, in honor of The Dark Ages, when they only came in purple.

[Tev]

The asscape should be purple, in honor of The Dark Ages, when they only came in purple.Yeah, but SSG's color scheme is light green.

[Raelin]

That... is... indescribably awesome. I love it. :D

[MasterOfMagic]

Beautiful.

Just beautiful.

[Grieverjoe]

If it was coloured, then it would be set!

Like I said, it's a Work-In-Progress. I plan on coloring it when I get home from work. Any more ideas, post them here. I'm sure more people want to join in, but lack ideas like me.

[Fye]

Wow, thats better than anything I did XD

But yeah, I want to do something too, I sketched a bit, but need some more ideas

[Dular]

Raem showing HOW MANLY HE IS by summoning a Raembow.

Prophet drunk and with his harem consisting of Banshee, Isis, Dryad, etc..

Bartre the Brave mid-tomahawking a nublet full of hope and wonder for this server.

Shaelyn with a pyramid of hats on saying "I'm not a hat-addict."

A Biochemist with an Acid Demonstration !! above him, smirking at an armorless Paladin.
An Assassin Cross leaving bed from a... lady class hiding the skill announcement "enchant deadly poison".
Center Prontera through a Merchant's eyes.


All I can come up with for the moment.

This brings a tear to my eye. It really does.

:)

[dyreth]

currently working on a pic for this, but got up to the waist colored atm, but i'll probably add a female in it as well to balance it out, and forcibly make it widescreen

[Lomilmalinde]

I'm working on something for this as well, but goodness knows Lion's is obviously better than anything mine would be. XD

[Giever]

Well I haven't really seen any drawing of yours without a female, so that sounds like good measure, I guess.

[dyreth]

Well I haven't really seen any drawing of yours without a female, so that sounds like good measure, I guess.



lol ^^ i seem to tent to color females more often then males, its not entirely that i draw more females jsut that the females often look better in pencil form. But this guy just looks cool so i was like, I have to color him! Tecnilcly there is another male in the picture with him, kinda kneeling to his side, but im not sure if i'l add him.

Also who is "Lion"? is that some code name for a person i know?

[Grieverjoe]

Also who is "Lion"? is that some code name for a person i know?

That would be me, good sir.

[Grieverjoe]

WIP update. Priestess inked. Inking always takes the longest, at least for me. Will work on the Stalker when I get home tomorrow. For now, though, bedtime.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/load2.jpg

...also I realized I left out the bow on the front. Ah, well. I'll add that tomorrow.

[dyreth]

k completed. I got kinda lazy with the background so bleh. But hey i did manage to recreate the 8-bit theater logo XD And yes i know very well i didnt full follow any specific ro based design perfectly...

What class is that?

[The Mystical One]

For convenient reference:
http://offsite.baldninja.com/RO/ShaelynRed.jpg

[Tev]

I'd post my reference but it'll still be about 8 job levels before I hit Stalker. I'm sure you've seen enough of them though to figure it out.

[dyreth]

What class is that?

i was loosly basing off of ninja and a thief

[mjre_shadow]

anyone have the proper way for changing that second login screen? the one with rachel in the background.

i have various different setups of the picture i would like as it, i even have chopped it apart into tiles and used the same naming convention that i found in the sdata.grf and it sadly ain't working. i think i need a different symbol naming convention for the actual filename, not sure what though.

any help please would be appreciated:gonk:

[Raem]

I've been working on that actually :B

http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/cc282/SilverNoble/Preview.jpg

[mjre_shadow]

what format did you put them/it in and the file naming convention in the À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º folder?

[Raem]

Well first off, you have to convert them back to the original korean code afterwards. That is, the folder AND any files you put in them. I will not be providing any help with personally modifying your client.

[mjre_shadow]

i did put it back into the korean and it wasn't giving me the new loading screen

edit: and no i am not repacking it into the sdata.grf, i just followed the original instructions that were linked to in this thread's first few posts

[Grieverjoe]

WIP update. Inking done. Will finish coloring soon. As always, feedback and comments welcome. Also, Dular, when I'm done with this one, I might take you up on one of those ideas of yours.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/load3.jpg

[Grieverjoe]

Done, finally. Here ya go, kiddies.

http://fc01.deviantart.com/fs41/f/2009/047/5/d/RaiRO_loading_screen_by_Grieverjoe.jpg

[Naoki]

Am I the only one that thinks he looks like Brock from Pokemon?

Anyway awesome~ : D

[younglink27]

Hah, it kind of does :D Well Brock would do that anyways if he was a high level stalker ^^
That is awesome though, nice work! :D

[Grieverjoe]

Well, he's supposed to be Tev... but yeah, I kinda see it. And Brock is a pervert, so I guess it works out.

[2nnoyconfuse]

Liking the colors (besides the picture itself) :D

Very vivid.

[Tev]

Well, he's supposed to be Tev... but yeah, I kinda see it. And Brock is a pervert, so I guess it works out.Are you calling me a pervert......possibly one who's been known to stalk certian RaiRO-ers? >_> *Cloaks and runs away*

EDIT: Oh and by the way, that looks awesome. You do great work and I'm glad to be part of it. ^_^

[Adrian Faust]

You used to (or maybe still do, I dunno) stalk Meds parties! =o

[StudlyDuck]

The hearts on the panties are a nice touch.

[Victus]

Dammit Lion, you're fucking great. That must be a loading screen.

[Grieverjoe]

Are you calling me a pervert......possibly one who's been known to stalk certian RaiRO-ers? >_>

Maybe. >_>

[The Mystical One]

Awesome. Just awesome.

Bartre the Brave mid-tomahawking a nublet full of hope and wonder for this server.

I might take you up on one of these next, I just don't know which one yet, since I have an awesome mental vision for all of them.

[vesperity]

this is possibly the second greatest work of art ever related to RO. I am crying :< its so beautiful!

in case you're wondering, the greatest piece of art is the adaptation of the movie version of The Princess Bride which I'm almost completely done with.

EDIT: ps do the bartre the brave one. i wanna be the nublet =o

[Fye]

Dibs on Proph and his harem

[vesperity]

make sure he has LOTS of parasites, and um, those loli lifs (the ones that don't float, and have nipples! =X)

[The Mystical One]

You're mistaking Proph for Hadoken

[Wyndon]

No way, Hadoken would have Chung E's. Little asian girls.

[younglink27]

He'd have both!

[Flarecobra]

Make one of the girls of RaiRO!

[Predestin]

Needs more character rivalry.

Like Martie v. Jack

Or even Martie v. Jadeis :D

[profluj]

Jack?
Coyote. . Jack?
Jack. . . Sparrow?

[Predestin]

Father Jack.

[The Wizard Who Did It]

Needs HW bitching.
Make one of the girls of RaiRO!
Then you logically need one of the guys of RaiRO.

[Grieverjoe]

When you say "The girls (or guys) of RaiRO", you encompass every girl (or guy) that plays RaiRO. That's a lot. SO, I will do that, but I will only include the first three girls (or guys) to reply to this message giving me a screenshot of their character to be portrayed. That way, there can be 5 characters per drawing: Flare and my wife (cuz she totally has dibs to my drawings) plus three more for the girls, and Epic and me (because I'm the one drawing, DUH!) plus three more guys.

Sound fair?

Also,Needs HW bitching.


I think I can do something with this one, too.

[Victus]

Totally want in on this Lion =D

Ahhhh I'm at work so this is the best I have atm (gimped from another screenshoot - she's obviously the one in the middle). Could you put Aana in there? I can give you a better one when I go home on my lunch hour^^

There's a picture of Beta (With and without warmth on). Or, if you want to use nills instead, he's my Avatar :D
I don't care which pic I get to be in, either's fine for me :D

[vesperity]

you gotta use beta so I can get in on the male limit D=

crap i can't get on to take a screenie, BUT I TOTALLY DIBS THIS SPOT

he's the HP with the purple color scheme and a panda hat with purple raem hair (the ponytail one) and a romantic leaf.

dammit i can't get on the rms char generator either.

EDIT: oh you know what, I just realized you meant 3 total. SO YOU SUCK! D= But I'd still like to see the pic :<

[Tev]

Due to Vespy not having a screenie.....Tev ninja!

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v110/Loneglade/TevFront1.jpg?t=1219561679

But no really, if Vespy wants in he can have my slot. You've already done an awesome job with my Stalker-to-be and Lomi is already doing an awesome picture for me so I'm cool with being left out.

[shiney]

I guess I should get a screenshot of rhetoric up here then.

RE: second loading screen

following the details from one of the links Seil posted, i was finally able to figure out the naming convention for the tiled screen.

no .grf changes necessary *dances*

[Seil]

http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u59/Poetisch/Rawr-6.jpg

[Lunais]

Aww, I missed it ;_; Dumb school.

[Grieverjoe]

Alright, I got them. These will be the characters included.

Females:
Lomi
Erika
Aanaren
Beta
Selfish

Males:
Lion
Epic Wizard
Victus
Bartre
Seil

Selfish, would you mind posting a better screenie of your character for reference? Also, Shiney, I have decided not to include you in this one, because, since you're, like, THE Shiney, I think I should do one for you separately.

Off to work I go!
EDIT: Also, Epic, post me a screenie of your character, ploxenz! k?thx!

[Grieverjoe]

Needs HW bitching.


Fix'd.
http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/hwb.jpg

...and don't take this one seriously. I was just having fun. :P Will start on the REAL ones as soon as people give me the character references.

[Tev]

Lion, I love you......in the most manly heterosexual way one man can love another.

[Raem]

Lion, I love you......in the most manly heterosexual way one man can love another.

Then clearly I love him more then you.

[Tev]

Then clearly I love him more then you.That's fine. You don't have a girlfriend that you would have to explain homoerotic internet love to.

Or maybe you do and she likes that kinda thing. I'm not here to judge, just say that's not a conversation I need to be having with my girl.

[vesperity]

I can't believe Seil got in instead of me!

I mean like, he made hpriest like 2 days ago! I made mine like 2 years ago T.T

Could I request you draw in a panda hat in a corner as a sort of cameo? =(

[Grieverjoe]

Then clearly I love him more then you.

>_>

...you love me enough to give me a Helm of Sun God? :D

Also, Vesp, I included Seil because he provided me with the screenie. I didn't include Tev because his other character has already been drawn.

[The Mystical One]

That kind of logic is why I didn't ask for 'Shaelyn with all her hats surrounding her'

[StudlyDuck]

Did anyone else just picture Shae swimming through hats like Scrooge McDuck in his money bin?

[Aanaren]

Did anyone else just picture Shae swimming through hats like Scrooge McDuck in his money bin?

Now that's a custom loading screen I'd like to see... XD

[Grieverjoe]

This is something I did just for fun. It was pretty fun, too. Killed about half an hour of my time. Maybe not a submission, perse, but if you guys wanna use it, more power to ya's.

So it's closed? No more screenshots can be submitted? D:

[Grieverjoe]

Well, I'm starting to reconsider, since the two people I asked screenshots of never replied. I'm gonna give them one more day, then I might reopen. It all depends on them. I haven't even started because of it.

Epic and Selfish... screenshot, plx?

[Selfish]

I have been unable to access the Forums for the past few days. Allow me a moment while I dig one up, please.
Thank you for your patience.

[KeienSlayer]

My drawing skills aren't even in the same race as Lion's, but I'll give it a shot. But I'll need an idea because I'm not sure how to pull off PX's or Shae's.


~Lamael

[Victus]

Lion, have you started on the one with me in it? If not, I would like to submit an updated screeny, now that I'm a Sinx.
http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m226/AuronTheUnsent/screenRaiRO337.jpg

[Lunais]

Well, if you need another female character, here's some shots of Vielle

http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/1927/vielleposes.png

[Grieverjoe]

I'm sorry, everyone, but I haven't started drawing on any of the new loading screens. Reason for that being is that, with the last two, I had an idea in my mind of what I wanted them to look like. With these new two, I don't.
So, forgive me while I try and get myself out of this artist's roadblock and maybe you'se guys can help me with some ideas. These new loading screens are supposed to feature five males and five females in each screen.

Ideas?

[Raem]

Piggyback racing.

[Dular]

Generally cool poses.

Except me. I try to Axe Victus.

[Grieverjoe]

...not quite what I was looking for, Raem, but thanks for the input. :P I finaly figured something out and I started working on the females one. Here's the rough sketch of the progress so far.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/screengirls.jpg

That'd be Erika and my wife, Lomi. Now, to fit in Aana, Beta and Selfish.
Also, since Epic Wizard never gave me a screenie, I'm gonna add Vespy instead of him. Vesp, gimme a screenshot of your character. I wanna make these two more serious, rather than the comical feeling of the first one.

[Lomilmalinde]

I'm working on this too!
I'm not quite as industrious as my husband is, but I'm tryiiiiing ;_;

So, uh...
Preview of finished lineart for one of two screens I'll definitely be doing!
It just needs color now... >_<
The other one needs to go straight from sketch into color for the look and feel I'm hoping for, so I won't be posting a preview of it. :P

http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b69/myuuchan/scribbles/load-screen-1.jpg

I'ma try to color it tomorrow or Sunday and I'll keep working on the other one too, the base colors are going it now... :x

[Flarecobra]

*Giggles* Love the goofy face. :D

And looks like you spilled some salt or something.

[KeienSlayer]

This is the beginning of mine. Points to whoever can name the LK in the picture. (He can't name himself =P)
http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z60/KeienSlayer/RaiROloadingscreen.jpg

EDIT: Bah, it's sideways. Let me try and fix that.

EDIT2: Turns out it isn't a problem with photobucket, so I dunno what's up.

[profluj]

Raven776,
And my Loading Screen will be sub-par as well.
But it will take me a while, im even worse at coloring, so im gonna have someone do that for me. :D

My basis is, Baglis taroting(and coma'ing) Whomper, so the card is over his head and he is trying to pressure Baglis. But failing :3

[Victus]

Generally cool poses.

Except me. I try to Axe Victus.
I love you too mate ^_-

[Grieverjoe]

WIP update. Rough sketch for Beta, Selfi and Aanaren done. I rather like Beta's pose, and Selfi showing some awesome elbow cleavage, there.
http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/screengirls2.jpg

Also, the reason why Aanaren has no face is because I don't know if you want me to draw her with the equips she has on that screenie (Ulle's, Blinker and flower), so, Aana, get back at me and lemme know so I can give her a face. :)
And, by the way, I'm drawing each character individually and then putting them all together in one screen. Just to let ya's know.

[Aanaren]

Lion thanks for checking! I would prefer her normal equips, here's a much better screenie :D

One down, now to finish the cooler one.

My hand hurts. ;_;

[The Mystical One]

You two are the most artistic couple I have ever met.

[Lomilmalinde]

*cheesy grin*
I think we're pretty well matched in our marriage.

Of course, I like his lineart better, he likes my coloring better.
One of the next ones we do should be a collaboration. XD

[Michael Valentine]

The LK is Raven776?

Also, wow, Lion, those drawings are amazing. I envy the people who get drawings. XD

[The Unbeliever]

hehehe, that is silly Lomi, I like it!

[Grieverjoe]

Bear with me, peoples. I'm still working on the females. I know you guys know this will take a bit longer than the previous one, given that there are FIVE characters this time. Sketching done, inking in progress. Will post an update when the inking is done, or at least halfway there.

[Grieverjoe]

WIP update. Inking on ONE character done. Gawd, the inking took FOREVER on this one. Now I'm sorta dreading working on the other ones. I HAET the boots, not because they look bad, but because they took the longest to ink.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/lomi.jpg
Also... hands are not my forte. Next in line to ink: Erika.

EDIT: And, yes, those are Desert Eagles in her hands.

[Fenris]

Wow dude, that's...

That's amazing.

[StudlyDuck]

Working on one myself, but stuff came up, so no idea if it'll be done in time.

[Flarecobra]

Just one thing: Doesn't Lomi use gatlings?

[Grieverjoe]

Just one thing: Doesn't Lomi use gatlings?

She's dual specced for gatlings and pistols and she told me she liked the pistols. Also, you use revolvers, am I correct?

[Lomilmalinde]

She's dual specced for gatlings and pistols and she told me she liked the pistols. Also, you use revolvers, am I correct?

That. :3
Also, being able to stand and look over his shoulder at the WIP, the pistols definitely work better for the overall piece. :D

Still working on the next one, here... *pokes at Photoshop*

[divinewind]

I dunno, I remember seeing the concept art fomr gunslingers on the RO website, if i recall correctly the female gunslinger was stradleing a gatling gun... that shit's hot

[Flarecobra]

Yeah. I have the picture saved.

And to be honest, it also makes the female ninja look quite the slut.

[Seil]

Here's the official art and a blurb on the classes from the official website, just 'cause I had no idea things like the Minstrel and Hunter actually looked like that:

[Naoki]

You like linking things, don't you?

[Raem]

I'm going to think of that female champ picture everytime I see Martie now. Great.

[entrando2]

You like linking things, don't you?

It seems they don't... as Soul Linker is the only class that hasn't an art work!

[mjre_shadow]

soul linkers have an official artwork: male (http://img.ragnarokonline.com/download/wallpaper/Wpap_20061026_SLM800.jpg), female (http://img.ragnarokonline.com/download/wallpaper/Wpap_20061026_SLW800.jpg)

anywho, i'm making some custom loading screens for soul and myself and i lack having a head-to-toe unobstructed view of the male paladin official artwork. first person that can dig me up a decent-sized photo of that gets a peco peco egg card.

[vesperity]

if I remember correctly in most of the nonextended classes, the pics of the male + female chars "glide" into the screen.

If thats an animated gif (unlikely) you can open it in photoshop and just pick out the frame w/o the female one in front of him.

Or, if its in flash (more likely) you can probably decompile them...somewhere. Or at least get its frames.

[Tev]

soul linkers have an official artwork: male (http://img.ragnarokonline.com/download/wallpaper/Wpap_20061026_SLM800.jpg), female (http://img.ragnarokonline.com/download/wallpaper/Wpap_20061026_SLW800.jpg)

anywho, i'm making some custom loading screens for soul and myself and i lack having a head-to-toe unobstructed view of the male paladin official artwork. first person that can dig me up a decent-sized photo of that gets a peco peco egg card.

Will this (http://cube-ro.com/extra/card/Paladin.bmp) work for you? If not I've got more.

EDIT: Personally, I like the Crusader (http://evenlight.net/odyssey/Character_Crusader.jpg) art better.

[Kathy]

not quite what you aksed for, but maybe it'll help if nobody finds anything better:
high quality paladin with nothing in front of him. but lacks feet (http://img158.imageshack.us/img158/4499/wpap200612739dn.jpg)
kinda small male+female paladin, but at least you can see his footgear things (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Vx-1f8yT3Ss/SOgvT54B3vI/AAAAAAAAAzM/UmEXH8b2V-c/s320-R/paladin.jpg).

edit: Vespy: none of the 2-2 trans class do the glide thing sadly :(

[Lomilmalinde]

//Edit: Ninja'd by Kathy! XD
Still looking.

[Tev]

I like how we all posted different versions of the same picture.

[Lomilmalinde]

Ah-ha.
This (http://orenji-kun.deviantart.com/art/Paladins-80138367) is not official artwork, but it's a near-perfect representation of a Paladin's full armor.

[mjre_shadow]

you guys are getting warmer ^_^

i checked for the animated-ness of the one, and sadly it isn't, so i can't rip the frames apart

but yeah, i want nothing in front of him...he's the only one i'm missing to be able to complete the loading screens :gonk:

(if i get 2 pics, again decent size, where i just have to pice him together to get an unobstructed male pally, that also counts)

[Raem]

Disregard I fail.

[vesperity]

dude she wants the feet.

and, i think its been posted already ^^

[mjre_shadow]

but he's missing about half his legs XD *continues searching as well*

[Lomilmalinde]

Did mine not count because it wasn't official artwork? :(

...mmkay... *pokes Google*

[vesperity]

my theory is that they never actually drew in the feet =o

[mjre_shadow]

lomi, yours is what i consider next best, because i'd have to color it XD. so if no one can get me an official type instead of line art, you win (or if you got it colored before anyone else got one, you'd win hands down)

contest contines! :3

[Tev]

Oh hey look, a guy paladin's feet......

http://img.ragnarokonline.com/community/fanArt/Paladins02_Saya_001.jpg

.....from #$%^#$^$$%^@^&&(&( BEHIND! :stressed:

[vesperity]

its cool just paste it onto the paladin image.

mjre won't notice >.<

[dyreth]

working on a pic with Alcyone, Milagros, Kame, Nills and me in it. Dont think i can fit anyone else in this little piece of paper XD

[Kathy]

its cool just paste it onto the paladin image.

mjre won't notice >.<

I actually had a similar idea...
Behold! A Paladin with feet:
http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/4647/paladinwiffeet.jpg
>_>
<_<
:D


edit: oops, forgot to kill the HUGE white bit...

[mjre_shadow]

no winner yet ^_^, i'm wondering if this is boiling down to wanting the card or bragging rights on pictures :sweatdrop

[Tev]

Okay, not a Paladin....but...just wow. I didn't know minstrels were so....so...yeah.

http://knol.google.com/k/-/-/c0ym3q8yer5e/vzvuit/wpap200628min800.jpg

[mjre_shadow]

tev gets a prize for unexpected but really cool found cosplay, i'll try to find you ingame

artwork for paladin loading screen that i'm working on for a peco peco egg card still up for grabs

[dyreth]

you cant get what doesnt exist... gravity only drew 1 version of it, and it was scaled down in resolution and tossed behind a fem pali... whiel the high res version they decided to cut the feet. Thus your out of luck ><

anyways here's my lineart of Alcy, milagros, me, nills and kame
mil said to not make her slutty, so i instead made her drunk hahahaa

[Grieverjoe]

WIP update. Inking on Erika done. Next in line is Beta.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/erika.jpg

Gawd, these are taking forever to ink and I still need to color them AND work on the males. What's the deadline for these things, again?

[Raem]

-shrug- Whenever you're done.

[Grieverjoe]

I think, in the Paladin's case, Gravity made the artwork, then created the sprite, then realized, "Hoshit, the feets for these guys SUCK!" But it was already too late, as they'd already released the artwork AND the sprite. So, in order to save themselves millions of dollars paying the artists to recreate the artwork/sprite (and because they're lazy bastards) they decided to shrink instead those that show the dude's feet and crop them off altogether from the high-quality one.

Yeah, that's probably what happened.

[Naoki]

I'm terrible at this.
http://i413.photobucket.com/albums/pp218/Arcelius/Drawings/HmmNaofinish.jpg

[Wyndon]

I've seen that background! Silk Road? FlyFF? Shaiya?

WHERE!

[mjre_shadow]

i know it has existed because months ago i had found exactly what i described on a site, unfortunately returning to it within the past few weeks, the entire private RO server it had been on is gone :(

[Naoki]

I've seen that background! Silk Road? FlyFF? Shaiya?

WHERE!

Someone's been on the free MMOs...

That background is one south of pront.

[Wyndon]

Duh. I should start playing video games or something. I don't play any games anymore and now I have no video game knowledge :(

Still, cute pictyoor. I'll take your hand :D

[add30seconds]

PICTUREHeheh. I enjoy the expression on Nills. He looks very much like I imagine him to.

I look really slutty...


Good depiction.

[dyreth]

Heheh. I enjoy the expression on Nills. He looks very much like I imagine him to.

hahaaha soo true..

[m123456]

hahaaha soo true..

I don't even really drink!

[Grieverjoe]

PICTURE HERE.


Dude, man. That is awesome. Why couldn't the picture you drew for me look this good? :D

[Lomilmalinde]

Picture

Awww, Nao! It's so cuuuute! ^_^ *hearts*

[Giever]

Dude, man. That is awesome. Why couldn't the picture you drew for me look this good? :D

Because it wasn't of Naoki. =P (I'd take his hand too~<3)

[Grieverjoe]

Because it wasn't of Naoki. =P (I'd take his hand too~<3)

It had Naoki IN it. Does that count?

[Naoki]

...
I...liked the picture I drew you.

/sob

[Seil]

Deviant Art has a few pics we could use, provided we ask for permission, I guess.

[Grieverjoe]

WIP update. Beta inking done. Next in line is Aanaren. Like I said before, hands are not my forte. And I'm not too happy with the face... Comments?

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/beta.jpg

[Raem]

Hands look fine to me Lion, the face...looks almost, too small? I don't know, maybe it's the angle of the hat. Other then that, looks awesome.

[DraconisMaster]

The face looks about right relative to the body, it's just that the hat is GINORMOUS. So it looks small relative to the hat.

The hands seem fine though, as does the rest of it.

[Grieverjoe]

Hat... that's what it was. Yeah, the hat is a tad bit too big. Oh well. Aanaren is next!

[Grieverjoe]

WIP update and holy crap! Aanaren didn't take as long as I thought she would.
However...

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/aana.jpg

...if I have to draw another female sniper's shorts, I will shoot myself and whoever requests it. Dammit, Aanaren! Why couldn't you play a class that has non-crazy-and-hard-to-draw shorts? Like a Novice! Or an Assassin! They don't wear shorts...
Next and last one of the females inking is Selfi before I start coloring them. Then I have to start on the males, but I think I'm gonna try something different for the males.

[Aanaren]

Thanks Lion it looks great! (Sorry about the shorts XD)

[profluj]

Lion, you should draw a clown with a feather beret on :)
Or like something along that nature :)

[Naoki]

Ummmm...

So who would it be?
Dorian Gray?

Tis the only Clown in my heart.

[profluj]

Well, since you aren't drawing it. You don't matter Nao.
At all.

[ErhobenenWolf]

Methinks Nao should draw it. While his prof picture is good, it'd be nice to see Nao-drawings of something else (oh, and something other than my sniper too). :p

Oh, Nao drawings for those interested
http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h209/bandgeek1808/baphojr.jpg

http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h209/bandgeek1808/naoki_art_thread.jpg

I have more, but no scanner to scan them with.

[Flarecobra]

Lion, you should draw a clown with a feather beret on :)
Or like something along that nature :)

So you're asking him to draw Kefka?

[Grieverjoe]

I'd TOTALLY draw Kefka and submit him for a RaiRO loading screen!

[Naoki]

Ew old drawings. :<

I could sketch it but I'd take me awhile to color it.

[Raem]

Darigon has generously donated several of his old drawings to the server. I just gotta toss together some info on them. Preview!

http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/cc282/SilverNoble/WoETimes.jpg

[Grieverjoe]

Dude, that looks awesome, man. I finally finished the last inking of the female ones. Sorry it took so long. I've been working 14-hour days all this past week.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/selfi.jpg

Not happy with the face... :/ But you know me! Hopefully will start coloring tomorrow.

[Grieverjoe]

Yes indeed, peoples, I am still alive and kicking and still working on the female loading screen. A few years ago, I promised myself that I wouldn't force myself to do anything I love when I wasn't feeling it, because eventually, I would stop loving it, hence the delay, but things are starting to look up and hopefully, these will be done soon (because I sure as hell want them to be done.) So, without further ado, here's the finished version of Lomi, my wife, and the first female of the loading screen.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/lomi1.jpg

You guys wanna see something cool?

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/lomi2.jpg

[Grieverjoe]

Two down, three to go. Erika here.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/erika-1.jpg

"Is this guy STILL working on these drawings!?"

Yep. Still at it. Next one up will be Farmslave Beta. Base coloring done, needs shading.

[Flarecobra]

You know, the subued one would work well with that pic of Erika.

[Wyndon]

yo Griever, sick drawings.

Suggestion. On the Lomi with all the white, put a yellow gun-shot firing burst around the gun. That way, it'll look like all the white is coming from the bullet being fired and it'll look that much sicker :)

[Grieverjoe]

Wooo. Two to go.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/beta-1.jpg

Also, I think I might redo the Selfi one. Not too happy with it, after all.
Next one is Aanaren.

[Grieverjoe]

Yaaaaay, one more to go.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/aana-1.jpg

Can you tell I'm getting a little burned-out? Selfi's is next and last (FINALLY!), then, the wife and I are taking a two week vacation. When I get back, I'll finish the other ones I have in mind. Hopefully, Raem won't kill me for taking my sweet-ass time.

EDIT: The original JPEG is 600x1491. Photobucket likes to resize mah stuffs.

[Adrian Faust]

Hopefully, Raem won't kill me for taking my sweet ass-time.




=D

[The Mystical One]

It's cool.

Take the time you need. Having a patcher means these can go in anytime, really.

[Flarecobra]

Like they say: You cannot rush art.

[Lomilmalinde]

Like they say: You cannot rush art.

Amen! =o

[Magni]

People will call anything art, rushed or not, nowadays.

[Giever]

And I'm okay with that. Anyway let's not try and define art in this thread. =o

Nice coloring, Lion! :D

[Grieverjoe]

Nice coloring, Lion! :D

Well, I'm glad you like my big coloring of ruin, Strago. Coloring ain't my forte...
neither are hands and backgrounds...

[Aanaren]

Looks awesome Lion. Thanks! :D

[2nnoyconfuse]

So much so that you made it your avatar, which, in small size, doesn't do the picture justice :D

Amazing lion. (Lion, not the animal--yes I don't feel like going back and editing it to make it capitalized, despite that I am editing it now to type this message)

Erika and Aanaren seem to tie in vibrancy of colors.
Beta's kinda muted...muted bluuuuuue :)
Selfish remains...

[Grieverjoe]

In keeping with the "Manly Acolyte" idea, here's a sneak preview/tease of the next loading screen (when we get back from vacation).
I will have Selfi and the loading screen done by this weekend. Promise!

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/acos.jpg

[Grieverjoe]

Yaaaaaaay, finally done!

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/selfi-1.jpg

Now, I gotta put them all together, throw in a catchy phrase, blahblahblah. Will probably do that tomorrow. For now, though... lazyness.

[Grieverjoe]

OMGWTFLOLBBQ~

I r done with this.

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/load2-1.jpg

I'm going on break (this Sunday).

By the way, I still have the original if the mods suggest changes or whatever. I also have the original character pictures, if any of the character owners would like them. Jes lemme know.
Peace!

[dyreth]

why did you allow nills into the girls of rairo anyways?

[Adrian Faust]

It's NILLS.

[Grieverjoe]

why did you allow nills into the girls of rairo anyways?

Because he posted requesting for his female character to be added. And also, because it's NILLS.

[younglink27]

Woo! I'm a girl of RaiRO :D

[spazzmistic]

i-i'm a girl of RaiRO ;__;

[Xonix]

I'm a girl of RaiRO .-.

[k1912000]

Apparently Nills is a bigger girl (i.e. more feminine)? :O

[Lomilmalinde]

Actually, it's more like "Nills responded first with a female character when Lion asked for them"
<_<
Yeah, there's other 'girls of RaiRO' but where were they when he was asking for characters to draw? HMMMM?

:P

[younglink27]

Exactly! I just said either Nills or FSB was fine, and it turned out more guys responded ^^

[Dular]

So I think a month is plenty rest time.

MAKE BARTRE FIRST!

[AngelicSlayer]

I'm a girl of RaiRO .-.

i-i'm a girl of RaiRO ;__;

Thirded. So do it.

[Raelin]

Hahaha. I'd love to be in a picture, but I think it's quite a bit of work. @_@ I would never have the patience to do one, let alone two. But hey, if you ever decide to make another in the future... Well, I'd love it. -grin-

[Grieverjoe]

I should start charging for this...

...and, I haven't worked on ANYTHING lately (let alone be online) because of a plethora of new videogames (namely, Saints Row 2. Hella fun. Walk around tazering people or throwing them off buildings and my wife looks at me all weird when I start laughing maniacally. Try it!) and my soul-crushing job (AKA, still in the Marines)

So, sue me!

...or pay me to do your drawings. Preferably the latter...

[Flarecobra]

Or ask Lomi to do one. ;)

[Lomilmalinde]

*eyes list of 'to-do' drawings that is 15-16 requests long* >__>
Good luck with that!

[Grieverjoe]

MAKE BARTRE FIRST!

Dun really know if this falls under "loading screen" (could be used for one later, I guess). but what the hell...

http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm220/Grieverjoe/bartre.jpg

[Dular]

Oh my god...

Miss Congeniality 2! My dreams have come true!

Oh, and the drawing is pretty good I guess.
Ho damn I'm finally drawn, and its freaking awesome. You are stupid awesome matey.

[Grieverjoe]

Okay, so... gonna start working on the males loading screen. The lineup was

Bartre
Victus
Lion
Seil
Epic Wizard

I have screenshots of everybody (give me a new one if you'd like current equips displayed) but Epic Wizard hasn't given me a screenshot. Is he still around? I feel like I've been gone for too long. If I don't get a screenshot in two days, I'll reopen one slot for the males.

[Victus]

http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m226/AuronTheUnsent/screenRaiRO053.jpg
Now that I have the most bad-ass looking hat in the game.

[Flarecobra]

I think he left.

[Whomper]

If he is gone, might I fill in on my stalker?

[Fye]

Fine D: I'll get off my butt and do something. I need names, and not people who are already or going to be drawn

[SteelBladeOfDarkness]

what about souless >>;;

[Naoki]

Fine D: I'll get off my butt and do something. I need names, and not people who are already or going to be drawn

Let's have some nice VelvetxSelece :D

[Flarecobra]

How about Angelic/Waffles?

[Fye]

I always get the girlxgirl :x

[Naoki]

I always get the girlxgirl :x
Cause you're good at it!

Well I guess Velvet wouldn't be a good choice anyway, I already did a (decent?) Naoki loading screen and Velvet is one of my characters. Don't need multiple me loading screens! @_@

But... I'd still want the drawing anyway. :D

[The Mystical One]

Once I have my 300th hat, someone should draw me sitting in a pile of all my hats.

Yes, I know I'm already in a loading screen.

[Skyshot]

Never too late for me, is it?

http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/9207/loadingscreen.jpg

[k1912000]

Psst. Selece. Draw my wizard and prof! Thats boyxgirl so it should be acceptable, no?

[Wonkar]

Or, draw my wizard and Isaac's prof!

(Probably playing chess or something, anything else would be wierd!)

[vesperity]

maybe if they were playing wizard chess.

you should draw vesp and a panda.

I also read isaac's contribution as "boxygirl" and was confused.

[Predestin]

I always get the girlxgirl :x

Well you know, there was this one time, that Jadeis x Selece really did happen.

[Grieverjoe]

Whomper wins. Get me a screenie.
