Ah, Shrike. Now there was a guy who had style...

(...Praying that worked alright, and is not too big or distorted).

I was going to colour it fully, but I got as far as the moon and the sky and decided it looked nice enough as it was, so it's a bit more stylistic than I'd intended. I hope it's not too obvious that I kept getting bored whenever I got to the bottom. :)

Steve, I'm in love. Not with you, but with your Krool. I love it. It's great. It's sublime.

Sorry to gush, but something about it really speaks to me. Think it's the colours, which really work well together. Can I nick it to use as a desktop wallpaper?

James - Shrike was gonna be my sketch too! (Well, still will be, watch this space). Glad to see someone else appreciates him, he really was criminally underused. If I remember he only really got one chance to shine, and fluffed it.

It should just be Judge's discretion. A droid's piece could be technically brilliant but otherwise dull and unexciting, but someone else's valiant scribble, while visually poor, could be a brilliantly funny or original take on a character.


For me this'll be a good excuse to get off my arse and start doing some regular drawing again!

Amstor, this could just be the best idea the board's ever had (while I've been here, anyway). I'm literally salivating at the prospect of what this'll throw up. And it really would be cool if some of our droids entered, wouldn't it...? :)

As the proud icon-bearer of the illustrious droid in question, I feel I should be outraged. And I am, but mainly at the piddly little pincer he's got for a hand. How's he going to do any damage with that?!

Crikey. That's bloody awesome! Yet another book to add to the ever-growing 'must buy' list...

Sage advice, we'd all do well to heed it.

Just wanted to say I love Flip's large-handed Death, Bolt's Nick Stone, Wooly's Slaine and Nerd's Dredd. Well done peeps.

No problem - and 'cos I'm feeling so nice, here's a link that actually works! (I hope...)

Larf - Dark Rust bucket? I'll have you know I was built by the premier technicians of the late 21st century.
Any inefficencies or cruddy bits are purely the result of economic cutbacks by devious accountants (and evil wimmin, probably - I was created by Pat Mills, after all).


Bolt - Thanks very much, wanted to know how to do that for ages!


Amstor - Themed art threads sounds like a brilliant idea! Can't wait for the Caballistics one, or the Ukko one, or the ABC warriors one, or the....etc,etc

What I meant, dear Larf, was that I originally thought (wrongly, I now assume) we were supposed to scribble or sketch a character specifically for the purposes of this thread. If we're just posting any old pics we've done of 2k characters, then that's a totally different ball game, and I've lotsa old stuff I could post.


Flip-r  - I use Photobucket (link below). Get an account, load a pic into your album, then copy the URL it gives you below the pic (the top box). Paste that into the 'Optional Image URL' box when you post a message here. Hey presto!

(But it does mean you can only post one pic per post, unless someone knows how to do more...)

Link: Here ya go...

I'm confused, is this a 'post pictures of 2k characters you've drawn' thread, or a 'draw a 2k character and post it here' thread?





(And yes, they are different).

Love the Judge Death, Larf!

Here (web-fu permitting) is a sketch of our supreme Chief Judge Hershey. I excuse this cack-handed abomination on the grounds that it's the first pic I've ever drawn entirely with my new graphics tablet, and I still don't understand the brushes on Pshop.http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Darkjimbo2/Hershey.jpg">

It all depends on what story he would be working on. Don't think much of his Dredd, but he was a master at the dewy-eyed, heaving-bosomed beauties of Tales of Telguuth... Mmmm....
