ART WAR | 2D | SHEIK OBAYA | Jètaun

[jetaun]

Im not sure if Im doing this right. Ive never participated in a forum b4.
But, Im super excited about this contest. The posting progress part is very interesting and I love visual development. I just found out about this yesterday so im super late in the game but here it go.

First, MY INTRO.
Name: JèTaun from St. Louis MO
IAMJET.COM
if u like what u see, please follow my TUMBLR where I post DAILY SKETCHES

SHEIK OBAYA : It Takes a Village to Save the World

[jetaun]

This is my Champion.
Name: SHEIK OBAYA

10-12 yo boy
DaVinci like
Body Frame: tall slender, lanky
always holds head up, resting face: spacey. always in his head
carries around journal, makeshift backpack
Dress: dull, plain, maybe wears all one color.

ive seen others post ref sheets so heres where my thoughts are:

first ROUGH sketches. trying to get down my idea.

LEADER: Skills: he has no special powers or extraordinary strength. He is though well rounded in every disciplined and shows exceptional gifts and natural talent for everything he touches.
The world needs saving and those who are best equipped to help have gravitated towards him. now, meet his Entourage.

nice drawings, I like how you have an extensive reference sheet; great idea.

[jetaun]

bear with me while I figure out the appropriate format for these forums. those imgs were huge lol.

ok, heres the 2nd in command.

2nd: The Brawn

large fellow. Was thinking he would b tactically skilled until I decided on a Half-Ogre creature. SHEIK will b a tactical prodigy since it fits his bill.
back to the 2nd. Brute. think, The Dog not The Mountain.

3RD: THE BLACKSMITH

The Blacksmith:
He manifests all the Champions innovative ideas from his sketchbook.
SKILL: other than being a skilled craftsman, he is also a skilled swordsman.

I had a bit of time thinking what I wanted this guy to look like. I kind of just drew without much pre thought. All I knew is that I wanted him to b a yound man. maybe early to mid twenties. Lean and muscular build. Grimey and unkept. maybe hes a peasant. crude attitude on the outside but all the makings of a noble knight on the inside.

4TH: THE WITCH

the first sketch

---

Knowlegde in magic, spells, sorcery.
super sexy, uber sexual.
She controls 5TH: THE BEAST.
she is invisible to others while inside THE BEAST.
the look I was thinking flamboyant. Thin waist thick thick thighs. think Chris Sanders. walks as if on air. on her toes.
Her Hair. picture this: white paint on upper half of face. hair is very long. white from scalp and gradients to bluish jet black. flows like water.

5th: THE BEAST

I dont have any refs or sketches for this one yet. basically, the idea is that, this is a wooden/ iron robot like massive creature that was thought of by THE CHAMPION, and manifested by THE BLACKSMITH, animated by THE WITCH.
think Baymax. the intent is to b a weapon.
