Request from mev186;

"Hello All, New around here. Thought I'd post up a request for a Sith Character I have in mind. His name is Darth Mainyu. He lives within the Old Republic era, Around the time of the new MMO that is in development. Being a Sith Lord, He is evil that much is clear. But He's also an outcast, Having spoken out against the Empire making a deal with the Republic, instead of vanquishing them once and for all. For his opinion, He was exiled to the world of Lehon (Called the Unknown world in KOTOR, He currently lives in the old Rakatan Temple). Because all of this, He has grown more Bitter, and Hostile. Albeit with a undercurrent of loneliness.

He wears a robe simmilar in style to Darth Nihilus, Meaning it goes all the way up over his head and squares off at the top. Other than that, His face is painted to resemble a Skull, something to inspire fear to those who look upon him. To put it another way, He looks like a cross between Darth Nihilus and Mayuri Kurotsuchi from Bleach (Except the colors on his Face are inverted)"

Neato! I Like His expression, I always imagine him having Long Flowing Black Robes. Never thought to see him in his "War Armor". Also liked the little details you put in, (ie the Way the top part is all bent out of shape. and the Hair sticking out ) Keep up the Good Work! ^_^

Mercy

Cheers! Glad you like him, man!

I was looking at a more tattered/flowing robe design, but I figure it would have made him look TOO much like Nihilus. Once the colour goes on I think the face paint will look better too - more noticeable. I'm thinking about lighting from above, so much of him will be thrown into shadow, but we'll see what happens...

mev186

Sweet, I was thinking, what you could do, If you're looking for the tattered/Flowing Robe thing, is maybe have him wearing the robe, perhaps covering his arms, but have it open slightly to reveal the armor he has on now underneath. anyway Just a thought ^_^ Can't wait to see what you do with him!

Mercy

I think it would be a bit of a pain to re-draw it again at this point, sorry mate.

However, I do have the first colour & tone version up. I think this might be about done...

mev186

Wow, Great Job! I really liked the Lighting! Oh and Don't worry about it, this is just fine. Oh and If you want to try and put Mainyu in other please feel free. Perhaps, a scene where he's working on his alchemy, Or Practicing his saber. Anyway, Just a thought. And Thank you, Mercy ^_^

Mercy

Wow, that was quick Mev!

Glad you like him. I might have a bit of a scribble and see if there's any other pictures or scenes I could turn out for him. I'll post again if I get anything interesting!

I like the lighting and shading, especially on his hood and in the background. Really good stuff!

Mercy

Ooh, I've come across the request for Triss, and I've been rather enjoying reading through the story that you guys have been writing together!
So, here's my impression of the moment in the hall when Mainyu steps up behind Triss to lend her his protection against the Sith facing her. A really interesting scene, I felt, tempered with unsaid impressions for them both...

Mercy

New picture of Triss up.

Here's the scene;
(Trisskar - do let me know if you'd prefer I not copy this here and I'll take it down, k?)

“Of course, there's a lot of nasty people here at the academy...you have to watch out for yourself, but if you Kiss me, then we will protect you”

Triss again smiled and leaned forward

“Oh I see...that is very sweet of you” Triss lifted her arms up, her hand around the back of his neck as she leaned in closer, puckering up her soft lips inviting him in for a kiss. She could hear the creeps chuckling at their victory as he shifted a couple inches more to take his reward

Triss backed her head away and pulled downwards. The pale boy's face landing smack into her steaming bowl of soup. He struggled, his arm's pounding into the table as he fought to free himself, but Triss had placed all her weight on the boys neck to keep him down while she shouted, drawing the eyes and attention of the patrons around her

“Touch me again and I swear I'll kill you!”

Trisskar

Sweet!! I can't wait to see more!!

I posted up a character sheet in Trisskar's Wiki page. It has a picture of her new companion near the bottom of it :) I would love to see a picture of Triss with Tail's sometime ^_^

Out of the two you have done so far, I really like the makeup and design of the first Triss (with Mainyu) alot, she looks very...plain, simple, & free spirited :) ((I have that one on my desktop lol))

Mercy

Hey Triss, having some trouble seeing the pictures on your wiki page!
I don't know if I've done something wrong but they're not showing up...

Mercy

Hey, got this resolving fine - Tails is so cute!
I just can't seem to get pictures to show up on the main page (I'm still going straight there from the link you put up on the request page).
Maybe it's me...

Mercy

Yay! That works fine - I guess I must have had a weird link or something. Sorry to be a pain!

Trisskar

no problem ^_^ That is more then likely my fault :-p When i first started learning how to use a wiki, i had put Trisskars information down on MY profile page instead of her own. Mainyu corrected me and now she has her own spot :-p lol

Mercy

Ah, fair enough!
Hey - I've stumbled across a picture I did a while ago and I suddenly thought how much she looked like a very young Triss living on the streets of Taris.
Have a look HERE and see what you think!

Trisskar

Awwwww!!! How Kyoot!!! You don't mind if I add that to the wiki do you?

I love it! I wanna bring her home and give her cookies ^_^

Mercy

No worries! That's why I sent you the link!
Glad she can be used as a character, actually!

Mercy

New pic up of an older (18 yr old) Triss;

"Her half sleeves were tied at the wrist with a red cord, the black fabric reach up a few inches above her elbow before tying off with another red cord, leaving her shoulders exposed. Her shirt was short, only covering her subtle breasts leaving her core exposed, skin taught from constant training and toning of muscles. Below her ribs however revealed four inch long gashes, memory wound from her first fight with a Teris Kasi, Her cheek also bearing similar marks. Her pants flared out, practically covering her boots, with her saber clipped on the red threaded black belt wrapped around her waist."

Will post the scene with the finished piece, if that's okay Trisskar?
In this picture she is saluting an opponent before commencing battle.

Trisskar

Sweet ^_^ I love it! I can't wait to see the finished work. And yes, that is just fine ^_^

Could you do one with, and one without the long braid in the back? Not sure if I like, or dislike :-p

Trisskar

Sweet!!! So far so good ^_^ I think I like the Brade alot (Now that I see it in color) I just wasn't sure...im so used to short hair >_<, but it looks real sweet with the picture :) so you can keep it on. In fact, id be happy if you did :)

I love the colors as well, I can't wait to see it with some texture. I also like the background set up the way it is....Very Profile looking ^_^

Keep up the good work as always!

Mercy

Cheers!

The colour pic actually doesn't have the braid in it...
If you want I can put it back in - I've just got it hidden on another layer.
