    Well that's a nifty little trick, thanks for explaining

    And I'm just gonna throw out a wild guess here: you're quite fond of the color purple. Am I right?

    I made a drow based off of my most recent character. He's from a Pathfinder campaign I've linked to the deviantart page I have him posted on if anybody would like to read about him.

    Tolkien himself claimed the opposite:
    'Orc is not an English word. It occurs in one or two places but is usually translated goblin (or hobgoblin for the larger kinds). Orc is the hobbits' form of the name given at that time to these creatures.'
    In at least one of the LotR appendices he also claims they are the same thing, and that 'Orc' is basically what Rohan and other people who use that language call them. The larger orcs are the Uruks, and Treebeard even wonders at one point whether or not Saruman's Uruk-hai were "Improved" or actually some cross of men and orcs (since Saruman's are of a different breed, if I recall, made specifically by him). Sauron used the Uruks of mordor to conquer Osgiliath prior to when the story takes place, hence why it's all busted up already. Mordor also had the superior trolls called the Olog-Hai.

    I have a friend who is a bit of a lore-nut when it comes to these things, and I've been sort of forced to learn it.

    In either case, goblins and orcs are awesome.

    Happy Halloween everybody, I hope you all had fun this evening I dressed as Mr. Hyde and took my nephews Spiderman and Spiderman trick-or-treating.

    Also, I'm in a bit of a pickle:
    Early next month (the seventh), I have a really good friend of mine coming over. Her and I both have strong feelings for one another and I have very little money so I'm going to make an OotS picture for her - romantic, lovey-dovey, etc. - as a gift. I'm wanting to either make a picture of us hugging or me kissing her upon the cheek and... I don't know how to go about it. Have any of you fine people made something doing either of these? I would really appreciate any/all references. Please and thank you

    Well honestly, I find that drawing pictures of two people being close in oots style to be very difficult. Which is a shame, because I rather enjoy the idea of drawing more pictures like that.

    Since I didn't have anything exactly like what you were asking, I whipped this up really quick.

    As you can see, the main issue is the big heads. Once you get two oots people close to each other, their giant heads get in the way before their bodies get very close at all. So either you have to have their bodies far apart, or have their heads overlap. How their faces are drawn is also a limiting factor.

    Difficult or not, I'm still gonna go through with it. She means a lot to me and it's one of the few things I'm actually "good" at doing.

    Hi all, new to the posting and all but I've been lurking in this thread for a little bit and you guys are pretty awesome! Figure I should post up some stuff I've done, many of which I've made by copying styles and stuff I've seen here and elsewhere. My apologies if that's frowned upon. But it wouldn't hurt to get some critiques on how I'm doing.

    I've been getting into this with the long run goal of making a fan comic of the Pathfinder campaign I'm playing in and here's my initial attempt at actually bringing it to life.

    Hm. Looking to the official OOTS art of Haley and Elan kissing may help with artwork or inspiration, too.

    I would make the mouths a little shorter, as they are rather broad right now. Other than that, it's quite good.

    OOTS avatars tend to look better with a consistent, or at least semi-consistent line width. When you are drawing try setting all lines excluding the eyes and detail lines like the cloak to something from 1.2-1.5 px in width.

    That's my policy, at least. There are at least three other posters here who will tell you something different about line width.

    Keep in mind that the forum software only renders the first 120x120 pixels in the upper-left corner of the image. That's why the fox's tail is getting cut off.

    Fennec, if you want to keep the woman about the same size and get the whole fox in the picture, try re-positioning the fox in front of her feet.
    Fennec foxes are so awesome! :D
    Also, you can - and I only just found this out - select everything of her and the fox and export (Ctrl+shift+e) the selection at a size you want. Just change the larger of the two sizes (height and width) down to 120 pixels.
    I'd post up some screen-shots to explain it but at the moment I'm having computer difficulties
