Artist's Comments

Real title should be Go! Go! Golden Jiroo!, but dA is biased against explanation points.

Don't get the title myself, it just totally fits the mood.

Anyway, a drawing of a Jiroo, one of =Triggerd's species. I decided to give him a brown shell as seen in one of his pics. The green sclera was something I decided to add, he had no objections to it, though that may not be official, despite Blank having yellow sclera.

Despite the brown, it turned out looking rather gold to me. Oh well, I like it.

Now it just needs a Michael Jackson song.

....or the theme from Donkey Kong when the ape snatches Pauline.

Didn't I tell you I'd submit nothing but drawings of HIS characters and stuff?

Wonderful.

Jiroo is to =Triggerd

Critiques


:iconleoshi:
Hm, interesting work I see! What an interesting species actually, it's perhaps the first time I have seen a character where their fingers and toes were different colors then their feet or palms. Iiiiinteresting actually.

Right then, first off I should congratulate you for picking a kinetic pose as opposed to a static, flat posture, it makes the character look much more appealing, of course. From this posture and that expression on his face, I estimate that he is similar to that of a confident, able character. A villain, a hero, perhaps just a friendly guy or intimidating bully, that's where more research would need to be done.

Hm, now I noticed that unlike the previous picture where you asked for critique, this one has standard shading, as opposed to cell shading. Was this on purpose I wonder? Anyway, overall your shading is good, the shadows aren't too hard to make sure it's not over dramatic or flat to make it look uninteresting. Now that I look at your work, I notice you actually use black spots to create blank-darn shadows within the shadows, an unusual technique. It is a bit surprising to see, because this is the kind of thing would would expect to find more in cell shading as opposed to standard shading. And while on the topic of shading, I noticed your use of highlights again, especially on his left leg and right shoulder. It makes more sense in this picture more, since skin and flesh is a bit more understandably able to shine back light, and on a different species: who knows? A few highlights have me wondering however, especially those under his left foot, it makes me wonder where their light source is. Still, it's not too jarring and overall well done.

One last thing, his left ear looks angled a bit. Is this to insinuate that he is perhaps moving inward from the right? If no, there don't seem to be other cues the way he is posed that suggest this. It's not too jarring, though again I am curious.

Overall: nicely done, it's nicely posed and nicely shaded.

My first thought when I read the title was of an old pokemon show with a golden sudowoodo.

I'd rather have fun with my friends who care about me,
