Cave Story FanArt

Torokokins, please never stop drawing. let me be the first to say you're just a natural at it. And on the topic of the length of their garments, I think it varies on the character. Like look here:

King and Sue's sweater's go all the way down their legs, but Jacks and Toroko's (from her sprite) don't but it's obviously not treated as taboo. I think with furry/animal characters, they can be usually shown without any garments without anyone considering it nudity or anything.

 

BUT THIS IS ABOUT ME AND MY PREFERENCES, SINCE THAT IS WHAT MATTERS.
You're right though, Yakkers, although it is up to Torokokins to draw however he or she wants. Maybe not everyone else will find Toroko's plain crotch as disconcerting as I do.
As for that thar picture, King appears to be wearing a cape, and his purple sweater is concealed, proving that Pixel holds no high regard for artistic consistency.

 

Nudity in regards to the lower regions is obviously not taboo for Mimigas. This is a different species and culture after all. Only humans have taboos against nudity on our world, so why expect other sentient species to follow suit?

1. What sweater?
2. King always had the cape/cloak.

 

my fucking sharpie's running out of ink

btw, aaaaaa crazy toroko

I kind of messed up Quote's arms, but that shouldn't be much of a problem.

This is quite lulzy, I like it. lol

Here's what I drew. I know, it's pretty sad. But hey, it's my first time drawing these characters. So ablaragh to you.

Click, if you wish to die.

And no, the fatass misery did not take 5 minutes, I actually have no idea how long it took me, I wasn't really specific during my sentence.

Humans are also the only sentient species. Coincidence?

It looks like a purple sweater to me.

Smart people protect their most prized organs as opposed to letting them scrape on the ground whenever they fall. A more plausible explanation is that they already have fur down there.

 

Think what you want, as far as the sprites go, between their legs (er... feet), there's a clearly a gap of white there.

Well, if you want to follow the game sprites, consider this: 1) The Mimigas' legs look more like those of rabbits than humans, and 2) All of the Village Mimigas' clothes end two pixels above the ground on their sprites. Yes, I am a bit of a prude.

Heh. BTW, Qoute's arms seem fine, but he looks kinda chubby.

Haha, that's pretty good. Sue's all like "DAMMIT STOP POINTING AT EVERYONE ALL THE TIME!"

If you fixed Jack's legs that would be a nearly perfect drawing. Except, what is that guy up there holding? A... magic wand?

If I wanted to copy the game sprites, ONLY, then 1) all of the Mimiga would have similar looking clothing, 2) guns would look like Tetris shapes, and 3) King would look like he's wearing a turtleneck. Turtlenecks do not seem like the kind of clothing a warrior not living in luxury conditions would wear. I'd say King would wear a raggedy cloak, such as the one in Pixel's illustrations.

Also, I was referring to the sprites as a little backup that their clothes aren't that "goddamn short." I'm not relying solely on the sprites to portray the characters.

Check my last grouping of drawings (not the sprites), I even tried to draw King in a cloak (and failed miserably).

True.

Well, by "goddamn short", I was referring to your drawing, not the sprites. (Am I not getting something here?)

Check my last grouping of drawings (not the sprites), I even tried to draw King in a cloak (and failed miserably).

Not that miserably, though it looked more like a coat. A badass coat, for that matter.

 

I always imagined King wearing a sweater, but a long baggy robe-like one.

 

If you're going to draw King, don't forget about his sword. It's his defining characteristic. It's like, "Yeah, whatever, he's number one, he's bitchy about stuff, snore, OMFG HE HAS A SWORD OMFG HE DIED." But I don't think it's a big-ass Cloud-type mo fo sword, it's an actually useful one.

 

Agreed. His sword is what makes him badass, which is probably why Jack always has his finger pointing. He's jealous of King having a weapon so he pretends he has a gun to make himself feel important.

Heh. *gives Yakkers a cookie* Now someone should draw Jack with a gun.

It's misery again, with a uglier and a manlier touch than before!

 

It's ugly.
Kill yourself.

If you have nothing nice to say, remain silent. It's a good rule in general.

Jackalope listen up, obviously sitting on your ass hasn't helped your art skills much, so here are some pointers

1. Learn perspective. Balrog looks dumb in this.

2. "Watercolor" does not mean "let the paint run outside the lines".

3. Look at real things before you try to draw them. Quote's gun looks like a water pistol or something and every person you draw looks like they have a balloon for a head, and some other problems I won't bother to point out. Also, look at anatomy tutorials

This is not constructive criticism. It's just plain criticism: "your art is bad and this is why". Constructive criticism would also add "but you did this and this well".

That said, it's at least better than Schokobecher's comment.

Okay, here's my respect:

LEARN TO DRAW

This is not respect.

Ooh, these look quite nice!

They're not goddamn short :\

They really are quite short; I would consider the Mimigas to generally wear something like a "tunic", which is like a shirt that comes down almost to the knees.

But that's just me.

I wasn't saying you should show genitalia, I'm saying you should make the shirt longer so that the groin is covered up. That's what it looks like to me in Cave Story. I think it will look awkward if all the Mimigas in your movie look like they should have their junk hanging out, but they don't. That's like awkward x 2.

Though, this assumes that Mimigas are anatomically arranged in the same way as humans. While that's likely, it's not certain.

Nudity in regards to the lower regions is obviously not taboo for Mimigas. This is a different species and culture after all. Only humans have taboos against nudity on our world, so why expect other sentient species to follow suit?

And not all humans at that. Only the Americans and the British, really. Well, others too, but mainly the Americans and the British. Oh, and the Canadians. Mustn't forget them.

Humans are also the only sentient species. Coincidence?

Yes, it is a coincidence. As I said above, nudity taboos are not even universal amongst humans.

 

Oh, and the Canadians. Mustn't forget them.

*Streaks by*
Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!~

 

Well, I doubt anyone would forget their own country, would they?
