Description STOKER!!!

I finally picked up the 'courage' to redo my previous failed sketch of Stoker, after watching "Caveat Mentor" (in Finnish dub) on YouTube, today X3 Which pretty much made my day -heck, you never know how happy I was when my friend ~Kaoriu informed me about it
[Though, personally I'd love to hear the original English voice, 'coz I love Peter Strauss' voice His Finnish voice sounds kinda....well, hard to say, but I wasn't at all comfortable with it, to be honest]

Yay, me...I'm pretty much satisfied with it now <3 Though, the right half of his face should be 'shadowed' by the light on his left, but I hated the way it turned out when I shaded it =_=; So I rubbed it off and left it like that (which I personally think, looks much better although that isn't the way it should be -in realism wise)
Even his hair's supposed to be lightly shaded to take off from "Caveat Mentor" (especially that there should be more hightlights from the light on his left, and darker toning on his right from the shadow of his body), but I got completely carried way shading it Oh well...

[Edit:] GAH!! I just realized now, after scanning it, that his eyes are slightly out of porportion T^T

Hope y'all like it

This is a gorgeous sketch and I'm glad you decided to redo it, he's got one hell of a hot bod on him. Plus that smirk on his face makes me smile, wonderful expression and really great anatomy. =3

I'm not really sure I can critique this properly since the style is so vastly different from my own, but I can give it a go. It might take me a while to actually find anything "wrong" with it since I need to familiarize myself with your style a bit more.

To be honest the only problems I can find at this moment are rather minor, sort of nit-picky actually. That would be his arms - how can I say this - his right arm appears to be [for lack of a better word] fatter then the left and his neck looks a bit short, then again I'm used to drawing long and slender necks on my characters, so maybe that's just me. It's kind of hard to tell sometimes.

Geez never try and crit someone when you're tired and sore.

His neck is perfectly fine, his head is slight down (or rather 'chin down') and I did his lower jaw kinda fluffy -and with his bangs covering the outline of his neck (as well as with his arms raised) gives the illusion that the neck is short. His right arm isn't fat, it may seem so because his ears is partially covering the folds of his arms, and by that angle that arm is raised, and with the flat shading I did on it, gives the illusion that his arm is 'fat' or rather more muscle than the other
Anyway, it isn't hard too familiarize my style as it's realism, just like those awsome artist in art books who makes things somehow look real Yours could perhaps be said the same, but the difference is that your style is more animesque while mine is...well...realistic (besides the face/head) All it takes is to study the human anatomy, especially how the muscle 'shift' with every movement (even minor ones) we make

Lol I'm sorry it was late and I thought I was commenting on someone elses artwork, that's never happened before. I keep forgetting I have more then one person in my watch list with similar styles of artwork.

Sorry about that.

Oh, pretty... And you watched finnish dubs again?
Though it's really delightful to watch some series you don't own yourself from the youtube but:
Why doesn't anyone send the original series to that place...?

blackstorm In reply to Silmu [2006-11-23 10:26:56 +0000 UTC]

Well the person who might have all the ol' BMFM eps in english had 'vanished' from YouTube because she carelessly uploaded one of the new series' episode (a couple of days ago), and when Criterion found out, he wave her a warning -and she freaked out and left the site after removing all her videos *sighs and shakes her head*
So I could only turn to those with only finnish dubs *sighs* I've no choice since I desperate wanna see the episodes. *shakes her fist at Disney, whom had the rights to the old series, for not heeding the fans' petition and release the old series in DVD*
Umm... "Why doesn't anyone send the original series to that place...?" What do you mean?

Yup, the finnish dubs are poor but we can always watch them on mute....

You mean "Once Upon A Time On Mars"? There's a finnish dub of the episode in YouTube. I've placed the links to them on my ~Stoker-Shrine 's journal. It may be disappointing that it's in Finnish, but hey, it's better than nothing (it's nice to see some Stoker action)
Anyways, you sure need to try your hand in drawing some BMFM fanart XD The more BMFM fanarts, the merrier <3

Yup! Stoker is the Biker Mice's mentor

Quotes from "Caveat Mentor" :-

Charley : Before you macho, muscle-brained mice beat each other black-and-blue, does anyone care to introduce me?

Modo : *laughs* Oh yeah. Charley Ma'am, that'd be Stoker.

[Stoker, Rimfire, Throttle and Vinnie fighting in the background]

Modo : Stoke was our unit leader in th' Plutarkian Wars. Taught us everything we know 'bout bikin'...

Throttle : ...fighting... *grunt*

Vinnie : ...and...

Charley : Never mind.

Modo : On Mars, when they talk "Baddest Motorjammer", they're talkin' Stoker!

Stoker : Just, Mars? Try the whole galaxy!

Oh and btw, here's a 'dialouge' that my friend, KLCtheBookWorm wrote in her comment -which REALLY crank me up XD

The BookWorm: "Stoker, it's really not safe for you to flex like that. It makes the floor wet."

Stoker: "Huh? How does flexing get the floor wet?" Steps forward and slips into a puddle.

The BookWorm: Hands him a towel. "Drooling fan girls and boys. Need a detailed explanation?"

*nods* And he doesn't sound old at all, either >.<; It's kind of freaky for a guy his age, having such a young voice like that >.>; Plus, his (finnish) voice isn't as charismatic as his original English voice (which is another disappointment)
Anyways, rantings aside, I'm happy you like my sketch of him =^w^= Thanks! ^^

I used to draw tonnes of female figures way back then -but ever since I the 're-birth' of my BMFM obessession, I begun to had a thing for *ahem* male anatomy (which since then causes a huge drawback / side effect when it comes to drawing females now because I draw males so often that I've difficulties in drawing slender female figures now)
