I made this thread because I enjoy drawing and thought it would give me some practise. But lately it hasn't been fun anymore.
I don't mind making adjustments here and there on characters because I want people to be happy with their oc. It just gets very time consuming when people constantly have me adjust just about everything, or start from scratch. The worst part is, after all the adjusting, I can tell some still aren't happy with it. I do the best I can by the description I'm given, but I can't go inside peoples' heads to see their ideal visions.
With that, it's mainly been a blast, thanks for the experience, I'll finish the ones I am working on right now, but I am closing. Maybe one day I'll even open this thing again....don't know...

His height is 5'6". He weighs only about 105 lbs. Clothing/Armor: Where the cold climates are he wears a blue parka that has six strands of fur, three are long and the three on top are small to medium sized. On each side where his shoulders are, are three small strands of fur. The parka also has a hood that has fur on the edges. There are also fur on the bottom edges. When it is warm he takes off his parka. Underneath his parka is a blue tunic that's sleeves are short. there is a strap around the waist and about 5 inches of the cloth is sticking out. On each of his hands are a blue glove that doesnt cover his fingers and on his left arm there are white bandages that are wrapping around his arm. His pants are a darker blue and is a little baggy. His shoes are just plain brown boots that cover half of his knee and down. On his back he carries a brown pouch with zigzags to hold his water for waterbending. Weapons: As his weapon he mainly uses his waterbending which he is skilled at, but has more to train to become a master. When is unable to waterbend he uses a small dagger that his father gave him when is was 11. There were two insricption that and one said "Never Give Up" and the other said "Northern Water Tribe". He is mediocre using his dagger. Color doesnt matter. your artwork is really good ;D

Wow, your work is great. I would love if you could do mine.
Name: Ging Lai
Age: 24
Nation: Earth (non-bender)
Occupation: Con Artist
Physical Appearance: Tall and lanky, with sort of pinched, squirrelly features. He thinks about his appearance in terms of disguises and how he can use it to deceive someone. If he isn’t in disguise trying to con a mark, he could care less how he looks. He can often be seen with his finger in his ear. His hair is shaggy and unkempt, although he usually wears a wide brimmed straw hat because it blocks the sun and he can pull it down to nap when he feels like it. He has several disguises, but when he’s not using one of them he usually wears a plain linen shirt and a pale green gi which he rarely bothers to close with a sash. He wears pants and simple shoes with this. He also sometimes wears a dark green high-collared knee-length tunic that buttons down the center with small cloth buttons and loops, also worn with pants. He has some more expensive robes from when he still lived with his family, but rarely wears these, at least not correctly. His clothes are often dirty or stained with food.
Pose: I was thinking of something like Ging Lai leaning against a wall in an alley or a cart about to drive away, or kneeling on the ground playing some kind of dice/gambling game, or looking at food greedily. Those are just suggestions. You can make up a pose if you want.
Expression: He generally wears smug look, unless he's in danger or embarassed or something.
He was invented for an OC contest, not to be drawn, so I'm not particular about how he looks. Make up anything else you want as long as it fits his general personality: an intelligent but very sleazy criminal. (if you don't like all these options and want more detail just let me know)
Color it only if you feel like it. Thanks very much!

Could you possibly do another OC of mine? ^^
Name: Rinash ("Rin" means cold) Age: 15 Nationality: The Souther Water Tribe Gender: female Characteristics: Rinash's hair is short and messy,like an afro, and dark brown with lighter brown streaks.. She keeps a blue and brown band around her forehead to keep it out of her eyes. Her cloths are made of animal skins and scraps from her old clothing., usually brown. Her shirt is brown and goes a little below her belly button, and at they sleeves, which cut off at her shoulder, are bands of blue that hand down. Her pants are baggy, and go up to her ankles. They are brown, but blue on the end at her ankles. Her pants tuck into her boots. Her boots are a very dark shade of brown, almost black, and are very worn. On her back she carries a bow and quiver, and she also has a whale-tooth spear, which she carries like a staff. On waist from a tan hided belt she carries a hunting knife. Her eyes are a deep blue, and her skin is an average color for a water tribe person. Under her eyes she paints blue triangles, which she wears when she hunts or goes into battle. Personality: Rinash is stubborn and arrogant, but shows sympathy to those who show her kindness. She cares for life, unless its gonna be dinner. Her relationship with the rest of her family was strong. Her little brother,Shui, always annoyed her,but she loved him anyway. Her father taught her everything she knows about weapons and trained her as a warrior from every aspect. And her mother always used to bother her about her hair. Rinash isnt very selfconcious, and rather that keeping her hair in the tradnitionala style, she likes it short and messy. Rinash is opomistic at times, but sometimes when it seems all is going bad, she starts to doubt herself. Rinash enjoys her warrior training with her father, and practicing with her bow. Skills: Rinash is a excellent marksman, but not a master, with her bow. She also is skilled with her spear. She rarely uses the knife on her waist, but will only when all other options are gone to her. She isnt a water bender. Past: Rinash had a very close relationship with her family in the tribe. The Fire Navy attacked when she was twelve, and Rinash and the rest of her tribe were separated when Rinash went and tried to fight. Her tribe retreated to the Earth Kingdom in search of refuge, and Rinash was left behind. She doesn't know the exact fate of her people, but she knows they are somewhere in the Earth Kingdom. She refuses to believe that they are dead, and she begins to search for them and travels tp the earth Kingdom in an old canoe that was left behind. It took a long time with just herself rowing an old canoe( about two months) to reach the Earth Kingdom.

I'm not that good at giving detail but I'll do my best:
Name: Kya
Nation: Water Age: 15
Kya is the daughter of Katara and Zuko. She wears her mother's necklace. Her hair color is brown and she likes to put it down a lot to impress the boys. She wears a blue tank top that shows her bellybutton. She wears pants that goes up to her knees, and she wears pink high heels.
Kya hears stories about Aang the Avatar and would one day what him to teach her waterbending. She real likes to impress any new boy that sees her and blushes some times.

I actually finished Kya before I finished Rinash - I'm tryin' my butt off to draw a bow and arrows for her. @ twilight - I don't know if I can bring myself to draw a child prostitute.. Here's the sketch of Kya for princeoffire. You made her sound like she may be a little flirtatious, so I drew her a little bit flirtatious I apologize in advance for the lack of feet, thus pink high heels - ran out of room on the page Click on the bottom right for larger view i90.photobucket.com/albums/k258/angel310_2/girl.jpgKarma! Nice Job! Can you color her for me? If you can draw her with high heels? I love your art work!
