Hello!
I've been lurking in this forum for a while, so I might as well introduce myself. I've played Nexus for a while as a warrior. I'm that guy who people often mistake as a rogue because of the Hanfu garb. My registration expired yesterday, and I have finals soon. Therefore I think it's best to NOT renew til finals are over. In the meantime, I browse Nexusforums, and I just love the art shown here. <3
I notice that there are just so many characters that are iconic, be it in their appearance, personality or both...
I want to try drawing them, so here goes nothing. First up is Winder. I hope it's not against Barbarian law to draw them or anything.
We all know him as that white-haired elder with the dread platemail and dry wit. First thing that came to my mind is that he shouldn't be pretty (sorry, Mhul), but battle-scarred and tough. I improvised a bit on the platemail, but haven't designed his greaves (feet armor). I'll do his fullbody pic soon...
Please give feedback! I will appreciate it. Except, uh, coloring. I have very little experience in that ( ._.)
The artwork is great, if only Winder could live up to his drawing! (Sorry had to pick on Winder)
What medium are you using? Looks almost like sharpie or pen or I'm completely blind.
Very realistic, a different spin on the nexus chars.
Very good job!
-Beffy
Oh wow, very awesome. I'm sure Winder will squeal (in an ever-so-manly way of course) when he sees this!
Very nice! As much as I like the cartoon-ey stuff, this is a nice version too.
Very nice work. If I was still working on Stat Addict i'd be begging you for an artistic rendering. You do a good job of catching attitude in your drawing.
I am impressed! I have a more cartoony version of myself drawn by Killeh and I'll post that here for all to see.
The one thing I would say though, is that the real Winder has legs and doesn't float in the air from his armor! Which you realize yourself.
But in the great words of mug: "i smile here."
When this picture was drawn, it was back when I was in black platemail and black hair (like 18 months ago?)
Here is all the other Winder stuff:

Winder Avatar (Made by me):
Mug's mug entry (picture Made by me):
Postcard for mug (picture Made by me):
Look how happy Hooje is! (And yes, it is unbelievably Photoshopped)
Other postcard shows Barbarian circle, which I am not going to reveal unless it wins the contest.
Oh, and I almost forgot about this, I made it for Darkbrood:
DB Avatar:
AHAHA, HOOJE REALLY DID KISS WINDER! Wow.
SHAME ON HOOJE.
The drawing is great but that attitude seems to reflect Crumble way more than Winder.
Maybe we just see Winder in a different way.
I see him with a huge smile on his face 24/7, with puffy cheeks.
*Shrug*
Oh, I just realized something about the very shmexy picture that you drew Garr.
It looks similar to Arthas in Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.
Except for being a lot sexier than you ever will be.
That is NOT Winder. He's neither TOWNIE~!'ing you as you read the boards nor sticking his tongue out at you.
EDIT:

Fixed Fear my MSPaint skills!
The original drawing looked great,
But Dannicus was more accurate.
Glad you liked it, Winder. Sorry the fullbody pic took so long. College, you know how it is
I played Warcraft III, but I never saw that pic... I like their design, but not the massive limbs part >_>
Wow, you really good garr
I wonder if you could... draw me XD
I'd praise you if you drew ANYBODY else besides Winder =p
Sorry that pic just look so OOC, it actually makes him look tough and something to be afraid of LOL.
Yan, I fixed all that, didn't you see?
Yeah, that was pretty funny.
i lol'd in this thread
Welllll, I'm not iconic... but I love the drawings and no one will ever draw me!
Unless..... YOU are awesome enough too. ;-)
i was gonna say how it reminded me a lot of warcraft...but seems someone beat me to it
else, all i gotta say is " ....................................."
*cries* How come Winder gets a portrait of himself ((all be it very inaccurate too)) over anybody else?
But still, very well done Garr. You actually make Winder look like he should be taken seriously.
Psh, stabme got pwnt.
Get on battle.net so I can keel you, sucka. Haha.
Ahahah
I AM ICONIC IN MY OWN WAY.
Nah, just need to practice coloring.
Wow, thats really good Garr. Very differnt then what we usally see here.
I am impressed. The picture you drew of yourself looks excellent.
Garr what program do you use to draw your stuff? Do you scan it first or you drew straight on your computer?
hey are those and1's youre sporting?
This isn't related to Nexus in any way... but I spent some time on it, and I would like feedback if possible:
Bigger version: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/57875131/
It's from Berserk, btw. Anyone read it? Epic stuff.
Apologies in advance if it's considered off-topic >_>
LostKingdom's current Primogeness, BellaTiAmo
She's really nice : D
Wow, Bella is very, very purdy.
You're very good, Garr. Nice drawings
Agreed!
Wow.
Makes me want to get one of your drawings done on ShuZu, haha.
Great work man, seriously.
Romanov has a good point though!
Garr draw me~! I'll be your best friend.
True, I am a bit late, Miss.
But my post is valid afterall, my number of days late were smaller than yours.
Very nice work.
sup NF
Me? I'm soloing Horse boss
(lie)
I haven't drawn in a while, so here's a quick sketch
IT CAPTURES THE INTENSITY IF YOUR RAGE.
AWESOME!
Draw ijimeru with her KALLALATAR yessssssss -foams-
Hahaha.. I love it. Horse boss is pretty awesome, too.
Makes me want to draw again too! <3
That's pretty epic actually.
You should make a fan comic.
Outstanding. Good job, Garr!!
Dude, you're pretty damn good. Do more.
Garr, go fill out an application for artist at blizzard. I mean hell, you're name is the name of a boss in WoW, dunno whether or not you know this. Plus you're -really- good. And I am serious.
Agreed. Definitely one of the impressive talents here.
Great work Garr, it's all really good looking!
I lawl at the rest though. Lawl.
Haha thanks guys <3
If you already have 14 fox hunt wins and all trials done
You'll probably look like this too
This one's for all the fox hunters out there
(It used to be a lot harder when you have to win TWO matches every hunt, remember?)
Mupa!
Color practice; I need to do more
I think I was still a newb when Yieta got turned into a tree.. but I thought Mupa was a pretty cool villain
Garr, that is awesome
I have fallen in love with your amazing art. ;_;
Do Yieta with her paints next! xD
Make something for the top section of stataddict while yer at it
You know I try not to blow peoples ego up whenever they post artwork, because they all know they're good -- but you're like really, really good.
I bet you could get Kru to feature your artwork on the NexusTK site, you should definitely ask them about it. Whenever I get some NTK money, if you're willing, I'd pay for a drawing if you ever got bored one day.
-Gorg
You should color the Winder picture you did awhile ago
I had always pictured Mupa with timeless beauty, but that's great man.
The hidden talents of those around you eh?
Well done, very impressive.
From start to finish, about how long does it take for you to complete a drawing?
Very nice, you have a great skill!
Sorry for the late reply, been busy (irl and in Nexus; getting sa), but thanks guys!
I dunno about going to mug/kru about the artwork though, I'm really bad with deadlines and stuff =P
gerdi: I take like 2 hour-ish to complete a lineart (black and white). Since I haven't colored a lot, coloring usually takes another 2-3 hours (lame), not to mention if I have to draw a background (also lame).
oh and thanks for the help last night with Nngh'Zan's council, hehe
You should im sure they would be understanding. I would also like to see that Winder one colored, looks really good.
Wowie kazowie~
More Garr art please... I'll avoid the obvious request (PLZ DRAW SEFEROTH OMGZZZZZ!!!), and say..... you should draw SilentS and DarkMaverick fighting! Or maybe an epic Spy duel of Misled vs. Interstate! =P
Do you do comissions? I will pay swell!!
^ I don't think he has the Eldritch gene ready.
Garr, nice drawings
Love the Mupa xixi.......
Wow, it's been more than a year since I had the urge to draw Nexus characters... but I haven't played in forever either.
Anyway, I wanted to draw a female Rogue, and the first one to come in mind is Yamiko's character model. I don't think she plays anymore though.
I think it would bother most people that these ladies would walk around carrying big knives/swords. But I find it sexy
My take on a Blood. The backwards hand guard on the original doesn't make any sense :\
Wow! love your art.
yamiko does still play though.
you should show her the picture.
Great work Garr! I cant wait to see more.
