New Project - Circle of Influence

[Deirdre]

Hey all~ time for a new project! Been doodling a lot lately but no real conformity, so I decided to spark up a new project that's not so out of date! (Come the new year, there may be a male calendar though~)

 

The new project is going to be called 'Circle of Influence'. Basically, each person is going to get a plot of land on the paper (there are thirteen) and I will draw them. Trick is, the characters are going to all be age 13~

 

So, if you want to be a part of it, please provide your character name, your desired 'plot' of land, and a detailed description of their looks and personality at age 13! Don't forget what they'd be wearing, or I reserve the right to make something up!

Spots are all filled up! Check back regularly for updates! for those who signed up, I will ask you personally if I require more information~

If all goes well worry not! I will make an outer circle for those who want to join in!

 

1- Leanna - Fully lined, Base

2- Deirdre - Fully lined, Base

3- Gerik - Fully line, Base

4- Aysun - Base lined

5- Selene - Fully Lined, Base

6- Miya - Fully lined, Base

7- Nanami - Fully Lined, Base

8- Shurin - Fully lined, Base

8- Ariel - Fully Lined, Base

10- Nel - Fully Lined, Base

11- Eva - Fully Lined, Base

12- Manari - Fully Lined, Base

13- Blade - Base Line

 

*Please note this is still a WIP, and I do not often show my raw sketches before they are at a decent level of completion. Please note these are all subject to change.*

Side note about the outer circle;

[spoil]I will be making the outer circle as soon as I'm decently satisfied with the current one. Regardless because of the feedback I've been getting I'm making a waiting list for the outer circle, which will only contain 13 spaces.

Please let me know if you would like a spot reserved.

All spots have been filled! If there is enough demand I will make another circle!

Here's a link to a dirt quick doodle I did of Selene around the age in question:

 

http://i.imgur.com/1KYWo.jpg

 

Rounded cheeks, thin braids in the hair, flower, in a sort of "bored" or "sleepy" kind of expression. Wearing lots of flowy clothes, even though around now she's in pretty good shape since she's getting lots of inadvertent exercise. She's just now starting to discover art around this time and resist her father's urges to follow his footsteps at the Fane. Lots of time spent outdoors, just walking around, playing with the trees. She's very much a loner at this age, which is where her modern personality has its roots.

[Eva]

Eva Ianeira (Kes Zelorius at age 13)

Plot of land #10

 

Description:

Eva was not what most would consider a pretty girl at that age. She was very shy/reserved back then, usually not found without a book within reach, wore glasses (but not those fugly round ones) for reading, no facial tattoo, long blonde hair down to her butt. She'd already, ah, "developed", and she was rather pudgy by that point as well so she might have a bit of a belly. She'd be wearing a more conservative, long-sleeved dress, probably purple and white, and maybe with some kind of floral design on it. No jewelry/accessories of any kind other than the glasses.

[Blade]

Stick me in 5, I guess. And put Gerik next to me in 4 prz. Maybe with Blade's hand reaching over for some funsies.

 

At the age of 13 would be after Blade had been 'abandoned' by his family. Hair cut would be short. He probably looks dirty, ragged, cut up clothes. If you can do a bandana, he might be wearing one. Probably looks really pissy with a serious chip on his shoulder.

[miyasha]

Miya Sha, plot 7.

 

At 13, she was a bundle of barely-contained energy (was only a couple years before she 'joined' her first ship crew), with a lithe/athletic build. Hair would be longer in the back, and she would be holding a short fishing spear/harpoon. She would be mostly developed by then, but not completely. Short-sleeved tunic, shorts, and sandels would have been her attire at that point...she lived by the sea, of course.

[Nel Celestine]

Number 1~! :cheer: Number 1~! :cheer:

 

Nel Celestine would have short purple hair, and wearing a long sleeved shirt and a skirt. Barefoot. She grew up by the sea so it's a little colder there.

[Deirdre]

(For Shurin)

 

Slot 8, black-haired Shurin (Mizune). Scrawny, wiry and angry looking. Dressed in a more ragged version of what he wears now, barefoot. He had just escaped the mines and now taken in by pirates.

[Takanaru]

Plot #9

 

At 13, Nanami had just left her nomadic tribe, her clothing would probably be tattered from travel alone, aswell as the lack of being able to get new clothing other than furs from hunting, her hair would be much longer when she was that age, not having the blonde highlights, only pure black, she would also be carrying her weapon of choice, a spear, that she used both for hunting and fishing, she could have looked slightly feral, but only due to living in the wilderness alone, not due to personality.

[Gerik]

Hmmm, at age 13 Gerik would have been in the orphanage in Gridania, so might've looked scraggly. Probably some hand-me-down looking clothes. I wonder if he would have had short hair or shaved hair back then, I could see him with a sort of short mohawk type thing too... surprise me. His personality would be roughly the same as it is now, so maybe a smirk or grin.

[Lenana]

Plot of land 2.

 

Leanna was young, and just practicing her magic after recently finding out that she could even use magic, so she would frequently cause some kind of trouble with it. (freezing the neighbors cat was NOT out of the question). She was also not the type to talk to others unless they started talking to her first.

 

Her hair was black, and going down to shoulder length. She never used anything to tie it up in a pony tail, and just let it hang down. No curls, either. She also tended to wear some kind of short sleeve shirt and long, cloth pants. Usually her clothes were red or blue. Her shoes would be red if wearing the red outfit, or black/blue if wearing her blue outfit. With anything else, it would be black. She was also kind of thin back then. She had a slight tan, as well.

[Ariel]

Ari at thirteen would have her straight long hair down to her waist, would wear simple long canvas tunics, of cream colors, a rope belt, or a simple belt, and flower crowns/tiaras, no earrings or rings. She would be on the outskirts of La Noscea, and would look slightly tanner than she is in-game. Maybe with a straw hat if now the flower thing. She was at that point a very whimsical kid, very feminine, might carry a satchel or a fishing rod clumsily hanging from the belt, or on her hands.

[Ellie]

Aww I'm too late ;___;

[Aysun]

Darn. Too late. Cute idea.

[Tabrett]

I want to see how this turns out! I like the idea and seeing everyone at that age should be interesting. Too bad Kerr can't play yet. Soon! Soon, he will be in doodles too! ::fist shake::

[Deirdre]

-Sketch Updated-

 

For all those who missed out this round, I will be doing an outer circle, so there will be more chances once this version is done! Thank you for the support!

[Manari]

Oh good. I hope I can be a part of the next one.

[Deirdre]

-Last update of the night!- Sketch updated IN OP

[Tabrett]

It looks like it's going really well! Keep it up, I can't wait to see more!

[Deirdre]

*IMAGE UPDATED IN THE OP*

 

Aysun and Manari, you guys have been bumped in due to sudden space being available! Please post your descripts so I can start on you two, thankies! (edit: sorry Keisuna I saw your post after I told them you are #1 on the next one I promise.)

 

(A few people I do require more information before I can do too much else on their sketches, keeping in mind I still have A LOT of work to do and am just doing it based on what I feel like drawing at that time for what I have in front of me. Please also note I will not be doing weapons!)

 

Things I Require;

 

Blade: I need more of an outfit description please.

Nanami: I need more of an outfit description please.

 

A note on outfits to all: Please give me as much description as you can, if I don't get any than I have to wing it, and you might not like how it nooks. I will do edits on request but I will not be changing clothes constantly. If you request edits, please do them promptly.

[Moltove]

oo, what a fun game! Love to claim a spot for next time :cactuar:

[Manari]

Thank you so much for allowing me into the project, Deir. >^.^<

 

At 13, Manari still looked a bit younger than that. She wouldn't have really started to develop yet, and she'd be pretty short and slender. She has innocent bright green eyes, a very very pale white skin color and bright platinum blonde hair to go along with it. At 13, she would have just really started to get into her training as a huntress in her tribe, learning the bow and the dagger. She would likely be wearing her huntress attire, which would be something like a yukata, only with earth tones. Manari's favorite color is green, so her hunting yukata was green. She would have leather kote on her hands, nothing but her undergarments (hidden under the yukata) on her legs, and a pair of leather sune-ate on her feet.

[Aysun]

Awww~ Cool! I have to go to work, but I'll post when I get home. ^^

[Ellie]

Wait, did I miss it again? What happened? ;___;

[Aysun]

Aysun Demiir, age 13

 

Description:

Aysun was awkward at this age. She's petite as is, but as a thirteen year old, she was just skinny more than anything! She'd be starting to look more mature and developed, but certainly not acting like it, she'd probably be wearing some sort of smirk. Most notably different from her in game today would be her hair. It would be long, easily to her waist, but parted down the middle and braided (something like this but longer, and likely tied at the end with a ribbon), so it would only reach midback. Blonde as ever. Markings on her cheeks, blue/brown eyes, all per usual. Clothing would be pretty bland in style and color, a simple collared shirt (like in game, but.. without the insane amount of bra showing!) and kecks, simple shoes.

[Deirdre]

@ Keisuna: I added two more spots but for some reason I didn't see your post and bumped Manari and Aysun in front of you. I informed them they were next before I saw my error, you are on the top of my list though! I'm sorry!

 

- IMAGE UPDATED IN OP -

 

Things I STILL Require;

 

Blade: I need more of a clothing description, please.

Nanami: I need more of a clothing description, please.

Leanna: I am also struggling with Leanna's clothes, can you please give me a little more description not including colour and more elaborate than 'short sleeved shirt'?

 

If I don't get more description I will base line your character and move on to complete another character who has given me infos! Thanks guys!
