XG Fox Posted July 3, 2005 Author Share Posted July 3, 2005 So something with "Alex" as the suffix? Not necessarily, that was something I just tended to gravitate toward for some reason, that is, until I find better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Krystal's_Lover Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 How about Kyra? (pronounce Kai-rah) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XG Fox Posted July 3, 2005 Author Share Posted July 3, 2005 Ooh, I like that one! I'd like a few more good ones, then I'll decide... I've just run my creativity out for names for the time being... As in, here's my custom names... Koriani Aculeria Fox Quartz (needs a middle name) Fox Arteka Dyroness Lorusari Radius Sokana Avilarice Osheira Velocitar Falcon and the new one: (needs a first name) (needs a middle name) Coraos Also, any ideas for Quartz up there for a middle name?

Ranger One Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 6 custom characters? Wow, not bad. 8) I had a friend help me come up with about 7 when i first started comming up with ideas for a fanfic. 4 of them i was able to come up with on my own, but a lot of the credit for the other 3 goes to him. I'll post their names and all once i get all the pics done (if you thought vulpine, lupine, and avian anthros were hard to draw, you haven't seen anything yet, i've got 3 different ones here that are driving me nuts trying to get the proportions right...) Just thought i'd make a suggestion: if you're having too much trouble comming up with middle names for some of these characters, consider having one or 2 that only have a first and last name. (or even just a first name, kinda like how Nintendo has yet to give Krystal a last name...) Other ways for comming up with names: have the name reflect on some traits of the character (example, one of my characters is going to have the name "Wrench" and he's an amazing mechanic. Another will have the name "Ace," but i'm pretty sure you can figure that one out. ). The names don't exactly HAVE to be flashy or anything. It may look neat with a bunch of flashy names, but sometimes simpler names work as well. And if all else fails, you can go buy one of those books that has a list of over 1000 names in it and what each name means, and use that. (heh, my mom did that for the Sims 2, she got sick of trying to make up names.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XG Fox Posted July 3, 2005 Author Share Posted July 3, 2005 Yeah, that's true... but I like having original names... think they sound cooler. I just thought middle names would be a cool addition, it would open up ideas for some nicknames for each character in my fanfics... I might have to log off... sounds like I've got some serious sh** coming in the way of storms... but I'm staying on as long as possible. I don't know what these storms are going to be like, so if I don't lose power or anything I'll update you when they're gone. I WILL be turning off and unplugging my computer for the duration of it though, I am NOT having this thing destroyed by a power surge! *weather channel shows radar image* Oh SH**!!! This thing's OMFG HUGE!!! From what I see, there's two storm cells west of Kansas City... starting to hear the thunder now from the northern one, the northern one's gonna hit full force, southern cell will pass south, no big deal. They're kind of in this pattern: -------Storm Cell 1 >>>> Kansas City ---Storm Cell 2 The northern one's in front of the southern cell by a bit, that's the one that's gonna pass through my area. Dang, louder thunder now... logging off now, we're not taking any chances with this computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XG Fox Posted July 4, 2005 Author Share Posted July 4, 2005 ^^ storms went fine, no prob. Did have a power surge a little while after unplugging my computer, lucky for me I unplugged it! Because of the storms I got a lot of work on my sixth character done, I think I've decided on a name... Alexandria Kyra Coraos... And let me say, she looks better than that name could EVER hint at... in other words... {cuteness reaching fatal level} I'm starting to think now that this pic here's looking cuter than even Krystal now... this has GOT to be among my top 3 best, if not THE best ever that I've done...

XG Fox Posted July 4, 2005 Author Share Posted July 4, 2005 Okay, here it is! I think it's kicking all ass so far, I'm trying out a new drawing style... but needless to say, I LOVE IT! It's gotta be one of my best ever, even though it's unfinished! And YES, I did that, see the little XG over on the right side? Though it's hard to believe that I did...

Ranger One Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 :lol: Wow, not bad. Sure beats my close-ups on characters. Nice job, even as it is, I give it a 9/10. 8) BTW: Just finished a sketch of my main charcter.... i think i used about 5 different kinds of pencils to do the sketch, and this is the FIRST pic i've done that i'm acctualy happy with as it is. I'm not kidding, i can't find anything i could do differently. I'm going to try to get it onto my PC (along with a few others) later today, then all i need to do is find a site i can post em on. Hmmm... now that I think about it, XG's pic is giving me some ideas for the drawing i need to do of another character of mine.... *grabs some pencils and starts drawing*...

Actually, it's not a close up, just the camera zoomed in (was too lazy to use the scanner), the piece of paper's actually bigger than what you can see. And it's not ending there, I'm gonna do the rest of the body later... just gotta figure out what she'll look like... You need a site to host them?

XG Fox Posted July 5, 2005 Author Share Posted July 5, 2005 I've also got another I'll post VERY SOON, as soon as I finish the shoes and the shirt look... Basically, if you were to look at a picture of me, then look at this picture, you would be saying OMG, they're the same person! That's cause they are. I drew MYSELF as I thought I would look like as a fox (more accurate than Koriani would have been...) minus the glasses. I've got glasses, as a fox I don't. And one last thing there... 4th of July! Hehehe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Wilopolis Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I wish I could draw as well as you, XG... And that lil' pic is worth a 8/10 in my book! And your next is based off you? Wheee, then I'm not totally alone with the basing of characters off myself department. I've based 5 different characters of mine off of me. And one's a crazy British lady. That means I sometimes act like a crazy Brit. Weeeeeeiiiirrd... And happy 4th o' July. Off Topic, but I still have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XG Fox Posted July 5, 2005 Author Share Posted July 5, 2005 Yeah, next is me. Originally, Koriani Fox was me. What I tend to do is when I draw my characters, I base them off my friends, as if they were each of my characters. But not always. Yeah, you guys'll like this coming one... looks like I'm ready to blow stuff up... 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
