D-Pad's World (56K)

Edit- I renamed the topic because I want to show off Jyochi's world and the people and things in it. Below you can check out people, places, and even things that evolve around my fictional character, Jyochi. Have fun!

I hope you enjoyed this post!

O_O thats all I can say

Lol. Is that good or bad? Should I convert the images to links?

"O_O" means good

Cool, thanks! ^_^ I'm still working on some other drawings of him (having trouble shading the hair in one...), and I'm also making his theme song. The melody is down, I just need to find the best way to arrange it.

these drawings are like masterpieces
aw man im running out of nice words to say about peoples
drawings.

Lol! Thanks alot! ^_____^; I have two quick sketches today:

I decided to go ahead and post the sketch of the Jyochi pic I was coloring. Jyochi frightened:


He looks scared. Sorry about the hands. Still practicing! x_O;

Also - Ruth! She runs the late night diner (which is actually open all day) in Jyochi's home town with her brother, Russ. She's kind and outgoing, and would never be seen without her apron and hair net (she claims it's good advertisment, but I think it's something else). Jyochi stops by the diner everyday to chow down his favorite dish: Pancakes with mustard.


Still workin' on that one foot.

Edit - Finished coloring Ruth!

woh... hey your really good with expressing emotins... AMAZING!!! ^^
BTW what program are you using to color your pics? im thinking about starting to color my pics too...

Thanks! I'm glad you think so. The reason I started drawing was to try and recreate the emotion found in anime and manga.

If you want, you can listen to the song I made for Jyochi:
[It's Filefront]

I used a freeware open-sourced program called the Gimp, and air brushed Ruth. I'm trying to cel-shade Jyochi, but it's taking forever. >_<;; Ruth was pretty easy, aside from redrawing her foot with a mouse.

damn... how did you make a song? sry for asking all this info its just that im currently(surprised by that myself...) am trying to learn ANYTHING that interests me... i know i know... "i should be focusing on my studys at school" but i still want to learn this... its a long story about WHAT and WHY im learning these things(and would be considered as spam XD) so ill just ask you this - with what did you make this song? XD

XD No problem! I'm happy to answer all questions. ^^

To make the song, I used a combination of (complex) programs. First, to compose the song, I used DirectMusic Producer (google it. kinda hard to find on Microsoft's website. Free though, and great for game music). It uses a piano roll, so you don't have to know the notes, but it has a steep learning curve. Then I used the Fluid soundfonts from SF2Midi.com and loaded them into DMP. I had to convert them to DLS first using Awave Studio and since I only have the trial version, I have to do it one instrument at a time... Then I recorded the output using the record function in my soundcard's (Sound Blaster Audigy SE) Wave editor (Audacity can be used for this as well, and you can download it for free), playing it through Sound Blaster's EAX (reverb effect) concert hall turned up to 55. Then I convert it to MP3 using the same program.

Here are the links to all of the programs I mentioned above:

[DirectMusic Producer] - *It uses DirectMusic, and it's made by Microsoft, so Windows Only?*

[Fluid Soundfonts] - *SF2Midi.com - You need to sign up for their free membership, I think...*

[Awave Studio] -*Shareware - But uninstalling it, and reinstalling it again works, and I don't think it's wrong (they would have corrected it in the newer versions, right?).

[Audacity] - *Freeware, open-sourced audio editor.*

Id do that grandma o_O

youre disgusting
not the art but the guy who said hed do the grandma
hey puu i really hope you a guy in real life after you said that.

Damn dude thats complex... but will have to look into it thanks! and nicely made song!

Puu what did you mean with "Id do that grandma o_O" i dont really get what you sed...

XD Watch what you say, Puu! Ruth's younger over-protective brother, Russell is right behind you. If he heard you say that he'd probably be hitting you with his favorite iron cast skillet.



Don't worry though. He's a real softy. He won't hurt you too much.
