AER crowd character: BMJbok

avatar
(Edited)

Alternate title: Basketbok.

Why yes I can actually do portraits in portrait. It just required flipping numbers in my render settings and I am nothing if not incredibly lazy.

Everything that is remotely to do with a springbok now has the suffix -bok. And bmj and jackmiller managed to replace a well known and widely used cuss word with "bok" as well which made for an amusing conversation.

Perhaps I should have done a rugby ball but basketball got stuck in my head as nathanmj is mad keen about it and I vaguely recall bmj saying something about coaching but I don't know if the two ideas were actually related. I think this guy is almost a treebok and not just because of the horns or the different picture orientation. Reckon he'll just about stand eye to eye with some of my taller Dragonkin.

This post also appears on my blog.

Random thing I've noticed: only the self-insert is a Base. Everyone else wants to be Evolved XD (the Flyers and Mers are technically Evolved).

Other crowd characters

Stuff to do

  • AER crowd character for lordnigel
  • Aurelius action shot for jedau (this one is next unless I get an idea/response for the preceding one)
  • AER crowd characer 2 for aussieninja (self insert)
  • AER crowd character for vincentnijman (an idea forms)
  • upgoats for Cae
  • mascot for bmj (going to be a very refined and civilised 85% version of this one)
  • tubcat illustration (wonder if tubcat would go ninja on me if I gave it bellyrubs)
  • symphonyofechoes header
  • upgoats for pangoli
  • mascot for just2random
  • upgoats for thecreativerebel

Want a crowd character? If you interact frequently with me here (either on my posts or your posts or better yet both!) or on one of the linked Discord channels, all you have to do is let me know and tell me what you'd like :) It can be one of your characters (including ones you make up on the spot for this XD) or a self insert. There's a bunch of different human types to choose from, and pets/other animals are also welcome.

Thanks for looking! ^_^

If you want to natter I usually haunt both the #teamaustralia channels (yes there's two now, the PAL one and a South Pacific one for Aus/NZ), Be Awesome, and hang with the @steemartists on the server with the same name on Discord with a bunch of awesome people :D

The steemaroo divider is free to use. Ask me nicely if you want an upgoat/cute critter footer.

Thanks ^_^ Sketchies don't actually take too long (~1hr give or take, a bit longer if there's more characters), I've just had a few too many disruptions over the last couple of weeks. Got it some value of back together now :)

What colour and pattern would you like?

Also there's a bit of a wait as my queue is getting pretty long as you can see :)

Basketbok! Ha! Nice! It fit quite well, and I think the BMJbok looks like a total badass even with the short shorts!

Never mess with the guys in short shorts XD Maybe I should have put him in street basketball gear instead, but as I said in the description some ideas had gone and merrily mixed in my head and this happened XD

No, no, no. This wouldn't be the same in street basketball clothes! Short shorts is life!
