I think I will take this on, maybe in a loosely official capacity for OOPE
this is the lineup I have, is this correct?
June______Rain July_______Katie Kun August_____Graygor September__Zoe & Chloe October_____Shalua Rui & Eevee November___Kirjava December___Alice Saki (the cat one is a little dark and should be re-done. christmas helper? ) January_____Arkady Vachon February____Random McNally March______ Yiole April________Zimmy Zeta May________baltec1
easiest for me would be a front-view; post something like this or this (but slightly more zoom on the second one), clothes toggle off, and I can work with that. zoom until the feet are above the history bar (but not blocked by it!)
no shoes, just underwear--I'll dress you.
if you have preference for outfit, lemme know
if you get the whole body into the shot, and basically bring the feet as close to the bottom of the screen without cutting them off, each month's image can be made to a 1920x1080 size, and date blocks can be added to the margins to make a nice desktop look.
at the pace of one month/pic every two to three days, I think i can do a 12 month group of calendar months by Odyssey.
don't worry about cropping the UI on the sides--that will be covered with a fade to black on both sides. in fact, if you crop it that's ok too but then I have to add the racial logo back.
when a set of images are done by the same hands, as a group, they have a continuity that adds a nice "gotta catch 'em all" touch.
protip: fine zoom is moving the mouse up/down with both left and right mouse buttons held. |

the rains can't make up their minds between sexy power rangers, metal gear solid beauty and the beast unit, cartoon princesses, or just plain lingerie--
they're modeling for me in 9's CQ and it looks like a strip mall hurricane

I know exactly what you mean, and I will make sure it will not turn out that way
Shalua Rui wrote:Hm, I could be wrong there, but I didn't see actual "pinups" for this pinup calender yet...  I don't think that's out of the question. however, to get the classic betty page style pinups, it would require images that are mostly non-EVE with a capsuleer's face on it. very doable, but that's what it would require, since we don't have those poses available in character customization. just something to consider. |

Zoe, Chloe, quick question: if one of you had to be described as "good" and the other described as "evil" who would they be? (or are they both good or bad?) |

I think I can have this packaged up for Odyssey. ...that's the plan/schedule/goal. I'm 99% certain it'll happen by then.
the DPI is almost optimal for a 8.5x11 print, but I think you mean digital publishing? it's perfect for that.
this rain one took a long time... it's literally five times the work of a single character. I keep reminding myself of that. the rest will go faster. |

have you seen DUST's playstation storefront? it's rather underwhelming. with the ease that this bar design can be implemented, it's in the right direction. I have heard in a dev interview that the lighting is what makes the CQ so graphics intensive. there's a way to solve that, too
I may have said too much to stop here, but I must.
also, I was going to push through for the next few hours, but I need a nap. I know it's time to rest my brain when the faces I'm working on begin winking at me. |

Graygor wrote:You ever thought about maybe trying for an artist job at CCP? I considered attending art school. it does wonders for someone with that spark--but I've decided to pursue mechanical engineering and keep art as a secondary skill and hobby. currently I lack a lot of art theory and industry-specific knowledge to work as an artist professionally.
to consider it anyway, like other types of work, I imagine it would only associate stress with something I love. I would rather not turn something I love into "work"
circa 2009, EVE's art had me worried, but with the look and utility of Carbon, it can outpace anything I do. I might be capable as a "skinner" but I know a lot of those, too, who are more qualified than me.
plus I'm not Icelandic.

Indahmawar Fazmarai wrote:Don't tell the rains, but the more i look at it, the less natural looks the crotch area, looks like it's too tight. See what I mean, the trousers' crotch is well away from hers.  I agree with you. it bothers me too. I'll make another pass over the lot, at the end, and fix that crotch. it's too low, and the light is wrong. the right leg is also not natural-looking.
the problem with staring at one piece for too long is, you become blind and complacent to it. I refer to it as "my eyes are ******"
I'm about to call it "good" with the Rains, to continue on to August/Graygor. again, to make another pass at the end. |

Sheimi Madaveda wrote:I know im late, but can i be in august with graygor? August is my favorite month of the year :) I get the feeling Eevee might not want to have her avatar included. IF she is set on not being in the calendar, I can put you in with Shalua Rui in October (Eevee's spot). that's up to her. otherwise, I'm burdened a little on the heavy side to take on more characters. maybe you could give Eevee ISK and buy her out 
also: Graygor and Random McNally... those two have unique themes, and I can't work anyone into those and have it make sense
in other news, Photoshop crashed and I lost 2 hours of work. I made it to the rough lighting stage, and all I could save was this screenshot. my computer is telling me it's time to move on to August/Graygor. and also set the shortcut to open as administrator (without admin rights, the auto-saves never happened, I think.)
I know exactly how to redo it, so it's not so bad. it could have been worse |

Graygor, you still on?
I'm piecing the suit together. Even if I could find a perfect fit picture, I'd rather stay true to the uncanny EVE pose, so I prefer it this way; I might have to do the pieces of the tactical vest bit by bit, but if that's the case, it'll look super 3D
I think this is enough progress to show:
no homo
Whether all the straps/material is green or brown depends on the majority of the pictures I find of the tac vest. If I'm not successful with this look, plan B is I make you King Leonidas
Commissar Kate, if I have enough time I want to redo yours completely, to something that can be more "painted on" so that more of the EVE character pose comes through. |

I'm not worried about endorsement on the calendar's behalf. these types of things have a way of circulating on their own
also, there is a huge disparity in quality between the official/professional art released by CCP, and images generated by players. this calendar is unusual for its quality (not to sound self-serving), so trying to stay vanilla like the rest of the images posted on the EVE facebook page (for example) is not the way to go, in my opinion.
I'm more than happy with this thread being merely permitted. I consider that enough support. I also think they know about this thread by now, and have seen the images, and have made the decision to stay hands-off. aside from the raciness, this is very original, player-generated content that has grown from the eve-o forums, and I think that's the only reason this would be condoned.
trust me, I don't want to push it too far.
basically, I think we're alone on this one. personally, everyone enjoys a good photoshop, but officially (as volunteers and employees of CCP), all they can do to condone this is not lock the thread, so we have to keep this moving on our own.
if this got me a ban (temporary, hopefully!), that's exactly the type of thing people like to hear: "some players made a calendar and the pilot who drew it got banned... check it out"
not that I want to be disruptive, but getting in trouble is not -all- bad.
explicit, non-PEGI is not a direction I would like to go. I think a big part of this calendar's appeal is the new take on a bland character pose (everyone is used to seeing). it's what makes them fun to look at. something familiar and boring has been made cool
I think going X rated would only cheapen the calendar.
I wouldn't use an in-game mailing list to distribute non-PEGI images, either 
the story of the rains and the graphic novel I have wanted to do (for years).. it is very, very, very, very adult. I plan to make it as explicit as wormhole space is lawless (and to the furthest extent of my artistic ability). so:
1: I've spent time considering un-endorsed fanfic art, and
2: I get the impression you're ok with that, so maybe this is one step closer to the graphic novel being published. maybe over the summer. |

oh, see, working on pure inspiration is a nicety, but that's not what I run on. I've learned a lot already, from the few pictures of this calendar so far. including a few new photoshop tricks that I discovered, a new habit of finding a different way if one doesn't work, and there's the practice of getting light, saturation, and texture just right.
really, I'd like to know what you imagine for Eevee. my part is putting it down into pixels |

Actually, I noticed your look quite a while ago, and saved this avatar of yours and it's dated (on my hard drive) 1 january 2013.
I also appreciate your interest and I'd love to squeeze you in.
btw your figure is amazing.
when you have the time, can you post a couple more back views, and also these angles seen in the rains' picture. clothes toggled off.
small res is ok, I'll just pick the one I want to use and ask you to get a high res of just that one.
also lemme know the specifics of what you'd like Baby ChuChu to look like. if you don't know or want to be surprised, that's great too, because there are some parts of you I'd like to accentuate, but I think we can work yours and my plans in together.
it will be a week-ish to ten days before I have a rough of you. still no idea what month to put you in but that can come later. |

ok slight problem
I know I said straight ahead view would be best, but I just realized... straight ahead views are very boring to look at. I couldn't figure out why something just... didn't seem right.
it's a very basic aspect, and I feel kinda dumb for suggesting straight ahead view in the first place...
I need somewhat-turned views!
I should have known better/I don't have much experience working with 3D rendered poses (as I showed some of you in chat--please don't repost the sketch here--the perspectives I like to work with are very... dynamic)

the issue is, it's difficult to get an interesting picture from a vertical pose... and observers have a good sense for when something is interesting and when it's not.
I couldn't figure out why the image wasn't getting any more interesting as I worked on it... no matter what I tried, it was just... boring--then it jumped out at me.
so basically, anything turned at least a little bit from straight center, works |

Hi Loco/Rains
Not a criticism, but I think i should express some concern about the Rain posts, as already a couple persons told me that they find them very difficult to track them and there are so many that also make difficult to read the rest of the thread.
Maybe would be nice to slow them a bit, make each post longer and write more conversation inside of each post, rather than spread the conversation over several oneliner replies? This would make easier to track who says what to who and wouldn't obscure the other posts. |

over the extended downtime I assembled a portable air conditioning unit in my room. anyway
so. instead of trying to upsize Eevee that you've seen in the last update, I had a duh moment and got an ingame screenshot with my client. will be using this. just so happens Eevee wants to be in a tank top
also, the thought occurred to me that I should finish Zoe/Chloe, call it good on the rains, so that suddenly I would be 25% complete.
also, the 6/Kate image has gained some attention here and here. Though it's still small, I think the positive interest is a good sign of how the calendar will be received outside of OOPE--Reddit especially, is a good indicator. |

restricting things to a 12 month calendar doesn't make the most sense. mostly because it's restrictive.
I do enjoy doing this and people enjoy seeing a good shoop. so will it get squeezed into the product marked as "The Greater Fool Bar 2013"? no, but over time yes there should be bits of shoop here and there.
//about updates: basically, market. two of the rains' subscriptions expire this month, and a third next month. irl $ is not an issue, but as a matter of principle the rains are trying to figure out a plan to continue their pilots licenses without paying out of pocket... through mission/market/and meta... (subs expire 18 June, 28 june, and 28 July. the other three don't hit until the end of this year.)
for four year veterans of EVE who spend so much time at the computer, it's understandable they would want to, right? it's just the specifics that are still un-clear. so if you're wondering what's slowing down the updates, it was that.
meanwhile, Billions are tied up in carriers that only a trickle of people want, and this is the first time the rains have handled all their assets with the intention of selling. so there's some market learning that has to take place.

I just ****** up bad. While replacing my Sisi installs on my scratch disk, I deleted the whole EVE folder, which included like, all of my EVE images from ever. I tried an undelete program, but the storage space was overwritten with new installs of Sisi.
This was two hours ago, and I just now realized what I did.
it could be worse, and I can somewhat continue where I left off using the previews images.
I'll let you know what it looks like, I haven't taken a full inventory of the images I have in other places on my computer, and uploaded to mediafire.
I'm on a beastly 20MB up/down (yes, 20 megabyte, or 160mbit) fiber optic line... it looks like I should begin using mediafire for more of a complete remote backup. it has 51 gigs available for free.

Alice could I get you to use an outfit that is skintight, or a tank top, and one of the hotpants, as well as heels if you have them. so I can get a screenshot of you to work with.
I can get the rains to contract you a pair of heels if you do not own any.

the difficulty being... well, they say a blank sheet of paper has perfect unity, and as you add to it, the unity is disturbed, and the challenge is balancing it.
I'm looking over previous, simpler versions and I feel like it's lost some of the contrast, and that will be addressed as all the colors are laid down, in their final shape and focus/etc.

I agree with you. the boots are colored that way, for now, for the sake of construction (so i can see the parts individually). I've made up my mind to "force" a color shift at the end, to make the boots and straps have more cohesion--they won't stick out as being so 'strappy' and they'll fit in with a nice contrast for the image overall.
I'll try to end tonight's edit with the boots appearing more cohesive in color and brightness. |

POSTERS. FREAKING HUGE POSTERS.
so earlier tonight, 10PM, I'm at Kinko's (a US 24-hour print services franchise)... when I happen to notice in the back of the building is a set of huge printers and oversize scanning equipment, as well as laminating machines. and then I notice the signs for banners 3 feet in width, up to 8 feet in length, using vinyl for outdoor, polypropylene for indoor... for around 8$ per square foot. (paper prints are much cheaper, at less than 1$ per square foot)
they prefer 300 ppi in CMYK, and while I'm not working in CMYK, the full-res ppi of zoe and chloe happens to be...
5 feet tall. <-download it to view in full res
the other great news is, their oversize print capability will save me a lot of time in the future. but as for POSTERS
just in case you so desire, this is an example of a (roughly) 3' by 5' jpg. the file is less than 2MB so you can take it to your local Kinko's or other oversize print shop for your own fanboy vertical life-size poster
I will continue to use this res... I'm very excited by the thought of it. with the retina screen array that will be "rainfleet mk3", I can screencap necessary resolutions directly from the client and work from it.
Graygor, I'll revisit Gray-Snake to upsize it, followed by the rains' beauty and beast unit group pic. |

I considered that for a bit, too.
art takes time, and it's static. add that to the fact the ability is relatively uncommon and it costs money.
second, the value of the art is more technically significant than people realize. the way I imagine it, he's taken someone's verbal description and conveyed it visually, which allows the bigger group of programmers and designers to get the visual effects just right (in terms of how things look at a distance, how the light should bounce off things, atmospheric effects [yes, even in space--which is a lie for our viewing pleasure])
there are barriers to volume + quality that you can probably imagine. they're mitigated to an extent by workflow improvements, second string artists, and an effective method (techniques and such), and experience. but the bottom line is volume of good handmade art is low.
there's a reason why comic book art tends to lack that visual appeal, depending on how often the issues are published.
in contrast, a graphics engine such as Carbon (used by CCP for EVE character modeling) is so useful. when they get the lighting and colors (and everything) in a 3D graphics engine just right, it becomes a "live" moving thing of beauty.
I've noticed some artistic ability in different parts of the fanbase, outside of EVE-O forums, with various levels of participation in EVE with their skills... but I figure they have careers or a life that outweighs EVE, understandably.
It would take a special brand of EVE fanatic to first decide to devote their life to art, and then to EVE. It makes sense in my mind, that this person is Borkur Eriksson, an Icelander.
the way I see it, for an Icelander to work for CCP borders on patriotic duty.

hey my fingers are still blasted from overuse this week. the aching in my index fingers resisted the ibuprofen i took last night, and tonight the ibuprofen has barely managed to get it under control. just a mix of using a mouse in an unusual position, and a lot of cutting work with an xacto knife for my design project.
I want to give the image a stronger red, white, and black color scheme, and quite possibly finish by the end of the week.
but right know my knuckles are aching, my tendons hurt a bit too.

I'm really glad you like it. relieved, even. I know you were partial to fallout initially, but I didn't like the bulky look of power armor ...! the underworld feel has more potential for sexy and a form fitting look.
I'm looking forward to the practice of doing shiny black metal, I think it will turn out very nice.
before i do that i have to make sure the shapes are right. I'm going for a LoTR ring wraith look, with mostly-black polished metal, possibly polished red pieces and/or polished gunmetal pieces, with gold trim . that I should worry about losing my hearing is nonsense, because there will always be -=BASS=- |

the armor isn't completely rendered/drawn yet... this is a stopping point for me, and I need to meditate on the image for a while.
I've never rendered shiny metal before... there's still a lot of light to add. this is quite outside my normal range, but that's a good thing and i'm excited.

I'm no expert on adding shine but I do have a tip to share. When we look at reflective objects, our minds have a tendency to ignore the reflected and distorted images in them and think of it as generic reflection garbage. To draw it properly, you should consider how funny mirrors work. Study how the curvature of the mirror affects the image. Then once you have figured out where the lights are, smack that sort of distorted reflection on the armor, matte it down a bit to look more like metal rather than an actual mirror, and finally, make sure the metal's color shines through. If you do that right, it wont matter if there's a giant distorted pen+¡s in the reflection; nobody will notice but the armor would look amazingly shiny! hey, me neither! and that's exactly what I was thinking~ I was going to start by adding the reflection of her arm on her boob and ribcage sections. and the hip plates. being out of practice, I just wasn't ready to jump into reflections just yet. plus I have to finish the arm portions first.
thanks for the tip, Reaver. I appreciate'cha

oh dude, feedback is awesome.
there are some changes coming up, most of the red circles are addressed. the funny thing about the hair is what changed: only the background. if you look closely at the hair, you'll see a lot of blue in it, picked straight from the original background to help it blend/that's why it did. darkening the background made the hair stand out, and i'm leaving the hair for the very end when i know what colors and brightnesses are in the picture.
about the scars across the belly: those gaps are the joints of the torso, and those slats are overlapping like shingles. looking at it again, however, i realize I made the form of them rectangular, when their bottom edges could/should taper to an edge. that would probably look better and render better.
Eevee, european broadsword is a good choice. it will look nice.
thanks again for the feedback, i liked that.
ah and the scratches, those will be colored and blended. I avoid highlighting with white as a rule, and those lines are just placeholders for brightness.

Eevee, for the flare you want, you did say it is the look you're after... right? because structurally, I can't easily get myself to make greaves that are just huge and would get caught on things as you walk.
to solve this problem, I have used.... fur.

OK. so it turns out the custom sheet of ring mail i made was big enough to seamlessly cover the portions you mentioned. and i caved and gave a considerable number of them their own "cool lighting effects."
is it ok if we go straight across the neckline rather than sloped?

Fair enough. Most of the picture is still in the planning phase, and I'm trying to decide on a color composition. I did put some specifics into the skin, in the meantime. If you look at the skin of the neck and how it drops off where the Phanca starts, that was my placeholder / proof of concept of conveying a layer of skin over the mechanical bits.
Granted, I didn't reduce the size of the Phanca at all, and I made the skin drop-off kind of thick. Conceptually, the underlying mechanics of an android would be smaller than the overall shape, to allow for the thickness of the skin while maintaining the size of the body.
Small detail, and it is an inconsistency, yes.
