★ What Is This? ⬊

The KHV Musical is a site-wide collaboration that will be worked on over the course of the next year. The project will bring together various creative sections of KH-Vids and will ultimately result in an actual musical that will be released to the public September 2013. The musical will feature original artwork, original music and lyrics and an original screenplay. It will be showcasing the various voice talents of our very own KH-Vids members, and there will be auditions held for parts starting in May!

The musical will be compiled in the Visual Novel software Ren'Py, and there will also be a watchable Youtube version, and perhaps a Livestream of the play-through at some point. The estimated run time is 45 minutes to an hour, or so, but there is not fixed time.

★ Phase 3:⬊

Calling all ARTISTS! Hey there! While the writers finish up their screenplays, we're going to go ahead and get started on the art. For now, we will be focusing on the art of the main characters. What we basically need are rough sketches/character designs that will be voted on via likes (if you like what you see, hit the like button). We will focus on this for a couple of weeks...Anyone can submit a design for a character (for any of the main cast) at this point. If you make multiple sketches, please post each individual sketch into a new post.

The second stage is to have the winning sketches inked and eventually colored.

Let me show you an example process!

x Sketch
x Lineart (ignore the mask lol)
x Color

That being said, the ideal art will be digital. However, the concept art can be scanned.

So what first?

Concept art! From January 4th to January 18th, please submit character design sketches here. These sketches can be messy, if you want, but you're basically just outlining what the character will look like and wear. Something like this.

On January 19th, we will decide on final concept art for each main character.

From January 20/21st to January 31st, we will be working on clean sketches. (Such as the one in the 'sketch' example above).

From February 1st to February 15th, we will be linearting.

From the February 16th to February 28th, we will be doing the final coloring.

Rules

★ Concept art can be scanned, but the clean sketches, linearting/inking, and coloring MUST be digital (unless you have an amazing quality scanner).

★If you provide any art, you do not have to do all of it. For example, if you're only able to do the lineart, but you can't do anything else, it's okay! Just sign up for that part of it.

★The clean sketches of the main characters should all be done by the same person to retain style, if possible.

★Please base your concept art on the descriptions given below. (If someone says they want long hair, please don't draw them with short hair).

★Your character does not have to look exactly like you irl, if you're one of the characters to be drawn for. Just not super anime bright blue hair and red eyes pls.

★The deadlines are important!! Please follow them and finish your part on time!

What? reporting in for Concept Art / Clean Sketches / Lineart

(Colouring is a possibility in the future)

 

I can do concept art.

Palk- I mean, The Hero of Time reporting.

 

Well I'm drawing reference pics for myself anyways so I guess sign me up for whatever that would go under.
I'll help where I can but I'm gonna be ridiculously busy this semester soyea.[DOUBLEPOST=1357441526][/DOUBLEPOST]Here guys have a thing

 

Oh my!! I really hope I can find the time for this because I have legit been waiting for this ahhh <33

Concept Art / Clean Sketches / Line Art / Colouring

 

I've BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

May go for concept art and/or lineart :D

 

I'd love to help!
Let's see.... I'll help with everything!!

Do you want sketches of half-body (to hips) or full body? I'll do both, but just to clarify.

Oh and sample styles of my artwork are found:
- Traditional Art section
- Pixiv
- In my portfolios at home... (I may scan some more of my better works)

My style ranges from more realistic manga, to the shoujo stuff in Nakayoshi (like Shugo Chara, Arisa, Stardust Wink, basically the huge-eyed girly style). I can also imitate styles easily, so I hope I will be of help.

A suggestion:
Since this is a visual novel thing, should we do the drawings in a more anime/manga style? We don't have to, but I just think that it would fit the "visual novel-ness" of this project.

 

Full body is preferred, but half-body is also fine and acceptable for the concept art! In the end, I believe we'll probably just be going with half-body.

We will most likely end up with anime/manga style characters, but that will be ironed out/finalized after concept art.

--

PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE DEADLINE FOR CONCEPT ART IS IN SIX DAYS!! PLEASE GET THEM IN IF YOU'RE CONTRIBUTING THEM.

 

For my sketches, the characters are in a random pose. We can change hem depending on their personality for the final stuff...

Will post soon.

Damn... I'm a bit late for concept stuff (too many essays this month I swear to god D:), only managed to do a side of Kitteh's character. XD Uh, if you like it or not, let me know! Did this all digitally, so I hope it's ok that I cleaned it up a lil'.
Uh, I could try and do the rest ASAP (Sunday latest if possible?), they're all unfinished at the mo due to my heavy workload.
