Deer By Color [Ideas, Adopts] (Newest: Freedom of Movement)

CHARACTERS WHO AREN'T
Idea-Doodles for Adoption


I like to play with color and character design and such things. On my computer I usually just doodle and my more serious arts are with inks, but recently I've been digging up old color palettes I made specifically for digital art and I've been turning them into doodle designs when inspiration strikes me. I've got waaay more color palettes from my colourlovers days that I'll hopefully do more doodles with. I'm not going to make any of these characters for me since I've already got La and don't need any more work. I hide my other art here.

Most of these ideas are up for adoption, I only ask that you do stuff with them. I like seeing things done with my ideas and if you take them and don't use them it bums me out a little. So I might be hesitant to give them out if I've never seen you around before. I'm reasonable though, and if you ask but I'm not certain I will hold them for you and wait until you become a more regular member. You can change stuff about my ideas and of course they can evolve just like real people over time.

Mouse over a palette to learn about the idea. If you want it, ask! (And if you ask and don't bother to take them after asking I'll just assume that you changed your mind, no biggie).

24 Freedom of Movement
Should have mentioned on this one that Freedom of Movement as a name comes from a DnD spell.


23. Proposed Set: Mallard
If I got to add a set to the game, it would be this in order to explain that duck quack that I hate so much. It combines the macho of mallard ducks with the macho of roman soldiers. Hopefully.
[MOUSE OVER]

22. Heartbreak
Not about angst so much as about the grace to handle sadness. Has no original palette but I left little color blobs on the image. I feel bad about using red and black together.
[MOUSE OVER]

21. Rock the Boat
With Staff; anchors aweigh! His name is Argus.


20. Understand [NOT TAKEN]
I suppose I would ask that anyone who likes this guy would know stuff about spiders.


19. Robot [NOT TAKEN]
Realize I made a typo and spelled his name Sochatoa instead of Sohcahtoa. Whoops.


18. Smoothe
Kikinkacze has adopted Smoothe.


17. As I Fell Asleep
This character is with Masego now. Here's her bio!


16. Nothing, Go Away [NOT TAKEN]
FairyClock and I discussed in the comments the texture of this character's growths. I imagine them as semi-firm and spongy with a velvety texture that isn't quite soft.


15. Going on an Adventure
Not really up for adoption, but I think that around rut time I may shove this character(s) awkwardly into as many open roleplays as I can.


14. Te Amo [NOT TAKEN]
Didn't realize until too late I should have cracked a "party animal" joke on the image. Oh well. Named the file that. This is one of my favorites so far. Tokata said they wanted this one, but that player has vanished so it's up for grabs still.


13. Dedicated
This character is now with Lambfleece. His name is Torst.


???. Mysterious Character/Shameless Tarzan Ripoff
[WHO IS THIS POOR MAN?]

12. All the Whispers
Whispers lives with Ebony3 now, listening intently.
I had an idea after I finished drawing this character that if he/she were in Jurassic Park, that scene where they hear the T. rex coming from far away would be way anticlimactic.


11. Whatcha Doin'?
Hoactzin adopted this design. He is now named Toir.


10. Mean Spirited
Helot has taken Mean Spirited, now a male character called Midnight Spitter.


9. A Different Path
Now named Ra and played by MagicHats.


8. Roll [NOT TAKEN]


7. Conlang
Toya has adopted this babbling oddball. I also noted in the comments and should have added here that after I finished the picture I realized that his mask bears slightly more than a passing resemblance to Onomatopoeia from Batman, though I wasn't thinking about Onomatopoeia when I was drawing Conlang. Still, I think there may have been something subconscious since they both have to do with words and I feel better noting it here the way I've noted other inspirations on images.


6. Demolitions Expert
Hanging out with Pelicann these days.


5. Man Overboard [NOT TAKEN]


4. Hoatzin
Hoatzin's design was finished by Jacklo so I'm saying its now mostly his baby instead of mine. Here's the awesome comment he made with his design.


3. [Name Unremembered]
He left with Night654, presumably to safety-proof their home. He's now named Eiji.


2. Irrigation [NOT TAKEN]


1. We Should Talk [NOT TAKEN]
Terraminator had this, but she vanished and never used it so it's up for grabs again.

I don't think it's especially

I don't think it's especially soft, but it's very light and mostly just air and some molecules. I think if you touched it it would be something you could manipulate and move around but be kind of dry. Like if cordyceps was pliable.

Ahh, would you mind too

Ahh, would you mind too terribly if I adopted "Dedicated"? S/he's been bothering me for a while now, like a little shelter pup you just can't get your mind off once you've seen 'em. Weird way to explain it, haha!

But really, I've been doodling the bugger a few times and would really like them. Smiling If that's ok.

"Whistle" has gotten my attention, he's so darn cute. Is it alright if I adopted him?

AlisonRobin's picture

Night, go for it. I love

Night, go for it. Smiling I love your other characters and look forward to seeing what you do with the little worrier. Unfortunately I don't think I have any of the files for him left other than the one posted here, so if you need it transparent you may have to cut it out yourself I'm afraid. It would probably just be better to redraw him entirely. :x

Masego, I've seen you in some other adoption threads asking about characters there recently. It seems like a lot to me, and I'm curious what your plans are for all of them--because even roleplaying and developing one character is a lot of work--before I hand over a character. Are you sure that you aren't biting off more than you can chew?

I've actually been a member

I've actually been a member for awhile now, so I understand how much work it is to develop a character, but I've got plans for all the concepts I'm interested in! Mainly I want to start anew with a fresh look on development and creating. I understand your concern though, but my heart was snagged the moment I saw her. I actually wish to make her my main baby, if you'd let me. <3

Oh, I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in this world.

(also, I hope I'm not bugging you, but any chance you might have a transparent version of her? n.n)

There you go. I'm curious to see how you use the fortune telling stuff and I'm totally looking forward to it. Smiling

I love the new CSS. Very fluid, intuitive. Excellent presentation.

Since I always read this anyway, I may as well do this.

Thanks Hum. Today I got sick of all the scrolling since there are so many doodles now so I went with the mouseover thing. My scroll wheel finger can only take so much punishment.

@Amaz thank you! For the record I really love the way you handle color in your art. I know you do black and white a lot but I think that when you work with colors you have the most lovely painterly style.

kikinkacze thank you so much for the sweet gift! I love the look of Grass Runner and I have an idea for a story with him already!

Jennie I am so sorry that math is not love for you. But I think that when someone grabs him you and he will be able to sit together in the deermuda together a lot for some wild glitchy naps!

I recently changed the first

I recently changed the first post so it says that I'm asking that people who want to take designs do something with them because I've given stuff out in the past that has gotten some use and then been ignored and that doesn't feel so great from my end.

Since you are new I don't know one way or the other if you are going to have him as an active character. Here's what I'll do: I'll hold him for you, and if I see you around posting and roleplaying with your other character, then you can definitely have him.
Ebony3's picture

Sorry I haven't done anything

Sorry I haven't done anything with the design you gave me yet, I'm trying to get css done for all of my characters and I'm not real good at that. I want to get that done before I start playing her because once I start I'll probably not finish a bio. ^^; Just want you to know that she will be used. (:
Oh, I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in this world.

No prob, I know you're

No prob, I know you're hanging around the site to stay so I wasn't concerned about you at all. Smiling

With trial and error I'm getting a better (but still imperfect) sense of whether someone will vanish, or whether they want something because it inspired them or because they just want it. This is the double-edged sword of giving away ideas but I'll make it.

YEP! Most useful mnemonic in

YEP!

Most useful mnemonic in trigonometry and it always sounded like a name. Not one I'd ever give a child but you know. Good for a triangle enthusiast.

Commit that word to memory, grab your calculator, and never worry about trig again until your teacher/professor starts talking about the horrors known as unit circles and tells you to switch your calculator out of degree mode. Sad
