Character Designs, ~huzzah!

[Taphophiliac]

INTRODUCTION:

So~ Aside from other types of art.
Taph also loves to design my own characters as well as the character's of other people and the characterized forms of RL people. ^^' I range from attempted realism to SD and everything in between. I always feel that it is important to receive criticism here and there so your comments would be well appreciated. However.. I'm still a student in the arts.. so don't be too harsh. >>'

XD So I'm going to post my OLD OLD.. drawings as well as a few of the recent ones. Because of my infinite paranoia of having stuff stolen.. I will refrain from posting my final long term projects until I finish designing my stamp IF I get Photoshop to finally work.. x.x'

Anywho~ without further ado. Beholdz my sketches of failz.

PAPER CUT OUT ANIMATION!: Lain & Narcissus

Note: It looks incestish.. to me.. ><' But yea.. the two characters are half siblings. Either way... it's my three week midterm project.. and I feel proud of it so I want to share. ^^ Critiques are welcomed for this piece. Either way.. they are my own character designs taken into a :22, 2-D paper experimental animation.
