JNC Ninja Dude Redesign

Right guys, i'm doing a slight redesign on the JNC Ninja Dude.

I've got a rough version ready to show you all, please note that it is ONLY a rough Version, and i'm working on refining it.

So here we go,

Rough Version 1


Things i'm going to work on for version 2 is a redesign on the sword because i'm not really happy with it, also i'm not happy with the belt and headband. This was really to try out shading and adding depth to the logo.

Question: Do you like the Anime style eyes?

Any suggestions please let me know


as a side note, i'm going to work on various different poses when i get chance, and after i have designed the flyers.

Awesome work there Tony...........i like the look of it for sure......
It's a lot more polished than my original freehand drawing......

Looks good to me, although my artistic appreciation isn't the greatest!!! Anyhoo, looks good!

Looking good mate, i like the anime eyes and I think perhaps an anime style ninja would look good. Certainly looking more polished as mr G said. I want to incorporate the Ninja into the tshirts somehow but not decide on the over all layout for them yet. Keep up the good work though!

Thanks for the effort you are putting in, really appreciate it!

looks great tony, good job with the design. would be good to incorporate him onto the shirts too pabz, good work on the site so far matey

Cheers greg. Yeah when Tony has finished the redesign I will look at a view ideas on how to put him on the tshirts!

Right, Revision 2.

I've redesigned the headband (i've made it wider, added Japanese symbols and used the navel ensign), a little redesign on the belt and i have two options your you guys to choose from, on has a single sword and the other has two, crossed.

So, which do you all prefer? one sword or two?




Once we have an idea of which one is prefered, i'll refine it.

Tony

One sword looks fine.
Why does it remind me of Avram Grant ??

Yeah i agree with Tom....the Single Katana is cool...... liking the Naval Flag on the headband.....top marks dude....

Looks awesome tony, well done mate. I'm in the single-sword agreement too dude.

Also, why does his headband say 'egg fried rice and pork ball's'??

I think traditional ninjas only carried one katana so I would stay with the one. Awesome work mate, love the refinemnents you have made!

Top marks!

The only thing I might suggest is perhaps lining where his legs separate as he looks like he has one leg! Don't get me wrong it's awesome work but if you can do a revision refining his legs to see what it looks like that would be great!

Again fantatsic stuff mate!

I'll add the separation of the legs on the next revision mate... to be honest i have my doubts but we'll see. but i do know what you mean though. I have a couple of ideas of how too show the separation, so we'll see what the general consensus is.

I'll go forward with the single katana...

So, a general shout out to all members. Any one got any more ideas/suggestions of things you want adding/changing to the design?????

lol

hmm... thinking about a little fun competition... to see if anyone can guess what it actually says....... hmmmm

could be an interesting one to do at the next show!

Right ok, i've got a experimental design showing the legs separated.... is this what you were looking for pabs?

What do people think........ shall i continue to develop this revision or return to the more original design? here are the latest revisions for both separated and un-separated for you to peruse -




at first i wasn't to keen on the seperated legs.... but the more i look, the more its growing on me.....
