The 'Scribblenauts Avatars' Thread-The artists have left the building

Versipellis said:
And I know I'm kinda repeating myself, but if we have a (rather long) list of requests, we should really try to stick to it. If some contributors are drawing what they like 'cause there's nothing on the list that sparks their interest, then why we are keeping the list closed? Even though we are doing this for fun, I think the people on the list should still get the priority; I don't think it's nice (EDIT: for those who are waiting) to see new batches of great avatars getting pillaged by newcomers (nothing wrong with you guys! if they are free, they are free), when we have some users who have been waiting for their request since the beginning of July. Just my 2 cents.
Yeah that's why i asked before...
I agree with you, so i'll try to stick to the list (even if some characters don't inspire me that much!)...
Can i start by making Raz from Psychonauts?
I loved the game, i'll happily make him if nobody else is.
 
Ichigo for jdub03

I tried out the template for the first time, but i don't think it worked out too well =/
 
Raz from Psychonauts for Azih! :)
I hope you like it, there you go!

EDIT: i've made a version with eyebrows as well, just choose the one you like better!

And feel free to give me some indications if you want me to change some details!

oh my yes

P.S. I recommend only following the request list if you actually want to make something on the list. And if you have a desire to do something off the list, go ahead!

But then my request was fulfilled ages ago, so I'm clearly biased. :D

i'll use the one made for me closer to game release
Booo, this man! 3 versions of Costanza and you're not using any of them...What a waste.
Just kidding, I just really like the painting one, though I'm never going to change my Kakashi

I kind of have been biting my tongue here a bit, but this thread gives me the vague impression of some sort of cyber sweatshop: I personally think the artists should just do whatever appeals to them and if your own request never gets chosen, tough cookies; there's a scrizillion other images on the worldwide web from which to choose. I just got banned, didn't I?

Ditto

Dunno. Can one get banned for being reasonable? Not on neogaf, I hope.

OTOH I haven't really been following this thread, so who knows. I suspect the requests would scare away the artists without some sort of rigid control mechanism to shield them from being pummeled into oblivion.
 
I just want to say the Scribblenauts avatars are well done. I really dig the art style. Definitely got me more interested in the game. I'll probably buy the game now.

and yes, this Junior is kinda sad I missed the boat on the S-Nauts avatars :(

Maybe you will find something to your liking in the post near the top of every page with all the avatars that have not been spoken for yet?
 
jrricky said:
If I remember correctly, Sidzed2 just recently claimed another scribbletar so...

EDIT: Wait a minute, im freakin out now. Im confused........
Atomsk is deleting requests as soon as the avatars are posted. You should still use the list you find in the first page.

Mdk7 said:

Nice. But since it seems I'm speaking nonsense when I say the list should at least have some kind of relevance (and I'm a contributor, too), then do as you like. That's ok for me ;)
 
atomsk said:
Yes, i am deleting finished requests every other day.

No, the list on the front page is WAY OUT OF DATE

this is the list you are looking for

the OP doesnt update nearly as often as it should, so please ignore it
If someone looks at the list before an avatar has been claimed, the posted but not yet claimed avatars look like as they are up for grabs. That's why I suggest looking at the first post, if you want to make sure an avatar isn't requested by somebody else. And since jrricky can't update his list every time we post a new avatar, that's one of the safer ways to check an avatar's availability.
Your list is perfect for us contributors, but not suited for avatar hunters :lol

Fixed walrus one for chapel, in safe 90x120 size. I resized from the large version, took the text from the small version, and hand-repainted a few of the letters, so I hope it looks okay and the artist doesn't mind. :D

*edit*
Also, I know some may view it as unfair when artists jump the list, but I agree with the earlier person who said that you probably get more motivated artists and better avatars if you let an artist draw what they feel like drawing. Not to mention, there is less possibility of people drawing the same thing in case they don't announce it. :)

I'm too lazy to go find the original post, but the walrus might be my new favorite! Great job bazoozoo.
 
Hey... I might be able to help with one or two of them. Which ones aren't being worked on yet?

Is the list in the OP the most up-to-date list of unfulfilled requests?
 
I'll stick to the list for the next one, meanwhile i have been inspired to create an unrequested avatar: I had lunch an hour ago and Futurama was on TV so i felt like creating one of my favorite characters ever...

Up for grabs (hoping it hasn't been done before!)

Awesome work, dude. Although I personally probably wouldn't have made his head so wide, I like that you have the artistic guts to apply the style of a character to the Scribblenauts design world, rather than applying the design principles to the character. Subtle difference, but I like it.

I guess point is, it's really rather fascinating how the different voices of the different artists are coming through even with the severe design restrictions place upon them.

his own avatar for edgefusion

This was a quick one. If you want me to change something, send me a PM.

Since it has some nudity in it, I made two versions.

"Safe" version

"Safe-but-a-bit-manlier" version :lol

Thank you sooo much! It's brilliant! I laughed for about 10 minutes before I could even save it to my desktop. :D

Also this was not a request from this thread but something I made for a person on another forum.

EDIT: Also also, holy shit 1,000 replies o____o


This is one of my favorite pokemon! Nothing beats a very fast encore. I would like to claim it and offer thanks for this obscenely cute avatar.

Spoken like somebody who registered too late to get on the list. ; )

Dude, that's beautiful. Could you make the goggles red with yellow borders and add the small little belt/buckle across the chest?

Ok, i'll do it!

Just give me a few hours (at worst)!
Do you want the eyebrows or not?


Meanwhile i made something... Who you gonna call?

(i might do the Ghostbusters next if nobody else is already on them!)
 
First of all thanks to BowieZ for the compliments... glad you like my style, but i usually just start drawing, inspired by the character and without thinking too much about the design choices! :D

I had time to modify Raz, i added the belt (don't know why i forgot it before!) and changed the goggles to red (i remember they were red in the game, but the image i took as a reference had blueish lenses...), i hope you like them better now...
Pardon me but adding the yellow outline would be a pretty long thing: i merged the levels and i had to to it from scratch...

You are a prince among men Mdk7. I've claimed the eyebrow avatar, if someone wants the eyebrowless one they're welcome to it.

:lol You welcome!
I had fun making Raz, he's such a cool character...

I've viewed about 30 or so pages so far. Sadly, there hasn't been one I've liked that's available.

It's cool though. Hopefully there's another S-Nauts Avatar thread so I can get in a request. I surely don't want to get banned for asking for one now.
