Parrish Concept Illustration

[Cj]

okay i've had a cool idea inspired by you mad lads (and lassys)

how about a proper Parrish concept drawing (i havent really ever done one) my drawing so far in all my concept work have been figures etc and this is a perfect project to put into my art portfolio which i will be submitting in a few months to get into college

this would take alot longer though maybe months cos i've never done it and cos i'd have to research everything about the figure and the set WE give her, but i could post the work as its progressing and peoples can give tips and criticisms

so heres my question

What set do we give her?

I've always wanted to do the scene in Nylon Angel when Parrish is staring out at the world from Daacs tert hide away as the tert war is going on yet the view is still beautiful. (i'm pretty sure that was the setting anyways thats the one stuck in my mind )

any suggestions welcome, bare in mind i'll have to draw it so if its a fight scene we'll have to discuss the look

[Sheyana]

Sounds cool! I wouldn't have a clue what set to giver her though...although seeing the bit where the feathers fall on her in NA would be pretty cool, all the Muenos bowing down, Sto in the background, and Parrish in the doorway spitting out blood angrily... ;D...the Daac scene would be really cool as well...

[Cj]

i'd luv that scene too its just i think ders too many characters for my first big one but maybe i cud do the feathers falling on Parrish that cud work.....hmmmm her looking up in shock and feathers and blood falling down, that wud look so cool

i've started sourcing reference images and have a few good'uns so if peeps dont make any demands on scenes soon i'll go ahead with the staring out the window one, just cos i've a month of summer left and have about six or more projects on the go so will have to work on this quick

Alright CJ,

How about an exhausted, haunted Parrish sprawled on the "throne" for the Muenos from NA? Just focus on the throne and Parrish in a rundown semi-mod tek room. I was thinking something voodoo-like with the bloody feather crown like Sheyana mentioned.

Of course, I like the panoramic scene you described with Parrish taking it all in. Way cool!

[Sheyana]

Hmm, well maybe you can do the feather crown one when you've had some practice, and do the panoramic one as this project??

[GrimmRiffer]

All cool ideas. Ya don't want more do ya?

Jamming the gun into Daacs neck?
Sprawled against the wall with the terro standing over her (the one that talked to her)?

[Cj]

Jamming the gun into Daacs neck hell yeah! that wud be quite cool, i did wanna keep it to one character but maybe i cud do both.....i need practise in city scapes (cos i luv em and cant draw em) but Parrish kicking ass wud be more fun......

everybody describe their version of Daac NA for me (although i'm liking the Daac CD thank you Marianne long hairs my bag)

shaven head, bit of a pretty boy tall and that "oh he's good looking" look dark aura etc any suggestions??

we all know i see Parrish as an angular faced narrowed eyed i'm gonna kick you in the nuts kinda grrl!

I'm liking the feathers too sheyana has placed an idea of Parrish looking up inot feathers and blood that i cant seem to shake and the throne is a striking Parrish image

i'm seeing a problem here peeps......me making up my mind heehee

[Darkhorse]

CJ,

You think you've gotta problem? What about us drooling over our monitors in anticipation.

You've got some cool scenes there. I admit I'm kinda partial to the Daac-gets-gun-in-neck-WAKEUPCALL that GR suggested. Maybe I'll draw it if you don't. I know I've got some pencils somewhere in a box covered with dust. Now I jus' need the time.

So how big would you like me to draw my stick figures? ;D

[Sheyana]

REALLLLY Big, so we can see all the detail! Cj, I think you're just going to have to do them all and never go back to school or studying...isn't it faaar more tempting?

[Chirugal]

CJ, I'd love to see Parrish sat next to the talking gnome outside M'Grey Island. Or standing next to fashion-victim Merry! In both she'd have a very irritated expression, methinks... not going to overburden you with ideas though.

Ooh, or Parrish by the river in MoVay after Roo's death. *sob*

[Cj]

ahh brain overload, i'm finished work in the next week, i'll then take sum reference shots and see what i can get
and i will draw stuff soon and post it up to sate darkhorse
