Presets & Markings / First Preset... Like Ever.
« on: April 23, 2015, 07:12:48 am »
So I decided to make my own preset for my main character, Ahzrukhal. I needed his preset for a roleplay so I couldn't really wait in hopes my request would be accepted.
I decided to make a Devientart purchase of a MASSIVE texture pack.. About 150 items full of custom made textures, for about 3 dollars. Not much so why the hey not.

There was one texture I did like but only the head, whilst i manage to find a free texture that was more designed for a wolf preset. But I love the illusion of the texture giving a bulky appearance around the front forelimbs. So I began to edit bits of the head from  the lion preset and the wolf preset. And course adding the colors and so forth i came up with this...

My character carries a massive scar along his right side that was received by his mother when he was young. A twisted sign of 'rite of passage' and so forth. Thus he wears bone armor in a way to hide his past that tends to haunt him. Well there's more to that story but this isn't a biography page. Just click signature for all that mess if you're curious.






What I hope to improve on.
- Improve of scarring texture.
- Experiment with different textures.
- Eye/mane experimentation.
- Creative my own texture that is more short fur bulky build *Almost American Bully fur texture*.

HEY Y'AALLL!!!!
Okay really need to stop listening to Outkast, haha

But besides that, thank you for sacrificing your time that is OH SO PRECIOUS in even sitting down to read this biography. Now I'm not as epic in storytelling like Optimus Prime, or mufasa-- but I will manage with some brief summary. Now where to start.... Of course of my out of the ordinary birth. You seee *Past twinkling background sounds*

At the time I was practically stating 'let me out' my parents were visiting Japan to see family in Kyushu. My father, a strong African American police officer and my mother worked for a Apparel company in regards to UI designer. You can say I was made in Texas but born in Japan.. You see the conflict here *In claiming Citizenship wise* Suppose I was just to excited to see everyone and 'poof' on the day of Valentines, I came out to the shimmering world of odd looking people; crying and causing a hissy fit- rocking a yellow PJ set that could have been TOO big for my 5 pound and 9 ounce self. So the name was claimed as Tora, Japanese variation of the word 'tiger'

so I'm pretty mutty well in personal opinion, 50% African American 'brotha' 25%Japanese 25% Native American(Blackfoot)

I most of my life I had been a independent spirit. I hated being offered help, "Hell I got two legs and arms with a brain. I CAN DO IT!" That was most of my mentality majority of my life. I kept people at a distance but was wasn't bashful nor shy to stir away from making friends. Emotionally i am built like a fortress and it will take a crazy person to climb over the wall to peel away the deepest layers of me.

Okay, that sounded a bit morbid now that i think about it... But not that crazy I have a girlfriend that provides 70% percent of it *HEHE SHOTS FIRED! Helmet PLS!* Anywhom BACK to bio!

This mentality-- the whole hard exterior personality  was implemented most of my school life, thus crimped me in making life long friendships, cause of my disconnected demeanor, can honestly tell you I have had 4 friends that I deem close to me. I can say I have a massive load of Acquaintances than I do bonding friendships.

Goes to show, I am a nomad, I'm always hoping here, and there. Never really stagnant, fills my need to travel- seeing new faces, experiencing the culture around me. Hopefully as I get older, I would love to make a world diary of my travels to places. Course I love being close to home and in my house, but for prolonged periods will drive me insane. Not much of a gamer either- I used to be when I was in my teens, but now- Responsibilities such as money investing holds importance in my life. Course I'll play a simple mobile game, or a 3DS game from time to time. But anything in regards to hardcore PC/Console gaming. Gonna be honest with you-- I don't got the money nor time.. So most conversations tend to end up explaining what the game is about than experiences, haha.

But I can tell you this... I love anime-- Like a passion (Believe it's called weaboo, or whatever the hell kiddos call it now-a-days), curse of living in Japan for too long, haha. Even at my Job I'm surround by anime as a Assistant Graphic Designer for Crunchyroll. Actually, overall, I love animation, it's just a format I understand and holds such a massive amount of creativity of expression on a whole new level compared to paintings and/or drawings. I do my fair share of animation shorts, doing some silly Youtube voice over dubs as a hobby. Even wedging some music editing to pass by the time.

For the little creeper in us all.. Why the hey not..

What Tora likes!
o KILL LA KILL (LIKE LOVE KILL LA FREAKIN' KILL... Ryuukoooo~ Be my wife!)
o Generally, anything that regards animation, I will watch.
o Kids *As long as they aren't mine! XD*
o Kendo sparring
o Mixed Martial Art combat
o Football
o Traveling
o Native American traditions
o Japanese Culture *Since my ancestral blood traces back to the Fujiwara clan, I would kinda of be doing a disservice of being ignorant of my heritage.*
o My bull terrier Anais, and my Pet Tarantula, Bumi
o Supernatural Folklore
o History Channel mini series shows
o Beef - I mean I like chicken too. But something about beef is good... Mmm
o Tattoos - Oooooooo Tattoos
o Handheld Gaming
o Drawing Original Characters
o Role playing, really helps with making unforgettable original creations.
o Summmerrrrrr~

o Studying Big Cats, They're soo COOL!
o Camping
o Learning on being an Earth bender! - Not really, but would that be cool tho!?
o Doing Voice-Overs!!!!!!!

o School Spirit - College is to blame... GO TEXANS! AYYYYYYYYOOO OSCAR P!
o Off-roading *I have been taking a high interesting investing in a ATV in the future, it looks fun!*


What's punch in the face Worthy!(Dislikes)
o Generally people ignorance - Rather that be superficial, ANYTHING- trust me there's no nitpicking over What I like about people or not cause it's just too much to list, just generalizing is so much easier.
o Talking in a mass group of people - It's literately energy draining. And sure I'll like a occasional group chit chating but there's a limit.. You know. Limit of putting up with you in one seating.
o Akame Ga Kill anime - Breaking my royal jewels... It was so terrible. If you read the Manga THEN watched the anime.. You WILL BE DISAPPOINTED.
o My procrastination - I'm even doing it now as we speak... One of the reasons my DA isn't loaded with artwork I have done.
o Most fandoms - Okay it sounds like I'm contradicting myself, seeing as how I am into anime. I for one am a person would will give a generalization to what I like, why I like it and leave it up to the person to decide their own curiosity and to pursuit it. I tend to find myself to enjoy certain amounts of content if I'm not 'forced' or 'drowning' in constant reminders of it. Basically when a fanbase slowly declines.
o My Road Rage - I tend to be aggressive and excessively vulgar in certain aspects, and the road is one of them. You have two types, people.. Ones who think they can drive, and people who simply CANT. On the highway i find myself thinking *Specially if there are speed demons on the road* that they are flaunting to see how big their reproductive appendage is to others.
o Common Sense, and the people whom lack it - I'll admit, I find it as appealing.. Almost an attractive trait of both Sexes. It shows you are aware of your existence and your surroundings, take to intricate details. Those who seem to not poses even the BASIC form of it.. Are more than likely be the one dying in the Zombie Apocalypse *If it come to happen*
o Lack of patriotism - Seriously, it truly disheartens me that in a world we live that many seem to down put their born land of origin. Or even attempt to be knowledgeable about their own country and its future. Even worst that many individuals tend to not make ANY effort. Such as you don't like the structure of government? What are you even doing, other than your mundane life and repeat.

Request a Preset/Marking / Sparta Helm, Ahzrukhal preset request.
« on: April 07, 2015, 10:09:12 pm »
I have been doing some scouting around for preset makers from moderate-Advance skill range. Since I lack skills in making presets, I would like for my Ahzrukhal to have the best visually tone preset with someone knowledgeable of how to properly lay the details out.


Full Body Reference
Ahzrukhal(Ahz for short) willing to give a bigger file if needing to pull out color pallet.

Visual characteristics
+A scar along his back and comes partially across the shoulder blade
+Pinstripe trim around each digit pad(Fingers)
+Lighting bolt brows
+Eyes are orange (Coloring mistake in adding yellow)
+The Sclera (Whites of the eyes) Are a dark red, can almost be mistaken for black

Preferred notes
+Ahzrukhal wears Rib Armor a item found in the pawsome item pack to hide his back scar. I wouldn't mind if the scar is a bit bigger so it's partially visible underneath.
+Wanting the eyes to have slits rather than the standard pupils
+Added fur texture
+ add Lighting bolt brows
+ Give Ahzrukhal a small orange glow in eyes [No need to add yellow]

SPECIAL NOTES
For his pelt fur, I would like to keep his color along the red spectrum. A MUST dark red Like a Maroon or Oklahoma University Crimson Red.. And that can be designers preference. As long as you can maintain a dark red trait, it can be tweaked as much as the designer wishes.
Bottom line...
A dark red that's not too bold that the markings are hard to see. But not too soft where markings pop out like a sore thumb. A nice medium.
