Sykes is my character for a "super hero/villain" rp guild I've started up.
He was very mentally unbalanced as a young child, and through a traumatic event of witnessing a murder whilst in hiding his psychic abilities manifested. The event was not something that he was afraid of, but more so he embraced it.

The madman ripped the entire carnival from it's place in reality and shot it into a large pocket dimension of his own making. He twisted and warped the few that survived and used the corpses of those whom had died as his audience, stapling their faces in smiles and staking them to the seats on the rides and benches within the main tent.

He now crosses into the human realm to find more attractions and audience for his show, a show he INSISTS others may see whether they want to or not since he knows they'll love it to death.

(terrible pun but come on comic related so has to be lol)
His powers include controlling minds, summoning his "freaks" to help him from other area's (mental thralls whom through grafting and sick surgery have become monsters), and teleporting short distances by warping reality to his whim.

Any interested in playing this game (yes there are stats and dice involved) just hit me up via comment or note and I'd be more than happy to link you to where it's being hosted.

Interesting character design~ I like it.

Ah...nnn...I would join, but I'm terrible with things like that and I don't have as much time as I'd like, to play...I'd play maybe twice, then never have a chance/time to play again. ^^;

Thanks and yeah, sucks if you can't be active.
Though I made it because the old rp guild I ran (nfs) required you to post quite a bit to be competative (aka the more you posted the stronger your character was).
This one not so much, it's just "if you where active during the week you gain a few power points" rather than basing it off "how" active you where as NFS did.

Ha-ha, sounds more complex and time-consuming than I first thought! I doubt I could keep up with anything like that, ever. Though, if you ever need help with anything, I'm always willing to be helpful to the best of my meager abilities. :D

I agree that's it's definitely an interesting character design. Though I would expect something that was a little bit more carney-esque or evil/creepy about his outfit. Aside from the man-eating hat, he looks pretty normal XD

The curtails are a nice touch. For some reason I really like them.

I'm not sure how you are on people giving criticism, but I'll point out some things I noticed. Yell at me if you don't like me critiquing your stuff xD His staff is a little bowed, which I understand would be hard to make straight. I'm not sure why, but his right arm particularly looks quite cardboardy and flat. It seems like it's bending at an awkward angle and significantly shorter than the other arm (which looks a little long to begin with).

The shading style seems to work, but if you are going to use so many different shades, then I don't think that you should leave such a big space of the "unshaded material." It seems like there's a big stripe of material that's just untouched and it stands out to me. Also, is there two light sources? Cause I don't understand the white shading on his left arm that doesn't correspond with the other shading marks.

Anyway, sorry if you don't want the criticism.... I just take pictures apart like that when I look at them because a lot of my friends have made me their official critic XD But just a note, this is a lot more sophisticated than your past stuff. You're definitely improving as your style changes. Keep up the good work ^^

Nah, I like crit.
As for his outfit, I wanted him to be quirky, not to flamboyant and colorful, yet not to normal either.

Basically enough that when one looked at him they'd be confused as to exactly what to think, thus the simplicity of his basic out fit whilst his northern regions being a bit more out there.

As for his staff.... yeeeaaaaahhhh, drawing a straight line is hard lol, if I put a background up on him with his dark colors it'd be a lot less noticeable, but my only other option is using a line tool for straight lines, which when used on large objects is just... well out there.

As for multiple light sources there are indeed, it's hard to get it since I didn't move on with his bg, but basically imagine he's center ring with a few spotlights on him which would cause the shadows to skew slightly.

Looks awesome. Creepy, maniacal, and suave.

Well, to make a long story short... she hung herself!

I should upload some sketches I did of his new costume, had a ton more fun making it darker and more twisted, less generic with the suit (over extended tails, more creature like things and mouths, etc)
:iconorionhime:
You seriously should! I wanna see more!
