Banner/Mascot

So, any ideas for the banner or mascot? People can post their ideas/drawings here.

Panda's idea: Banner - girl, Mascot - Cerberus

Cerberus is the watchdog of the underworld, and by extension, Styx.

Going with that idea, here's a sketch I did. I might post an updated version.

Linked because it is huge.

Darn it Imageshack, let me delete my image.

Not just any girl. I've decided on "Persephone". Draw your own rendition of her.

If you want a guy....do Hades. "Hot" Hades. lol.

Persephone? Hmm. I'll go with that.

I do not like drawing males. ...Do not use that word. It makes me shudder.

How about a close up to Death's face, he has his hand near the "cam" with a blue flame on his palm? And his face looks like a skull with small red pupils? If you can't imagine, I'll try drawing it tonight ^^

Sounds a little bit... emo, in my opinion.

But hey, it's a good try. So sure, why not.

Nah, I agree.. it's pretty hard to draw too... I'll try to come up with ideas tonight.. like hades and persephone and other works of hell (DISREGARD THE PEANUT FOR CRYING OUTLOUD)

That is exactly why I used it~

I have to agree with Ninachan that it's a bit emo. But yeah, try it. If you can.

Updated version following the Persephone idea. Fear my awesome designing skills.

Linked because HUEG.

Wanted to get a devil girl thing going on but meh, I don't know. Those curls over her pointed ears are horns, in case you guys didn't get it. I also had half a mind to add a tail but I think it would look... more odd.
Any suggestion is welcome. This isn't final, after all. Might update again in the future depending on the feedback I get.

I just noticed the clothes somehow resemble a kimono or something. What was I thinking.

I like the colors. Where did you color this? And... how. I have no idea how to color mine.

I used GIMP. If you have that or photoshop, you can do this too. It takes too much effort though. I actually wanted to put highlights on the hair but I couldn't do it right. :3

...Well, if we had a tablet, coloring would be easier. You wouldn't need to scan in the first place. I do have photoshop, but I haven't been experimenting enough to actually know shit about it. Highlights? That would be hard and... unnecessary.

I meant light glare. Anyways, now's a good time to experiment. :3

Yep. Here's one experimenting with colors. Done in MSPaint, so don't kill me because of the quality. I still used the same design as before, no changes whatsoever.

Here's Persy!

Edit: I think I should make the horns larger. Okay, I will. But what about the tail? Should I?

You guys suddenly give me an idea.. about Persephone I mean..

That's good. Can you post it when you're done?

Yeah, can you post it?

i think it could be nice to have a guy picture too... that's my opinion.

Oh wow, Silvy, English. I'm just a lazy fag, that's why I don't have my own version of Hades. I will probably make one tomorrow or Sunday. I will connect it to Persy's picture somehow without it looking perverted.

Maybe I should try too. ...Just maybe.

Yeah, give it a try, too!

Update.

So, since I can't draw srsz shit, I decided to take a more... cartoonish approach. I used a different style because I can't seem to make good concepts when I use my usual style. Beware my hand and finger drawing skills.

I didn't change Persephone's design, and I couldn't imagine Hades not having flamy hair... of sorts. As for why they aren't wearing clothes, I wanted to change Persy's clothes, but couldn't come up with any at the moment, and I couldn't come up with clothes for Hades, either. I'll leave that up to you guys. THIS IS COMPLETELY SAFE, FUCK YOU PANDA.

Also note that Persy and Hades here is my first time using this style. I based it on another artist's style, but only on memory. ...I do not like stealing other people's style. I really hate myself right now because of this.

I drew them, then I experimented a bit more, resulting in the doodle of Ingo and Emmet(dudes at the top) I also thought of it as an opportunity to experiment with a shading style I came up with. No, I don't own the style, probably someone already beat me to it. If you look closely you'll see I derped with Ingo. FFF.

Last doodle is also Ingo, with me experimenting a bit more. And not shading wrong. The first doodle I drew here on this paper is that head in the middle. Cake, don't ask why I drew Zetsu, I just did, okay?

Long post is long. Boy am I high today.[strike]

they are naked, then? Is this safe~? Just kidding. IF YOU EDIT THIS AND THIS DOES NOT POP UP, I WILL LAUGH SOME MORE.

Ooooooooh. Emmet and Ingo are sooooo cute. Shading is okay.

Derp. I still really get bothered by that mistake I made. Also, Emmet was drawn first and that's why he looks better. Added Ingo there because of shading and well... why the heck not.

The shading isn't bad. It's okay. Not so noticeable. I don't even think I see it, or do I?
