Description Ernie's one of Ronnie's gang, and sort of the goofball, or the Potsie so to speak lol He's the son of a renowned Italian chef, and if first love wasn't fixing cars, he'd follow in his father's footsteps and become a cook. Though Ernie's more a fan of the showmanship of cooking but being a klutz, he tends to waste a lot of food in failed attempts, much to his father's chagrin. Other than that, Ernie's an easy going, fun guy though such a loser with his lack of a sweet ride. . .

I worked on the lineart for this for like a solid two hours on the new OC 4.5ePlus, but just as I went to save it (after checking vigorously to make sure there was a way to save, after testing out glitches) the program goes. "nah. not to day" and SHUTS THE WHOLE DAMNED PROGRAM DOWN without WARNING. so I lost ALL my work. and. I was devastated to say the least. I was almost done. So, I went to traditional medium, good ol brush and ink, and just scanned the hell out of it at 600dpi, so it'd look better shrunken down. I hate nothing more than wasted time with nothing to show for it.

He's cute. I love the twisting pose and that little loser detail of the card in the spokes. Heehee!

D:!?!?!!? Where did this one come from? He's aweshum. I like the tid-bit of info on him Dx and I want to see MORE. His expression is 'aw' and the stance on the bike is cool. It's hard for me to draw backshots but you do it amazingly.

Wow..Ernie is so adorable, and he's a klutz to boot! I love his little curly poof, smaller than your previous characters, and the added bonus of his lack of a proper ride adds more to his adorability. I like his little bike, and the little card attached to. All the small details in this picture make it stand out to me! The thought of Ernie in a chefs hat stumbling around the kitchen is very endearing to me. I love your new character!

man, that sucks about losing all your hard work there, Fyuvix. That is definitely a big downfall to digital media is that it can really screw you over.

That said, I really like this! That bicycle is just amazing, girl, and Ernie too! I like the color scheme to Ernie against that awesome color of blue for his bike.

First, i love the fact that even though he's aiming to be a cook, that he smokes XD

Two, like everyone else, im amazed at how awesome of a bike you made

Third, I think he might have the second (or third. He's somewhere up there) smallest butt in your cast of characters O-o.

Oh Ernie klutzy pancake butt
For food and cars the lad's nut
Can't roast a bird to save his life
Each culinary task brings strife
He's got no ride because he's broke
But stuck an ace in his bike spokes
To make it sound like he's got wheels
Alas... it's failure that he feels

ThirdPotato In reply to LilChu [2008-10-04 06:06:43 +0000 UTC]

Haha I wonder if its a sort of stockholm syndrome XDD J/K

I imagine he was friends with the original leader of the gang, Johnny, who dies eventually, then crooked Ronnie takes over.

Thanks so much! Ever heard of Google Sketchup? It's a free 3D modeling program; you can also download other ppl's models for free. It makes for GREAT reference! OHHhh you should totally do some sweet plane models!! lol Its easy to use and comes with a free tutorial n.n

ThirdPotato In reply to DingoPatagonico [2008-10-04 06:17:26 +0000 UTC]

Haha Its okay! I know how that is lol. We had to use Maya (the biggest fanciest 3D program lol) and my brain LITERALLY exploded when I opened the program XD

SmokedOyster In reply to ThirdPotato [2008-10-04 08:37:13 +0000 UTC]

I use Maya every day.

The brain explosions do not stop. Be glad you got out when you did

ThirdPotato In reply to SmokedOyster [2008-10-04 16:17:25 +0000 UTC]

XD Don't I know it. I rendered a whole room in it; Its the reason I didn't get into animation. I did well, best in my class according to the prof who wanted it for the college catalogue, but even still, I didn't care to use it after that. The only thing I like about Google Sketchup the best is the fact that it's free (though I have maya too) and you can download other people's models for FREE. which his great reference.
