Pandora-Tan Character Art

What's wrong with going off topic anyway? It's not like we're having a serious political debate or anything. This is a social forum and these threads are like conversations. Conversations evolve from what they started from and go off in all different directions. Let them grow, don't keep pinning their wings and reigning them in.
Like exodus says though, it's all on-topic as far as I can tell.

This thread was created so that people could discuss TJ's Pandora-tan (as well as other Pandora-tans that people create). If you want to discuss something different, do either in a thread already about that topic or start your own. It's disrespectful to the original poster if you derail their thread when there's still on-topic material to discuss (especially if they ask you to stop).

<analogy> Conversations do evolve from where they start, but it's not like you'd go to a meeting held for specifically discussing a certain issue and shift the topic of discussion - the meeting was held for a certain purpose. If you want to discuss something else, start your own meeting. </analogy>

I bet you're fun at parties :D
"Stick to the agenda! Harumph"
"Can I have a biscuit?"
"It says here on my clipboard that you've already had your alloted 3 biscuit maximum. Now, everyone gather round, first topic of discussion is me and my birthday"
"Vorporeal, me and the wife got you this, it isn't much but-"
"DID ANYONE MENTION GIFTS?! Gifts are item 14 on the agenda! We're still on item 2 for god's sake, me and my birthday"
"but I-"
"BUT I NOTHING! Put it in the bin. In fact, get out ... go on, get out and BUGGER the ruddy bloody hell off. OK comrades, gather round, you have one can of beer each, you can either drink it now or take it home with you"

Clippa, there is a whole Off Topic section where you can have your fun, ok?

Aw, come on, loosen up, my points are valid. I wouldn't buy a pandora in a shop if it had a scantily clad child plastered on the box. Not everyone who likes games is into jpop and tentacle rape, you know?

I've been in many a forums and it is prudent to stay on on topic and because this "not on topic" is going off topic I will stop. (I think we just pulled a "milhouse is not a meme").

I was hopping to see some new/reedited art when I came here...
About the panda, yeah it's a great mascot (I like the one with the pilots goggles and scarf) but this is a -Tan and if you cant understand that please refrain from posting.

Nyeah, I check threads titled "when will the pandora ship" and such to find out when the pandora will ship, only to find that the thread has descended into a 15 page bicker-fest with no real information at all. You don't hear me complaining, do you?
Discussing the artwork is on topic surely, I'm assuming the guy is after feedback if he's posting it here, or is it only good feedback he's after?
The drawing is smashing by the way, you have a talent :D

Back on topic!

I figured I'd have a go at this as well.
I started on a high-tech style, then came up with a more traditional dress version. Can't decide which I prefer, so here's both.

Those other *-tans might be cuter, but when it comes down to it, Pandora is the one who gets shit done.

(Please excuse the terrible image quality; snapped with my phone. Will clean up & scan later)

Nice. The one on the right reminds me immensely of Ichigo (from Bleach). Might be because I'm anticipating the completion of my download of the latest episode...

The hair of the one on the right seems a bit long, especially if it's a guy (which is what it looks like).
 
They look good. I can't wait for some high quality scans!

Vorporeal: Hmm... I think it looks like Himura from Rurouni Kenshin.

Yeah, a little too much. The original sketch looked less Kenshin-y and more feminine; when I can put together a better update I'll improve that.

The length of the hair is a reflection of the super-long AV-out cable provided for the Pandora :)

Very NICELY done sir!

As far as tan's go that one has my vote. Just the tattoo on her face gives the character her trademark... keep it! :D

Do you have a hi-res version of her, I'd like to see if I can start on making some wallpapers based on the pandora's resolution.

Those are great, I just wish my pathetic attempts with my Wacom Bamboo were half as good. Anyway, I especially like the little console flourishes on the backs of their hands. Action buttons on the back of his hand and gamepad on hers. Excellent.

Cool! Nice take on the subject, very different. I'm a bit more partial to the one on the left than the right, mainly because the one on the right feels too Asian-inspired. I like the pose though. Let's see some nice scans. ;)

Still working with the camera phone at the moment, sorry.
Drawn on the train.

(Had to mess with the brightness/contrast a bit too much)

USB on the headgear (which is based on the hinge LED design).
D-pad & keyboard on left arm, buttons & touchscreen on the right.
Shoulder buttons on the shoulder pads (of course).
Hip packs hold SD1 & SD2.
Expansion port is on the back of the armor (Evangelion power cable style)

Couldn't you have the power cable on the back, in the style of the Evangelion power cables?
I know she can run a lot longer on battery than an Eva, but still.

Child bearing hips and an existent backside? Does nothing for me.
Hmm. Yes, well he said he wasn't going for cute. I see what you mean though, she must do a lot of running or something.

Slim down the legs and beef up the arms a little, maybe? What do you guys think?
