The result of me thinking a bit too much into what CL would look like anime-style
THE LYOKOFREAK DOCUMENTARIES
Two documentaries I've made as part of the forum's Birthday.
Code Lyoko in a nutshell A short video (two minutes) covering the history of the show, and the reactions to Season Two - basically I made this to try out the concept.
Lyokofreak One Year On A seven minute recap of the forum's history, members and prospects - I've tried to cram as much of the forum's spirit into this as possible, so I hope you enjoy - oh and watch carefully, you might spot yourself in here.
TRAILERSNEW!
Code Lyoko, Full Force An attempt at making a trailer for the show - I'm pretty proud of it! - love to hear any feedback you have
MUSIC
Code Lyoko Slow Mix Much requested, here we have the half-speed version of World Without Danger - kindly hosted by Osiris on his website, WORSHIP HIM!
MUSIC VIDEOS
Well after those pretty dismal videos I uploaded recently, here's my first proper 'Music Video' - a seven minute monster using the song 'Broken English', by the group Schaft. I'm pretty proud of it, given that I made it in one day.
Oh, and yes, that is a 55-second audio clip of Adolph Hitler at the start (if you're put off by it, skip to the end of those 55 seconds where the proper song begins) - I honestly have no idea what it's there for, but I couldn't remove it so I synched it to Franz's video-diaries!
My first attempt at a fan video - it isn't much, just a scene from New Order with new music dubbed over it - pretty bad I guess as you can still hear the original music but I aim to get better.
SIR JEREMIE BELPOIS
Taelia requested Jeremie drawn as a knight, so I knocked this up some months ago - it's not my best work but it's fairly good I guess - inspiration was Aragorn from Lord of the Rings.
GENERAL MATTHEW DELLA-ROBBIA
Given that we've never seen him in the show I decided to go a bit wild on designing Odd's dad - and after reading Matt Geczy's life history thought I'd mimick it a bit.
So, here is Odd's Father, General Matthew Della-Robbia.
SISSI IN LYOKO - AS ODD!
I suggested this concept and YDV said he'd draw it, so I thought I'd also try my hand. Considering it's my first ever attempt at Sissi or a Lyoko-form I like it - and yes, her hair is trying to do 'that' thing.

DARK ODD 1
This and the following are basically two versions of the same thing - a nightmare vision Odd has after an argument with his Dad over joining the army after school. He sees himself cut, bruised and weilding an assault rifle - I was hesitant to put these pics up but then saw that the same model of rifle had already featured in 'Common Interest' so decided to try.
DARK ODD 2
This is a tidier version of the above - I redrew the hands, repositioned the gun and altered the boots. General Della-Robbia has been removed and the shading is also a lot less 'mascara' like. It's better for it.

FANCOMIC - PART 1
While bored last night I asked for ideas for what to draw and Dylan made a suggestion, which blossomed into this - it's quickly and shoddily drawn but I like it for some reason. I already have ideas for more installments.
WILLIAM IN LYOKO - AS ULRICH!
Again another non-team-member virtualised with the clothing of one of our heroes. However this one is played straight and not for gags after I decided William actually went quite well with Ulrich's costume.
BAD@$$ YUMI
Another illustration from a story I wrote. The situation is that Yumi is facing down a truck that is trying to kill her. She's holding a handgun, wearing a leather jacket, and looks a lot like Carrie-Ann-Moss.

SISSI - ORIGINAL LYOKO DESIGN 'URBAN WARRIOR.'
This picture just elvolved during a boring lecture today. I've also wanted to draw this for a while. I love the costume, but I think this tracing lost something that the original sketch had.

FRANZ HOPPER
I drew this after Season Two started as an alternate design for Franz Hopper - as you can see he's a very different animal to the one in the show. Inspiration came from my father and Gendo Ikari of Neon Genesis Evangelion.
http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c345/ ... 7ebc19.jpg
SHARON HOPPER-GRANT
A fancharacter design for Aelita's mother, and strikingly similar to the woman seen in the end credits (which I had not seen at the time). She does look a bit young however for marriage and childbirth - maybe this was her in her university days. Influences are a drawing of Aelita and Seras Victoria from the anime Hellsing.
http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c345/ ... bd35fa.jpg
STAR-TREK CROSSOVER
This was going to be a fancomic following the consequences of Odd playing a Star Trek DVD marathon on the supercomputer, but ended up as a pair of drawings. I was also going to draw Jeremie as Geordi LaForge, Yumi as the Borg Queen and Aelita as T'Pol from Enterprise, but those pics aren't finished yet.
ULRICH AS CAPTAIN JEAN-LUC PICARD:
Weirdly, if you take away Ulrich's most distinctive feature ( ) he turns into a young Patrick Stewart. As for why he's smiling, presumably he's looking forward to blowing stuff up real good with the Enterprise-D.
ODD AS COMMANDER WILLIAM RIKER:
Likewise, give Odd a beard and tidy his hair up and viola - Johnathan Frakes. As for why he's peeved - well either he still doesn't look old enough to buy booze from Ten-Forward, or he's ticked off that a 'certain something' came along for the ride;
"jIH vIHHa’ ghaj it! mIghtaHghach tail!"
That is Klingon, according to an online translator. I think the meaning is obvious.
XANA IS TIM BURTON?
I went to see 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' the night I drew this and afterwards could not resist. Oh, and Hopper is his show-self.
JIM IN LYOKO 'ZEUS GOD OF LIGHTENING!'
A request by Taelia which I hope she'll enjoy. Jim is basically wearing a maroon undershirt (the collar just sticks out), and kahki trousers. Over that however he's got large pads of Kevlar and leather body-armour. Metal armour on the wrists and face complete the set. His bo-staff is a titanium shaft with a graphite core, making it an excellent conductor for his lightening abilities. Oh, and my first pic with colour elements.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Again I decided to draw a situation I suggested as a joke over in the 'how about a Christmas Special' thread. Like the Jim picture this is also another foray into a touch of colouration - I hope everyone gets a laugh or two.
Oh, also noteable as my first ever picture that required no tracing whatsover, this is the original sketch, and my first attempt at a monster. I personally think the little dude looks perfect, but I'll leave you to voice your own opinions.
This trio of requests came from HvonM for his story in progress 'Into The Eye Of The Storm,' and I'm very proud that he came to me for them. Each picture is of an officer of the Bundesnachrichtendienst or BND, the German Security Services, and all three become entangled in a web of epsionage when technology recovered from a disused factory in Paris goes missing...
ULRICH STERN - 'MITTEL'
Having left France after failing to find a university in that country, Ulrich moved back to Germany at his parent's urging. Now in his twenties he is a 'Mittel' or 'Agent' of the BND.
Personality-wise he's much the same, but still pines for Yumi.
I have to say I like how Ulrich's face and torso look but there is something about the legs that I don't feel went right.
HELMUTH KLAUSBERGER - 'LEITER'
Ulrich's 'Chief' or 'Leiter', Hemluth is a capeable officer of the BND but his achievements are overshadowed by those of his older brother Dietrich. Helmuth is consequently very unsure of himself and a lot of turmoil brews within him.
This picture was the first I turned out and might be the best - references included Theo Gauthier for the hairstyle. Originally he was drawn with the right arm leaning on top of Jeremie's 'Control Console' but I moved his hand into the coat pocket instead as the original pose looked to casual.
DIETRICH KLAUSBERGER - 'DIREKTOR'
Dietrich is Helmuth's older brother, a very by-the-book man who is also extremely proficient in his role as a Direktor of the BND. Dietrich is also well-known by the other agents for his fighting-spirit, and looks liekly to become the next 'Director-General' of the Bundesnachrichtendienst.
HvonM suggested a business-suit for his attire, and this brought to mind this mental image of Dietrich which translated well to paper, though finding a good photo of a suit to work from was murder.
I think I captured his expression nicely - you just know that despite looking like a desk-jockey he's wearing a pair of armpit-holsters and has a knife tucked into his sock - do not mess with this guy. You have been warned.
I hope HvonM is pleased with these and if there's any errors with the pictures or the text I'll gladly change them.
ENJOY!
YUMI & JIN ISHIYAMA IN LYOKO
G-Force requested a shot (honouring me greatly in the process) of Yumi and Jin Ishiyama from the 'Retelling Series' back to back and in pre-fight poses in reality. I hope he can forigve me for tweaking the setting a bit but I really wanted to try drawing Lyoko-forms a bit more.
Those familiar with Japanese Culture might notice I've also reversed Yumi's kimono to right-over-left, because the way she wears it for the show (left-over-right), is apparently only done with a corpse that is to be cremated.
I'm not quite certain about this pic - I'll soon take a whack at G-Force's other request of Jin and Ulrich kick-fighting.
And if this picture had to have a caption - YUMI: When Mum said she wanted a Family Portrait I don't think she quite had this in mind.
JIM IN LYOKO
Many of you are familiar with the drawing I did for Taelia of a Lyokan design for Jim, well here's an awesome coloured version Shanester has done! Honor him!
Sometimes you scare me TB3. For not knowing Jin's Lyoko form at all, you can REALLY darn close. For curiosity's sake, Jin's Lyoko outfit is similar to the one Seraph wears in The Matrix.
Essentially Jin is supposed to look like a Chinese hitman. He's dressed sharply while not looking too stiff and like a businessman. Altough on Earth he loves to use his feet, on Lyoko he uses two handguns and plays a support role. It also goes without saying that his fighting stance in Lyoko would resemble something that Dante from Devil May Cry might do thanks to the weaponry.
--------------------
Ok....random author's notes aside it's time for me to actually give you the praise you deserve. First off this WILL be posted on my website. www.freewebs.com/jinishiyama and of course the credit will be given to your wonderful artistic talents. Looking at your previous drawings I thought a dynamic action pose would be a good change of pace for you.
Glad you liked the pic G-Force and I went and researched Jin a bit (something I like to do for all my pictures), though I missed the bit about him having a pair of hand-guns. I then searched the net for pictures of Seraph and dudes in martial arts kick-stances. You see the result.

hey. if your still doing requests, ive got one here related to my fic (could also be mistaken/considered as Jeremie's Lyoko form ). Ill pm you the details as soon as I can.
I love the Roachster with the hat on that's very cute.
It took me a bit to realize that was the scanner, I guess I was expecting a tower, bit when I think abut it the scale would have been way off if it was.
When you said you tried color I was expecting computer added color.
There are a lot of good free grafic editing programs out there, maybe you should give them a try (or maybe someone here should try to colorize them for you).
Avatars / Signature Image made from TB3's original art.
Wow... you're very, very, good TB3! I know you're getting showered with requests right now, but I was hoping LATER (I really don't want to pressure you... I sort of know what it's like, though people don't really ask me to draw anything for them. I could, though.) you could possibly sketch a pic of Hope, aka "Ms. Jamison" from my When One Door Closes fic? Normally I would do it myself, but unfortunately my scanner's unavailable (No, XANA didn't shut down the vDNA codec ) at the moment. I can send you a description, if you like... I dunno if you read it all before. Here's a link, if you're interested. (She has no Lyoko avatar.. yet. shut up, i'm still working on ch.15! xD)
I enjoy computers/programming and my favorite RPG class is a mage. So perhaps a staff that can program/materialize things into Lyoko?
The rest is up to you. I really want to see what you can come up with =)
-Halo
Yarr, this be a signature.
Formerly known as Halospree13.
A little update regarding everyone who has asked for fanart by myself - I am working on it, but until I go back to university I don't have access to a scanner...to transfer...and virtualise the pictures.
You have just read the worst. pun. ever. You may now kill me, and the requests should be uploaded by the end of January at the latest.
Cheers!
