PIC: Chibis of the CSP

...well, because no one will understand who all these extra random chibis are without a guide, I decided to draw one. Mostly for my own benefit, which is why it's all rather thrown together into a single page, and why the names attached are more identifiers than they are names. If you've ever wondered how the chibification process goes, it's something like this. XD

Oh, and due to a lack of good colour references, I guessed on a number of things here. If you see anything you think ought to be changed, tell me! This is very tentative, and if you tell me now, I should be able to correct it before I post the next few pictures that have these guys in it!

Warning: large image








...so, thoughts?

*blink* I didn't think that you sent me a picture of Carnot at all...*goes to check* No, Bar�re, Couthon, Billaud-Varenne, Herault, Prieur de la Marne...no Carnot. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place?

But yes, that's what happened - I managed to eliminate the mostly obviously wrong of the skin color graduations (damn those blue undertones, that's all I'm saying...)

Just with the way everything is exaggerated in chibi-form, they would probably turn into sideburns of doom and would scare everyone else around him by being so unfamiliar. XDD

No, I must have forgotten. -__-; This (on this page, if you scroll down to the "c"s http://membres.lycos.fr/discours/) was the one I meant; I have it in one of my art books, so I know that it's really supposed to be Carnot. But I think it too comes from sometime after Thermidor. In trying to find it again online just now though, I found an anonymous drawing of him from the Collection Carnot (http://www.diagnopsy.com/Revolution/images/0424.jpg), which I find somewhat perplexing, since he looks older but is dressed in a style more similar to that of the early 1790s than he is in the other portraits... Perhaps it's just because he has his hair pulled back instead of pushed forward though.

You did a fairly good job with the skin tone of the majority of them, certainly.

As in "I have sideburns. Of DOOM. Be afraid, be very afraid"? XD
