Description
Once you get the hang of this human stuff, it's quite addictive.Next up in my Human and HTF series is Sam the tasmanian devil, created by Lauriepooh (HTF) / Laurensart (DA). He's one of those typical classic Net Friends with an easily recognizable appearance AND a vivid personality. Well, at least in my mind... Considering we haven't seen this guy very often ever since the tournament he was in ended, my interpretation might be completely wrong. Allow me to explain; if Sam's creator feels it's inadequate, I'll get rid of this piece.
In Sam I always saw this adventurous guy, exploring woods and mountaintrails, carrying a backpack with equipment he might need on his way-- including (of course) an encyclopedia on the area's flora and fauna. A boy scout, if you wish, but not one of those lame ones. This kid is tough, independent, kind-hearted and possibly successful as a leader in the future.
The hat was just inevitable, and there's also a similarity between human Sam's hair and HTF Sam's whiskers. Backpack and book should make sense if you've read the previous paragraph. In accordance to this personality, I also gave him zippered trekking trousers and a T-shirt, both in neutral, natural colours. Sam probably shouldn't be making long trips on his bare feet, but let's just assume he dropped his shoes somewhere nearby for this particular moment. After all, almost anyone who loves to be outside appreciates the feeling of grass between their toes.
All in all, I hope you like this one. Feel free to drop a comment.

Unfortunately not. It's been ages since I last submitted something good to dA, so I try to spend time on my own stuff whenever I get the chance. I'm also sorta moving out of the HTF fan business.
Hope you understand

Awesome!!! You did Sam! You know Sam has always been one of my favorite fan characters aside from Shelly (and not just because his creator and I are close friends ). I love your interpretation of him. And the way you've described him-- adventurous, independent, kind-- it's no wonder Shelly likes him. You've done an excellent job on this one.
No pressure, but I do hope you'll continue showing us your stylized interpretations of others. Every single one of these has been a treat, and there are a few other characters (like Fresko, SwiftPaws and either of Daemonarch's characters) whom I think really merit their own piece in this awesome series.

Thank you. I was hoping you'd like it, considering you value Sam that much. And indeed, while describing my view on him, I noticed the similarities to Shelly as well.
Don't know who will be next in this series, or when. One thing that's holding me back is that it'll just be more of the same... but I guess there are a few more characters out there who'd be interesting to treat similarly ^_^

Thanks Sam's not really well-known, but I love his design and I think he's very interesting.

Ahh, lil' Sammy I see. You know, even though I never caught on with this character, he's still got something that no other character does...A shroom-hat!
Seriously though, this fits in with the rest of your creative human-HTF pieces.

He's not very popular, I guess... Still, his human form was fun to design Thanks for the comment and
; good to know the piece is sort of liked despite Sam's lower popularity.

If just taking a quick glance you can almost think that he's reading a story to that mushroom
Nice to see that backgrounds are starting to show more of the "around" stuff

Heh, I guess it looks pretty weird at first sight
Sam's clearly not the most popular of the characters I've treated, but I'm happy with this piece's design and composition. Thanks for the , I'm glad you like it

To tell you the truth I was half expecting a human "mario mushroom person" hybrid for this one

Spectacular Job on this one
Im guessin these two are enviromentalist? (I probably spelt that wrong
)

Thank you Yes, I imagine Sam to be a big nature lover (but in a different way than Fauna). Saving the environment is in everyone's best interest, and I believe Sam would be a fitting choice if one of the characters should ever make a statement about it. Still, whether that's really true is up to the person who created this guy
