Description Sorry for all the grammatical errors, I'm not really very good in the English grammar!!!

Thank you a lot to for helping me to fix the grammar!!!

When I start this, I was so afraid of what could happen if I ost it, but I'm happy of doing right now!

Before someone say something like: WHO ARE YOU TO TELL HOW MAKE OCs?!?!?! Well, I not order you to read or follow what it says, I did this Tutorial for everybody that would like read it or for those new artists that doesn't know how start their stories and everything! Because today we seen so many gallery of people full of talent but that only does always bishonens or pretty girls (or boys that look like pretty girls), that doesn't risk to try new styles or ideas for fear of what other people could say!

So, if I insulted someone with this tutorial, I apologize and not take it personal because this is my opinion only!

Thank you a lot for your times guys! and thanks Frau for the advices!

ALRIGHT! I JUS CAN'T DO IT!! So, I will say it here! THANK YOU A LOT FOR ALL THE FAVS AT THIS TUTORIAL! You are totally awesome for it!!!

I used your tutorial to evaluate him, and realized that he is a normal lovesick teenager, not stereotypical at all. You've already helped me as much as I could have asked, thank you.

Kinda bothers me because you say most stories today are like that in the characters portion with the shota and moe crap. Thats not true, more like most crappy stories/ 20 episode long animes lol.

Other than that, its very helpful.

I really like what you did with this. It helped expand my repertoire of techniques to avoid the cliches. Although I have to admit sometimes I do make a cliche character, just to help hold the story together, because if you throw too much unusual and/or unexpected stuff at the audience they get lost/confused. Plus the cliche ones are just kind of fun to write sometimes too.

XxDaimonxX In reply to A-Morphine-Toast [2011-07-04 03:21:35 +0000 UTC]

I don't say that do cliche characters or stories is a bad thing, I just wanted to remember to the people that they can do a lot more than just that

some old jokes and stuff like that are funny to see sometimes, but not ALL the time

A-Morphine-Toast In reply to XxDaimonxX [2011-07-04 18:54:59 +0000 UTC]

I totally agree with that. I often find that my friends say things that help me make my characters unusual (mostly because we are just about the weirdest bunch of teenagers I've ever seen). I get inspired by lots of random things. I also have friends that I write with who help me develop characters and make them not boring. It's rather fun when we have brain storming sessions.

wow! this is great! but it has also opened another door to me. i need to have a story with my oc O.O
haha but thats so cool.
but the reason i gave her two eye colors was becuase i thought it was pretty, and made her not just another girl you see on the street. i guess it was more part of her story than just to make her look 'cool'. is that such a terrible thing?
anyways, this was awesome to read.

Great job, I have been thinking about making some OCs laterly and I will definitely keep this info in mind! (sometimes stereotypes seem to slip their way into characters of their own accord, so I will have to be extra careful of that)

Ienahria In reply to ??? [2011-06-30 23:53:51 +0000 UTC]

just feel like mentioning that the changing the letters to make the name "more special" point there can't really always apply since it wouldn't always be for that reason. an example of this are the names charles, carl and karl. they're all different versions of the same name. where i live k and s are much more common letters than c, thus i wouldn't feel like calling a norewgian character carl instead of karl. it's like if you have a russian character you'd rather not spell his name in an obviously american way.
of course i get how kriztal is a really weird name, but people keep saying "DO NOT EXCHANGE THESE LETTERS WITH THESE" all the time and isn't it easier to say that the name just needs to be believable to the setting?

XxDaimonxX In reply to Ienahria [2011-07-01 01:16:28 +0000 UTC]

well, yeah, you have right there! but this was mainly do it thinking in people from this continent (actually thinking even more in my country mexico) in which a lot of new drawers or writters make this only because they think it will make it look more original and nice. This rule chance according to some places like you said
