So...

Apparently people actually look at this thing, Sinclair. I think you had best get off your ass and post somethign, because lord knows they aren't coming here to see my work.

Anyways, here's a mini button I made for someone who actually wanted to link to CONVOKE!.



It's kinda cute!

Poor Tabar...

My buddy Tabar. It didn't turn out so hot. I mean, it looks like a person, but I don't think it looks like him. Here's the ref.

NOT a girl

I'm not done with this, but I don't think I'm going to finish it tonight. More fun with Corel 9. I'm starting to really like this program. This took maybe... an hour? There was also a rough sketch.

Essé

Yeah. More Corel Painter.

Here.

shplaint.

Yo guy. I painted one of your... guys.... guy.

Grabbed the newest version of Corel Painter. I was just fucking around. The response of the media is deadly true to life.

Busting a "Move"

Viva procrastination! Dude bustin out some Capoeira. Ref'd here.

Epic new lows!

Part of me resents spending time on something like this. Another part of me is glad I spent a few extra minutes on it, because what came before was dark and infernal.

Much like the subject of this "painting". He is angst.

ICO

Overhauling the way my OS looks. Custom icons for firefox and thunderbird. Here they are "in action":

poof balls

Here's some poof balls for ya.
I colour, then i erase what i've coloured.
Until all you get is a black dude.

Far From Yogourt

Inspired by that nintendo art show.

As you would expect to find in a biker bar...

More bald men.

Geezus.

fast faces

Just busted out some boring old faces as fast as i could at 4 30 in the morn.
Took about 10 min.

WTFUPDATE?

Another one of the banners from the other day. Also, I'm presently tinkering with the style and layout of the blog. Physically abuse me with comments.

EDIT: Uh oh. It wasn't supposed to be like this. Something got messy with the font. i will fix it as time allows.

Not "that" hand...

Yeah. Real quick hand. This one actually reflects a respectable ratio between time and "roughness". I'm finding that I have trouble fleshing out proportions initially. I'll start drawing at say, my wrist... wrok my way around to about the thumb, and then realize that while all the fingers are properly scaled, my starting point is now waaaaaay off. Same thing with faces. I think this is probably because I draw outlines rather than "shapes" like you're supposed to. Who knows...

Baldy

It took me WAY too long to do this considering how "rough" it looks. No reference.

Propagandas!

Not exactly sketches, but I made these today. There are a couple more.

Surely he is at least partially gay...

Real quick vader 2 colour sketch based on a set of Star Wars postacards I ordered. Proportions are way off.

O RLY?

Tom asked me to draw the bird from Ninjai for an avatar.

There it is.

Girl

Rouuuugh girl.

Ref'd here.

AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OMFG! ITS TEEN WOLF AND SHIT!

Started out as this really bad bad drawing of a weird druid guy. Then the universe righted itself.

chawisma

Here's a quick doodle of my down ass witda roun' ass.

Moon Healing Activation!

A pumpkin idea for Kellie. It's Luna from Sailor Moon.

Professor, what's another name for island treasure?

Bad colouring job. The lines themselves looked better, but they were too faint.

Absence in Long Form

Yeah. I had this comic in the works for my 1337th post on the 905 (my "LEET" post). That weird orange thing is supposed ot be a fetus. The first two frames are me sitting on the computer. The last frame is supposed to be like that scene in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

I had been abstaining from posting all day while I worked on it, then blew it by compulsively posting a snarky reply to some internet-dullard. After that, I didn't have the motivation to finish it.

Also, it's shit.

an inked fistful of copecks

here we go.... i didn't like the colour i did at all really. so here's the ink.

a fist full of copecks

Here's stage one of a new sketch straight from the D block of the Onastyev Projekts. Gonna post another with further progress I think.

Gay-volutionary

Wow.

So I started a sketch in photoshop. Real rough like. Then another layer, refined the sketch. Then exported it to Illustrator to try my hand at some smoooth lines. Then got frustrated with the inherent homsmexuality of Illustrator. Then brought the unfinsihed lines back to Photoshop to colour. Then, was not satisfied with the product. Then went back to the sketch and refined it more on another layer. Then did a shiite colouring job.

The moral of the story? Illustrator is the devil Also, apparently I can kind of draw sorta sometimes.

No reference for this one. Inspired by ian's work and methods no doubt.

revolutionary

Here's my little radical writer, Arkadiy Antapov. He writes his pamphlets and takes his photos while attending Krasnoyarsk State University. Full length graphic novel in the works.

Issue one: Hilarity ensues when, in the middle of a late-night hotboxing session in his dorm with some primo Ukrainian sticky-icky-icky, Arkadiy and his roomie get into an altercation with the Pizza Pizza guy over tipping in a totalitarian socialist mega-state. The Pizza Pizza guy makes an insightful counterpoint regarding Moscow's speculative fiscal policy in regards to oh SHIT, spetznaz comin' through the window! Stay tuned.

LCD screen system?

checkit, I thought that was a pretty cool cheapie project.

PS: self deprecation not needed, the pics look sweet

The Force is Strong with This One

I always fancied myself as more of a young Obi-Wan than an Anakin. Ref'd from here.

state power

Was looking at poster for that manga "Jin-Roh", did this up.

Padme

Didn't post yestrday, so I thought I'd put up two. These probably shouldn't EVEN count. They are ref'd from cartoon pictures, so don't congratulate me at all. They're basically just copies. And mediocre ones at that.

I kind of wanted to see simple simple cartoons of hot hot girls. And not animé. I think you know why.

skitch

Shipyard

So I think this was a bit ambituous for just a quick sketch. It's really rushed, but I thik the water looks kinda cool considering I spent all of 5 minutes on it.

Just feelin' 'er out.

Also, there's Gamera coming to tear shit up.

Ref'd from here.

bad

Bad, but quick (so its ok).

Self-portrait

Really really bad self portrait.

Just... really bad. I have pretty much no self-supporting concept of colour or form. I can hack it with a reference but without is trouble.

Also, I look like ken.

castle archer, defend us!

So here's what i was trying to colour. it went... badly. Not-posting-first-attempt badly.
By the by, how much space do you reckon we have to fill with this stuff?
I've been playing too much Prince of Persia. Drew this in about 15 minutes.
Speed is of the essence.

Katana

I coloured it in the wrong mode, so I had to fix the colours to make it look how I intended it.

Photoshop is a cruel mistress.

Ref'd from here.

charisma, take one

*punt*
not my colours on that. stolen directly from photo.

Eyeball

I did this on my shiny new tablet while trying to get a feel for it. It is referenced from this photo.
