Awesome coloring. I see faces too. :eek:

Creepy Doc 08-15-2007 03:28 PM

Nicely done. Awesome!

ziggy 08-24-2007 04:09 AM

Thankyou.

happy robot Woot!

-Oh and I was wondering (this is a question to other artists here) do any of you know how to promote your art? I want to but not sure how I should begin.

dripik 09-21-2007 11:07 AM

I've been neglecting this thread lately. I posted most of my stuff at deviantArt in the last month. Thought I should share some of them with you here.

A colored version of the 'war sceene' picture, an illustration of school starting, the comic Power Of the Tiger Tank, and a self-portrait, in that order.

ziggy 10-31-2010 11:11 PM

Ok I can't sleep right now, so I'll post revive my ancient thread yet again with some newer stuff.

Something that happened in the Sentence Game, which you probably have seen before when I was being annoying.

is nude art allowed?

ziggy 11-03-2010 07:51 PM

Yes thankyou! Finally somebody fucking contributed. I like the giraffes, ya draw vaginas or dicks that's fine. I'm no Puritan german Christian freak.

Was that a joke? I tried to make the skull drawing smaller on photobucket but it still shows up friggin huge on the post from my computer.

scrabface 11-03-2010 07:58 PM

eh no I meant it serious this is how I see it:

Stand back while I quote FC rules at you.

:

2. Do not post pornographic material
Pornography is stuff made specifically for sexual reasons. There is such a thing as tasteful nudity (see the art of Vanilla Killah for example) which is acceptable, and sometimes nudity happens in stories, but don’t take this as an excuse to post just anything. Please be sensible in what you post.

So yes, since what you posted falls fairly safely under the category of 'artistic nudity' it was perfectly fine. ;) If you have any further quandaries, that is the thread to visit.

yeah, these are great!

STM 11-04-2010 09:06 AM

Hmm, I'll have to post @ some point! This art shies mine away though.

ziggy 11-04-2010 10:02 AM

@scrabface: I used mainly charcoal for the goat skull and oil pastels for the other one. I've been dabbling with oil paint since I just got them, and realize they're infinitely better than acrylics. But paintings definitely take much more patience.

I'm sorry Splat but it seems you enforce the rules too strictly here. Modern Art now is pretty much supposed to have no limits, and there is a fine/subjective line between tasteful nudity and pornographic art. I've seen stuff displayed that's way more obscene than the things you delete in the fan corner here. But that's just my opinion, you can just brush it off if you wish.

Oh and scrabface, do you use Adobe illustrator, Corel paint or some other program to make those last couple drawings? I've tried with digital art, but I'm not that great. Here's something I randomly assembled one day on my computer

Oddey 11-04-2010 11:51 AM

This thread inspires me to try my hand at with drawn art again, but for now I will simply say well done. To everyone who posts and posted here.

mostly I use Photoshop, but Illustrator and Corel Paint too. You got a graphic tablet? it's really worth biting you through. The first couple of months were mostly disappointing because I didn't know the interface and so on. but after 3 years now it became a third hand. but I am aware that digital art never will be able to top simple analog art.

ziggy 11-05-2010 01:40 PM

I have the Abode Master Suite, with all the programs. I suck at photoshop, though, and I hate it. I made that abstract thing with Illustrator. I just draw with a regular mouse and no tablet so it's pretty hard/awkward. I've been trying with flash animation, but it's really hard to get the hang of. You've ever been interested in that? If so we should make a cartoon together! That would be really fun. I love voice acting and making characters but the whole animation part is hard, mainly because I suck at programming and I don't have enough time to practice it. I really think that Weebl and Bob guy is a flash master with those loops he makes, since he makes the voices and music himself too. A true internet artist.

scrabface 11-07-2010 03:34 PM

a graphical tablet is really a fine thing but I don't think one need much technical stuff to do interesting art.

for example this is from a french artist and he only used windows paint for this one (so pro...)

oh yeah I was always into animation but it's nearly impossible to become an animator in Austria because Austria never cared about animation...
I tried some flash animation but yeah it really needs some practice and know how about animating. but one day you'll see I'll be an animator.

here's my first try with TVPaint lol



you have some animation to share? would love to see more of your stuff

Dipstikk 11-12-2010 07:48 AM


oh mai.

scrabface 11-12-2010 04:45 PM

I'm working on this short flash animation, it's about this hunter

http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4QZjCi448Q...00/maddog1.jpg

who got maniac and hunted down every single species that ever existed, but there is one more to complete his collection. after some research I decided to use the design you can see above, but I am afraid his head is reminiscent of the head Elmer Fudd has got.

scrabface 11-12-2010 04:51 PM

sorry for the double post but I couldn't upload this second image

this is an older version of the hunter

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4QZjCi448Q...00/maddog2.jpg

ziggy 11-23-2010 11:23 AM

That's cool, it looks kind of Bob Clampett style cartooning. I would like to see an animation if you if/when you finish it showing that story. You should definitely give him a name, not just the Hunter. I don't know how to post embed flash files here. Can someone explain, cause photobucket won't allow me to do it unless I have a pro account. There must be some way? I made a short flash animation of a cat, but it wasn't very good...I tried to put it on Newgrounds but it didn't make it due to poor ratings, so I'd have to really learn how to use that program.

Here is a painting I'm going to show and sell at a local framing store.

How very colonial. Well done!

MeechMunchie 11-24-2010 07:43 AM

Has he got a Mudokon paw on his face?

ziggy 11-24-2010 11:59 AM

hehe nein nein. This is non-oddworld art & literature. I was trying to make it look atmospheric, and I didn't really define the face much, to try to make this ghostly appearance. That was what I was going for.

Wait, scrabtrapman, I appreciate the well done, but what do you mean when you say colonial?

maybe he means the colonial hunter.

thank you; I couldn't come up with a fitting name yet, maybe you got some ideas?
your painting is very atmospheric indeed and dark too.
maybe you could make a gif, or better upload it at youtube. that would be nice. what's your newgrounds acc name?

Given that most attempts at creating female class variants for the characters in TF2 are just gender-bent versions of the male characters (or if they aren't, there's absolutely no creativity put into their designs beyond turning them into eyecandy), I'm going to give it a shot myself and see what I get.

Already designed the Sniper and the Engie, and the Heavy as you can see. My Spy design is terrible, so I'm still working on that. I'll try to do one for every class.

Oh, and I think I'm in love with Scrabface's drawing style.

scrabface 11-29-2010 05:24 PM

Dipstikk that's sick and supercool at the same time. Wanna see more plz.

and thank you

aww Dipstikk lets turn that frown upside down.

scrabface 11-30-2010 07:46 PM

as I don't expect to win I think I can post it here; deviantart contest

the clouds are def not well balanced but I am to lazy to fix it.

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4QZjCi448Q.../artwater3.jpg

ziggy 12-01-2010 02:55 PM

That's pretty cool. It's a little hard to get the whole picture in, cause of the vast space of water, or it just looks big on my computer. What was the theme to it? Water stuff? I tried 2 deviantart contest before, but never one. I think it's kind of weird that you can see everyone elses submissions before the deadline. So posting it here wouldn't really make a difference.

...oh it was the water bottle art one. Got it.

I like this quite a bit. There's something charming about it. Was considering entering that contest too. I had some cool ideas, and entries were generally not very good.
But then I got busy with a load o f shit <.< ... do the winners ever get published? wanna know who won.

scrabface 12-03-2010 06:41 PM

thank you. may I have your DA nick? wanna check out your stuff

T-nex 12-10-2010 01:59 PM

Sure, it's 'pppeep'. I know, it's the lamest name ever. But be warned, there's nothing wortwhile uploaded there. I jut uploaded a bunch of random junk lol.

Lately, I've been spending my time trying to develop my skill, so nothing worthwhile has come out of that either, except sketches. But feel free to take a look.

scrabface 12-10-2010 04:50 PM

visited the KHM (kunsthistorisches museum) yesterday to draw some busts with a friend.
