oddworld goes speedpaint

[scrabface]

hi guys

i was thinking of starting a speedpaint thread. all medias are allowed, only rules: oddworld as the main topic and it should be your own work! it is also allowed to create and design own ideas, but it should fit into oddworld.

so what do you think? are you all set? or some?

[scrabface]

okay, so i start with a simple sketch. i am very sad, that they canceled the project Sligstorm, which seemed to be very auspicious to me.

Could you explain what a Speedpaint is? I'm going to guess it involves painting speedily.

[scipionyx]

does this one count as a speedpainting? though it's not verry beatiful but I tried to make it nice... just with the mouse normaly I draw a sketch with a pencil first and then make a photo of it to colour it with photoshop, I still can't draw with a mouse xD


I like your picture btw , I am also sad that they cancled Sligstorm...

That Slig is cute! And I really like your picture, scipionix.

I'll do something later when I have time.

[scrabface]

very nice scipionyx. you're right, it is hard to draw with an optical mouse.

well what is a speedpaint. good question^^. sorry about the absence of definition. here it is:

an image, done in max 1 or 2 hours has the honour to name itself 'speedpaint', its a bit more than a sketch and less than a final painting. it is important to catch the essence of what you want to show in your image.
thats what i would call a speedpaint...
But this shouldn't kill all joy. so forget the definition^^. just draw and spill yourself with paint. wallow in creativity. oddworld donates much inspiration. the more people join the merrier it will be.

and thanks for the nice comments about my albino slig. i feel a huge sympathy about this guy. i wonder what his name could be. any ideas? should open a new thread for the suggestions...

[scipionyx]

thanx scrabface, if I have the time and an idea I'll post maybe another pictue
and for the name... right now the only thing I can think of is Alby O_O but hehe what ever I'm not good at inventing names


Edit: forget this I'm horrible at inveting names

[Oddey]

I say his name is either Garfeild, Gargle, Slig #4869348650, or Jeff.

... I'm not much of an artist and for those of you who are nice can you post a video of you drawing it?
