What the fuck.. [img]http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs30/f/2008/182/5/5/555a0aee43a1b098c065c472aea8c3e4.jpg[/img]
So I recently got into cooking from scratch. and according to all the people that I've cooked for, i'm a great cook! :DDDDDDDD So with my newly found power of gourmet meals I seek to prove you all wrong with your real food not looking good in pictures nonsense . Also I'm a firm believer that true men should know how to handle themselves in a Kitchen. After all what is cooking even if it's just a glorified way of us sitting around a fire roasting fresh game.
Sometimes I dream about cheese, so I doodle them on my table.
i make a delicious poptart
I'm so frustrated because I know the techniques on how to draw in Photoshop, but I can't even draw the simplest thing traditionally yet.
Just heared the intake for the school I want to go to will be on 5/6/7 april. Have to get my portfolio ready before that.

Aww daijitsu does the same thing. My heart feels so warm right now :unsmith:
CHEESE WHEELs
[QUOTE=eXiv2;26851411]I'm so frustrated because I know the techniques on how to draw in Photoshop, but I can't even draw the simplest thing traditionally yet.[/QUOTE] well that's funny, i learned how to draw traditionally first and then just applied those skills to digital work and everything's hunky dory Traditionalists in the house.
I just had a dream a hawk came and took my cat :( Might draw it.
I just had a sick, disgusting dream. Not going to draw that.
Just found this thread. What a nice little place.
There's this kid that graduated from the same highschool I went to, he edits (filter rapes) pictures from his D3000 and titles the album 'lomography' I won't post it because I'd feel bad. He also has tons of 'renders' of his cellphone and generic sports cars, but it's all [i]drawn[/i] in Illustrator. He'll also constantly update his facebook with pictures of whatever pseudo-LSD-tripout (he's known for not doing any kind of drugs) marker drawing he's working on. What inspired me to write this post is that he recently uploaded a picture he 'tiltshifted', in the caption it says it's a stock photo he found on google - he didn't even bother to take the shot. Needless to say, he gets all the attention in the world from friends and family commenting about how artistic it all is. He's one of those folks who likes the idea of being an artist more than the art itself. If he posted anything here he'd be ripped to shreds. I hate bad mouthing people and usually regret posting mean-spirited stuff like this, but it really gets me worked up to see someone posing (hate that word). He doesn't have a real interest in what he's doing, he wants other people to be interested in him. It's not that his work is bad (which it is) it's that he wants other people to think he's great. [I've never seen an entire album dedicated to the unboxing of an entry level DSLR until now.]
Why does people always assume that working with pixel art = things that's really easily done etc etc and doesn't even need the most basic of information on what they want and how big it should be? I'm thinking about the two threads below ; [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1040498-Looking-for-a-pixel-artist-for-my-game-(HLnano[/url]) [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1041002-Looking-for-a-good-background-artist[/url] I would lie if I didn't say I'm interested in doing some of that work but good god, I've already had one bad experience where I had to draw sprites for a bullet hell game ( [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1026900-Bullet-Hell-Aka.-Shoot-em-up-Touhou-Sprites[/url] is the thread in case you want to check it out) and I don't want to spend a lot of hours (I think I spent 50-60 hours on the bullet hell sprites, but it was really hard working with the guy so I quit) on something where the one asking for the art is hard to work with. The OPs in both those threads give me bad vibes already due to the lack of any real information, it's as if people expect pixel artists to work for nothing (because lol it can be drawn in MS Paint :downs:) and think we have some magical ability to work with no information and do exactly what they want.

The majority of these kids WANT to be artistic, do something basic, and parents/friends who don't know any better will 90% of the time coddle it in an attempt to make them feel better because they were probably being mopey about not being artistic in the process of asking them about how they felt about the art. I just don't have the heart to tell them they need to work a LOT before they really get anywhere, because they're being so god damned mopey about it. [quote][I've never seen an entire album dedicated to the unboxing of an entry level DSLR until now.][/QUOTE] Go to youtube, search 'unboxing [subject]', for whatever subject you want. Guaranteed you'll find a minimum five minute long video of some 15 year old trying to be dramatic and slow whilst fumbling with a cell phone camera in one hand and the object's box in another, possibly making "whoooaaaa" comments as he pulls out a video cable that no one ever uses.

You can just lurk around keeping your shit to yourself and flip him off at every instant knowing you're so much better than him. [editline]24th December 2010[/editline] Also whatup bitches?
3v3, welcome back. Lurking or just too busy?
sup broseph
Just passin through, I'll doubt I'll do anything useful here until I start drawing again.
God damn it. Every time I space out and think about something, I automatically browse to creationism corner and start scrolling through the general artwork thread, absolutely automatically.
Same. I'll get to a suitable stopping point in something (when I say "suitable" I mean every time I finish a sentence or a line) and be like "yeah definitely time to check FB and FP". I am a terrible worker.

Yah, I do some portion, initiate a conversation with someone over msn/steam, lose intrest in it, go to fp, /k/, /ic/, DA, Gmail stimulanously and change music and do another portion.
I usually go to FP, browse all the threads that interest me. Look for new posts on the Neverwinter Nights megathread. Close my browser. Stare at my desktop for a couple of seconds, and do everything again.
As I haven't made a big drawing in maybe two or three months I never really get to a "stopping point". I just draw singular characters, objects, small vehicles and cartoons while watchingh TV. The only time I do anything different is when I'm in art-class and my teacher moans becuase I've just drawn generic robot #100. So the other day I did a sculpture and she seemed happy. Will post a pic of it next time I have an art-class.
You guys art classes all sound like fun. Mine isn't at all.
How old are you? I've found that art class is fun when you are young, then as you hit early teens and high-school it gets shit and then it gets better just as you leave high school. After that it steadily improves if you choose to go to art college or something of the sort.
I'm 16. So yes, It's quite shit for me at the moment. But soon I'll go to a class that is dedicated to designing and creating games.
I wish I had ever done an art class... :smith:
