Creative Work That Doesn't Deserve A Thread - Detlef's Detlef edition - General

[QUOTE=QuickSnapz;30009924]Well it's based off the one in the intro[/QUOTE] so it's equally unoriginal?

Yeah [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] It's the first sort of pixel art thing I've done and I can't make anything up to draw.

some practice [IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/ZcuFi2.png[/IMG] Not particularly satisfied with it, especially the middle one. I am slowly getting the hang of Photoshop. edit: with the middle one (which I drew first) what I've basically cocked up is that the circle frame from the beginning is occupying her hair, her eyes start near the bottom of it

3v3ryb0dy's back! :dance:

ugh haven't been using my tablet much lately. I have so much school work that during any down time I get I don't feel like doing anything art related because then it feels like work. [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] anyone wanna see some graffiti I did today? [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] okay here [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17721670/IMAG0040.jpg[/img] me and a friend did the green splurge and the "clone" dub [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] also note the small blue penis on the column to your right courtesy of yours truly :v:

I need help with this. I'd like to make it at least somewhat decent before I give up on it, but I don't know what to do or how to fix it. [IMG]http://www.imageflock.com/img/1306180256.png[/IMG]

I really think you should have made the values of the monster thing more dark. unless it's actually supposed to be white [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] but nice composition and depht btw

spend more time doing photostudies and studying anatomy. Can't draw from head if you have nothing stored in there.

I would imagine so, because I agree.

[QUOTE=kevlar jens;30011227]you are scum[/QUOTE] why am i scum?

[QUOTE=JoeyZ;30010360]3v3ryb0dy's back! :dance:[/QUOTE] makin an art dump that has that syrrealist shit you like once i finish a portrait im working on [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=MovingSalad;30012023]Are you talking to me?[/QUOTE] No, there's just butter on my face.

[QUOTE=Barnhouse;30012067]why am i scum?[/QUOTE] Because you have the audacity to paint on walls which causes AIDS in babies in africa

just to be frank no one givesa fuck about afrika

[QUOTE=Barnhouse;30012067]why am i scum?[/QUOTE] because you're tagging dongs on state property

yeh doing graffity is fine but people who spray dongs all over place should be lined up infront of a wall

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/KT9mk.png[/IMG] I finished it, or at least the guy wanting it as a tattoo is satisfied enough and I can't be bothered anymore.

I need some inspiration for my final art project, which I've decided will "document the unconscious mind" [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] relative to the conscious mind

on the subject of my graffiti, it was at the Southbank in london which is a legal graffiti spot :smile: I'm a respectful member of society. I dont even like doing graff on non legal spots because you have to rush like fuck and it looks shit and isnt fun.

[QUOTE=Autumn;30007455]any ideas of what i can do with this? to develop into a bit more of a project rather than just an alphabet? [img]http://i55.tinypic.com/rasw40.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] My take on this; it's cute and all, but the cutting around the edges is a little sharp and gets pretty bad on the smaller ones. I don't know what program you're using, but if it's photoshop and you used a lasso or marquee tool, go into refine selection or what have you, and turn a little smoothing on to make sure the edges are just a little bit softer. You can try and balance between the rough/imperfect form of the pieces without the hard edges. Also, if I were you I'd try and thicken the cereal pieces and leave less space in the middle, wewt! is right that at first glance it's hard to read, there's a lot of white space and it breaks up the look of the letters.

[QUOTE=MovingSalad;30012255]I need some inspiration for my final art project, which I've decided will "document the unconscious mind" [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] relative to the conscious mind[/QUOTE] Why not include some studies on normal vs. distorted images? Can always be done with mirrors, glass, etc.

well i can't really thicken them since... that's how thick they were to begin with. but yeah they do look a bit hard around the edges. i don't know if it was the resizing or whatever, because i think they still look fine big. guess i'll have to find a happy medium.

[QUOTE=MovingSalad;30012255]I need some inspiration for my final art project, which I've decided will "document the unconscious mind" [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] relative to the conscious mind[/QUOTE] visit art galleries. Listen to syrrealistic music, eg. mars volta. Read their deloused in the comatorium

[QUOTE=3v3ryb0dy;30012199]yeh doing graffity is fine but people who spray dongs all over place should be lined up infront of a wall[/QUOTE] Any graffiti makes the place look more rough and more shit, even if it's well done. At my local skate park they made it legal to do graffiti on this big wall, and there are other legal places around the country. Anywhere other than that though and I really don't like it. It's not their property to paint. If they want to do it then they should be prepared to do it on a wall in their back garden or something, if they don't have one then tough shit. I mean, you could say "oh you can't stop them from doing their art" but that's bullshit. It's not fair to paint property which doesn't belong to them. That said I'm perfectly ok with people doing it in those legal places.

hey hey hey it was a single innocent dong anything you spray there will get covered over in a few days anyway [editline]23rd May 2011[/editline] and er i was... testing the paint :ninja:
