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

Here's some real hipster bullshit I got commissioned to do. But on a serious note I love these guys music [IMG]http://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.com/tumblr_llubs7hmnE1qfvi16o1_1280.png?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJ6IHWSU3BX3X7X3Q&Expires=1306616370&Signature=nYyqukq8N1jeSc4bivf8o6pdN5s%3D[/IMG]

I gave up. [IMG]http://imageflock.com/img/1306530297.png[/IMG]

Looks like you left it just right.

[QUOTE=Toastador;30085567]I gave up.[/QUOTE] No! It's awesome!

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/4BOZ1.jpg[/IMG] I found a sketch of this on lined paper in my old art folder. I decided it was a little too good to just leave alone so I made a cleaner version. I'm gonna fix her boob and MAYBE I'll take the final battle to the acrylic canvas fields in a variety of neon colors. Sounds good?

Not the place for it.

[QUOTE=Ehanced_AI;30087699]Not the place for it.[/QUOTE] But it's creative work that doesn't deserve a thread.

Not the place for it. you want this place. [url]http://www.facepunch.com/forums/198-Screenshots-and-Movies[/url]

[QUOTE=CabooseRvB;30087708]But it's creative work that doesn't deserve a thread.[/QUOTE] You don't post your self made games here do you? You post them in Programming. Same goes for Garry's mod related shit. They have their own forum.

[QUOTE=CabooseRvB;30087828]Wait, so now these aren't deemed creative work? whut.[/QUOTE] Not the kind we're looking for here, but what I mean is that why would you post that here if it has it's own forum full of people that know how to critique this.

[QUOTE=CabooseRvB;30087828]Wait, so now these aren't deemed creative work? whut. [editline]27th May 2011[/editline] I never knew forums were so segregated.[/QUOTE] just sayin why post it here when theres a much more specific thread for gmod stuff?

You guys can't analyze political cartoons?

[QUOTE=CabooseRvB;30087893]I way trying to make a political cartoon with given sandbox models. You guys can't analyze political cartoons?[/QUOTE] Well, I don't know anything about American politcs so no I can't analyze that. I can tell you it's very, very poorly made.

[QUOTE=strider;30087910]Well, I don't know anything about American politcs so no I can't analyze that.

I already know I half-canned the signs and bubbles. And having it printed out on a poster paper, it'll probably just stamp out most of the crappy jpeg quality and minor gimp misses.

There's so much wrong with the posing and lighting and stuff that the people in Screenshots and Movies will be happy to tell you. On top of that the speech bubbles and the sign look like they were made in less than 20 seconds. Do not get this shit printed, it [i]sucks[/i].

Speech bubble in paint? And you're printing this? Why not throw a comic sans font in there now that you're already going to make a debut as impressively unprofessional 'cartoonist'? EDIT: Ooh.

And admitting to myself that I half-assed the bubbles and signs is a sign of a huge ego? [QUOTE=Kagrs;30088147]Speech bubble in paint? And you're printing this?

[QUOTE=CabooseRvB;30088159]Uh, just say it. What's wrong with it? And admitting to myself that I half-assed the bubbles and signs is a sign of a huge ego?[/QUOTE] No the fact that you like it so much that you want to get it printed. There's nothing worth printing. I'm telling you, go over to the Screenshots & Movies section and let those guys judge this thing. And if you want to get it printed, are you really too lazy to fix those speech bubbles? Maybe fix the lighting, maybe a good camera angle? This is just garbage, the fact that you want it printed makes me hate you.

I'm not posting vast quantities of this to distribute and act like a weirdo on the street corner giving these away to passers by. And where and how did I say that I loved my piece of work? Please stop placing words in states you did not make. [editline]27th May 2011[/editline] And having it printed. It must be an instant sign that I love my work. How is that conclusion drawn?

I never said you loved it. And even for a class project it's garbage. If you saw a poster anywhere on the street or even in your school with this kind of horrible editing wouldn't you want to throw up? I know I'd like to throw up on your poster. But obviously you're not backing down, do whatever you please.

All I see from you is greeting me with hostility and refusing to tell me what is wrong with this [quote]I've seen some people that were excessively and unjustly proud of their own work, but you take the cake.[/quote] I mean, I would have thought it's a good idea to ask a different crowd on what's wrong with these things.

[QUOTE=CabooseRvB;30088328]Hey! I'm just asking what the Hell is wrong with it.

I told you several times that the people there know a lot more about ragdoll posing than I, and most of the people in this forum, do. Because THIS IS NOT THE POSING FORUM.

I mean, I'm already asking myself this, are the DEA letters shopped in correctly to make it actually look like they're on a curved surface? Is the composition of subjects in the image correct or should it be more crowded and focused on the action on Keith?
