Paj! Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 This is what my uncle did with an A1 sheet, a few black biros and about 500 hours. Sorry for the quality, but it was taken with a camera phone. Won't be to everyones taste as they're a bit weird, but the level of detail is pretty impressive. You probably can't make it out, but he's done all the grain on the wood and made everything look like it's got texture I always mean to do stuff in Biros, they're very satisfying (and multi-functional). That's really cool.
Letty Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 An A1 charcoal drawing I did; And an A1 painting based on it; I enjoyed it.
Wesley Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 Those are really good! I especially like the sky in the first one. Also, are the paint drips on purpose on the second one. Even if they're not say they are because it looks awesome. And the biro one is amazing! Try to get a better quality scan or something because you can see there's a lot of detail the camera phone isn't quite picking up.
Letty Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Yeah intentional, I think I should have made it MOAR drippy! I'll do that today.
Dante Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 The charcoal one scares me a bit!!! It looks like naked woman with giant head looking at her tit with a fly on it.
Wesley Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 It looks like naked woman with giant head looking at her tit with a fly on it. ...erm... I think you go see someone...
Kirkatronics Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 It looks like naked woman with giant head looking at her tit with a fly on it. Go see a shrink.
Wesley Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 I've made the appointment for you Dante, for Monday at 9 if that's alright. It'll be fine, they don't do shock treatment until the second session. Bring a nappy for that one.
MoogleViper Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 I can see the tit with a fly on it but where's the old woman looking at it?
Ganepark32 Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 ^ isn't that stuff more commonly know as Mod-roc? Sure looks like it to me. 'Tis what I used to make a mask in one of my exams. Great stuff to mess around with.

Great stuff to mess around with. No. lol. Mod-Roc is on the outside. The face imprint is made using alginate. Which is (in some form) what dentists use to make casts of teeth and such. It's more effective than purely using plaster/mod-roc. And easier/safer. The mod-roc is used to build up an outer layer so that I can get it off with ripping the soft alginate.
Goafer Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Fannying around with actions on Photoshop for the first time. Managed to make this from scratch. I'm quite proud!

dan-likes-trees Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Few sketchbook bits and bobs for y'all Raarr
Paj! Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 My sketchbooks are utter shite. I'm really disorganised as a person, so doing books well is an art I haven't mastered. I'm also lazy, so until ALL I'm doing, this won't improve. Desperately trying to make mine worthy of an A for tomorrow, after my exam is over. Won't happen. OHNOES.

Haha, sounds alot like me.. most my other pages are rather poor. My deadline was yesterday... I spent from about 9 on wednesday night until literally half 5 yesterday morning, before having two hours sleep, and then waking up half 7 and spending a further 4 hours on it. And then I had a 2 hour art exam and had to hand everything. So now im suitably knackered. Hope I've done enough for a B or maybe even an A... :S
Goafer Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 They're all very good, but these 3 are awesome! The bottom right cell in the third one reminds me of Metal Gear Solid. Although a lot of things are at the minute, I might be obsessed...

Although a lot of things are at the minute, I might be obsessed... Ha! I thought the ones you left out were far superior to the ones you picked. [/Fight over Dan's art!]
Goafer Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 Them's fightin words! I think it depends how I look at the pictures. I think the ones I picked are what I personally like and would choose them if I were to decorate my own walls or something. I'm a big fan of blocks of solid colours. Plus I absolutely love the background to the blue girl angel thing. I like the others because they look (to me) like they were harder to do and took more talent. In terms of how interesting the pictures are, I actually prefer these. The ones I picked are just more visually appealing to me. Wow, I'm duscussing art. How aristicratic of me.
Paj! Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 I suppose. While technically speaking all of those are great sketchbook pages, as individual pieces of art, I don't find anime people/winged people/etc you find on the net all the time very appealing. These don't really fall into that, but compared to those hands and the masked man, they pale in comparison (for me anyway).
Ashley Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 I really like all the stuff posted on this page so far. The biro work is amazingly detailed Plus I really like your stuff dan, particularly the coloured stuff. Randomly in the mood to draw and here is the result: He's a bit fatter than I intended but it was nice just to do something random like that.
Goafer Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I'm jealous of all the drawing skills in here. This is a pathetically small collection of the goodish things I've drawn: Myself in anime (ish) form: Scanned, traced and coloured (The neck looks huge. Golly): A skull copied from a tattoo magazine:
