Mirabella asked me to post my portfolio in a thread, before I scanned the pictures I took a look through my old boxes that had scrap sketches I did for people on the internet (like the safer and eudon pictures). I've been drawing ever since I can remember. In school people would pack me with requests, after high school and I got in a league of far better artists I got pressure off my shoulders and didn't have to draw for anyone. Although being like one of the best artists in high school had some pretty nice perks with girls gathering around me each time I had a pencil and paper out minding my own business (got groped, asked to do nudes, and everything because of this lol). It was just stressful for me to do these requests everyday and take care of my studying and HW. Then came the internet, and a whole sea of people that like to be drawn.
Enter my internet "Ploid Sketch me" thread pictures I just found. All of them have a story behind them based on the Gaming-age forum threads. Just like amy being a female character and having a girly sig, and Aemora being weird with his teddy bears. Love dat taru. Most of these pictures are before the stinkin anal art class I enrolled in. I think that stuff knocked the taste of being crazy and creative out of my mouth. But I can do better stuff it's just that I won't allow myself to do fun stuff it seem, and I hate on my own work thinking every line sux. I think I was better then with fun drawing, than now with boring yet more calculated stuff.
Alpha (
) is a geek that got into the gaming press scene at the age of 17. Mina(girl) is a girl that has a huge closet of costumes, and suspiciously provocative clothes. But she's sick, and house ridden for some reason (not anything deadly). She's also a artist, and owns with photoshop, and illustrator skills. And yea, I still have those pictures, she was quite the exhibitionist. I'll post examples right around <
> here when I get back.
This is me being lazy and getting a group of people in one picture again. I'm in it two times heh. On Those forums I'm Ploid 3.0(now). Everytime the forums change to another website like old eden vs new eden I would ad a 1.0 to the end of my name. Had problems activating my name here and everything was carried over so I didn't do it. The ploid behind the evil dude (don't remember these people) is a robot, the original ploid is climbing to take these people out like a game or some crap.
Some art contest on the forums (lot of artists there, fun enviroment). I had this one colored in paintshop (learned how to use photoshop mainly off the internet and GAF forum members). I won! Prize? nothing lol. First contest I entered and won though. It was painted nicely and had Tara banks in the background near a bed in underwear yet I choose PS2.
Second art contest. This person (forgot name) got a gig to run around in nintendo clothes and demo GBA's which were strapped to her waist. I lost the contest, and convinced the subject to want muscles. I really wish I had all the painted versions. I can only find incomplete painted ones due to them still being on a old cd.
This was from a poll thread that dealt with two members (current forum event). So I used that for those two. One was a respectful cliche' political person (kissing babies), and the other was a pimp, that killed kittens and force the mother cat to watch.
No idea what this guys name is again. Sure like to take pictures though.
Normal dude like.. ok weird, can't think of one normal personality in Eden. In the graphics I had some stuff around it making it look like a date ad on a website. Call me. (555) 555-2529 with a lot of pink and red stuff, a university in the background, and well he's touching his nipple.
Dude won the chess tournament. He beat me so I made him look gay.
A sketch
This is going to take me a while to scan and find webspace. Click small images to view the big picture.
Dude's name was gumby, and he wanted me to draw his baby picture, he also was obsessed with Britney spears and American Idol...
My photoshop master friend was a saturn fan and had a saturnman character he drew quite a lot. Thought I'd make a rival since I liked playstation.
These were after I started that a art class.
Don't forget to draw stuff yourself. Children are the best artists. They freely draw, and most artists envy their freedom. They aren't limited by their imagination, and their technique don't prevent them from being satisfied.
