For lack of a better title. ^^ This picture actually has quite a long story behind it. It was originally going to be one of my characters, Suki. But then I made her hair too curly so I turned it into Frodo. So my sister walks into the room and we spend about twenty minutes trying to color it. We got neon pants. Buuuut I like 'em. And the sky is just weird. But I like that too. Thanks to my sister for instructing me on the coloring of Frodo. ^__^

how did you do the coloring on his shirt? it's very neat, but the only way i can imagine doing it would take hours... it's a wonderful picture, and i love your style. you should really draw more often if you can find the time... you add a lot of variety in the boards.

Memory Machine

Song Lyrics make for good pics....
Someday, I?m telling you
They?ll make a memory machine
To wax our hearts to a blinding sheen
To wash away the grief
it?ll be a relief
If they can make machines to save us labor
Someday they?ll do our hearts the very same favor
The wails of ruined lives brought to a halt
By the serene hum of computers in air-conditioned vaults

zappo is my favorite criminally insane person :)

Marienkind (edited Aug 6, 2003)

well, at least he's putting his criminally insane mind in pretty digital canvases rather than on people's bodies. :D

Zappo (edited Aug 6, 2003)

What...oh yes....just on digital canvas.......muhahahahaha!

I like the markings around her eyes, for some reason. *shrug* And now, I'm off to eat pizza and watch Buffy reruns, which has proved to be a cure-all in the past. Hope it still works. *shuffles off*

Oooh, I agree with you on the eye markings (and shoulder marking), Becca. Have fun with Puffy! Ya know... Pizza and Buffy. Puff...yeah, you get it. Anyway, great job!

OH, this is really cool! I don't know why but I've always been particular to black and white paintings/pictures. great expression and shading.

it kind of looks like he's falling down a circular chimney, because some guy was upset about how his seafood tasted and decided to throw it all the way down the chimney just to spite the chef. it looks like you used the smudge tool, yes?

Aunvi (edited Aug 6, 2003)

looks like someone decided to throw him down a well to me. Or he's traveling through some kind of interdementional gate. But it looks more like the first thing I said...hmm

Aunvi (Aug 2, 2003)

ok I fixed it. uh.....wel.......this is my first attempt to try and draw something that looked a little realistic.

nevermind about the realistic thing

This isn't realistic, it's more of a 'high color' anime. that is, putting more color into something that still looks like a cartoon. It's still far from realism simply because people's facial features don't look like that. noses aren't that tiny, eyes aren't the big, or that blue, nor are those human proportions. So um..ya try drawing from a photo, or mirror. the differences will become more clear.

Aunvi (edited Aug 4, 2003)

ok. I'll try it later.

edit> yep I see the difference. There's a big difference.

Knockoff (edited Aug 6, 2003)

Hmmm I think its reaslly good.! Very smooth.!
