I can see some illustrative qualities in this painting, there seems to be an emphasis on brilliance of color, which a certainly a hallmark of Rockwell's style. Coloring black and white photos is a fun process, I particularly enjoy it myself. Rockwell painted from b/w photos through a good portion of his career, ones that he painstakingly composed himself using neighbors and friends as subjects. The composition in this painting certainly works and fits the subject matter, this was a good photo to paint. The two figures are looking in nearly opposite directions which really opens up the painting. Good work and thanks again for entering.

Very nice drawing QT it must 've been a true challenge turning a b/w photo into a color painting. I think it is a big pity we were the only two who tried our hand at this contest.

Some parts I'm very happy with the outcome, other parts I want to erase and never do again.
Not sure if it is Rockwelly enough, probably not, but at the beginning I thought the facial expression was fitting.

Very nice job, great shading. Everything seems to 'pop'

Kloxboy (Dec 11, 2008)

A very cute child indeed. The bold, blue eyes are what drew me in first, they're really district against the slightly warm-toned, white skin. This piece seems to catch that randomness of life and facial expression, she looks like she's in mid-thought, as if something just occurred to her. The painting style is rather bold, I can certainly see some of Norman's influence in that respect. Well done Joyce, thanks again for entering.

I agree with you enjoy. I am very disapointed. Wish more people would participate. But.....it is not a very good season as everyone is probabally terriblly busy. Beuatiful entry by the way....is this you? (I assume it is)

Gigandas' Animatic

Gigandas (Dec 12, 2008)

Eh, might as well. To be honest, I'm quite proud of my results thus far. In my animation class, we're all putting together a minute and a half student film and this first semester was all concept work. So this animatic is the compilation of all the pre-production work I've invested into this project, getting ready for next semester. Hope you enjoy and be sure to choose the high quality option when viewing.

Wow, that's neat. Beautiful torso, those hips are especially awesome.

Noremac: HA!

Mocha_Bean (Dec 12, 2008)

Thanks you guys! =D
Klox: I've had a "sudden" obsession with hips. They're my favorite parts to draw other than boobs. More hips.. >_>

GrooveZombie (edited Dec 12, 2008)

I dig the graphic quality to this. The scrambled parts on the figure are interesting, it ties into the background well. Also, hips are grand, both in this piece and in the general sense.

Mocha_Bean (Dec 12, 2008)

Thanks Zombie! =D

Contest Week 89: The Rockwell Children

Kloxboy (edited Dec 11, 2008)

Contest Week 89: The Rockwell Children Draw yourself when you were a child (anytime before you were 13 years old), in Norman Rockwell's painting style. You do not have to post a photo reference but I highly suggest you use one. This is not a realism contest, the goal is to make your piece resemble Rockwell's painting style. Do not copy a Rockwell painting and add your face to it, that's not painting in Rockwell's style, that's just copying. Who was Norman Rockwell? Here's a little ...

Ive not got a clue who he is, but i just googled him and if i did know who he was... i would of known from this it was him.Ive just read a snippet of information about him and he seems like he's a real ass clown, as mad as a clowns cock aswell.

HiroDaZero (Dec 10, 2008)

is this him?

Axil62 (Dec 11, 2008)

HiroDaZero: Yep, thats Blagojevich.

Oh, and don't forget, Obama had no idea about any of this even though Axelrod had just stated that Obama had been talking to Blago about possible candidates for his senate seat. Just like he had no idea about his pastor's hate sermons ...or that his buddy was a terrorist bomber ..or...

TheCrimsonKing (Dec 11, 2008)

Imagine how many other politicians who do the same business as Blagojevich and haven't been caught, and probably won't.
