Yay yay yay!!! When I was little my mom was a cool hippie mom who played me all sorts of awesome albums. Mostly she played Alice Cooper but she also played me some beautiful Zeppelin. It reminds me of watching my dad build racecars in the garage listening to KQ (the local classic rock station), and now it makes me want to go play guitar. Since I started that whole thing they've been an absolute staple in my current line-up of listenables.

Yeah so I really like ur drawring it rocks. :B

would that include fields like typography too?

TaCO (Oct 24, 2005)

I meant drawing. Stop being stupid.

Gigandas (Oct 24, 2005)

I'm not trying to be 'stupid,' I'm just saying working with a mouse/tablet will only help you so much. To master everything, you'll need to try inking, airbrushing, painting, etc. etc.

TaCO (Oct 24, 2005)

I do.
I draw mostly with ink.
I also like using vine charcoal.

I draw with ink and pencil everyday. I draw on the computer everyday.
I started drawing everyday in febuary.
The only thing I haven't used is Airbrush, but I plan on getting one soon.

I didn't even know what shading was till I was 19.

I will get better and I will become a master artist.

YAY! I remembered my 2draw password!

Good practice. Keep it up. :)

devilgirl (Oct 22, 2005)

the_ingo (Oct 23, 2005)

I love the contrast, deep shadows like that add so much weight to an image.

TaCO (Oct 25, 2005)

I think the eye made the pic, even though It's a crapy eye.

I don't like winter, It's evil.

laurael (edited Oct 22, 2005)

I like winter.
Snowball fights, building forts and igloos and snowmen, sledding, icicles, snow falling on your upturned face, catching snowflakes on your tongue, white covering everything, sliding on the ice and falling on your butt...yeah.
Nice pic...great style.

Sweetbriar (Oct 23, 2005)

Great concept. It's very nice and smooth :)

Renuar (Oct 27, 2005)

i like the drawing style you used for this, good work.

Can you tell how many blocks there are? Are you sure?

kristine (Oct 23, 2005)

27 should be right, considering you cant see the back.

SneakyWalter (edited Oct 25, 2005)

I miscounted badly there...

But HideYourFace is right.

There could even be another row completely hidden by the back row.

TaCO (Oct 26, 2005)

Great Iso views.

And it could just be one solid object with lines cut into It.

SneakyWalter (Nov 6, 2005)

True. True.

Frantic firing erupts from the defenders as they make a last ditch effort to repulse the armored behemoth that relentlessly advances towards them. As ammunition begins to run dry, the hapless guardsmen fall into disarray. The bravest surge forward to engage in hand to hand, while the meek hesitate and prepare to take flight. They will not get far. The Sanctuary building they were ordered to defend will become their tomb.

Great draw.

DarkCloak (Oct 22, 2005)

Maybe someday I'll get off my butt and do a comic, but I need more practice. :P

cool... it looks so soft! i think it looks more like he's on champs or so. Or maybe that's just because he looks a bit like one? :)

TaCO (Oct 20, 2005)

champs???

Gigge (Oct 20, 2005)

Sebastian is drunk! I had my suspicions.

Great pose and facial expression. It certainly looks like he's about to kick some serious butt.

Practice with trouble areas

TaCO (Oct 16, 2005)

This was good practice, but I'm still having trouble with a few areas.
I been using a mouse for a year but I still draw much much better with Traditional media.
Mouse art is hard:(
