whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. whoawhoawhoa. impressive on two counts..one: its very 'painterly' yet nice and crisp, a style i admire. two: the small details are fabulous. using a photo ref the camera picks up so much more that we cant paint on canvas or it will look off. congrats on getting that perfect amount of contrast to insinuate all the details in the photo.

The tree line above his wings annoys me quite a lot. But for the rest I really like this. |

Happy Late Halloween,did not know,as usual,there was a contest; guess there is secret code club,that you have to belong to,to be notified?Which week is which?Gotta get complex calendar. Most inconspicuous contests I've ever seen.I guess you have to hang out here 24 hrs. a day,to keep track.Yes,Virginia,there is a female werewolf,and she prays on men at Halloween,at the full moon. Had to rush this next morn. after Halloween, as usual, late. I have to make a comment on this content; the point was to have a female werewolf trap a helpless male, but, she is obviously very female, in spite of being a ferocious killer. I did this on purpose. This is partly a statement of an obviously sexy,well endowed FEMale werewolf,who can corner and kill a human adult male,while she is flaunting her sexuality. Usually women who are nude, are seen as vulnerable and harmless. Also, women who are obviously sexy,and show it, are not seen as a threat in society. They are usually the VICTUMS. Besides scaring the viewer (and the guy about to be eaten) I wanted to show that the very sexy female CAN be a threatening being. You do not have to look like a man,or boy,or a lesbian in dockers, for a woman to be a ferocious killer,or a threat to men. Notice that many women who were devastating sexy movie stars, were also very intelligent,and clever. That whole myth about "women who are well endowed,or sexy,are not smart,or very good at careers,or business, is just that." MYTH. Also, I do notice the conjunction of "sex and death" is very well illustrated. We know that sexual urges are closely tied to violence,war,and fighting. There fore, it could be said that the very sexiest tableau would be a scene of blood, or murder, death, and very sexual figures at the same time. I do not think I am the first artist to use this theme. However, my intention was to really show a threatening, ferocious,murdering, blood thirsty female,(werewolf) who was not hiding behind clothes,or acting prim,or non-human, but was as fully sexual in appearance, as she was horrible and scary. I believe that it makes the female appear far more scary, to appear so wild and primitive, and hence unclothed. Primitive people who go to war, are often pictured as not wearing many clothes,and it does not make them appear any less formidable or dangerous. Actually, it's just the opposite. Interesting concept. Or,I may just be a pervert.

This image has an interesting light source...as if the fear is what is generating it. You need to meet one of my favourite Hindu gods...Kali, the Destroyer.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kali Not all cultures objectify females in order to render them powerless. Men wouldn't have to work so hard to keep women oppressed if they weren't scared shitless. I'm convinced that all the nastiness perpetrated by humans has its basis in some sort of fear or other.

was watching shameless when megavideo said I had already watched 72 minutes, so I drew this while I wait to watch the rest of the episode. bored of drawing him now, so it's done.

Frank gallagher my hero, whats with the new username?
davincipoppalag (Oct 23, 2010)
Nice work.. what was the OLD username
Teapot (Oct 23, 2010)
This is great. You got his pasty, bruised, alkie hung over skin so perfect! The eye in perpetual squint against the perpetual smoke from the perpetual fag. That show was wild...but I saw it about 5 or 6 years ago. First thing I ever saw Jame McAvoy and Anne-Marie Duff in. I think the woman who played Frank's girlfriend was the funniest but I don't remember her name.

Autumn brings joy with it's beauty and always sadness with the death of summer.Hello, judges. This is whatever the opposite of pandering is called.
Suntan (Oct 19, 2010)
Refusal? ...great repulsion in v2..might as well enjoy Autumn's greatness, like she is..and dread what's coming. Nicely done, Teapot! :)
Roytje (Oct 19, 2010)
This is wonderful.
Teapot (Oct 19, 2010)
Thanks all. I was thinking about your style of painting when I did this, Roytje, so I'm really pleased you like it. I so want to be able to draw more dynamic landscapes and I often look at yours for inspiration. |

Going back to Oekaki was quite an "experience". I decided to brave the advanced board and put some real effort into the piece.Then, when I was 3/4 done, some weird "shifting" thing happened that I couldn't undo. I ragequit, but then decided to go back and see if I could possibly fix it. The whole thing was at like 10% opacity and stuff was overlaid all over, but I got it looking reasonable. The original colour scheme was completely lost, though >.<
Suntan (Oct 19, 2010)
very nice work!
Teapot (Oct 19, 2010)
Sorry to hear the program was being bitchy. I'm glad you persevered. This is very beautiful. Wonderful modeling and shading of the facial features...really classic.
arisuki (edited Oct 19, 2010)
>>>what do you mean "shifting thing"I was trying to move the entire drawing up by about 30 px, but nothing happened. Tried selecting the entire image and moving it down, and after a long pause, the whole image was shifted - at an extremely low opacity. I ended up with "ghost" features all over the place; extra eyes, extra lips, extra nose, and I had to clone the layer and multiply it until you could actually SEE the drawing. This was the last progress save I did on the original: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/arisuki/sleepingbeauty2.png?t=1287520112
marcello (Oct 19, 2010)
the selection tools are affected by your brush settings, so if you have a low opacity, low flow, or antialiased brush, you will end up with a semi-transparent selection. Useful if you're trying to do that, not useful if you're not. :-) Your best bet is to use the move tool without selections. If that's not working, try hitting control D to force a deselect, and then try again. end result looks great though. |

Version 4 is my favorite one. :)
Teapot (Oct 18, 2010)
Wow, the tension showing in those little muscles in the chin is fantastic. It really conveys strong emotion to me. That, plus the expression in the eyes. Beautiful work and what fun to watch your progression.
Suntan (Oct 19, 2010)
amazing..i love your work.
Pantera (Oct 20, 2010)

This drawing is all about me feeling like crap and sharing it. I was feeling old, broken and decaying... I'm glad you like it though, maybe my morbid moods are not as awful looking as I thought.
