Those who are wondering "WTF" - a letter B?? Well, I'm killing 2 birds with one stone. Teaching my 5 year old the alphabet while getting her interested in computer graphics. She says this is ALOT more fun than flashcards!!

You done good, yep. I like these colors, and the half-tone effect.

:P Looking from our pov, the right side of the face has a good shape to it, but the left side, that thick gray line makes the face look far too rounded. And you look so proud...muah. Wtf are halftones >.<

The Man in the Dark Trench Coat

Gigandas (Feb 6, 2004)

It's pretty much done.I might fix his chin sometime since that kinda bugs me, but other than that I guess it's alright.Sorry about some of the sharpness in the shading.I didn't have control over that since it just happens when being submitted for some reason^^;.Well, here it is and hope you enjoy it...if you guys want the reference pic, I'll try to put a link to it.

Extreme Alphabet / letter "A"

foxman8245 (Feb 22, 2004)

Letter "A" of the exreme alphabet. 5 year old daughter helped pick the colors. We are doing the alphabet which gives her a fun way to learn her letters and introduce her to computer graphics :-)

are we in for a treat or what

foxman8245 (Feb 22, 2004)

Well, I wouldnt expect adults to get a big thrill out of letters, but for those who have little ones starting to learn the alphabet...... this works !!!!!

dixielandcutie (Feb 22, 2004)

hehe, sweet. awesome shading

lilypad (Feb 24, 2004)

i think that some of the kids on the blessed haven would like them, too. the adults should. i mean, the shadings nice, the colourings nice, the bg's nice. why do the adults hafta look at the subject? why not the things that make up the subject? it's not a regular 'A', it's a foxman-teaching-his-daughter-the-alphabet 'A', or as foxman likes to call it, an extreme 'A'.so, Icats, if ur not going to appreciate it and get foxman's hopes done or anything like that(such as hate the fact that foxman's getting his 5 YEAR OLD daughter into computers and teaching her the alphabet, just f*** off, okay? we don't need you.

well that was fun. i just realized i have no good ideas for a background.

davincipoppalag (Feb 22, 2004)

Well I like what you put there.. it gives it a sort of samoan feel... the BG looks like the kind of patterns they have in the south Pacific islands on tapa cloth etc.. I think it worked nicely

foxman8245 (Feb 28, 2004)

hey.. like the bg here!!!

fleeting_memory (Mar 2, 2004)

Very realistic but somehow kinda freaky-cause its like a wild boar and its on my screen *runs AHHHHHHHHHHH!*

If this doesn't kill the theme board, nothing will. I have this pic scanned to my files, but don't know how to make a link to here... There is a black and white version of this picture @ www.dba.schauk.com . Have to scroll through the first two pics- it's the third.

Oh...don't say that! For an attempt at portraitry...(especially if you're not used to such work) this is really good! You got the proportions of your face down right, it just looks so soft and pastel like. I like it DBA and with a little more practice (that is if you're up to it) You can get really good at faces! Greak job!!! XD

sal (Feb 27, 2004)

wired lookin scenery on those other pics.... is that deer thing dead?

Cobra (Feb 27, 2004)

Wow! DBA what a beautifully talented artist you are, your work is always a joy

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Feb 28, 2004)

No, sal, I asked the deer really nicely to lie down and be still for the picture. Yeah, they usually get dead when I put an arrow through their heart. Thanks for the nice comments, ya'll.

to moderator-- can i finish this?

Zinc (edited Feb 24, 2004)

Just so you know, if you run out of room (again), you should memo a moderator next time with a link to the picture. Things will be a lot more convenient and a lot less troublesome.

And you may continue now, btw.

I'm not sure, but I think he probably did less detail on the body because the focus should be on the face, hand, and butterfly. I like it this way. It brings your attention directly to the point of focus.

marcello (Feb 20, 2004)

I didn't say there was anytihng wrong with less detail/focus on the body, I'm just saying it doesn't have the same feeling as the head and hands. you can still keep something out of focus while fitting with the style/level of finish of the rest of the piece. Take his left arm for example.

Pantera (Mar 25, 2004)

wooooohooooooo, love it the detail averything about it, you know what I would like to see you do??? a black Pantera, their are my favorite wild cat :)
