I think he looks like a happy fun guy that likes to eat some candy and skip rope.

...or offer candy to little girls who are skipping rope, more like. Where did this come from? It's wunnerful. So fluid.

quite possibley the most character i've ever seen in a dragon
terracotta (Jan 28, 2006)
Bennie? Not with those Hercule Poirot whiskers. Something very European. Maurice or Fabrizio or Gustave. Fernando, Emile, or Dieter. It's a lovely painting of a dragon--the expression, the bold colours/highlights, whimsical background--all works together wonderful well.
Luka (Jan 31, 2006)
Ty! I like Maurice or Emile, but I think I'm going to call him Victor (like my brother, because he has that smirk on his face sometimes ..hehehe:P).
terracotta (Jan 31, 2006)
O! Victor is perfect. Hhhhssssss.

That's cool, really nice plane
nobody (Jan 26, 2006)
nice work overall. something about the perspective though makes it seem like it's leaning too far to the paddle (whatever you callit?) on our right. also, you may wish to use less grey in your shadows, as grey is a neutral color and may flatten it. try deep blues for the water, especially.

Yea it sucks.. I got tired of working on it and posted it this way.

Started out rolling my own ...something that came in a blue can, even Bull Durham when I was broke. Then Camel straights, then Marlboros, then Winstons and Camel Filters and finally Export A's. The last time I took a break from smoking was five and half years ago. I'll never say I quit. I still consider buying a pack now and then. How can y'all afford it any more anyway? They're 8 bucks a pack here. I remember being pissed off when the price in machines went up to 50 cents. ha. If wages had kept pace with the cost of smoking, I'd be making $80 an hour now. I think it's cheaper to be a heroine addict, isn't it? (sorry. I know this is forum fodder. 'pologies, Sythe.)
SYTHE (Jan 28, 2006)
Hey T, that's one of the most interesting stories I've heard all day. I've rolled my own, smoked pipes and even used dip. Did you know that they even have Marlboro in Iraq? They taste like sawdust over there but hey, when you need a smoke you'll settle for anything. I've replaced my nicotine habit with caffeine, now I'm up to a pack of Cola a day (just kidding).
mikron (Jan 28, 2006)
WOW ! The dark side is magnificent ! (I wasn't referring to the pic.. I was referring to Star Wars ... (kidding acourse ;)).
SYTHE (Jan 28, 2006)
The Dark Side gets all the best powers, why would anyone want to be a Jedi anyway. Incidentally, I pronouce my username like Sith also. :)

"It's A Dream"

In the morning when I wake up and listen to the sound
Of the birds outside on the roof
I try to ignore what the paper says
And I try not to read all the news
And I'll hold you if you had a bad dream
And I hope it never comes true
'Cause you and I been through so many things together
And the sun starts climbing the roof

It's a dream
Only a dream
And it's fading now
Fading away
It's only a dream
Just a memory without anywhere to stay

The Red River stills flows through my home town
Rollin' and tumblin' on its way
Swirling around the old bridge pylons
Where a boy fishes the morning away
His bicycle leans on an oak tree
While the cars rumble over his head
An aeroplane leaves a trail in an empty blue sky
And the young birds call out to be fed

It's a dream
Only a dream
And it's fading now
Fading away
It's only a dream
Just a memory without anywhere to stay

An old man walks along on the sidewalk
Sunglasses and an old Stetson hat
The four winds blow the back of his overcoat away
As he stops with the policeman to chat
And a train rolls out of the station
That was really somethin' in its day
Picking up speed on the straight prairie rails
As it carries the passengers away

It's gone
Only a dream
And it's fading now
Fading away
Only a dream
Just a memory without anywhere to stay

It's a dream
Only a dream
And it's fading now
Fading away
It's only a dream
Just a memory without anywhere to stay

It's a dream
Only a dream
And it's fading now
Fading away

I hear chicken soup is good for the soul, so it must be true.
safescene (Jan 25, 2006)
These are too good. I want you to make more.

a cornucopia of colliding colors coinciding with a creative collection of emotion.

Theres something reeally weird about really bright beams of sunlight when the sun is setting. It's just really awkward to see something so bright when the sky is getting darker. This picture gives me a funny feeling. I like it.
Miss_DJ (Jan 27, 2006)
very nice, Cindy...great choice of colors!
darkshadow (Jan 31, 2006)
the windows did not give me the feeling they were wet just really old
glass from before the 1920's kinda settals and given time the top becomes thin and the bottom gets thicker
my Nana has a 250 year old house in up state New York and many of the windows look like this

I'm liking the skin colour with the shade of lipstick--dramatic. Liquids are hard. Could I suggest that you might find it helpful to just draw a single drop of water on skin or some surface so that you can study how the highlight, shadow and transparency work together to give the effect you're after? It's tough to work on a portrait as complex as this and figure out a technique like drawing liquid at the same time--recipe for frustration.

I like the painterly brushstrokes you get with your skin tones.

Wraith (edited Apr 19, 2007)

He got bad, and she got mad, he lowered one more time
And she got even
No one heard a single word and as the clock ticked from next door
I could hear her breathing

And I said good morning Mrs. Sumner I would like you to meet my friend Mr. Jones
He has a house made out of butterflies
I can't sleep sometimes but I've been told
It's a lonely condition called growing old
Let me stumble sometimes

I'm looking for a soul to cling to
Girl what you think about that

This time, well it all comes down
To loss and strain and butterflies
Then it comes right down to me

Hello have you been alright
Did you find a piece of something wrapped around the light side of your life
To make you feel better
Did you get out with your sanity
Did you save a little something for the people in need
And did you know with the rain in your pockets
You can change the weather

Is it just the total for the wages of our sins
And have you made yourself a victim
In a game that you can't win
And are we caving in
And does it all depend on loss and strain and butterflies
And does it come right down to me anymore
This time
Does it all come down
To loss and strain and butterflies

I always respect and consider Gigandas' opinion and criticism, (along with that of most others) because he knows what he's talking about. I didn't say I was going to ignore everyone's opinion, just yours. You are still stupid.
darkshadow (Jan 31, 2006)
