  1. Thanks!

    Oh and here is his take on Brahn Fuhrnos, my SS/Fire/Regen tank. He nailed the eyebrows lol.

    His customary "v" notch in his goatee will be added (subtracted?) if/when I color it. 07K1tHnz_o.png

    One more to go and it will be a relatively new

    hero I have never commissioned or received fan art of.

  2. Thanks DD!

     

    Some more stuff from my Live thread, this

    is a pencil drawing I did for Kai of her eponymous hero.

    It was originally going to be an ink drawing for a commission but

    I was never happy with how my first attempt turned out so I gave it a 2nd try.

    And since she had been so patient I went ahead

    and put some simple quick colors down on it too. Thanks Kai. zb7XgP0P_o.png

  3. Meanwhile on the new artz front, I received a commission from Dingodile.

     

    Quite a unique take on my Witch-Queen Chloe Macomber.

    Rather than try to conceal the spreading of her scales he went so

    far as to depict her incorporating them into the material of her mask. Nice. zb7XgP0P_o.png

    Love the sharp look he gave the hat too.

    Hah. Oops. Well that’s a couple of new concepts at least. 

    Sure. She could be Tony Morrison's long lost cousin's sister's brother on his 3rd uncles side of the family.

    @biostem I do as well. The ones in CO just look too "plastic-y" for lack of a better word.

  5. PM sent... I think.

    Not tried one on these forums yet but you should have a message from me.

     

    Also this is now in the collab thread if anyone wants to have a go at final colors. zb7XgP0P_o.png

     

    Just click the image to go there and grab my PSD.

  6. Got permission from DD to grab this from the Art Request thread and throw some flats on it.

    I also tinted the line art on a separate layer that can easily be turned on and off.

    It's open for anyone who wants to do final colors and punch up work on it.

     

    Click the image to get the PSD file.

    Not sure how solid the visor should be but I was loathe to cover the nice work DD did on

    the face but anyone can try different opacities or FX and see what works for them.

     

    I also let a little of the blue from her visor bleed over onto her cheeks but this

    could easily be removed if it's not meant to have light shine through from above.

     

    Thoughts?

  7. Sure thing Nurse Midnight, using costume pieces in ways they weren't originally intended is kinda my jam. zb7XgP0P_o.png

     

    And I didn't even have to modd anything this time. w00t!

    These are really great. I would have never thought of using the fridge and ascension pieces. Thank you guys so much. 

    Lol, no no no you want the "Fringe" back option not the "Fridge" back option. That's a totally different profile and wouldn't

    fit the character concept at all... although you would always have a tasty snack and ice cold beverage handy when fighting crime.

     

    Heck take a thermal secondary and you'd be like a flying refridgerator microwave combo.

    You could be Micro Fridge Girl! E9rkOkuW_o.gif

    Team Captain: Gosh Fridge girl I don't know, Those 5th Column goons can be tough with

    all them vampires and werewolves and such, a good healer might just make the diff...**PING PING PING**

     

    ........ are those hot pockets?

     

    MFG: Yup.

     

    Team Captain: Sorry !337healxorz69 but we had a last minute epiphany,

    fighting evil is hard work and you can really build up a super sized appetite and...

  8. Gotta add one of my all time favorites here, Stan and Lou. Comedy genius.

    Seriously these guys could be their own thread there's so much win in this series.

     

    See for yourself.

  9. Hehehe, good one Nox.

    And welcome to the thread. zb7XgP0P_o.png

    IKR? Those weapons are ponderous.

    Interesting topic, think I have an idea for that.

     

    So current topics available if anyone else wants to jump in are

    Clockwork

    PTA/Trains

    Capes

    Shields

    "I didn't know it would do that!"

     

     

     

  10.  

    I hear ya Flash, Bobby Aquitania always used to do the same thing for me, in the time that I would take to plan out

    my pencil drawing and work up a rough sketch for a headshot/bust he would post up full color, full body

    head to toe digitally painted works and give them away FOR FREE. Sometimes a detail would be

    missing or the anatomy/pose/perspective was a bit off but what can you do to compete

    against that kind of speed and talent combined with such generosity?

     

    The short answer was don't compete. He was doing his thing and I got busy working on my thing.

    Strangely enough the couple times I offered limited commissions my slots all filled anyway.

    Art collectors (thankfully) are a greedy bunch, E9rkOkuW_o.gif they don't just want to see all of their

    heroes in one style they want to see them in as many styles as possible. As Kai said

    as long as there is interest and you are getting what you are worth don't sweat it.

     

    Also Erwin is a line-artist, he almost never colors stuff... so unless Bobby finds a way to get reincarnated you're probably fine.07K1tHnz_o.png

     

    Kidding aside for the moment one day I got an email from Bobby, blah blah thanks for all your help with my computer blah,

    hey I saw your refs for Shieldara, what do you think of this sketch? I was on my way out for dinner and had no time to

    respond,  so I figured I would do it when I got back. A followup like 20 minutes later said Hey I got bored waiting

    so I retooled it, now whatcha think? Then like an hour later when I got home this was waiting for me....

    this was the ref sheet he had seen...

    R.I.P. Buddy I miss ya terribly........

     

    ......but seriously WTF!? rFYv2e1c_o.gif

     

    Pirate Cashoo used to do the same. She was putting out more, in less time, in full color...

    and for a while she was also giving it away. Oh and she was like 17 at the time.

     

    Tough time to be an "artist" on the forums... I got humbled a lot back then lol.

  11.  

    Ahhh finally. The forums just didn't feel right without an art section! Hello to everyone already here

    and to those just now finding their way, welcome home to the new best part of the forums! zb7XgP0P_o.png

     

    This will be the place I post any new completed art, WIP's (Works in Progress)

    I am still tinkering with and any fan-art or commissions I feel like sharing.

    Comments are encouraged (I prefer them in fact) and by all means if

    you have constructive critique please do share it with me as well.

     

    Spoiler

    I'm starting my art thread over because the last one was more about troubleshooting the old forum software, asking

    if people could see the images I was posting, responding to things that were no longer there etc. than it was about the art.

    New forum software is installed, images seem to be working for now, let's try this again shall we?

     

    To the artz-mobile Batman! This was always one of my favorites, it was the winning piece for the month of January

    in one of the old FArt battles (yes we called it a FArt... short for Fan Art) from back in the day on live.

    My Fire/SS/(by powerset) Regen(by slotting) tanker, Brahn Fuhrnos... ya gotta "Feel the Burn!"

     

    Pencils and final colors.

  12. And then after PTA and Capes were subjects I combined both into this...

     

    The number one rule when boarding or disembarking... mind your cape!

     

    zGtNBt77_o.jpg

     

    For a new topic I added shields, have at ye!

     

     

     

     

  13. No not 5 minute abs, it's even better than that! It's quick drawings done in under 10 minutes. It's so simple anyone can do it!

    Take a topic from the thread, draw what comes to mind for 5-ish minutes, post your results here and pick a new topic.

    ***  Note: washboard abs sold separately, see site for details, taxes and fees will most definitely apply, operators are standing by... they like to do that for some reason *** 

     

    Topics:

    Well before the thread disappeared into the ether we had:

    Clockworks, PTA (Paragon Transit Authority) or trains/trams, Capes and Shields.

     

    I had posted this for clockworks...

     

    Time flies, when you are smashing clocks!

    and for those curious...

    Spoiler

    Originally this was a thread on the old 606 section of live called The Hot Pencil or THP started by Pyro Nympho.

    The idea is to get new people who say "wish I could draw like you guys" started drawing and to get established artists

    out of the "everything I draw has to be a masterpiece or it sucks!" mentality which can lead to art-block. Pick something fun

    and easy, put a ridiculously short time limit on it and suddenly you have no time for excuses  you just scribble away furiously for

    the time you have and post whatever results you get. No epic masterworks here, just a quick and easy way to loosen up and get drawing!

     

    Sidenote: I removed the word Pencil to encourage anyone to participate but really it's best done without a fancy tablet

    or special brushes or layers etc etc, that's really not the goal here. Just grab a pencil, a sheet of paper and any

    image capture device (scanner, smart phone, camera etc) and you're on your way to 5 minute artz!
