@Elisabeth:
Captain Ugly, I love how your Valentine video is a commercial for your games XD
Mastellow ! You made a wired me :D
And now here I go :D
I want to thanks Monkidi for pushing (a bit) to make one, Kenny for the sweet video he made just for me :D, and Trappy for the best compliment ever <3 (you're the most cutest lovelyest thing ever).! Clp7o7CBvU8
Your accent is so cute! You must be a real heart breaker Miss Heart
Oh there was lots of singing, I also told Belle she was marrying me.
lol Yeah I kinda rock, Gastons the shit. I wish he was an OP character, I may eventually photo bomb an OP shoot as Gaston anyways.
How can I talk to you when I've got 32! WOO! my shiny teeth and me!
Hahah oh lord, that's the one thin gthat gets stuck in my head worse then "My shiny teeth and me" by Chip Skylark
Didn't see a thread, feel free to move this discussion if I'm wrong.
Whose going from the forums?
As word would have it the One Piece photoshoot will be on Saturday at 2pm, meeting in one of the lower areas of the convention center, I believe by the food court somewhere (I'll update with the location and more precises details later)
However we're not on the official schedule for photoshoots, so things might get bloody.
I suspect a good turn out, I'll be wearing Whitebeard and either Baseball king or Time Skip Sanji, Gaston, and Snow.
Hahha Sai how do you feel about Ember? I post this knowing that for the rest of the day I'll here "Emmmberrr you will rememmmberrr" over and over in my head.
It's part of a series I'm working on, so thanks, Yeah I used some real and not so real computer parts and machinery for concept.
I've always liked drawing machines and robots, as well as humans so it seemed like a good idea to fuze them somehow
^edit: I'll let you know. You just reminded me that I have an art- trade that was overdue for 5 months X_o… Maybe I could finish it this time since I'm a tiny bit better now compared to then.
Hahha I know how it is dude, I'm still in the middle of that art fight thing Mryllok and I started god knows how long ago, and sometimes I go months with out adding to it cause I get frustrated that I can't seem to draw what I want, but it's really helped me improve, so hey no complaints there.
I've been trying to decide whether or not to weigh in on this, the whole matter kinda hits real close to home.
My entire life I put drawing on a shelf more or less, it was this thing I loved, but didn't think I was all that good at, and through a odd string of events I recently realized if I want to be happy in life, I really need to do what I love, and in chasing the dream I've really turned my life around.
That is to say I want to go into comics, which is an incredibly competitive field, and its also a discouraging one. You can find posts, articles, and blogs like this all over the internet. It's just a matter of if you let it discourage you or not I suppose, I know I might not ever make it in the Comic field, I know I'm 20 years old and to most that might seem young, but in what I want to do I'm behind on the game, but I also know that if I never try, I'll regret it for the rest of my life.
So I practice every day, I draw as much as I can, I started going back to school, I'm taking art classes for the first time (Till now I've just been self taught, save for the basics in highschool and such, and from an artistic background) and I'm going to sweat, I'm going to cry, and I'm going to bleed comics and art until I either make it, or I die.
Any career, any dream, whatever it's all about what you put in to it.
Hahah yeah, It's okay I'm not sure splodin penguin's are really my bag either, Karen's just into some fuuureaaky stuff ;)
I've never made it to your art thread before, which is apparently pretty sad, your pretty damn good Hiroy.
I think I actually watch you on Deviant Art, I've at least seen some of this stuff before.
If your ever interested in a trade or something lemme know, I really like your stuff.
Hahha when I was real little I watched it all, my favorites were transformers and speed racer, DBZ and sailor moon didn't start when I was real little, I do remember coming home every day after school and watching it, but when I was younger than that It was all about Robots, Cars, and a speeding blue hedgehog.
You hated the muppets? 0-0 I could understand sesame street but the muppets?
hahah no it's cool
Haha it was kinda like the muppets, except these muppets lived in caves.
I emmmm dee booox ghooooooooooooooooooooost! hahah man Sai, your thread is such a trip down memory lane :< what's next some Sai drawn fraggle rock? Although I suppose fraggle rock is a little older than Danny Phantom.
Some progress shots of the Baseball Kings Sanji and Whitebeard
@JERK:
The reason Oda is good is because of what he doesn't do as much as what he does.
16 characters of touche'.
@JERK:
1. That's a movie, it has nothing to do with Real One Piece (the manga) and Oda didn't write it.
2. Doesn't that absolutely kill the idea of the real OP being that? Do you think Oda would let the movie producers use the idea he had for the real series? Well. If he were dumb enough to make the ending a sappy one liner maybe he would lol.
And the brothers terribly skewered, the nations sundered, the wars started…sigh...Yeah, Lord of the Rings has a lot of FELLOWSHIP thematics too, but that doesn't make it ABOUT that.
If it were that simple Blackbeard's crew would be a-ok, rather then clearly being set up as thematic villains at odds with Luffy. There's so much more to this story.Then you belong to the No camp.
Of course whatever physical thing it ends up being will have great abstract meaning. That goes without saying.
In fact I'd say people who think it will be a completely meaningless object like gold are only slightly less hopeless then the HOPE YOU ENJOYED THE GRAND LINE LOL people.
I'm not stating a firm position on the matter really, It's all up to Oda in my eyes I think he is a brilliant story teller and however he presents whatever "One Piece" really is fine with me, he really hasn't let me down in the past and he never seems to disappoint, whatever the ending is I'm sure he will be able to justify it.
as for my post I think you misunderstood a bit, but it doesn't matter. I was mostly talking about my personal opinions on the matter, I just don't see him leaving it to something like a note, I don't think he would have let the movie do that if that was his real ending, it's mostly a cop out.
I was mostly just saying that no matter how it ends it's a great story, it's been able to affect me personally, and that's damned powerful.
"fear me" but really I think it's "HAHA YOU JUST STEPPED IN POOP DUDE BRO"
She isn't bad, she sings about relateable experiences and her music is damned catchy. I mean hell, even my Mom owns Teenage Dream (and I'll admit I ripped it to my computer)
No where near what I would put on in the car or any sorts of for my leisure listening but Mehhh she's Aiiiight
I've always kinda figured we'd get the moral of the story-y sorts of ending with something like "OH IT WAS THE JOURNEY THAT WAS OUR TREASURE ALL ALONG"
That as an ending is kinda cheap, and more or less expected, the only bit of it I think I'd really enjoy is Nami's reaction to the lack of shiny gold pieces for her to hoard.
Not to mention, One Piece (although not the manga) has already pulled that ending once, in the first movie if I recall correctly the treasure was a tattered pirate flag and a note more or less expressing; that your friends and the adventures and time you share(d) with them, are and or is the real treasure.
I would think with Oda's integrity he probably wouldn't pull something like that, I'm sure One Piece will be something grand in the terms of the story.
When it comes down to it though, for those of us who have followed the series for years, standing at the horizon, seeing the end just in the distance, it's safe to realize and admit One piece really is the journey, and the friends we have made along it. It may make me sound like a hermit in ways but the time I've enjoyed related to One Piece, and the friends I've made because of it, has changed me as a person for the better, I treasure the series and everything that has happened in my life because of it. So I can't be as excited as Luffy or the Straw hat crew because I found One Piece a long time ago, and I'll always hold on to a piece of it in my heart. /mushy crap.
lol has I anyone seen that trailer for FFXIII-2 Seriously if we get dress spheres or anything of the such I might blow a gasket.
That and it's always worth mention that Snow is really the bastard love child/test tube clone baby of Zell and Seifer from VIII.
That would make for an interesting plot point in the next game….
Nice stuff dude, I'd love to see you work with color more, your works really good.
What? I've barely posted since last years award and I can't even say I've really cosplayed XD
Oh well, Thanks guys! It means alot and if my dear friend Ichnob reads this, not only do I not understand why you weren't in the running, I'm rather confused as to why you weren't the winner.
Todays my first day of classes, I'm going to school now! That's only mildly related however, my life's taken a busy turn, but I plan to be active around here still.
I have a girlfriend, also school, and with any luck a job. So updates on my end will be wishy washy as ever (heck I'm in class right now XD)
But I plan on going home tonight and drawing up a storm, so hopefully somewhere in that storm, will be my round XD.
I have more of an idea of what to draw now anyways.
!
I figured this belonged here, it just hace me loling MIRACLE BATTLE CARDDASS
Dear AP I'm kinda depressed and nostalgic tonight, I've been feeling terrible physically these days, my healths really gone down the tubes in the "rest of my life" sorts of manner, I've been so nauseous and in so much pain for about a week now that I'm constantly feeling like I need to cry.
So I decided to look through my old con pics, and I'm gonna do a massive update with pics dating from way back when to real recent. I've come along way in 10 years of conventions, I've dropped 60 pounds, I've moved 4 times, but I've always, always made sure to have fun.(this is sort of a cop out since I have no pictures of my Baseball kings Sanji or Whitebeard yet XP soon though, soon)
See? I've lost a looooot of weight over the years
MENTLEGEN
The above image is why I do not enjoy fangirls or slash. Dudes like my brother, and not cause he is black (especially since I think he is probably the whitest black man I know)
Not a con below, but this is generally what I feel like when I wake up most mornings at cons, Like I havent slept and people need to leave me alone in my rocking chair until this damn headache goes away. (also I quit smoking wooooo hooo!)
I LOVE taking pictures that make me look like a total derp.
got convinced to do squall again recently by a friend, it was turrribull.
god I wish this pic turned out better, I love it so much Q_Q
SO yeah, Random picture dump, con schedule is BUSY this year.
I will probably be headed to San Diego for this years comic con (in the event that I can actually snag a ticket for me and my lovely girlfriend)
Speaking of which
Thats her X3 if any of you follow my art thread, she totally said yes
Dude, I don't even know what to do, you made my jaw hit the fucking floor epic as shit.
Hahahha I figured you woulda enjoyed something sexy at least XP if it'll help motivate you along I will totally draw some GarpxSengoku smut.
I'm really curious to see how you'll draw me X3 I'm so excited.
(Sorry I'm bringing this back but I feel I should clarify myself)
CoralSnake, I hope I didn't offend you with that gay-comment, I only meant it as a compliment.
Maybe I worded it in an odd way, but I know you get lot of hate for your yaoi-arts so I wanted to say that even though I'm not really fond of them either, I still like them because you draw them so well. And HOT.
I actually read yaoi etc. quite a lot, for the coughart and storycough, but I don't like porndoujins.
(erm, even I think this sounds confusing and contradicting, sorry, I'm not good at putting my thoughts into words ;_;)Um, in other words, I'm in love with the way you draw hothothot old, buff, muscular guys and perfect broad shoulders and thick necks and hands and abs and omg nakedness and they're fondling each other-
BUT AT THE SAME TIME
I'm put off by the fact that they're One Piece characters. And it doesn't help that you can draw them so perfectly, I absolutely love how you can capture the personality and feeling of every OP-character.(I mean, look at that Ace, he looks like he came straight from the manga but instead emiting that "Hello, I'm drawn by Oda" it's "Actually I'm handsomely buffer and obviously by CoralSnake".)So I'm caught in this "I love it/I don't like it"-limbo and am confused and that's why I had to say that I don't really care for your gay-stuff. For I dont know what to think of it and hoped that was neutral enough. If it wasn't, then please think that it is ^^`
About the pants, like you said I'm sure it wouldn't have looked odd to me if it was inked. Even though you decided to redraw it, I say ink it too and show there's nothing wrong with that Ace! =)
And please keep on drawing lovely old men and posting them here.
Well I didn't mean to imply that you were being mean, I guess it's jut the kinda thing where if it bugs you it should just be considered common courtesy to keep it to yourself, and just compliment her from the artistic stand point.
Like, I'm not exactly a yaoi hater, but I do find the occasional pairing pretty…revolting? But good art is good art, if someone drew Sanji and Zoro screwing and I thought it was an awesome drawing despite the loads of NSFW homo-erotic loving, I'd tell them that they did a great job.
Coral is an awesome artist, and you appreciate that so don't worry so much! lol like I did a drawing for her in an art trade, she wanted Garp and Sengoku arm wrestling, I assume she probably wanted them shirtless and sweaty having a real hard time not jumping across the table and having some angry sex, but that's not me so I drew something a little more comical. Were all different, that's why it's art.
I voted for pier I think XD my memory fails me, I MISS YOU MOKE Q_Q and my dear sweet Chrissie-chwan too
Both actually, I might not post much these days but I lurk your thread among a few others
Saaaai, I keep meaning to tell you, I love that damn Danny Phantom drawing X3 soooo cute. Nossstalgiaaaaa
That Delta is SPECTACULAR, I cannot wait to see it finished
There's really a store called "Dick Blick"?
At least in Illinois, they're a chain but I can't say I know if it's state, national, or world wide. I can say however that they are one of the nicest art supply stores around, they have EVERYTHING, you have no idea how long I was looking for a hand mannequin.
I do still recommend online, a single marker at most retailers is about 7.00 dollars US, where as most online sellers of the marker sell for about 3.50
http://www.dickblick.com/products/copic-sketch-markers/
not a bad price on their online store 4.87, if I can find where I bought mine at (the site that had them for like 3 bucks) I'll post a link here and in my art thread
@Sniper:
Hi, I like your art. :happy:
And I have a question about copic markers…Where could I find them? Right now I use...pens and colored pencils...>.<
If you can find a dick blick, they have the full selection, otherwise Hobby Lobby has some too.
My recommendation, find them online, it has it'd disadvantages (not being able to test the marker for instance) but you can get them for about 3 bucks cheaper a marker
You know I can't help but think that's a little rude Gjork, I mean I understand things like that make some people uncomfortable (Really I'm not a yaoi fan at all so I can sympathize) but that's what Coral likes to draw, if it really bugs you just don't look. Or do what I do and be mature enough to appreciate the fact that she is an AWESOME artist and she is drawing things that intrest her (as creepy as they may be sometime ;) )
Also Coral, What's the word with the Art Trade? I'm getting ready to draw you something else just to motivate you jerk.
