    Do what I do, pick your top 3 and give honorable mention to those who you wanted to vote for but couldn't. They will still appreciate it I'm sure.
  2. Certainly one of the best Schuler's I've seen. The face came out beautifully, nice catch TMS.

    Local Man plays on the generic newspaper headlines, like, "Local Man Rescues Cat Stuck In Tree". He also has a character named Area Man, created in the same vein.
    Does he have a Network man too? See what I did there...

    Cool I should be able to make this tonight as well.
    I have tons of line art of signature characters (there are plenty of busts I did for birthday sketches too)...
    if given a choice I would love to see another person tackle that War Witch sketch because I struggled
    with how to color it myself and I'm sure it would help give me some ideas to see your take on it.

    Higher rez image of it without the birthday stuff or comic speech bubbles can be found here.
    Or if you want something else just ask.

  8. Out of curiosity is that sig of yours a CoH character you have modeled too?
    (guessing it's from a different game or something as I don't recognize any of the pieces)
  9. His expression makes me sad.
    That must be intentional though right?
  10. Happy Birthday Lady Arete!!!
    Best Wishes from this side of the pond
    and have a great day... it's like mandatory n' stuffz!

    Maybe this will help.

  11. That Neko turned out great! Very cool stuff in your DA gallery too Primantiss.

    Oh yeah and welcome to the best part of the forums.
  12. That one of Ennvee is really slick.

    Oh Snap!
  14. Hey man it's good to see you posting art again and working on improvement.
    It looks like you are open to constructive criticism too and are listening and applying people's suggestions. Good stuff.

    Bonus points for the double entendre in your thread title.

    So where did they get the money to buy that popcorn they are giving you for free then?

    Granted this depends on your definition of art but yes of course art is possible without craftsmanship or technique and yes of course you can play a musical instrument without knowing previously how it worked.

    Wordlessly hand someone an obscure instrument that they have never heard of before like say a recorder and see what happens... many will figure it out and be playing it in a matter of minutes.

    Yes, CoH is a very high quality product, but it's showing its age. Heavily.


    You may not like the artistic design of CO, but it has more diverse options to go with. I'll be the first to say that I don't play CO at all regularly, I don't find it quite that fun in recent time, but the fact's still true that it has more options over CoH. Even that new APB game has customization that far outmatches CoH or CO.

    And, honestly, better graphics than any other MMO? Even with ultra mode, those are some rosey glasses...
    Yeah I was going to mention APB... customization right down to the level of designing your tattoo's and rotating/wrapping them around various parts of your body. If the videos I've seen on youtube are to believed the amount of options and customization are insane. CO also does have many options that CoH lacks but yet I'm still here.
    City of Heroes just has the right ingredients that I look for in a game and puts them together in a way few others ever have... great now I'm hungry.

    Had to laugh at this one... I am actually 6'3, into weightlifting and was totally a god at Streetfighter (regional champion).
    I've also posed as an artists model (and am something of an artist myself, mostly traditional... see my sig for examples).
    I'm also a tech expert as I build custom computers for a living (hardware specialist though, not software or development)...

    I have a few knowledgeable friends too.

    P.S. Not sure if GR will be considered a success or fail but more than likely it will not ruin the game or be the end of CoH as we know it.
    Whether it's results justify it's costs or how many new people will be drawn in remains to be seen.
    I'm hopeful.
  16. Yeah she got me a premium membership too after I did that birthday sketch for her... still not sure what all it entails but a very cool gesture. Thanks Kelly.

    My New ARTZ!

    Last I hear that guy went down to Georgia, something about carjacking a Kia I think...
  22. Heh the Kheldarn sketch is funny... is Neko dreaming of something naughty or is that a separate drawing?

    I too would like to see some shard architecture.

    I got everything up without issues on my end this time... but the CoH group will not let you post more than 3 images per day.

    It let's you go through the whole process then says you've reached the limit as soon as you hit submit and rejects any further attempts.
    I don't think that cap has ever been an issue until now because no one has ever been crazy enough to submit 5 pages worth of stuff for one months contest before.
    Those who have done multi-page work (like Pyro previously or Lousy this month) usually combine them into some fancy flash animation so in the eyes of the site it's still one "page."

    So I ended up putting all of them up to my personal gallery instead and then linking them here.
  24. If not having a perfectly completed (is there such a thing even?) entry meant you were out of the contest there would be very few people left indeed and the prior years would have been over much sooner.

    You may not get as many votes as with a completed piece but as long as Wassy declares that it meets the requirements for the month you are still in it U-naught.

    (There'd be more NPC's - and I'd probably zoom in more - the NPC's are supposed to all have just pulled off rubber masks, revealing they've been Rikti all along. But, hadda give priority to some r-l stuff (good stuff) and so none of the great, wonderous-ness of the concept will have to wait.)

    Real Life has been - well, interesting (in a mostly good way!). And I just let this one go. Sorry folks, I guess I'm out. I wish all the best of luck - honestly, everybody! (I *think* I'll be around - but much less than before)

    Sorry.
  25. I agree there are some nice costumes here... that you guys posted a year ago.
