OK... let me say it.... darn.

LOL

Great going Alex... keep it up!

Jim

OMG!!! I totally forgot about that, Rowrsie!! ::checking my stuff:: There it is... I know you did a good job of those pieces, darlin... My mind has just been rattled a bit lately, and I've not been thinking straight for a while...

forgive me? ::waving white flag::

Jim

Myself, I'm a Triumph server kind of guy. all my main toons are on there, but I do have 1 that I have with the Art SG in Liberty by the name of Lighthawke. I sort of RP that one, but not much. I just have too many things going on to be sitting at the computer RPing myself, when I could put out good artwork... just my opinion.

Anyways, I'm going back to the game and play a while longer... at least until I need to draw again!! LOL

Jim

This is such a cool use of the screenshot, and it warms my heart that it's being done in a patriotic way. Keep it up, Nexus!!

Going back to my drawing board...

Jim

Hey Sorah, if you want to... go ahead and ink whatever you want of my stuff... I just want to see how it turns out. Never been inked before.

Jim

And I will as well!! Happy Birthday ROX!

back to my drawing board... Jim

Great stuff, Sorah! By the way... I may want to PM you about getting some critiques from you and Bob, if he's free to do so.

Jim

If you want me as a mentor, Juggie... LOL I'm flattered!

Jim

::sharpening his pencils for more sketching goodness::

Excellent work, Sorah! And you have a heckuva mentor with Bob Layton too. If some of you guys don't know, he was the regular artist for Marvel's "Iron Man" in the 80s. Very solid work and still good compared to today's "hot artists".

Jim

Sign me up!!

@AngelWhiteChampion

Jim

Rowrsie's right, ya know... until she's 50... can't be an ultimate. LOL

Jim

Consider me a joiner on this one! I'll be back later with my hero name and sign me up for the SG!!

Jim

Congratulations, Alpha!! Best of luck to your family, and many happy days in the future for you and yours!!

ouch....pic my favs....thats a toughy. no particular order (minus linkies):
*Britannia...most of the pics representing her.

*Katfood's gal in the cell...forgot her name (and to lazy to look)...the lighting was simply amazin.

*pretty much every thing DarkJedi touches...nuff said

*Alex's work...like it so much have two commissions from him and workin on a 3rd. friggin great work and fast ta boot.

*Jim Tessier's whiteperegrine

*the back shot of Farstrider flying...very cool!

*quake's sketch of whiteperegrine...still kills me that people dont request line work from him more often.

*jugg's "airbrush" work in the digi realm...so cool and different

*starcasm's chibi's...cuteness unbound. heh

*scarfs quasi bust shots that are bordered...very cool

....sad thing is I could go on and on. there is so much good art flowin through this place. to narrow it down to a couple pieces is like saying you have to choose between your two favorite desserts....sure it can be done if you had ta do it...but I prefer to be the pig and take em both. as such, in the end I select em all. greedy? yes I am.~

Wow, someone mentioned me?? Thanks whiteperegrine! I really enjoyed doing the work, and all the artwork that I've done in this past year for all of you guys n gals....

Means a lot to be mentioned! I could say that I have one favorite and be done with it, but I cannot. All the artists that I've seen in the past year on these forums have been nothing short of extraordinary... or dare I say it.... heroic?

But all in all, all the artists deserve the kudos you guys are giving. Let's hope that next year brings out more of the creative spirit in them!

Going back to my drawing table now...

Jim

Looks great, TA... Your mom is pretty darned good!!

Jim

Buckeye, I have to say that you find the right people to make your toons come alive. Great piece by the artist.

BTW, when are you gonna commission me again?? LOL

Back to my drawing table...

Jim

SAAWEET!!!! really nice pictures my friend!

Jim

BAS,
I've played as Captain Victory on Triumph Server.

Jim

I have to get some screenies of Angel Black available for you, Derek... don't worry gang. Next post will have those screenies...

Back to my drawing board...

Jim

Hey guys... sorry about the delay for the screenies, but I've been busy. Here are color guides for both Angel White and Champion.

Champion

Angel White

Hope to see more of the pictures!!

Jim

I agree with alex... the right leg of Crimson should be back more. the swimmer pose is a great reference for the picture.

Jim

Then why not create our own leadership as Chase has stated? And to comment on the EULA... as I read it, it's not to reproduce any game content, which I read as making videos or the like from the game itself, not fan art.

I could be wrong, and I might be... but hey, everything's up for interpretation.

But I agree that we as an art community, and we ARE a community, should organize as a united base and have these guys listen up. We have a lot of talent on these forums, and I think of myself as pretty handy with the pencil myself, and it should be recognized more.

My two cents...

Back to the drawing table... I have fan art to make...

Jim

Ok, to clear things up... if you guys don't have 3 toons, I'll do a 1 for 1 swap. Just pick out of the 3 and I will match it.

Tell me what you are going to draw and I'll send screenies!

Jim

Sweet job!! I rather liked the change in position for the lead foot on Warfox... it looks a lot better.

Jim

I like it a lot, alex! It has a life, which is important for any drawing. Speaking as an artist who has done this particular toon, the likeness and demeanour of the toon feels very good. Will be keeping my eye on this thread for the progress of this piece!!
