Heh, cute. :p

Man, I envy you people's digital coloring skills. I figured it was time to start playing with color, so I've been messing a little bit; however, I only have a mouse to work with, so mainly I'm going to stick to non-digital methods. Right now I have an angry prettyboy glaring out from on top of my table.

Otherwise, here's a preview of what I started tonight (taken with my camera, because I won't have access to a scanner until Monday):

It shouldn't be too hard to figure out what I was looking at. :p

Also, the perspective is looking good. I don't think I've actually worked with perspective since... the last time I had an assignment like that, except in the most intuitive sense. Usually I'm too lazy to attend to details like that.

Doc Ock - Pretty cool, I rather like the helmet/face plate thingy.

Katsuika - Mice are perfectly fine to work with. That's what I use whenever I do a digital drawing/painting. You just have to get used to it.
But I like that picture, especially the hair. It makes me want to poke it.

My final project for art is another perspective drawing. Somehow it's turning out less cool than that one I just posted. ^^ I picked a boring hallway to draw I guess... I'll have to focus on the reflections on the tiles on the floor. I was going to post a picture of it, but apparently my roommate took her camera with her to class, and it's too big for my awesome scanner.

Otherwise, I like playing around with colors:

It makes a pretty cool background.

Another one. I tried to be all artist-y and somehow abstractly convey how I felt at the time, but I dunno how it went. D=

Heh, that's usually the kind of haircut I like to get. People do poke at it quite a bit. :shifty:

I guess maybe I'll get used to it, right now it's just kind of frustrating though. That said, I drew this sometime over the summer, and it's one of the cleaner cartoon people I've done:

...but it's still kind of simple, so I went back and added a bit of color:

It's not great, but it's okay for a first go at digital coloring.

That stuff is pretty cool. I'm not exactly sure of mood, but the second one looks less happy than the first; I think it's the blue.

That looks good for a first try. My first attempt at digital coloring was.... not so good. Just keep practicing with lines and colors and you'll get the hang of it.

Heh well that's good. It was feeling pretty unhappy at the time of doing it and I was frustrated because I wanted to convey how I felt through "painting" but I wasn't quite sure how. ^^;

I did another one (heh sorry so many of these at once. These are kind of what I do when I feel a lot of emotions but can't get them out, my way of venting one may say.)

The black one makes me think of that Starry Night painting by Van Gogh. It's all whooshy. I like 'em though, they'd make good desktop backgrounds.

Wow, Kat - first attempt? Versus mine, you blew me outta the water.

CelesJessa 12-06-2007 07:08 PM

Thanks, I'm glad you guys liked them. ^^ Playing with colors is fun.

I got to take some of my art from class back, so I'll just post a few. I'll post more when I get the rest back and can get better light.

We were told to go find a window and draw out of it. I climbed on top of a shelf and drew out a window. Took about an hour.

Finished version of the samurai from before. Not a lot different, but I like it.

We went outside to draw. The sun was going down so I had to do it really fast so that my shadows would stay the same. ^^ It got smeared pretty badly while in holding. D=

Sorry these ones are messy. We don't get a lot of time to work on our pieces, and we're not supposed to erase so... ^^ Some of my favorite ones haven't been given back to me yet, so I'll post those later.

Crazy fangirls
 
Haha, reminds me of something a friend did, which I'm linking below (nothing is shown and it's not even very detailed but there is some nekkidness). She'll kill me as soon as she finds out I shared this, so if I disappear suddenly, you'll know what happened.

Photobucket resized the images such that it's difficult to read; I don't think she's going to upload them anywhere but she did provide the following transcript:

Cecil: You know, I'm really excited that they're finally releasing our game in a "new" format. I mean, fans love our game ...
Kain: But there's no love for us! All of those lame emo kids like Cloud get all the star treatment! Advent Children ... Peh ...
Kain: *thinking* I am so much cooler than Cloud, Squall, Tidus, Vaan, hell, even Basch or Edgar or Locke ...

Rosa: Well, I don't know ... Cecil, Kain, are you sure you want that kind of noteriety?
Kain: Of course! I mean ... at least (stupid) Auron & Setzer got into Kingdom Hearts ... We went through hell and saved the world too. I want respect.
text box: Is drunk.
text box: I am a magic growing bottle of booze.

---

chibi Cecil: Yeah. Plus, we'll have voice-actors now too. ^_^
chibi Rosa: All right ... Let's consider then Kingdom Hearts (as an example).

Rosa text box: You have Sora, the light-bearing hero ...
Rosa text box: Riku, his childhood best friend ...
Rosa text box: And Kairi, his other childhood friend and potential crush ... do you see where this goes?

Rosa text box: Sora's friend Riku turns evil
Rosa text box: But he's not really evil, just controlled and manipulated by an evil dude ...
Rosa text box: And kidnaps Kairi because evil says so ... oh, and because he likes her too ...
(shows a love triangle with names, Sora, Riku, and Kairi)
Rosa text box: And Sora and Riku must fight, but in the very end they're all friends again ...

Kain: Okay, so their situation just might kinda, sorta, maybe resemble ours. But they're still famous and we're not.

Rosa: Well, that kind of fame opens you up to all kinds of scrutiny. After all, what of the other side of the love triangle?
(shows a love triangle with names, Cecil, Rosa, and Kain)
text box points to the Cecil ---- Kain side of the love triangle: This one here, folks!

---

text box: Rosa's (tea-inspired) imagination
text box: Kain is actually taller

chibi Rosa: After all, the idea is kinda hot ... When you get the game all 3-D prettified, think of the fan-art ...

all chibis: ...

chibi Cecil: Aha ... Rule 34, eh?
chibi Rosa text: *wise nod*
chibi Kain: *thinking* DIRTY THOUGHTS

Cecil: But wait ... Doesn't that now mean we have to worry about fangirls?

*fangirl mob*
Cecil: Augh! No, too late! Quick, Rosa, love, Emergency Exit item!

*poof*

---

Kain: Ah ... safe once more. You know, Cecil, maybe fandom ain't all that crazy, there must be sane ...

chibi Kain: ... people? hello ... anyone?

chibi Kain: ?
chibi pantherdragon: HI! <3

chibi Cecil: We are going to the special hell for this.
chibi Rosa: Hush, you! It's monies.

chibi Kain: *thinking* so very naked ... and cold ...
