Excellent work! I'm always jealous of people who can do work in color.

What's there to explain? Nothing went on after that. Talked a bit, but nothing much else.

She was hot.

I can't draw a circle with a compass, a line with a ruler, or a cube with a cubeler.

I am WAY not an artist. I never draw anything, never even doodle, I have no sense of perspective. This is the only thing I've drawn in the last five years or so. Please take it easy on me: sketch.

edit: oh yeah, expand the pic if you have the autofit settings on, because it doesn't look too good small.

You can tell which figure I focused more on. Drew it from a digital photo I had on the computer.

Uhm, I'm in no position to really critique, but if I may point a few things out;

You might want to reduce the size of the guy's pupil to half its size right now; he looks a bit . . . scary right now.

Anyhoo, the quote I bolded reminds me of what Picasso said "'artist' is a gift word" - you can't really call yourself an artist; no offense to anyone here, but if freakin' Picasso said that he can't call himself an artist, then well, I'm sure as hell not going to call myself an 'artist', IMO; btw, what qualifies even in 'gift word' terms, for someone to be called an 'artist'?

So if you got some paintings, drawings, scupltures, whatever, post it here...

Snake king - something i drew up in my spare time after being away from a pencil and paper a long time. Can't wait to color it, or make it a 3D model. :p
