Title: Obligatory Art Thread
Post by: Zuzanna Alondra on 25 Apr 2010, 00:28
Everyone doodles, or does crafts, or makes things... you name it - I bet you have some sort of art you can share with the group.  So post your crafties, drawings, doodles and other art - Eve related or not here for us all to enjoy.

My normal art style is anime style and alot of my drawings are already up:
http://eve-dfias.com/forum/index.php?topic=342.0
I do have it marked as NSFW due to my laziness to to sometimes to finish a drawing - leaving a "nude" outline sketch.

However - Hav commented on another versions of Zu's avatar asking why a white layered dress that looked like a wedding dress and Miz said I need to do something other then straight anime.

So I didn't bother with an outline all together and tried a free hand drawing using only coloured pencils. Enjoy.

"The fluff white dress" - colored pencil on plain paper.

I need to get my scanner back up and running. I just bought a Wacom Bamboo two days ago, though, so hopefully by the end of the week I'll have something to share.

Also, in SWG, a lot of us spent hours upon hours with DAZ3D for those interested in something that doesn't require drawing outright.

I like it. I've been working on a manga-styled rendition of Casi, since much of the genre fits her like a glove, too. :)

I did this one of Shae and her first rp-boyfriend, Jorge (http://anjylle.cust.nearlyfreespeech.net/media/digital/ShaeJorge.jpg) last year for an April Fools' post on my blog (http://sweetlilbadgirl.blogspot.com/2009/04/visitor.html). I hate writing romances as much as I hate reading them and it was a fun way to mess with people  :twisted:

:P Welp.

I am not an "artist" in the sense that my hand can co-ordinate enough to create something that looks better than a 5 year olds work.

BUT.

I am not half bad with Photoshop :P
(http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/Xander0070/Mathra-Mercoutfit.jpg)
Original design kudos goes to Lucius Vindictus, he drew the original but I planted Math'ra's face/colours and redit a couple of the posters.

Original design by myself for my old corp

Also old corp stuff.

/agree.

Didn't care for the first one at all -- granted that has less to do with the photoshop work and more to do with the merging of two (imho) incompatible art styles -- but the last one is excellent.

:D I am more proud of the last one as its actually entirely my work.

The first one is simply to show how my character looks most of the time - as finding a decent artist to do a picture :painful:

Thanks tho :)

Half done CONCORD Spec Ops Cruiser >_>

Will probably finish when I get home from work today!

EDIT:
http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/Xander0070/201005200550.jpg

Finished Product, I would add shading and colours but it takes faaaarrr too much time in this level of detail.

So, yay - time to pick something else to do :D

Double EDIT:
http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/Xander0070/ArchonOutlinecopy.jpg

Archon carrier + station in progress >_> Decided to stop working on it at 1:10am and after cramps in my fingers.
Shall attempt to finish tomorrow and upload then.

I like the one you just finished the most Mathra - and I can totally relate to the hours of colouring reason for never colouring your pictures.

Yar, don't take my words the wrong way. You did a good job, given what you had to work with, but the style of EVE and the style of (what looks like Crysis?) don't merge well. I don't really think there's much you could have done about that save for actually drawing the whole thing up from scratch to make certain it was a uniform art style.

Math, GOOD SHIT.

You and Esna should team up for great justice.

Don't worry about me taking it the wrong way, I mostly agree with your assesment.

For lack of being able to find an artist that does EVE style, and just to fill the gap untill Incarna comes up, its there for basic reference, but thats about it.

@ Ashar - Thanks for the Kudos, RL has sapped all my time recently so I haven't been able to do much of anything other than work and sleep :P so that sort of thing may have to wait

Oh gawd Esna, yus!

I tried, went "Fuck this shit" and chose a Caldari Ship (for hand drawings) as they made my mind melt trying to draw them, yours looks wiked-sick though :P
