I feel you, brotha. Whenever things get too tough for even Jesus/Hank/Tricky, I get together a suicide team of grunts I just bought. xD

Thanks very much, I just like drawing these guys. Madness aesthetics are simple yet fun. Monochromatic with hints of red (or yellow, depending) and guns everywhere.

Anybody else been drawing their squad? I'm having way too much fun with this.

You guys've been playing Nexus, yeah? I absolutely love it. Closest thing to a Madness world RPG yet. Drew one of my main teammates, kept him since he was a wee level 20-something. Took some creative liberties, but you know. The resemblance is there.

Seriously though, don't TL;DR this, it's pretty scary.

That is one terrifying and extremely convincing horror story.

PS he did concept art for Bethesda

Thanks, I'm extremely flattered. He's a powerful influence on my love for concept art and video games.

Response to: Ehh...uhh... hey there Posted February 15th, 2012 in Art

You are pretty good at copying from pre-existing images. That insofar makes you about as useful in the art industry (assuming you want to go into it) as an old printer. I'm not trying to be mean, just stating things as they come into my thoughts.

Judging from your pics that look like they're from imagination, I can say that you understand where light hits and shadows begin, however, you are not yet fully grasping why or how, which is your next learning step. The same can be said about your anatomy (you understand where a leg goes, but you don't understand why or how it is bent like that). My advice is to--

1. Draw from life-- which is pointedly different from drawing from photos. Go outside, sit at a park bench, and doodle some people, trees, buildings, cars. Don't worry about finishing your sketches, unless you really want to. Since "real life" is always moving, this kind of practice will push you to learn much faster than copying.
2. Go online, the library, wherever you feel like getting a resource, and learn about anatomy at your leisure. Draw musculature. The arm isn't two rods connected by a joint, it works the way it does because of dozens of muscles being in certain places on the skeleton.
3. Just plain keep drawing. If you like drawing, keep drawing, nuff said.

Also of note, you have good linework, which is an uncommon compliment among artists, haha! Keep at it.

Response to: Skyrim or Mass Effect 2? Posted February 14th, 2012 in Video Games

Skyrim is pure sandbox, I'd say the best sandbox of any games insofar released. Lots of fun, and also if you get the PC versions, lots of cool-to-funny DLC like Valve's Space Core.

ME2, I highly recommend if you're more into very good storytelling marked with minute but obvious sandbox elements like choosing responses in conversations, how your Shep reacts to certain events, so on and so forth. Great main cast, amazing story, but you'll be missing out on a lot if you haven't played the previous installment.

Response to: what is a weebo? Posted May 22nd, 2011 in General

Weeaboos have unhealthy obsessions with Asian culture, especially Japanese culture. If you see a non-Asian trying to act Asian, chances are, they are a weeaboo.

I've witnessed some kid using eye glue to appear more Asian. While wearing a pink wig. While failing at choputsticksu. Weird shit, man.

Jinberry I actually need to work on values. This was more of a test run in monochrome. I don't paint in b&w too often, which I honestly should.

I'm definitely interested.
If you're still looking, could get a sample of something you've worked on?

S0lk's Sketches + Concepts Thread Posted May 21st, 2011 in Art

An online sketchbook, if you will. Also, not sure what NG's Art Portal constitutes as sketch, so I'll just be pouring my less finished-looking work here. :) Thanks for stopping by!

NOTE: Collaborations? I collab selectively based on the strength of the game, how well I can contribute and how much of my time is available. Last thing I want to do is drag down a team because my own schedule sucks, which is often. Just a forewarning.
