Ha ha, yeah I saw that. All of them are done by Weisi, who is in no means just some kid spamming the portal.

I agree, that's exactly what I thought of as soon as I saw the name to this thread. I don't have high hopes for their new game to have a happy ending.

What do you mean? Like the lack of people discussing the portal in this thread? Hey if there's nothing to say there's nothing to say, it's just something this thread can be used for.

HA HA

I seriously hope you're kidding, Orphan is such a piece of garbage. Me and my friend just got back from seeing it and we guessed what the "hell of a twist" was within the first half hour of the movie. The film dragged on for far too long and took WAY too many cheap shots for it to be considered scary. I'm not saying I didn't enjoy the movie, it was hilarious. It met every expectation that I had of it, which was none.

Hey that's my job D:

And back to LegolaSS's topic, as far as painting munnies go, or any other DIY figures, I would say that as long as you spent a decent amount of time on it and it looks than go ahead and put it in the portal. DIY Vinyls are made with the intent for people to paint on them and make them unique; put on their own variation of a theme.

I don't see why it really shouldn't be allowed in the portal, unless one of the other mods disagrees and decides to bash me over the head for such nonsense.

Art theif! Art theif!

He's been dealt with, I could find proof for all but one of them which is good enough. Thanks for the heads up!

I've played a demo of the combat for batman, and it is pretty simple. One button for attack, one for counter, one for stun. But what it loses in complexity it makes up in style, watching the combat unfold is damn cool. It slows down periodically to emphasize certain finishing blows, as well as slows down and zooms in for the final blow of the fight so you can watch him kick a guy in the head up close in personal.

It is incredibly basic, but i still really enjoyed it though.

I read a concept for a game a long time ago in a magazine that involved the main character being some sort of Frankenstein-esque monster, and whenever you killed an enemy you could rip off their body parts and sow them onto you, replacing old ones or just adding on. So like you could rip really awesome body parts off of bosses and stuff.

I don't remember where I read this but I remember thinking how cool of a game it would be.

Like they said, anybody who is already scouted has the ability to scout someone.

Second how will they find your art?

Cast pretty much covered it, but anyone who is scouted can see a section of the portal called the "unscouted section". Here scouted users can see the art of any user who is unscouted and has 4 or more pieces of art. If you do not have at least 4 pieces your art will NOT show up in the unscouted section.

Third how long does it take to get scouted cause I have sume un scouted art.

It takes as long as it's going to take. If you are a good artist than you will be scouted. If you are not a good artist than you won't be scouted, it's very simple. If you aren't getting scouted don't get disheartened, just keep drawing and trying to get better and one day maybe you'll get in.

Also for any future questions about the Art Portal please refer to the Official Art Portal Q&A Thread, and if it doesn't answer your question ask there.

I'm pretty excited for it. I do think that it does look like it could be good, but even if it's horrendously awful i'll probably still love it.

I'm a sucker for bad horror films

Couldn't really find out if it's metal or plastic, but there is an attached stand. Which is incredibly lame, I was looking forward to defending my dorm with a batarang.

Not saying that they'll be the greatest thing ever. But they are advertised EVERYWHERE as fully functional. If they aren't functional that's not just letting the buyers down, that's asking for a lawsuit.

I had read it was metal, I think it's time to do some research. Metal or plastic, it's still pretty cool :P

At 7/26/09 05:41 PM, BlueFlameSkulls wrote: No they aren't.

Well everywhere is saying they are functional, i'll believe that masses. If they don't work than fuck it they don't.

I also would like to add, BFS, that even if the goggles weren't functioning i'd probably still buy it. If i get the money from this piece of art I sold i'm probably going to buy the special addition of Batman that comes with a metal full size replica of his batarang.

because that's just badass

No i'm not, the big selling point is that they are FULLY FUNCTIONING night vision goggles, they wouldn't be allowed to say that if it wasn't.

Quoted from their release video "Can see up to 50-60 ft in absolute darkness".

They're legit

Also, is there some sort of official sign up to this, or do you just say that you are a member and do the things that members do?

It's actually more bleach blonde/pink now because it's really faded. No there is no official sign up, this thread is merely a place to get people interested in the Art Portal, as well as a place for you guys to post shenanigans that you find or just discuss the portal in general.

I hope it isn't bad, i'm actually pretty excited about that game. The art style is so sick.

I pre-ordered the Modern Warfare 2: Prestige edition pack the other day, I wonder how hard it will be to play the game while wearing night vision goggles....

Not really sure if this is a request or not, but all new threads must have an original work of art in the first post. Maybe you should try asking in The Art Forum Lounge

Don't bother, it's thoroughly disapointing

There are two people to the left of me, but no neither are jhonen. The to my immediate left is my best friend and to the far left is my mentor/boss/best friend

Thanks for all the new support guys, it's really appreciated.

Damn you for upstaging me! Now I have to make another one :P

Here's a scan of my template, it got a bit foldy in the corners, but it still works.

Now if anyone wants one they can print it out and have one of their own :)

Kind of a lame drawing (do something original!) but really awesome concept!

Here's a picture of mine put together, hopefully i'll get a chance to scan it later tonight so if anybody wants to print it out and have one of their own they can!

It's not new, everyone is apparently just too cool to check to see if the thread they're about to make has already been made.

I didn't feel like trying to get any of the fallout trophies, because by the time they were implemented i had already done all but i think 4 or 5 of them. So being the lazy bastard i am i just didn't have the will to go and do it again.

Well I made a sig for our little patrol, if you want to be cool like me you can grab it HERE, make sure you have it linked to this thread!

please excuse my lack of photoshop capabilities XD
