Wow. That is the only word I have for this. Just wow.
It's like you people aren't even humans.
I hate myself for devoting this much of my time to this website.

I imagine the situation to be similar to if you saw a dead body on the streets and decided to poke at it with sticks - you shouldn't be doing it in the first place because the cops would be ones to deal with it and if they find you poking the body, what do you expect to happen?

did i state at any point in my whole rant that I hate the art forum? Eh, you probably didn't read it anyways, nor will any one. It's a few paragraphs long, so you'll all assume it's negative and that I'm wrong. When in actuality all of that was fact. I left out personal opinions as much as possible.

After everyone's ban lasting only a day, It's kinda hard to be pissed about this. But I felt like I should point out some things about that thread. After I received my ban, it directed me to the bbs rules. After noting that none of us had broken any of them, I clicked on the art forum specific rules to try to dig for more. Then things got a little more interesting.

What you're looking at right now is a screenshot of the art forum rules. Underlined/bracketed in red is all the rules that the original poster broke. His thread was neither for the purpose of "critique, or serious artistic discussion". As he was rather quick to point out. He also broke the rule of posting directly to the forum. Seeing as how he claimed that the only image he posted had absolutely nothing to do with anything, the thread was just an advertisement for his website. He was also being a dick, so "negativity" is also underlined. He was not banned for any given amount of time.

Underlined in purple is what most of us gave. No one came in there specifically flaming. Underlined in blue is the one and only official rule that I could find that any of us broke. Which honestly, is broken by half the bbs daily, so whatever. We were all banned for 24 hours.

Among the blue and purple, was Big Johnny. he did not receive a ban though, because Turkey knows him better than the rest of us. Carrion was also banned for 24 hours, though I cannot find anything he did to be wrong.

So yeah, just felt like pointing all that out. I'm not trying to spark a fight or anything, but I just want to lay that out and show you why that was all pretty week. Lesson learned, be real nice to da mean peoples, you don't wanna hurt dare feewings. Even though my band reason was "being a douche." Doesn't make a lot of sense in retrospect, huh? :P

Because, like I said; I thought I had to post a picture to follow the rules. My bad bro, had I known I didn't have too then I wouldn't have.

*facepalm* why are you here.
i'm not even going to waste my finger strength trying to explain why that was a really dumb paragraph. g'night.

The old rules stated that a picture had to be submitted with a thread and I had no reason to believe, that the rules were changed in anyway.

i think it's kinda silly that you posted something that apparently has nothing to do with the thread.

a drawing of skrillex, i assume ;o

MASSSSIVVVVE TL;DR, so excuse me if what I say has already been settled.

gun guy, shut up. they're bringing up valid points as to why the integrity of the gun is compromised. it's very impractical, and we're helping you branch on your design. If you don't want critiques and you just want us to shower you with praise, then you shouldn't have your own thread.

Personally, I think all previous statements about the gun are right, the recoil would fucking slice you open. I also feel that such a large gun should have a larger barrel. i think it's kinda silly looking that this tiny pea shooter has Kratos blades on it.

not bad at all! it just need some depth and feeling. it's all a bit flat. I would say to just keep practicing though, you certainly have potential :) learn from your favorite artists and study their work for reference. practice shading, coloring, etc.

looking forward to seeing more :)

Why on earth would he want that? There's already a reference pic, what's the use of remaking it?

*sigh*
okay, let's reword that i guess.
"I'm sure you could make it seem very life-like :D"
and i'm sure he's going for life like, because what is art if it has no soul or emotion. twas a compliment. lax.

and lol, oops xD an hour and 15 minutes is still very good. you seem to have an understanding of where everything should be. i would just recommend refining it a bit more, smoothing everything down and making it all sharp. :)

O_o what about the timestamp

i don't know xD it's 4 in the morning and I've had more than substantial amounts of caffeine. please disregard anything i say until day break. :3

i know what you mean dude. Me and deviantart have an understanding that I will be showered with praise as long as it's fan art.....lol

I'm 22!

TIMESTAMP. lol

quite good :) rather sloppy, I assume this is because it's all on one layer. But it's very well done for just fifteen minutes. If you put more time into it, I'm sure you could make it seem real :D

thanks for this one, i hadn't seen it before! :D i'll be sure to check it out.

draw duke nukem in a ballerina outfit, exorcising the demons from Dante from Devil May Cry (also dressed in a ballerina outfit) ;D

i'll try a sketch-over thing tomorrow where I do my best to put things into proportion. :)

also, as for the chicks face issue, make her nose smaller, raise/thin out the eyebrows, and thicken the lineart on the top of the eyes to imply she's wearing eyeliner maybe. these will all make her look more feminine. :D

you seem to know all the other more anatomical problems so far, so I'll wait to see what you have for us next. I would also make the gun substantially bigger.

you'll get much better help than you will here, this sort of thing is there specialty.

trolled softly? or are you being serious?

damn, those colors really make it pop! this is def. your best piece yet. my only recommendation is to not draw too much attention to the background. make it really detailed and everything, but maybe blur it slightly or use darker colors. you don't want the focus of the picture (IE, the pinup chick) to blend in to the background or be muddied out.

great work so far! looks like you're really taking your time on it.

yes, but you're clearly not ready to post in a thread if we can't even see what you're posting, and you're saying yourself that you suck :3 in fact, why did you make this thread?

this is amazing xD
After his whole scandal and everything and this, I'd at least give him a pat on the back if he came up like, "okay guys, I basically don't want to be a president, peace out"

great idea for a thread :D I'll be back when I see some stellar artwork.

Though comments thoughts criticism is always appreciated.

damn, that is some rad line art. love the line weight and thickness of it. The 3 hour effort you put really shows! cannot wait to see the color :D
