If you post the suggestion for the next drawing in the thread it can't be guessed anymore.

Congrats to the winners! I chose 2 of the games and 3 of the movies when I voted. I think that's my closest so far. :P

Any news from the calendar contest in sight?

Unfortunately I had to leave while lovingthedark was arting.

If she is still there you should keep her some company.

And it was her wish, that we yell at her if she stops.
Response to: Ipad Platformer Game Art Concept Posted November 4th, 2012 in Art

It's a really impressive drawing, even though there are those issues with both hands that have been mentioned before. I like the pose you chose, while it might not seem like something special, it is still very dynamic and conveys the supposed power of the wizard. I like the contrast and generally the good job you did with the different light sources. From the facial expression, the skin color and the color scheme of the clothing, I get the impression that he could be an evil wizard. It would be nice to get some more info about the game's story and gameplay. I am just curious. Good job overall.

@Mabelma: Correct me if I am wrong, but I think that the robe can cover his feet from this perspective even if it doesn't quite touch the ground.

About the Tolkien discussion. He looks NOTHING like any Tolkien wizard design I have ever seen. Even if you could find one that looks somewhat similar, it's still far from being "typical".

Does anyone have any advice on how to shoot photographs a bit more inline with this style?

Well that photographer's work is very professional, but in order to compare it with yours, or to tell you what you could do to get results closer to his, we would need to see yours first.

Generally, you can tell that he has a pretty good equipment and the knowledge about shutter speed, light sensitivity, focal lenght and much more that it takes to get the desired results.

I am sure it was at least not last night. So either noon EST like the last deadline or (that's what I assume) they will accept everything that is posted during this sunday.

I think it's more the fact the vigistry post a very small preview pic and a link to his website only. That appears more like advertising rather than actually contributing to NG. Don't get me wrong it's up to him to decide how much he wants to share on Newgrounds, but that also means people are probably less interested, no matter how good the art is.

Yes, it is the buckle on the leather band of a watch.

For clarification purpose: Clasp is the broader term that is also used for all other types of "closing mechanisms" on watches. This specific kind is usually called "buckle" like its bigger brother which you'd find on a belt.

Look, I am not going to be Decky's lawyer here, but two things:

1) This does not belong in this personal art thread at all.

2) The bust you layed over the pic does look nothing like the face in Decky's pic (overlay attached)

I think that statue pic looks weird in some sense and I can understand that you are suspicious, but if anybody accuses another user, they need some sort of evidence or clue.

It's not a briefcase, but it can also be partially made of leather.

Not the "clasp" but the thing it's attached to, of course.

Alright, in that case, it is not correct.

Has anybody seen something that resembles a belt buckle somewhere else?

It is also called clasp or buckle sometimes.

No that's not the correct solution. And I don't see how it looks similar to a classic belt buckle. (single square frame and the so-called prong)

Not sure what you mean exactly. But I think you are wrong. Feel free to specify. ;)
