I suggest listening more to threadwood, he's given you a bunch of advice and you've only followed it in the most miniscule amounts. He knows what he's talking about.

You're art would increase by amazing amounts if you worked on your linework and practiced fundamentals a bit more. The polished turd example is a fantastic simile because that's basically what you're doing. Without fundamentals your bound to fail.

im really not drawing to please anybody, i only draw out of boredom, but i guess i'll try to work on my lineart and tone down the dodge n burn.

And sorry splurda, but no, still not exactly up to par. And yeah, I've drastically changed the standard of this series. If you'd like, i'd be glad to include anything of yours in the extras portion of the collab... i've set aside another bit for those who didn't make it.

lol thats ok, and yeah you can put it in the extras lol where should i send it?

Yes, we are going for the best we can find this time. We've been saying that for the last, I don't know, 49 pages? But you're right. Yours is better than a lot in the previous SSC's.

lol i only read the first post and the ones on the pages i posted on, so sorry for my err lack of knowledge about the quality of parts in this SSC :P

and to make this post less pointless... i added sounds and music... because it seemed to need them.

I'm thinking not but its up to Zed.

It isn't terrible, though.

i'm guessing that you're only going for the best you can find this time, cus i know that mine is better than some of them from stick showdown 3.

this time it's relevant:

would this be good enough for the collab now?

i seriously have nothing to do while my gf is on holiday you see...

good stuff, though.

lol not really
just a shitload of glow and alpha'd previous frames :/
work on your actual animation skills with sticks before trying to make things look good with effects.

i don't tend to animate sticks, if i actually bother to animate anything at all, but heres it without the effects cus im really bored.

This, I just got off playing it. COD4 got this right, they recognized that a controller is poor for aiming, so they added a little auto aim and smoothness. It's a shame, if KZ2's aiming was better I would probably like this game a lot more, but having to trudge through it the way it is now brings down the whole experience.

pussies need an auto aim, killzone 2 is for badasses, oh teh noes i got pwned cus i can't point a crosshair in the direction of bright orange lights D:!!!

i just got killzone 2 yesterday and it's an incredible game form the graphics to the action, it keeps you on your toes and has a great feeling to it, better than the first, which was also a great game, so yeah get killzone 2.

all you did was slap some font onto a pentagram that you didnt draw...

Hehe.. Starving for a little attention eh ;)
Allright, allow me to comment a bit on your dragon:
First of, pretty cool picture, good expression, nice to see you put some work into the texture. The scales look good, especially on the neck, the seem to follow the shape of the body best there.
On the other side, your linework is a little sloppy, best seen on the front of neck were the lines overlap, and thats a shame. Also the smoke(?) looks a bit off, not the smoke from the notrils, but the larger smoke clouds. Its just not nesesarry and removes attention from the textures. If you did this in layers then I would suggest you try to move the smoke behind the dragon instead of infront of it. And pehaps try to make somekind of texture in it, you know, as if there is some wind in the room.
But still overall a good drawing :)

yes i am starving for attention rofl, i remember the art forum as being a lot more active.

i didnt notice the overlapping lines until you mentioned them, noted for next time, infact i think i should work on removing the lines all together to make it look more realistic plus the black outline clashes with the (hopefully) more realistic shading, and the smoke is infront and behind the dragon because i thought that it wouldn't only be behind but all around it, but it is kind of distracting, aswell as it just being textureless, i cant really fix that because i dont save many editable files because i barely ever touch them again, but i shall take your advice on the lines and smoke etc.

also heres a doodle in pencil with disproportionate width legs. an apocalyptic landscape and a guy with a sniper/shotgun/assault rifle hybrid thing, yeah.

bump... :3

rawr :3

experimenting with drawing different things...

well janitor is the best scrubs character.
