i was at Big Bear (cold place in the mountains) for 4 days with nothing on tv but a marathon of the dog whisperer...

my pet rehabilitates hamsters and saves food for winter, he is... The Hamster Whisperer.

20% done

There Will Be Blood, i cant remember if i saw it this year or not but it is by far the best movie ive seen.

this stuff is pretty funny but i have a bad feeling about this thread, i think its going to be locked. :(

i dont know, he makes a very good point...

either counter strike or Halo: Combat Evolved (i love that game so much <3) started the whole teabag thing.

GTA4 (Grand Theft Auto 4) - Best physics of all rockstar games
GOW2 (Gears of War 2) - insane gore!
MGS4 (Metal Gear Solid 4) - great graphics and storyline
LBP (Little Big Planet) - just so much fun!
R2 (Resistance 2) - insane 30v30 gameplay
COD5 (Call of Duty 5) - ZOMBIES!!
SR2 (Saints Row 2) - so much to do!
F3 (Fallout 3) - epic storyline
ME (Mirror's Edge) - B-e-a-utiful gameplay
FC2 (FarCry2) - sweet healing abilities and map creator, what more could you want?

this is a problem that many seem to be having with the old 40gb models, it happened to me too. all i did was go back to the store and i got a new 80gb for free, as far as i know the 80gb does not have problems with its laser, but it does overheat unlike the 40.

does anyone else think that the drawing contains too much forehead and not enough hair up front?

same here mate, my old 360 broke on me and Microsoft did nothing to help, thats why i trashed the shit and switched to a much more reliable PS3, however i do wish i could play Halo and GOW2.

so it really comes down to a question of patience, are you willing to put up with all the 360 bullshit for great games? many are.

this is a good idea and so is anatomy practice, sourced images are nice.

according to this article, the Wii has won 2008, Microsoft came in second, and the PS3 cant catch a break :(

who are you rooting for next year?

i think Sony can make a comeback.

i just think everyone is stupid and dont care about what they say.
ironically, im always the life of the party though lol i guess im good at faking it.

i find hanging out with people stressful, no jokes there.

so by your logic its right because you have a book?

look man i can take a book and follow steps too but that doesnt necessarily mean that the steps i took were executed correctly by me.

i wouldnt exactly call this a very good example or a good enough reason to post it.

geez this place is really dead these days...

i like this one, lots of in-your-face color.

yea i think i would actually be good at this one, ill get back to you.

nice array of color you got there! im digging this.

also i wasnt aware of the fact that there are oil sharpies, i think i should get some myself.

Oil is so much fun. since it's still a work in progress, I'd like to tell ya it would be a good idea to add more linework in the hair on the upper right, It looks really flat right now and that would add a lot of texture.

oh no you misunderstood me lol, i guess its my fault because my mind keeps jumping around XD

this is actually a very old acrylic painting which i posted for comparison with my new oil work in progress, which i will be posting in the later weeks to come.

movements of the hand are a waste without the knowledge that said movements require.

and that is what i would recommend. :P

i would vote for you, but its just that... well... your not important enough around here... no offense but i haven't exactly seen you around here, ever.

The emphasis on the facial detail as opposed to surroundings and hair really portrays deep emotion, and yet the simplicity of the piece makes it easily palatable without feeling too busy.

well thats exactly what De Vinci was going for i suppose and i guess i did a nice job of capturing it even though this is an old failed project.

thank you :D

like what exactly? however, thank you in advance.

wow i just found this in a stack of old paintings while i was inking a sketch.
this is something i painted for a very long time during my first month in my class with the aid of my teacher.

i remember that i got frustrated at one point, declared the project a failure, and started drawing something else lol.

now the reason for me bringing this old thing up is because i have recently started working with oil paints and thought that this would be a good example of how good i use to be and my new project would be a good example of the progress i have made (if any...)

the project is still a work in progress but i should be done with it by the end of the holidays.

anyway feel free to point out my mistakes.

well what type of comedy is in style now?

all of you guys say this isnt funny and show off your amazing counting skills, but you fail to mention what type of comedy you enjoy, how is he suppose to know what to include in his comics if the people keep him in the dark?
