Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

Was mainly just a face study/characterization thing. I'm just trying to decide what to do for my next piece, heh.

I mentioned before I used to do pixel art as a hobby, well, I did up a quick 24x24 safe while watching Road House.

It was tails.

8 colors total, used Graphics Gale :)

P.S: Would still like feedback on the thing I posted on the previous page!

Just finished up detailing a speed painting I did in Neolight's thread.

Around 4 and half hours of work total.

A bank robber, tho I'm probably not finishing this particular one.

Thanks, but bro... I'm not sure I know what you mean, I don't have a deviant art account?

Some R.P McMurphy action for yall.

Question

Hey guys, I was just wondering from anyone who has actually been to art college...

I'm in the process of putting together my portfolio, and I have a lot of traditional paper/paintings and such, but I was wondering if they would mind some photoshop paintings? The application says digital files are allowed, I'm just wondering if it's a good idea.

Hopefully I am good enough heh...

No one puts baby in the corner.

And as for colleges, I'm still a junior in highschool but I've started thinking about colleges and I find it definitely just depends on what type of art college you are applying to; obviously if you're planning on taking courses involving digital art and design, it would be important to include that. But if you're going to a college that just offers traditional art, they generally aren't going to want to see something they're unfamiliar with (ew my art teacher XP).

Thanks, my friend said it looks like a LittleDaddy(Big Daddy from Bioshock) but I'm intent on calling it 'Physical Bot' or 'Cough Cough'

Yeah, the college specifically offers a degree in animation, and thats what I'd be going for, I just dont know how much digital work to balance out traditional.

Didn't have any anatomical references handy, also the net was broken for a bit, so here is an imperfect alien skull missing a bottom jaw. Believe it!

A bit of art from an upcoming game that will on Newgrounds soon, hopefully :)

Aaand one more. Last thing I'm showing before game, sorries :P

Just a little landscape.

I have a friend who is amazing at anime, which is not saying much, but because that was all he drew, he never got into the art program.

Not saying you draw anime, but just as a precaution.

Well, I agree and disagree.

I know enough not submit it, hell, I don't even draw it. But I still think it is legitimately hard to make, as you pointed out even though friend is amazing, it's not saying much.

Anime should still be a respected style, the problem is because of its popularity, its the most imitated. I dunno, I just don't think giving it the short stick is all that fair.

Anyways, thanks for the advice.

RIP BERNIE MAC

I want you to hit me...as hard as you can.

What?

Quick sketch of my dog

Progress shots of a background I'm working on. I hate you all.

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Ive been waiting for this moment, all my life, oh lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord

Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
Ive seen your face before my friend
But I dont know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off the grin, I know where youve been
Its all been a pack of lies

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
Ive been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord
And Ive been waiting for this moment all my life, oh lord, oh lord

Well I remember, I remember dont worry
How could I ever forget, its the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no you dont fool me
The hurt doesnt show; but the pain still grows
Its no stranger to you or me

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord...
