Try search by date and file type. Check through every file created / modified in the time period you last worked on it. And then sort by file type looking through your .psd files. Maybe you named it something else accidentally.

I hate it when that happens. I tend to start a new project, then "save as" and see what folder it is in automatically, that might be where you saved your last project.

I literally just asked for a "generic anime girl" in my sig over at the Sig Request thread. I've no idea what anime that is, but it sounds pretty lulzly.

Also 4k posts I'm such a statwhore CONTINUEING

It's school holidays for me, now. I should really be drawing right now instead of blasting necromorphs.

Response to Art Forum Lounge 2010-11-27 08:14:08


If it would have another name and is in a place i usualy dont look is where my sis saves her drawings...
but I am not allowed to look, so I will have to ask her to look for it.

It looks like it, mostly because it says sex in it so i would guess it is panty, haha x D

That looks very decent; almost appears to be some combination between vector and pixel. Too bad its only japanese...

i kinda like the idea of having the 3d model as a base to work from... it makes sure you get your proportions right as well as not making it to monged up... *like i tend to do*... fantastic find... however it does seem a tad complexed for people like myself (aka casual artists) and will most likely be for them peoples who work in the bussiness or do it a hell of alot... nice find kosuk :D

went to borders.....got zomnibus which is the complete zombies vs robots plus a whole other comic before that. and it was only five more dollars and the same quality. i guess you must be retarted to get the other one =p.
but yeah ashley wood rocks the fuck out of this style. its like 30 days of night almost.
anyways yeah its fucking cool

Ashley Wood is epic.

I'm pretty sure she was the one who did the cutscene art in Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops and PeaceWalker. I liked her work on both of those games. It has a nice touch to it that I rarely see in other artists.

thanks Lego!
yeh the 3D looks awesome but i am more interested in how much you can fix the lines!
I understand what you mean by the complex thing, but its more like a thing that exist if you need it.
better to have it, then not.

It has been raining snow for five days straight. Literally, up to today I didn't notice any pauses in snowfall (even though it got reduced to a drizzle at times). Now it stopped raining fora few hours only to continue at full strenght.

I'm currently somewhere between "FUCK YEAH!" and "Oh my god, all that plowing I have to do!"

So I have somewhat of a serious question..
I've improved over the past year somewhat but not as much as other people.
I know I shouldn't compare myself but I just feel like I'm moving slowly.
Is it a matter of just practicing more and trying different things? I'm tired of being mediocre.
What does one do in this situation?

Draw.

no, but really, I've been trough that, it's awful to feel you're not improving even after spending a lot of work and time into drawing.
Best tip I can give you is draw much, but draw for fun. I find it I improve the most when I don't worry about improving.

The amount of practice definitely plays a big part. Your art thread is more than 2 years old and is only 7 pages long/big/whatever... Fifty's is just over a year old yet is more than double the size of yours. What you practice also help. You can't just keep practicing the same thing, you have to try new things to improve.

I know I should start diversifying, I'm just stubborn cause when I try new things and they don't look like I want, i just get pissed off and hate my art, even though that doesn't make sense.

You don't have to do something completely different and new, just small changes should be good. Look at other artists work and try and find things about their art that you like and try and incorporate them into your art. If you don't seek inspiration/references/influences/whatev er then you'll just be guessing trying random things and I'm guessing you'll just be more frustrated/not like what turns out as often and it will then end up taking longer to improve.

Response to Art Forum Lounge 2010-11-28 13:45:35


I think what helped me improve as much as I have done (this is the current title-holder of most-improved artist speaking) isnt as much the amount of practice (cause I cant say im a terribly productive artist) but the fact that I have always tried to do different things. Even, or perhaps especially things that seemed beyond my grasp. All too often you will find that you didnt manage to acheive what you were intending, but thats okay, because you learned a lot in the process. Another thing I have always done is treat every drawing as a serious piece of art. Give it your full effort, dont just label it "practice" and make it easy on yourself.
Hope it helps.
