    Well, I learned from last time. I was READY.

    Anyway, here's the picture. I decided to do a human portrait, and thought, what would be better than to do someone from EoFF? So, while looking through the album, I settled on this picture of Loony BoB. Hopefully, if he sees it, he doesn't put a bounty on my head.

    I don't like the left eye (right, if you're looking at it). I tried it about ten times, then just settled for what you see, as none were looking right to me.

    Done with a simple pencil and paper, nothing fancy. And remember, vote on the quality of the artwork, not because it's of BoB. I just choose the picture because I thought it'd be a good test to try and draw.

    The technical aciehvement of Rocket Edge is excellent, attention to meticulous detail such a light reflection, lightting, perspective, surface are all combined to create a realistic artwork. I have to say the subject matter doesn't induce much cognitive though, I'm inclined to say it's one of those things you look at and saw "oooo shiney."

    *angel tears* work is completely on the other side of the spectrum, it's technical achievement isn't grandeur, in fact it's very simple and has that long tradition of Japaneism that was long associated with such early printmakers as Hokusai. The subject matter itself isn't very original, the appearance is of course, the character is unique, well thought out the composition is excellent the colour is minimal but effective... but as I was saying, its not original in that it's pretty much just a character drawing that make up probably 90% of the online work.

    I'm undecided at this point, I'll have to wait for the remaining artists.

    Boldly go.

    This is my submission.
    It's a Final Fantasy VI fanart. With this one, I experimented with a new "hard shadows/soft shadows" tecnique I found on Jennifer Pfeiffer's site.
    Even if you don't vote for me, please leave comments and suggestions.

    Uh yeah, currently a clinical lack of work lying aroudn for the scannage. So...here is a page from my current college unit on Graphic Novels.
    Ignore all pretence at putting text in, thats only there to tick boxes of criteria, as it were...I wish I could show you a bigger image, but I can't at the moment.
    I drew this in inks and added all the colour on Painter Classic. The black and white was done by hand. Text on photoshop. All the panels were composed on Photoshop CS too.

    Yay for delusional girls being chased by madmen who turn out to be perfectly sane, but not in this panel. Oh no!

    The use of line is crisp and orderly, you're a good draftsman. Check out print making, its an interesting manual approach to your style. Your coloring is especially impressive, but mainly because I suck at computer colouring. I think your doing amazing and to just continue experimenting. Again, the subject matter, character art, I understand this kind of portraiture is fun but I would like to say that you may find more self satisfaction in pictures that are of a more daring content.

    I like your organization, platform and style. You work hard and it shows. I don't know if you do or not, but it seems like you try to draw a person just from our head, which is freaking awesome... but I personally find it a little less labourious to use catalogs as pose dictionaries. Even the old masters painted straight from life.

    Boldly go.

    Oh, God, Rase. xD *dies* I'm flattered.

    I can't believe how hard it is to pick between the pictures. They're all so different in their style... it's quite the selection.

    Thanks, yes I was drawing straight from the noggin. At the time of drawing I didn't have the resources to look at other poses and stuff. I realise it would of been of great value, especially in the third panel, but as I had nothing to look at I figured I might as well try my best with what I had. Or something. Thanks.

    Okay, it looks like i'm the last to post, i think.
    So, here it is.
    I call this sketch; The Invasion.
    It's all hand drawn and shaded using a single 6b pencil. i guess monotone is just my style...
    it was supposed to be done in a slight cartoon style with slightly scruffy shading to make it look rough and quick..as if it was done on a battle field.

    p.s. sorry if the pic is a bit blurry, i had to take it with a digicam.

    By the way, i have ended this round sooner than scheduled because all of us have posted art before the deadline. Voting is now open:
