hey, I'm not doing your drawing thing cuz I've hit a block, I can't even draw bullshit. I did come accross a nfty little site that you may enjoy. It has some solid chuckles, and it's comic book related. http://home.earthlink.net/~fanboyprime/
Oh come on dude, you've got to be able to draw SOMETHING. You're an art major now, you can't burn out already! Seriously though, it's cool. Drawing with a mouse is hard as fuck anyway, so I don't blame you. If you DO do something someday, let me see it anyway.
That site is pretty funny, but how the fuck did you find it? It looks like some dude's homepage.
Lastly, here's one of your drawings I fucked around with. I went WAAAAAY overboard with the highlights and shading, so I'm sorry if it looks like complete ass now:
that looks great, I'm glad you cleaned it up a bit too. Your shading has improved tenfold, is that the result of your new class, practice, or illustrator? The front page as it is, is fine. Uf you want to dress things up, we just need some more links, maybe bio pages or something, a mission statement. All of these things would need artwork of somekind inculded. The Bios could have a basic head shot of each person and maybe an action picture as well, Ala a GI Joe character card. We just need to get people to think up what kind of character they would like representing them. Then we can draw them or each person could draw their own. This way we can get people to start working on something other than the front page.
Nah, I didn't improve, but thanks. My class purely deals with the technical side of using Photoshop and Illustrator, it has nothing to do with any art theory. I never shade with pencil, because it's too hard to get the tones I want, and I have a hard enough time just keeping a smooth line in Photoshop since I use a mouse, so this is just what I always could do, but didn't. Anyone who studies light and shadow (not me, that's for sure) would probably say it's a contradictory mess. Why am I rambling on about shading
( ... )
I was wondering about that message. I still haven't gotten my FFXI shit done, any help would be appreciated. My inability to contact you by phone baffles me sometimes....but as long as you aren't forgeting your estranged friends, no worries.
I don't have access to any great technology here. My old Photoshop 5.0 is it. I can put pencil and pen to paper to make designs, but if you want it uniform at all, your would have to give it the Illustrator/dreamweaver treatment. I don't know if you would have the time for that while you are working on the front page shit. I'll put an operation wolf type picture together for myself, then I'll do a write up of fable as an article, how does that sound? Screw it, I'll do a picture of myself as a fable character and then the review/writeup. I've almost beaten it 3 times now. It's a bit like combining the elements of Penny Arcade into one article. I'm on it....Finally the Block is over!!!!
My inaccessability on the phone is very simple to explain. No one really calls me with any regularity, except for Suzy and work. Suzy knows my schedule so she knows when I can be reached, my job knows my class/work hours so they know when to find me as well. Since I don't get too many unexpected phone calls, I tend to leave my phone at home most days rather than risk it ringing in class. So basically, I never answer the phone unless it's a weekend evening, or really late at night on a weeknight
