DSG 173: Mythology based: leviathan

[dsg bot]

Today's topic is: Mythology based: leviathan

[catterpillar]

hmm, it occurred to me after drawing it that a leviathan might be expected to be, er, aquatic. I'm not sure about the mythological context but this is my idea of a leviathan. pen, brush and ink..

Well, I guess I'd be pretty remiss to not post something in this DSG...

I spent half the day painting this, lost it all to a system crash, and then had to recoup something...so this is what turned out.

I think I prefer this new DSG rule. So many people can draw!

Great work guys!

[catterpillar]

[strych9ine]

Nice work all around... :chug:

MONOTYPIC:

Not to be an ass, but you might consider choosing more obscure references for your pieces. There are pretty strong feelings around here about copying others' artwork.

[remedial]

ouch

[monotypic]

=\
i WAS trying to draw the disney leviathan!
can't you tell?!?!
/me cries

sorry guys. i was exhausted when i went to bed and forgot to mention that in my post.

i would NEVER try and take credit for someone else's artwork.

[Synista]

I was told mine looks like some creature from Final Fantasy. :o And I have never played the game. =/

i recognized it immediately as him drawing the Atlantis Leviathan. I don't have a problem with it, it's not like he pasted in someone else's drawing.

I've done a lot of DSG involving other people's intellectual property.

-- although it does kinda look like you just copied the poster, now that i actually look at the link.

[cucaracha]

had fun to do this, no ref or sth.

cu

p.s.: is anyone else recognizing an artistic improvment of mine? :D

[nBT]

leviathan i like yours :D
uhm i like the graphic aproach :D

nBT

[monotypic]

leviathon hit it right on the head actually. i found that poster on google and used it as a refrence.

meh.. sorry guys.. i honestly ment to say that when i posted the image.. i was just really tired last night and forgot.

[leviathan]

Just to be sure, I want to say that I wasn't coming down on Monotypic, but I've seen users banned from this forum for similar infractions (although not in DSG). I'm definitely not one to start trouble.

Monotypic, hope there's no hard feelings.

And nBT, thanks!

Sorry this is so late. My email was down with the outtage yesterday and I couldn't register.

[monotypic]

leviathan: its all good. i was careless with my post. i would have said the same thing if i were you.:D

[skvv]

just out of curiosity, leviathan, how did you find out about that pic? lol.

[leviathan]

evisr8r:

I have two books of concept design and promotional art for Disney's Atlantis. Monotypic's sketch immediately stood out to me, so I Google searched for an image of it I could link.

...And my username being Leviathan, I'm fairly familiar with artwork associated with it.
