[Josef K.]

My No1Buddy of the week :D ! Love to see ya posting again
your progress is incredible and youre also becoming better and better in doing enviormental-stuff
hehe im sure you'll soon be able to create some very dynamic illustrations!
BIBA roxx! :cheerleader:

[cartoonfox]

hey man, its been a long time ^-^

cool stuff you have here, i like the enviroment sketches, and those studies rock.
i see you've moved away from the marko style ^-^ but where are your cool imagination drawings i loved so much. would be cool to see which direction your style as gone.

its awesome to see you posting again, i hope you keep it up, i'll be watching.


are you going to the prague workshop? im about 99% there, i just gota find the money really.
hope to see you there, we need to hang out again ^-^





peace man :7up:

[Sean Vaul]

I really like your figure work and the perspective in your buildings.

[black_lotus]

hello

@josef
hehe i hate you, you look like a grapefruit!!


@cartooonfox
hehe thanks buddy, the cool imagination drawings...ehm, you know i´m workin on that but i really made no progress in that direction :\
bytheway, i really hope to get to prague, would be awsome if we´d have a reunion wuahahahaha


@sean
hehe thx but my pics lack in dynamic and innovative or emotional content :(



so here´s a gay pic. this guy is so stereotypish and neither authentic nor innovative, i hate myself :D

:\

[Karim M.]

what wer is stereotypsih? did i hör someding?
^^ nah just look at the shit on tele.... stay with ur stereos and make big money XD
ok ok jokin again... i dig your environments.... nice

[Dan.v.D.]

i prefer stereotypes over wannabe creative stuff like 9 out of ten times.
if we take games as example i prefer fighting 20 cool looking instances of your cliché orks to fighting flying suitcases and kuckucksuhren like i remeber i even did in some game anyday.

on a different note: don´t dissapear and slack for like a year or something and then come back bitching about lack of progress haha ;)

gotta keep it up man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[black_lotus]

wooosh


@karim
yeah whatever :thinking:


@dan
hehe, hey buddy good to see ya
you know, i´d prefer playing a game designed innovative and authentic. i guess many of todays designers just wanna to create something that looks cool. goes well for pictures, but in a game or movie??? naaah :teeth:
anyways i´m still a bitch in drawing, painting, designing or beeing creative so dont mind me if i´m bitchin around mwahahahaa :P

hehe next time i´ll put the craziest thought into a picture that i can get out of my brain. in the past that turned out to be a beaver ...everytime :dead:


so here´s one where... i just tryed...somethin...yeah...ummm help me gettin better with painting :^^:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v666/bushido_grapefruit/atroxKopie.jpg

guess the eye brows dont really fit in... but actually i dont know anything ´bout painting :x

teach me something :^^:



PS: yeah i cant draw ears, nevermind tho :tihi:

[black_lotus]

[1-thought]

[black_lotus]

wooosh



i really hate lower arms :uzi: :muscle:

[Craig Houghton]

I like the studies. I think you should keep at em with a vengeance.

Also, I really liked that dude with the cross on his head. You called him stereotyped etc, but with art, it's really all about whether or not you can pull it off, and that was looking good to me.

[OLSEN]

Hey Lotus,

long time since I saw any of your stuff. Good stuff as always. Would be cool if you could make it to Prague, I belive we need to drink some more Jaegermeister together. :)

[black_lotus]

wooosh

olsen, haha oh my god it is great seeing all of you back again hehe

hopefully we can drink till we die in prague ;)


hm some speed paintings hehe, not that i´d be able to paint hehe

[black_lotus]

wooosh

here´s another one, please help meee!!! :^^;:

[Molly]

Sweetheart - where have you been?
and whats this ' I havent made any progress' shit?

whoa - here is plenty progress, both from life and imagination. the first enviroment sketches are cool, composition, style - its quick but makes sense; you still have a teeny-weeny bit proportional issues, not major- BUT nothin you cant deal with....:)
The photoshop sketches are cool too,I dont think you should be worried about any 'lack' of progress on your behalf..

keep drawing, keep posting...

Mollyx

[black_lotus]

woooosh


wooaaaaah molly :D

glad to hear from you again. how´re ya doin????? bytheway, has anybody seen tom? it seems like he disappeared :x
anyways hehe thanks for your kind words, but i´m the bitch who compares himself only with the masters which can be frustrating wuahahahah :P


here´re some speed paintings

this one´s inspired by mister milligan

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v666/bushido_grapefruit/blacknight.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v666/bushido_grapefruit/ziindjacolourKopie2.jpg

[Karim M.]

oi buddy,
hey that milligan one looks like the stuff we're doin in art classes right now >:D
but i like the way youre going... like experimenting with light. keep it on! I'm out to buy myself a graphic tablet now ^^

[Farin]

"i didn´t make that much progress" ... uuhh .. fishing for compliments?! :teeth:

... okay .. you deserve it ;) ... some really great stuff ... I like the enviroments, the one inspired by milligan and the studies .. mh... I should draw more .. much more

How r you? everything fine?
congrats to your new job (josef told me)
