if your wondering what hes staring at so intensely,,,,, hes just noticed a strange circular container in the back pocket of the soldier standing in front of him, and hes contemplating wether its Skoal or Bubbletape..... . . . .
this guys posture was so jacked that i had to let him go.

OMFG! That is fantastic! Is that a 3D rendering? It sure looks like it...did you use Painter or PS for that?

Hey, thanks Mcotie.

yah,, i am probably a bit slower than most,, but thats mainly due to my short attention span,, and im a bit hyper active so i have to get up and run around about every 10 minutes.

but, the sketches are pretty quick doodles. didnt take too much time. i make up for a lot of hatching and what not with the rubbing stump.. i just push the lead around. it really speeds things up for me.

the painting did take a LONG time though. im still learning how to paint correctly, so my approach is very primitive and time consuming.

Hah! i just noticed that your in Lewisville. i just recently moved out of my house in Carrolton. it was pretty close to lake lewisville. i went out there to swim a few times and almost had my head claimed by a waverunner. its kindof a nasty lake too.

:chug:

wow, thats awesome stuff man. you said you have a webpage? argh! whats the url? i wanna check out more of your stuff! :D

[cyclonaut]

OOOOHH!

I really like the abandoned knight scoping out the six feet of bubbletape. Good stuff bro. I hadn't seen that one.

You are the pencil shading KING!

How come to don't list your webpage?

[Lono]

Beeen!

im glad your posting here now! weeee..

a lot of the stuff on my webpage is still under NDA so i cant make it public. i only use it for getting the jobbies right now.

you should post some of your art. youve got some cool stuff on your web page.

start a thread in the finished section and introduce yourself n
flash a little art.

word.

[cyclonaut]

HEY!

I'd like to post some stuff.

I just can't find a free server that allows linking.
and I don't know enough about what I'm doing to put stuff on my site.

hopefully soon I'll work something out.

I saw your post about the foozball table. HA! You are crazy with the foozball! I'm going to a bachelor party tonight. I plan on getting borracho loco....actually, I'm the designated driver cause I don't have enough cash flow for booze, so I won't be drinking at all.

But everyone else...BORRACHO LOCO!!!
