So what time are you planning to meet at the Tate cafe? Not sure I can make it, and not sure if I can handle trains twice in three days..But just in case I can get off my arse again....

edit: I was blind, just found it on the last page. I'll make sure I call/msg someone if I am coming..

Yes, I behaved myself and everyone got eggs

As well as the cute young ladies (hehe) I think the big story for everyone there was just exactly how talented a young bastich can be - Tie's book is amazing, you have to look at it today. Tie, have you got that 'fashion kills' pic online anywhere? I wanna show it to somebody.

And why is it we're not meeting till 3? My hangover isn't that bad, Molly's not drinking, and I'm raring to go!! Anyone else wanna meet earlier?

cartoonfox · #**3243** February 18th, 2006, 05:20 AM

dirty_c: thanks

i don't think i'm particularly interesting but i'll keep at it

i havent uploaded pages from my sketchbook in a while. will scan later tonight after the meet

sketchling · #**3247** February 18th, 2006, 06:40 AM

its usually the dodgy artists who DO think they are 'particularly interesting' so I wouldnt worry tie. Yer stuff is great!

I arbitrarily chose a later time cause we already had a long meet... and cause I was tired but im rearing to go too, so ill come meet ya soon as i get my life together and breakfast.

ZAChos · #**3248** February 18th, 2006, 12:52 PM

Have a nice meet tonight guys.

Here's the stuff I did, they didn't scan too good: I'm very light with my pencils.

Thought I'd post em here, because theey aren't good enough to start a sketchbook thread for.

Zac

Midnight · #**3249** February 18th, 2006, 01:05 PM

ZAChos - ... yeah, 'cause as everyone knows, you only start a sketchbook with pro quality work...

Chill, and put 'em up bigger in an SB (I can't actually see them clearly enough right now, although I remember the first)! Never hurts to get another opinion.

Eriboss - you'll be at the next Bristol meet? Your pics are so crazy, I want to see how you make 'em!

Mid.

ZAChos · #**3250** February 18th, 2006, 01:16 PM

I have no idea why they shrank like that. I hates you internets!!!

Sure, I'll start a sketchbook, once I've got a slightly bigger haul for the first post.

Lol, YES, I was given the Egg demo. ^_^ Twas really helpful too - thanks, Christian! You're a fab tutor~ Er, thanks for the surprise hug/kiss, too, lol.

Fran: Mind if I post some of the photos we took pre/post meet?

Kim: It was wonderful meeting you - thank you so much for the tips and letting me hover over your shoulder as you painted.

Chee: Was awesome meeting you - cheers for hanging out with us on the Friday too. Have you tested out the inks yet?

Adam (asguardian?): You're funny! xD At random moments I have flashbacks on stuff you guys said (mainly in Pizza Hut) which makes me burst out laughing. Must be weird for people passing by...

Awesome SB too - it inspired me to work on sillhouettes and I think it influenced one of my sketches (will post it when my scanner stops being an arse).

Ben: Amazing SB!! You've conveyed feeling into your artwork really well. I hope to see more sometime.

Sam: It was a pleasure to meet you - your explanation on the structure of the face was helpful and I only wish I whipped out my camera in time to snap a pic of you in that arty t'ai chi stance! xD

Zac: Myooo~~ It was great to meet you after knowing each other for so long(ish?). Sorry I couldn't give you a proper hug; was kinda involved with Christian's tutorial. ^_^;;> Will do next time~

Michael: It was refreshing to meet a fellow perfectionist on the path to loosening up! Haha. Hope to see more - will add you to MSN too.

Sean: I still can't believe you're only 15! >.< Damnnit, lol. But really, fab SB - I look forward to seeing more~

Aaaaand my mum's calling me for dinner. Sorry to the people I've missed out/didn't get to talk to much. Here's hoping my scanner decides to stop being a diva by the time I get back. >_<;

Take care, all, a really inspirational and motivational meet!

Dirty C · #**3252** February 18th, 2006, 01:50 PM

Hey! Now you're making it sound like I *didn't* behave! Well, go view the prague photo thread for examples of past behaviour haha - and I passed on the message today, we were all zoned out in YET ANOTHER NANDO'S.

Today was awesome. We met at the Tate and settled, eventually, on sitting on the fifth floor couches facing the river through the huge windows. Sitting there drawing, it was a while before we realised we'd drawn quite a crowd. I don't know how big, I was busily trying not to suck in front of them all hahaha - Kim of course was busily whoring ArtRage to anyone who walked by. At any rate, it was excellent, but I had to keep turning the music up every time I realised people were talking about me. Honest, I can't deal with that very well - think I need to do it more to get used to it.

Next time I think I'll bring my laptop as well, Kim. Should be a laugh

cartoonfox · #**3253** February 18th, 2006, 02:28 PM

yeah was cool. although it was hard to concentrate with all the people behind us. christian you were showing me up with your awesome sketches!

we gota do it more often, i had fun. stomach's still suffering from that double chicken HOT burger though!!! : ]

peace

lefran · #**3254** February 18th, 2006, 03:27 PM

hey just posting to say i had an awesome time and i learnt a lot especially from Zac and Christian!!
ill post some pics and sketches when i can find my connecting cable....

we have to do it again!!

blacky · #**3255** February 18th, 2006, 03:35 PM

Hello y'all English people.
I've never been to England before, but now I am going to spend 4 days in London in mid April. I guess that 4 days aren't enough to view the city but still I wanted to spare some time on eventualy hanging out with any of you guys. You know, in case you'd be up for a scetching session in the tubes or while barhoping or at lifedrawing or whatever....I wouldn't want miss that.
I might not be the coolest, most social or most talented guy out there and we probably have only our faible for CA in common....but....uhm, I though I could give it a try.

Crystalline · #**3256** February 18th, 2006, 03:49 PM

Blacky - while you are in london, there is a michelangelo exhibition at the british museum. It would be worth trying to get in if you are interested.

I had a long and eventful day in london, couldn't meet you lot at the tate because me and tony got stuck in covent gardens. Im well dissapointed and my feet kill cos I wore heels. But it was worth it, went to a fantastic book signing at the 'Forbidden Planet' on Tottenham Court Road. Neal Asher is such a decent bloke.
There are some art books there too, I got another star wars one. They have a huge book with all the star wars constumes in, but I couldn't afford it :X lol. Bristol has a forbidden planet as well, so shall be popping over there at some point.
Anyways, had a fantastic time even if I did little sketching, London would be officailly perfect if they sorted the underground out.

Quicksilver · #**3257** February 18th, 2006, 03:51 PM

Maybe it's just me being dumb, but I can't find people's email addys via their profile. o_O So here's mine if you have MSN:

silverraindrop@hotmail.com

cartoonfox · #**3258** February 18th, 2006, 04:13 PM

ah so you're crystalline! welcome : ]

i didn't even know you were gonna try and meet us today, you should have, it was fun! damn underground. the whole east side of the circle line seemed to be down!
most of the time its decent though, honest!! : ]
so were do you reside in the UK? i'm hoping there will be another meet soon, even if it's just a couple folks! it was really fun drawing in tate modern sofas today! christian when ever you're free just give me a call and i'll try and come down.

anyway, nice to "meet" you crysalline, and yay for being a nintendo fan!! : ]

peace

Eri

Crystalline · #**3262** February 18th, 2006, 06:34 PM

I was just finishing off a bottle of Baileys, what I didn't think about before I started this task was that it gets stronger as you go down the bottle. So I am unintentioanlly tipsy.

Anyway, thank you catoonfox

. I got stuck in totenham court road at about 6pm :X (I kept going back there - mistake!) it took me over an hour to get to waterloo, lol. I smile about it now, but i wasn't so happy then, haha. Oh, I am in plymouth, wooooooo - but I move around a lot, I have a been at a friends this week, we are close to london.
I got another art book as well - ''Quantum Dreams - by Stephan Martiniere'' this is one seriously awsome art book. Its small, but the guy is a genious.
Yeah; let me know when there's bristol meet and I'll see what I can do
