OMG! I was trying to come up with an idea for a drawing, and I tried to guess what the theme of the next contest would be, so I drew a female Doom marine. Heh.

BTW, congrats on winning the last one, Silv. It was well deserved. :)

I've already started my new Doomguy drawing, though I don't think I have much of a chance in this contest since I can only do pencil art.

It's well known that fully coloured drawings are much superior to plain greyscale drawings like the ones I do, no matter how superior in detail the pencil drawing might be, because colours always add a whole new dimension.

But at least I get to see how well I can do while under time pressure, plus, I've got an opportunity to practice capturing the looks of the new Doomguy (which I can already say is DAMN hard) - I'm a man with ambitions in this area; been trying to capture the looks of the Doomguy since 1994 and I've still got a long way to go.

I expect either Silverwyvern or Agnes to win this one unless a third person pops out of the blue and present us with something almost "Adrien-Carmack-level-quality" :-P

Agnes, show us your female marine :-)

One female doom marine (and a retarded invincibility sphere).

I can't possibly beat that. Do you use OpenCanvas to color it ?
I'm still gonna try to give it a shot but I hate coloring with a mouse, so winning is totally out of reach.

Hmmm... All my old doom fanart I used to post was donw with a mouse..
You don't have to color it :)
Sometimes a truly powerful line drawing is better then all the color in the world.

I'm *nearly* in love with her too - you definitely accomplished what I couldn't when I tried to do a female marine. The only beef I have with her is that she kinda makes me think of Arlene Sanders from a bunch of toilet paper-made novels. Probably because she has red hair and something like a high-and-tight haircut.

If you had given her a close-shave, THEN I think I'd be in love with her :-)

The space marines in Doom are whimpy. Take a look at deez:

http://www.freewebs.com/danarchy/Stuff/WHCr3w.jpg

The badly-painted bloke in the front with the chainsword is a standard Imperial Marine. The more havily-amrmored guy to the right is a marine wearing Terminator armour (as opposed to regular power armour), and the hulking machine behind them is an Imperial Dreadnaught, the coolest damn piece of machinery in the entire Empire besides maybe a techmarine's servo arm. Not that it really had anything to do with this thread, but I had to show off some kind of 'art' I did myself eventualy.

And in case you care, heres how its supposed to be done:
Space Marines
Terminators
Dreadnaught
And the rest...

The same thing happened to me... then I tried copying and pasting it and it worked. Freewebs.com doesn't seem to like image linking.

This is cool but hardly on topic for this thread.

Please make a new thread if you guys wanna compare paintjobs or whatever.

Yeah I know, but something in this thread inspired me to do that. I forgot what. If I knew what it was, I would have said...

Geh...I'm sorry.
