Sharessa Posted February 23, 2002 Cool. His feet are a bit stumpy, but I've never been that good at feet anyway, so I shouldn't be complaining... 0 Share this post Link to post
nxn Posted February 23, 2002 should get a 9 in my opinion, only because of little things like the head bing slightly too small and stuff like that. still, those are minot mistakes, I like it a lot. 0 Share this post Link to post
dsm Posted February 23, 2002 The head is too small??? /Me looks at drawing again Actually, I was worried that the head might be too big. 0 Share this post Link to post
nxn Posted February 23, 2002 my art teacher said the head should be able to fit in the body about 6 times, wait... shit, nm, it's this damn resolution, makes things look distorted. 0 Share this post Link to post
pritch Posted February 23, 2002 Well I can't draw for shit, as you know dsm I write, that's my art, but I think this is awesome. That look on his face, it reminds me so much of Doomguy. This should be pic of the day... Have you ever thought about combining your artwork and your stories into a kind of complete experience, or maybe doing some (less detailed) illustrations for some of the other fan fiction contributions? If Ling enabled images in that forum, it could be, well, fantastic... 0 Share this post Link to post
fraggle Posted February 24, 2002 Cool stuff, but make sure you dont get kicked out of school :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Crendowing Posted February 24, 2002 Awesome...and like Pritch, a kindergartener draws better than I. If it only wasn't at such a high resolution, I might like it better. 0 Share this post Link to post
Dark-tenshi Posted February 24, 2002 cool..,hope too see more artwork from j00! 0 Share this post Link to post
fodders Posted February 24, 2002 Nice, I cannot draw, which is a disappointment, because my teacher said I was autistic :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Liam Posted February 24, 2002 I dunno how to judge that relative to my own ability, considering I only draw cartoons :p Looks nice, though. I approve. 0 Share this post Link to post

If Ling enabled images in that forum, it could be, well, fantastic... Hmm, not a bad idea, except that I really don't draw that often. This drawing took me months to do, because I only worked on it on a rare occasion when I felt like it (if I made drawings every day, I would be so much better, because of the experience one gets from drawing). Btw, why should drawings for the fanfiction be less detailed?Cool stuff, but make sure you dont get kicked out of school :P Heheh, no such problem. I did lots such drawings at school when I was younger and all I got was congratulations from people around me - my school wasn't too retarded :-) And now I keep my drawings locked away in a drawer. Never show them to anyone who isn't interested. I would gladly submit more drawings (when I've done some more), but I'm afraid that it would be diffcult, seeing as I don't own a scanner (yet) - I was lucky to get this drawing scanned in the first place. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lord FlatHead Posted February 24, 2002 dsm, that's one good-looking drawing. I don't think the head is too small; I think it's just that the body looks to big because of all the armor. Great stuff. My drawing on paper is hit and miss, but I've been having fun lately screwing with Photoshop and good ol' MS Paint. This sad Mario for example. Oh, and here's a little concept art for a fighting game me and some other guys were thinking about doing. 0 Share this post Link to post
Zaldron Posted February 24, 2002 MWHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAhahahahHAHAHah Flathead's fighting game concept, I mean. ;) Very nice drawing, dsm. And no, the head's right, it's just that the armor's bulky in a comics-style (something I do like btw). 0 Share this post Link to post
dsm Posted February 24, 2002 As most of you can see, I made the armour after the armour that the marine wears in the Macworld video, only I made it a *tad* more bulky and used my imagination a bit to add a few features. Flathead: Your fighting game concept rocks, lol. I hope you win the tournament :-) 0 Share this post Link to post
sleepy_boy Posted February 24, 2002 nice pic, but his hair is too light. 0 Share this post Link to post

mmnpsrsoskl Posted February 24, 2002 Damm dsm, nice picture! Sweet piece of work. And Flathead, Mario looks slightly drunk in your picture...heh heh heh...now that would be a weird arse game...Mario Gets Drunk! And I thought you were holding a can of Dr. Pope...until I looked closer...damm tiredness, makes you see things... 0 Share this post Link to post
pritch Posted February 24, 2002 Mmm, is Dr. Pope the Australian version of Dr. Pepper? 0 Share this post Link to post
Zaldron Posted February 24, 2002 I see you used Q3:TA's chaingun as reference. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted February 24, 2002 Heh. I have a friend who is obsessed with Dr. Pepper. His refrigerater is always full of it...literaly. And if he doesn't get his daily quota, he goes crazy. And if you mock Dr. Pepper in any way, he'll kill you. Heh...reminds me of when I was a cream soda addict. 0 Share this post Link to post
Zaldron Posted February 24, 2002 Heh. I have a friend who is obsessed with Dr. Pepper. Sounds like Flathead actually. Apparently he always has a can of that next to him when he logs on AIM. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lord FlatHead Posted February 24, 2002 What on earth are you talking about ? Oh. 0 Share this post Link to post
dsm Posted February 24, 2002 I see you used Q3:TA's chaingun as reference. Uhh no, I used the original Doom chaingun as a reference, but added lot and lots of additional details. Hell, I don't even KNOW how excactly the Q3A:TA chaingun looks like except that it's basically another motorbike-sized weapon. 0 Share this post Link to post
Zaldron Posted February 24, 2002 Actually it's as big as in your drawing. And the back side is exactly the same. 0 Share this post Link to post
dsm Posted February 24, 2002 Hmm, I remember seing screenshots of characters in TA holding the chaingun - it looked like it was as big as the rocket launcher. The fact that the chaingun in my drawing looks more like TA's chaingun than the actual Doom chaingun must be some sort of wicked coincidence :-( 0 Share this post Link to post
Zaldron Posted February 24, 2002 Hey, I like it more anyway. Most of Doom's art is too retro to stand a chance today. 0 Share this post Link to post
