This. Yes, this is awesome. Totally fav'd, haha. You might benefit from a little more rendering on it, but it is still pretty awesome how it is.

intelligencequotient In reply to dementedsped [2007-08-27 01:48:25 +0000 UTC]
I mean a little less texture on the subject itself to make it stand out from the background a bit.
Speaking of which, how DID you get that texture with watercolor and ink? it's awesome, haha.

Wow, I love this one. You commented me on my 'enslaved' deviation, and now I go up to ur gallery and see 'unplugged'. Loved it instantly, that's a fav.
I like the way you square-shaped things that ought to be (normally speakin) circular (the cuffs and collar). But then, reprenenting normality through art would be quite boring. And the texture adds a lot to the general ambiance of the drawing...
I gotta try watercolor sometime...
Cheers!

If I was drawing this well at the age of 14, I'd have taken over the WORLD by now...
Especially remarkable for its attention to edges and flairs, and this grime you've created with color along with the palette you've selected from strikes me as very sophisticated; this piece all by itself earns you a watch...

wow. thank you...so much. i saw you featured on the Today page, and your gallery is amazing. i remember i spent literally 20 minutes looking at a single pic, trying to see anything to improove on, nothing of which i could find. wow...umm...thanks so much....

I love the demented-ness of it... and how grungey the colors turned out. it almost reminds me of a fresco or something... Great technique.

I've never seen a style of art like yours before, it's dark, yet for some reason it's hard to look away from. I like the design on the eyes

wow, thank you!....well, i guess i've tried basically everything from realism to cartooning (not anime, i'll have you know), and i think this is my favorite. im just concerned that my stuff is starting to look the same.

Heh, boobies.
Once again you made me go "ARRG. HULK SMASH."
(translation: how the hell? Why can't I do that? What's she got the I don't?) Maybe I should get off the computer and do some actual arts instead of slowly poisoning myself.
That was fairly deep for me. I hate you. >

damn. i feel.....i dunno. but coming from you...
i aspire to draw like you. also, you can digitally do stuff. if you would just PRACTICE, or sit down and do it or something...
plus, you're forgetting that you have more pageviews and favorites than me. and kids tend to move towards you at school.
plus, you're really good at expressions. i love your style....
oh, and yes, you should go do some artses.

Zorrin In reply to dementedsped [2007-07-10 17:40:15 +0000 UTC]
So I'm more popular. So what? You have your own style. I can't own up to that. I mean, sure I have my own way of drawing eyes, mouths, etc. but you have your own color schemes, your own physics, your own landscapes. I mostly just pick and choose or avoid that situation completely. I'm still attempting to find what I should do, but you seem to already know what you're doing, and I'm jealous.

...so the same old polluted cityscapes or vast expanses of white? really...
i dunno...i dont think its really my style. i looked at the Rise Against album art, some from billy martin, and from whoever did the stuff from the used's in love and death album and said LOOK LIKE THAT. so.....yeah. i use primary colors and black and brown....not all that exciting. i dont consider it original in any way, shape, or form. yours is developed...evolved...and it has expression. mine is just dark, muddy, and wrinkly. i still dont know whay you're talking about.
and i can see in any minute someone posting "yes, we get it, you two love eachother, cut the modesty shit and make out already" under this. oh, hahaha....that would be good.

Zorrin In reply to dementedsped [2007-07-11 20:55:49 +0000 UTC]
It would. But that's not the half of it, now, is it?
Mine is hardly original. If you were to live inside my head you'd see how everything I draw is a conglomeration of everything I have at some point decided was 'cool'. Every 'new original picture' I have ever drawn was based on something else in a huge way. My art hinges on people not getting the reference. Or, on the few occasions I try something completly new I find that it's not at all anything I could stand to look at for more than a few seconds at a time. I play around with styles so much because of my strong desire to find something worthy of calling 'mine', but while I might like it on its own I can't even begin to imagine me doing something like it more than a couple times again over the course of my lifetime. You atleast have consitancy.

consistancy of what? if you look in my gallery, hell, my life (both of them), i go from attempted realism to cartooney shit to photography to linearts to stylized.....i am eveything but consistant! blah blah blah, I IMPLORE!....
