No. It's chan with the a sounding like "ah". (not "awe" like yawn). And Suichiro's given a good description of the usage of -chan. It's definitely a girly thing.

Add @Chosen Hate2 to the list.

Choke we could use you man, but not on a scrapper. Get a buffer of blaster or somethin.

Revised list:

@Slan
@F-D
@Infamous Zampf

@XCain
@Incisor
@XSniper

Very nice to see your process! I'm curious to see how you do bright highlights with the tinted paper.

Hey Buck! Nice to see ya around

Anyone know if Hellraisers fought? I couldn't make it last night, and Terpman is no longer playing CoX, so curious if someone else took up the helm.

!!!! Terp gone?

Yeah Hobo, we lucked out and got some new people so we have a team. Still could definitely use your help. I'll pm you our practice schedule. I guess i'm the one running it now.

So part of it is a drawing for those that post in this thread?

The picture will feature two characters. One will belong to the person who gets the 3k screenie, the other will be chosen by me from the people who post in this thread. Probably whatever I feel will complement the winner's character.

Hola,

Short notice but I'm about to hit 3k pageview on my Deviant page. So to celebrate I'll do a picture of some sort for the person who gets a screenie of 3k AND one other person who posts in this thread that I choose. The picture will be of both characters interacting in some way. GL!

Heya,

Here is the final version. I hope this picture goes to 11.

Heya,

Work in progess for DJ Woody's character Acoustic Delusions.

Happy BDay Turbo!

I'm still learning to focus on one thing at a time and not let my mind spaz from one thing to the next. Is there anything I can do to help me maintain a mental image long enough to get it down on paper? Should I also try developing my skills outside of this practice so that I at least have some foundation skills to work with while trying to get my mental image down on paper/canvas?

I often get an idea for a picture and can see it complete and rendered in my head. Then it fades away as I start to draw. I'm at a point in my development where I can still move forward, but after the initial idea the execution becomes a real chore and I usually despise the picture by the time I'm done with it.

I would suggest you do a lot of copying, perhaps even tracing pictures, so that you can develop coordination in your hand without being burdened by the question of what to draw. This would be a good time to develop a sense of anatomy and proportion as well.

Then when you do something from your head, be open to your subconscious impulses. If your thoughts move on to other images, let them. Sit down and draw on a piece of paper. Just doodle whatever comes into your head. It doesn't matter if things overlap or are cluttered. Then put it aside for a while. When you come back, see if there are any interesting images in the page and, if so, redraw them without all the other clutter.

This 3d model started out as a box. I was just practicing doing 3d heads. As it developed it started to remind me of someone, so I continued to shape it in the ways that seemed familiar. Eventually I realized that it reminded me of Michael Rosenbaum (Lex Luthor from Smallville) so I got some refs of the actor and made some of the details more precise. I think its one of my better 3d busts precisely because its not something I'd consciously choose to do.

Happy BDay Buck!

One of the asylum staff, probably one of his psychiatrists. Note the syringe (with a sedative) in her right hand and the charred remains of her colleague on the floor below. The guy in Absinthium's room is staff as well.

Well old TA is experiencing some mental fatigue, fighting off the onset of some mental and physical degradation and is checked into the asylum. There he hears a strange tapping...bizarre messages in code coming through the wall...urging him to do things:

who's on the other side?

Just an extremely rough layout at this point.

Happy Bday LJ!

Happy birthday

Happy bday!

Happy birthday mang!

Happy Fooday!

Here's the final version:
Baby Tank

Happy Bday!

The "[censored]?" look on the freak tank's face is priceless. The whole thing reminds me of the last time my brute ran into her on arena night.
