Since the Criticism thread was Ochoed, I have taken it upon myself to create a new thread, phoenix-like, out of that thread to discuss the two most important facets of said prior thread. My desire for chips and Foo's unhealthy romantic obsession with frozen dairy products.
DISCUSS!

God I hate work I miss all the intresting discussion ...can you guys maybe twitter at each other so I can follow along at work ?
Now Deebs, you know full well that if this discussion were to take place on Twitter, it would degenerate into talking about what people had for lunch and other food related discussions. And honestly, who wants to read stuff by someone who is just going on and on about chips or something like that?

You fool! Do you come from some bizzaro land?? Bad things are MUCH nicer than good!
eating right and excercise = good
beer and potato chips = bad
Now tell me, Mr. Lurkey, which one is nicer????
But I put it to you that beer and potato chips taste good, and are therefore nice.
QED.

If you ask me, I believe that good things are nice, and bad things...not so much.

Have I mentioned I want chips yet?
Because I do.
TL -
Right now, I'm just on a distinguished road. I hope there's a store along that road that sells chips. Preferably Cool Ranch Doritos.
I hope some day that I get enough +rep so that it says "Turkey Lurkey is all that and a bag of chips." Because I'd really like some chips.

Style is something that you do purposely because you enjoy the visual aspect of twisting the normal into something else.
My style is Golden Age Post Modern Deco-esque with Liefeld influences.

I was once under the opinion that anything posted in a "Hey, Look At My Art" thread was open to critique. That's why I post my art, I would like pointers on how to get better, I figured that's what other artists are looking for too. Then I got burned a few times. I offered up the "praise sandwich" (this is good, this could work better if you did this, this is good) on a few threads and got tore a new one by the artists in question and their groupies.
I realize that I'm not a professional, nor is my art all that great or highly sought after, but I do have a number of art and design classes under my belt, so I like to think I know what I'm talking about occasionally. But nowadays, I just offer up critique to those artists who specifically ask, "Hey TL, what do you think?". Otherwise, I'm Mr. Jokey. If all they want is "ZOMG, that is Soooooo kewl!" they have plenty of others that can do it for them. I'm here to learn.

Okay, got my five. Sketches should be done in the next two weeks or so. May have color, may not. Depends on my mood and concept of the picture.

Vexxxa: If you want art, you count.
Kat: I've already got you on my list for the Love Thread, I'm just waiting to know which character you want done.
TA: Somehow I knew you wouldn't pass up this offer.
So, the standing so far:
For this offer:
1. Powerstream
2. DoctorMystery
3. VexXxa
4. Beta Rey Bill's Assassin
5. Jophiel
Spreading the Love:
1. Surazzal(?)
2. Katfood
3. Pyro_Nympho -
Well, no one took me up on my Free art for the 10,000th pageview on my DA page, my subtle hint for freebies in the last post went unnoticed, and my commission queue is non-existant. So I guess I'll try this.
One free character sketch to the first 5 people in this thread to say that they want one. No gimmicks, no games, no tricks. 1st five people take it. Please leave ref shots and any other relevant info in your post. If you've gotten art from me before, you're welcome to try again.

Hey everyone! Foo's over here and wants to know your opinion on the new Twilight movie!!!!

EDIT: Hey Forums. Don't tell me what I can and can't capitalize. The above statement is only funny if it's in all caps. -
I think I'll put my name in for the artist part of this, if nobody minds?

What sort of love are you offering?
1. A sketch of your character.
2. Short script/play based around a character of your choice.
3. Your very own Turkey Scratch (ie. a sketch of your character with one or more of the Turkeys, often with amusing results).
Anything beyond that would need to be discussed....

Don't worry TOO much.... gotta keep the costume on so he'll be recognizable ^.^
Speaking of which, do you have any better refs, TL? The one I found on your dA page is painfully small.
Actually, the refs are quite big if you click the download link on the page. Observe:

Unless you need refs bigger than that?

Surrazal never got back to me with screenies, so I'll take up another vict...person with which to heap my love upon.
Let's see, I need to work on my wimmin folk, so Katfood amd Pyro Nympho, I Choose Youze! Let me know in which form you wish your love to take.
If Surrazal resurfaces and gets me his screenies, I'll still hold up my end and do a piece for him too.
TL -
Brandon rules. If you haven't gotten a commish from him, now would be the time. He can make ANY character look cool.
Observe.

So, I get to babysit a soundboard on Saturday whilest the Packers/Bills game is going on, and as such, I've got 5 hours to fill. So I thought, hey, I'll art! But what to art...?
Any suggestions?
TL -
If Wassy's not going to come clean if she created this alleged piece of art or not, then I think I should step forward and set the record straight.
I made it. For reals. Heap the praise on me.
If the piece actually exists. =P
