Tough vote.... I liked all the different takes on this theme....
Gonna go with Projectionist this month!! -
I'm thinking about making them a regular offering at some point. Not at the bargain basement sale price I ran... but relatively inexpensive.
-
Last one! Godie Digger is a deceptively blushing bride...
I hope everyone feels they got their money's worth with these. I had fun doing them ^.^ -

I'm going to be showing off some of my busts today!

So how does this wackiness work? You actually see everything going on on their computer? Man that would make me self-conscious.... that and then people would find out how often I get distracted and start Stumbling or flip through back issues of my digital Playboy subscription.
-
Yep, we have a good camera shop nearby, so I figured I would actually handle the cameras I'm looking at before settling on which body I want. I definitely want something that I'm able to carry with me fairly often, as there are many times when I'm out and about and see something like a really interesting cloud formation and want to grab a good shot for future reference usage.
This has been quite the threadjack.... sorry Dark One! -
Well, I meant that people are fierce loyalists to one or the other, regardless of actual specs.
Edit to LJ: I do need to look into lenses pretty early on, because a lot of reference that I want to shoot involves special lighting. So I'll need a good low-light lens (going for a nifty 50) straight off. -

I highly recommend the Canon DSLRs. You can get them relatively inexpensively, and they take fantastic pictures.

In my searching through Photography forums and such to find which model to buy, I found that asking "Canon vs Nikon" is like asking "Mac vs PC" o.o -
Yeah, can't really judge with the action movies nowadays. Very little is real anymore.
And as far as drawing muscles and skeletal systems, yes, I'm DYING to do that. Its an area where I know I've been severely lacking. My coursework is kind of messed up because I had only been able to take a class here and there for a couple years, but now I can FINALLY do things correctly and get in my figure drawing class. I'm very excited to start it. -
I find the hardest thing about doing action shots is actually getting any sort of decent reference. Especially for superheroes! I've come to find that pushing people off buildings to snap a few in-air pics is frowned upon in most municipalities.
On the other hand, its much easier and legal to set up a pin-up shot.
I'm waiting to see how much my supplies this semester will run me (it can vary from $100 to $500 or more depending on what supplies I might already have on hand and/or if I need computer software), and if I have extra left from my financial aid, I'm going to see about getting a DSLR camera. I believe I'll need one next semester anyway, as Photography is a required course. What I'd like to do is maybe head to one of the local martial arts places and ask if I can snap some photos of practice. I figure that will be a GREAT source of references for more action or interesting pieces. -

Well, New York State. Only been to NYC once. I'm kinda smack dab in the middle of the state. Utica-type area, if you're familiar with it. -
I LOVE how you drew Neurotika. She's so deadly adorable!
As a side note, I am, in fact, a Notary Public for the state of New York =P -
Pin-ups.... my first and truest love.....
I would suggest myself because there's nothing I adore more than the super heroines, even moreso if they're in a pin-up mood, but I don't feel right pimping myself when I know I won't be available again for that sort of piece until probably September. -
I don't think enjoying the concert will be any problem whatsoever. Dream Theater's newest album is wooooooooonderful.
-
Pfffft, like I'd ever use anything as boring as a gun.
Serrated mangos, on the other hand... -
No problem. You didn't say any price yet, so it was just a forewarning ^.^

Now wait just a gosh-darn minute here!! -
If you've got the monies, hopefully Bayani can drop in and help you out with some of the people he's commissioned. His collection is top-notch.
Its hard to talk hard prices out in the open here, as its forbidden. -
'Tis no problem, Bayani. This is just a quick sale because its something I know I can complete by Sunday night (which is why I'm being strict about only doing 5!). If I like it well enough, I may do another in the future.
As of right now, I THINK all 5 have been accounted for, just waiting on a couple confirmations. -
Why do I attract all the drunken perverts? Just because I act exactly like they do isn't a very good excuse.
