Funny you should say that.
My son is an aspiring artist and being able to bring him here and also show him the free items I have been fortunate enough to receive gives me a way to encourage him to continue his art. I don't have a scanner but I do work at a photo studio and have been trying in my little free time to photograph his art and plan to submit some here. For 11 years old he is doing pretty amazing stuff. I know, I know, he's my son and I'm a little biased but so what! ![]() |
My wifes sister (She lives with us, currently lvl 14...I mean 14 years old) is also very artistic. I have a couple of commissions coming and I can not wait to show her the results to see if I can inspire her creativity. Been tossing around the idea of giving her one of my characters and seeing what she could do with it...but school comes first

On a general note, this has to be the friendliest forum in CoH. I never found my way here in all my years until a few months ago and now it is the first place I check. Well that and the Tanker forum

This is the best forum.

Agreed about the friendly mood here. I'm not especially artsy (I used to be much more so but am woefully out of practice) but the general mood here makes this my first stop each time I hit the CoH forums.
I think there's one where you grouse about how your archetype is underpowered.
This forum does seem to attract some very nice folks, Its truly a pleasure to be a part of this community.
Oh i love this forum too
I just mentioned this in Camgean's thread but I wanted to say Thank You again to everyone in this part of the forums that have hosted or given out free art or free art contests.

I have been fortunate enough recently to have won two contests and been given free art from a couple people. You all really have no idea how nice that is for my son and me. My wife was diagnosed with MS this time last year, so as much as I'd like to buy art it's just not financially responsible of me right now.

And please don't take this as a plea to give PowerStream free art because it's not. It is is a very sincere post. Sometimes I just feel like I don't appreciate the little things I have and this was one of them.
THANK YOU ALL!!!!
