Hi I'm new.
I draw and doodle a lot, but I've never really done anything serious. AKA my artz bring me no
bling
I'm going to take a community college art class in a couple of months and I think it'd be good to get some honest opinions from strangers. XD I think that I've grown kind of dumb from being involved in too many oekaki boards/art communities where praise is heaped on you more for how popular you are then how well you can draw.
I've grown really weak at traditional pen on paper stuff (hence everything being digital) and I don't think I pick the best of colors when it comes to coloring. :'d
Milo Ventimiglia fanjunks. I don't use OpenCanvas much, but I'm trying to use it more often. I got bored with this after finishing the face and rushed through the rest, especially the background and shading so I put a concrete wall texture over the whole thing to fake it.
OpenCanvas/Photoshop
Quickly edited (by that I mean default photoshop shapes & filters x 100) image I used for my website so that it wouldn't look so plain. I press down really hard while drawing and I've been trying to reteach myself not to. I really liked how weighted the lines came out for this.
Photoshop
Gift art for a friend who was down about her working situation. I did this in about 2 hours with out any previous thought about what I wanted to draw. Totally "sloppy & quick" compared to how I usually draw things and I think it came out better then most of the stuff where I might really be trying to put some effort into the drawing.
Photoshop
:'D I drew this after a weird phone call from an old friend who had moved to a tiny town in the middle of nowhere in New Mexico. I don't remember the entire story, but from what I do remember he couldn't use his shower for a few days and ended up bathing in his backyard where he accidentally picked up a snake.

Sometimes I just feel like drawing boobs (even if I end up covering them up). I like this and I don't like this. I think the face came out weird and I feel lazy for hiding the hands and legs.
Photoshop
More gift art. Totally traced the face, but did the hair myself (which I like the most). XD
Photoshop
Another MV fanjunk thing. I drew
a similar image before this one, but while I was working on it I got bored/tired and ended up tracing most of it just to be done with it. That image got a lot of attention and I felt like it was really trash so I drew this one to make up for it.
Photoshop
I didn't feel like drawing one night, but I forced myself to anyway. I used two different paparazzi pics of Posh and Drew Barrymore for this. I should have changed brush sizes when doing Drew.

But yeah, neat art. I'll comment more later.

Conspiracy!
What's up, Bombsy? Long time, my friend. I may be stopping around here a little more often now.
Irishlad: DUDE! You're the one who did that groupshot of Team Special Olympics (with a giant DMAC) back in the days of old! Head to the chat thread and tell us what's been up with you all this time!
and yes yes you do know a mully
im a mully
and i am that mully
and that drawing
is up in my office
My brother has boots just like that. Wowzers.
Everyone should have a Mully in their lives.
Sometimes I think I'd really like to get away from doing anime art, but I think that's really more because of other people's reaction (good or bad) to it. Once you get the hang of it though it's a nice and easy style to duplicate.
I think those are the only two where I picked the colours myself with out relying heavily on a previous palette. I really wish I had a better eye for colour. Sometimes I feel like a human xerox machine when I have to refer back to the refference material so much.
I know what you mean, I freaking love that boot.
:'d I did the lighting all wrong on this and I keep telling myself that I'm going to go back and fix it, but it's been months. But anyhoo, yay for the Mothman and more Mully!
Photoshop
I was asked to draw something that resembled a screen siren. I decided to try out a semi-different style. I don't like the hands. Hands as big as Ham hocks I used to sketch pages full of hands all the time to get it right, but it never really sunk in.
Photoshop
Again trying a different way of drawing/colouring. I did this during my initial excitement at learning how to use Photoshop's bezier tool like you would the one in an oekaki applet. I like brown lineart.
Photoshop
I love drawing Mully stuff (if you can't already tell). *Hint*Hint* Mully send me crap to work on or my talent will be wasted on Milo junk and pr0n. XD
Photoshop
Fatal frame fanart (kind of) That's Kusabi or as I nicked him Tanuki, which made the game even more fun (if that's possible) because I played this with a friend (who covered her eyes a lot) and would scream "Ah! Tanuki!" whenever he appeared.
Oekaki, PaintBBS
I used to really love to draw oekakis, but then it became a job and I grew to hate it. I draw about 1 oekaki a year now, just to get the urge out of my system. :')

Sometimes I like to draw things that make me laugh. :O Most of the time this stuff is only funny to me though. Thankfully this falls under the category of funny and beefcake.
Photoshop
and finally two MSN doodles
XD These two are probably my most favorite drawings EVER!
Who is this?
Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) from the series Bones. He is a sexy devil!
I can't remember exactly, but I find it hilarious.
yay animal planet.
Man Yume I love your art so very much ;_;
I guess I ought to make some comics for you to ink some time soon
oh man i am so lazy
i should send you my current one to finish
AHAHAHA!
:'D HAHA I had to look up NHO
And I agree, He is awesome and the NHO thing too LOL
:O Yez PLZ send me stuff to do. I spent the night drawing the most ridiculous crap and I'm almost serious about that flower crap. XD
I had to spend the better half of today in a doctor's lobby so I brought some stuff to draw with since I would really like to get better at the more traditional stuff. I had some previous doodles of Mully in my book plus blonde kind of = Mully for me. :'D In the non-traditional sense. un-Photoshoped version
I have no idea how skirts work! But I like how you can see the Mully pigtails in all the other hair.

SEX OR SOMETHING
BUT NOT
WHAT COULD EQUATE TO SEX
IN A PLATONIC FORM
OH GOD I WILL BUY YOU UHHH
jesus come to pax yume :'D i will buy you coldstone
same damn thing
I know what you mean about the arms. It is one of the bane's of my existence.
That was our thing dammit!
*Points to sig*
I need some crits/help with this: linked cause of lack of clothing.
I had set out to draw something totally pornographic. The original pose was kneeling, legs spread, no clothing at all, but I got sick of the legs and embarrassed by the penis :'D lol
I might trash this and go back and try the first pose again, but I've spent about 6 hours just messing around with this and would like to get something worthwhile out of it.
XD I didn't know if I should start a new thread for this, so here's some new stuff I've drawn in no particular order.
