    I have lurked these boards for so very long.

    I always want to bounce ideas around here but I always chicken out.
    so here goes.

    these are kinda old. I will make an effort to post more here in the AC.

    Why the fuck have you been lurking? Christ, I was a veritable incompetent compared to this stuff when I decided to bite the bullet and start posting.

    I'd post some stuff ... but I'm new to this whole forums shindig. How do I go about posting images?
    (should this question be going in the Questions/Discussions/Tutorials thread?)

    You have to host your pictures on something like photobucket. From there you can get the url for it. Something like http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/FUBAR/Really%20Bad%20Art/asdfif697e.jpg. After you have that, you copy/paste it between [img.][/img]. (remove the . from the first img tag.) And it'll show up. Like below.

    asdfif697e.jpg

    There's also a button called "Insert Image" where you just put in the url and it'll put the image tags around it.

    (For the benefit of the guy, not trying to one-up you!)
    ImageShack.us works great, too. Click the "i" next to your image and choose the 'Direct' link for posting. It's all preference though.

    Worst. Anything. Ever.

    I've only ever used photobucket, so wasn't sure if imageshack had anything to just give you the code. Just went with basic "find the url!" to be safe. (photobucket will also just give you the complete image code.)

    Whats a lurker.

    I like looking at the draws and doddles but never post anything myself as I don't really draw, just a designer.

    A Lurker thread was a great idea. It's the only place I feel brave enough to show my work!

    You guys have some cool things! Mustang's right...I have no idea why you guys are a-feared of posting. That's what the Doodle thread is there for! ...for things you don't want/need to make a thread for, essentially. It's probably the least-intimidating place in the AC (next to the chat thread, I guess :P).

    Basically what I'm saying is poast moar.

    Well for me, I think its a fear of commitment. I would have keep a certain level of badassness and not post everything thing that falls out of my head.

    But maybe thats a good thing.

    Hey AC, I've been peeping through the bushes here, for many many years. Only started posting and doing non-lurkey activities thanks to SSF4. Anyways in my spare time I like to make video game/cartoon 3d fanart:

    Do you do that professionally? Because those are pretty great.

    I don't know why so many good artists lurk when they could be getting unconditional and constant adoration by everyone.

    edit: I found your website. And then I was the lurkers.

    Thanks! But nope not professional. Just something I've been dabbling in for years now. It would be cool to do it as a job but I have no schooling or fundamental skills. And there's a lot of things I just don't know how to do.

    Fugitive- Thanks I've always been a fan of your work here.

    Loving the gentlemanly headcrab and the comic from Stillwater. Genius.

    So guys, I'm a long time lurker, one of my new years resolutions for 2010 was to start up drawing and have my own art thread on the AC. I'm scared and not there yet but thankfully, this thread exists...

    So here, have loads of my art:

    Various portrait sketches:
    img018.jpg
    img021.jpg
    img022.jpg
    img023.jpg
    img024.jpg
    img026.jpg
    img027.jpg
    img029.jpg
    img30fin.png
    img31fin.png
    img033.jpg
    img034.jpg
    img035.jpg
    img036.jpg

    Practice, practice, practice. Hopefully there is some progress.

    I'm still sketching, but I decided to give canvas painting a shot, it was tricky...

    When my brothers and I were small, we made movies a lot, here are screen shots from our film 'Resident Evil Again' made about 10 years ago, which I used as references to paint a canvas for my brother's 22nd birthday;

    Barn1.png

    I played Wesker, the one in the shades :P

    Here's what I came up with:
    IMAG0061.jpg
    IMAG0063.jpg
    IMAG0066.jpg
    IMAG0071.jpg
    IMAG0072.jpg

    Took about a week in total, I dislike painting grass now...

    And here, have a bonus painting of my Mum's cat;

    Another lurker here. I don't really draw that often and most of it is not really worth looking at, but I do read all your words and ogle all your arts from a distance.

    Here's the last thing I drew.

    Those are some really nice models, keep up the great work. I would say to add a few more textures to the rocks and the walrus snail but that's pretty much just it. I'm getting a starwars feel from the toad, was it intentional?

    It's easy...just put your image URL (like, http://www.google.com/image.jpg) in between these two tags.

    [img][/img]

    (or just click on the yellow+gray button above the text box when you're making a post, and it will have you put the URL in there).

    Linespider: Holy shit! You have an incredible style, I'm envious. Really solid pieces you have there. I use Maya, Mudbox, Photoshop, and Marmoset to render.

    e2db: I have more low poly stuff but it's for work, not sure what I can show off. It's mostly guns and stuff, nothing toooo exciting. Nonetheless, thank you for your comments. I love your work, you're not professional!??? You can totally get a job in the industry with your skills.
