lol @ nayades ^_^
I'm 17.
And is he chinease or not mang?

Thanks fiddle!
I'd love to animate them, they're done in Flash so I probably could, may take a while though and I'm not sure what I'd do to animate them, probly some spoof commercial

I have to agree with Olly K. I am a high school teacher and my students are always trying to get me to watch Dragonball Z. I told them that I tried watching it a few times and couldn't get into it. They told me I hadn't watched the "right ones". hehe So I actually let them bring a tape to school and we watched it during one of those times at school when half the class is gone for some event. I still didn't like it.

I'm not sure if any of you guys are fans of HomestarRunner.com hehe but Strongbad answered an email about anime and I thought it was hysterical:
Strongbad's Email About Anime

If you've never watched all of HomestarRunner's stuff, you need to! You gotta watch quite a bit to get to know the characters, but they are so funny once you do!

japanese would be more exact. but yup, oriental anyway.

been looking some pages back and saw your figures olly. man those rock. nice work.

i posted this in the cofee lounge but didn't get many feedback. i know it's too traditional for the forum but i thought i should post it.

acrylick on canvas:

[Olly K]

thanks
That's some really good use of brush stokes there, I'm crap at acrylics, I always water them down so they end up more like water-colours lol
And traditional is good, got any more I'd like to see them if you do

Radar, cools
I've watched a fair amount of homestar cartoons, thats pretty cool, maybe I'll send in an email and see what they do with it

Ok and I was a bit more restraint with this one and made it smaller (actually I couldn't be bothered to do such a big one this time):

[Radar_Brian]

Nayedes,

That's awesome! I teach high school art and I would sacrifice a small rodent if I had students working in that caliber. Heck, I'd sarcrifice a larger rodent if I was working in that caliber! hehe

KEEP'em comin'!

Olly,

I'm a big HomestarRunner fan. Those guys have so much skill. They make me want to make stuff because it looks like it was so easy for them. hehe. I know that makes no sense! Art seems like a big circle sometimes.. you start off trying so hard to be "realistic and perfect" and then once you realize you can only go so far that direction you end up circling back around doing simple and stylised stuff.

Gbillustration, Nice designs. I like the background on the Zero Tolerence one kinda like a comic

Xup, cool, only thing I don't like is his teeth and his tounge being brown, but I guess thats to cut down on the amount of colours being used

P.S. Anyone got any good sites for learning to draw good in flash?
And I still would like some more animation tutorial sites to.



Sorry to post again but no one is posting on the other post!

[CDP-Design]

rather than drawing in flash you could just scan in your drawn images and trace them using the pen and line tools in flash alot easier I find.

[Kaco]

i dunno, just a character i made...strangely enough he's a vampire and has a similar name to FK's own Nightwish...hmmm...

[Olly K]

Nice work Kaco, I especially like the eyes. Having no pupils works well

[Olly K]

This is a monster design for a comic/game idea thingy I had
