Woooo-weeee, this thread fell off the face of the earth while I was banned, lets blow the dust off. :realsmug:
So here's what I have been up to while in exile:
I am designing a halo background:

the shape and proportions on your stuff is really bad and the perspective isnt much better. the spartan hardly even resembles what its supposed to. id look at a bunch of screenshots from in game or something
I dont understand why you make your work so.. well not sloppy, but like kinda messy with the colors. I did my first picture in photo shop with the tablet, and it was not that hard to make it look realistic but also clean.
It's a choice of style.
Also I am not painting from references josh, and I prefer to do a messy style, though I can paint just as sharp as you can.
If you want to get paid for this stuff, then I suggest practicing cleaner methods. If this is a hobby, then great.Quote:

No it is a choice of style, I can paint perfectly fine in a non sloppy way, I just find this way funner. Drop it, I know my abilities, and what I can and can't do.
So you cant do it the right way then?
Josh do not antagonize me, you will get raped sideways.
heh. funny as it is, cut da shit in this thread please
I think people here need to learn to respect other peoples work, especially when they have no idea of the skill that person has, and ESPECIALLY when they have been doing something longer then the other person.
Even then, when a person has just started, we must show respect to their work, and critique in a polite manner. I could care the fuck less if you do not like my style, stop looking at my art then, but NEVER assume that the person does not have the skill to go beyond what they do. Art is a choice and is a freedom to express how I want to see the fucking world, real or not. I find it less and less appealing to post in this forum because the negativity towards people and differencing opinions, and harsh, uncalled for comments. Grow the fuck up people.
Moving onto you josh.
Josh you are extremely cocky. You painted an existing character with a probable reference, and to be honest it is great for a first time tablet painting, but it still is not anything amazing. Do not ever assume that someone can not paint right, because in the end you might just get your ass kicked.
To prove this I just did a 45 minute sketch of a barbarian without references:

It's not meant to be viewed this large, as it loses some composition, but oh the fuck well. It's only meant to prove a point, that if I wanted to take the time and effort to paint, I could and can create "un-sloppy" pieces. I prefer to explore and learn my own things though, so quit busting my ass over having fun.
