Loon's Gallery- Another update, nothing special (2/29/08)

[Loon]

That is one smooth pic 👍 maybe too smooth in the front compared to the edges of the front fenders if you´re getting down low on deatails that is. Sweet sweet work for sure!!!

Thanks man!

A verry nice update! i will sugest you to just "repaint" the body lines a bit (like Ultrashot did in his tutorial) so the car will popup.

I would follow his guide but I've been lazy and still haven't got PS so I'm still using GIMP, thanks for the comment though.👍

Very nice, but I like the red tone the most in this shot.

Thanks dude.

i like your subaru shot, and TT is looking better and better, i just wanna buy it

Thanks, I'll sell it if you want.

I really like this one! For me it's not too soft. Makes it all smooth and unique. 👍

 

[Barracuda]

the last update looks pretty cool. i don't really like the red background but whatever you know, the shot is still good.

I know this has nothing to do with GT4 or cars but ohwell, I had to do this project in my Art Intro class the other day and really wanted to get some opinions on it. The only thing I don't like about it is that when I started to add shading and shadows all my grid lines that I erased came back, so if you could ignore those and let me know what you think about it it'd be much appreciated. 👍

 

[jgda9rs]

nice one! now i know why you called yourself FBD

 

[Loon]

Hahaha, very funny. But yeah, thats why.lol

 

[Snyp]

Nice work LOON... Awesome

 

[Pebb]

Why did you use Grid Lines in the first place?

Because when I use to go to School and College I never ever used grid lines in my artwork.

 

[Loon]

Thats how we were told to do it. We put a grid on a small pic of ourselves, the made it scale size on a bigger sheet of paper using the gridlines.

 

[LGforce]

coool dude ! looks kinda funny...lol

 

[Speedster502]

I always find it difficult to draw noses on people but am getting better. It is a nice picture LOON. I would show my most recent "Hamster" picture but it is in my art book.

 

[Loon]

I had a hard time drawing my lips, I find them to be the most difficult thing to draw, especially on guys. When I do them they always look like a girls lips, thats why when we were asked to take a pose, I covered most of my mouth.

yeah I understand that. I'm workin on something like this, only I'm painting my uncle and cousin and it's for money. It's 2 meters by 2.5 meters big, so I call it "my huge uncle". I do it andy warhol style, and it has much bright colours, just the lips... I painted them red and now they look shemales!
will post a pic of it when it's ready in my gal.

it looks cool, got more?

 

[Loon]

I'd love to see that picture, Andy Warhols style was pretty cool IMO.

I've got a couple more peices of work...

I've got a landscape shot that is painted Van Gogh style with real big brush stokes. And I've got a collage that we had to do, we had to make it look surreal like Mark Chagall. Thats all we've done this year.

 

[D-Mind]

U R SO HORNY OMFGZ
Nice drawing!

 

[Loon]

Say what? Did I just miss a funny joke?

 

[Tommi]

I like art lessons a lot and drawing but im naff at most of it (especially faces) im more interested in photography really. (dreaming of a DSLR) but i like your work a lot:tup:

The kind of 'art' i like to do is by this guy Julian OpieI like the modern style of it.

Sorry if the post is a bit confusing but im feeling a bit weird today

 

[Beerz]

Nice work, LOON.

Only a couple of things; the eyes are different from each other in size, you basically don't have knuckles (sp?), your fingers bend in a circular shape as if you had no bones inside, and... you have a punctured ear.

Not dissing it or anything, just pointing a few things that could be improved.

I suck at painting noses and mouths, and hands and feet. That's why I tend to - literally - remove them from the paintings I do (the few that have people in them), leaving the flesh hanging, bones showing, and veins and arteries dripping all over. Been drawing and painting that ever since I was 14.
Luckily, only 1% of my paintings are like that.
I'll try to post a few pics of them in my gallery when I can.

Good work on the shadings, very smooth looking. 👍

 

[Loon]

Thanks Tommi, I too really like photography, probably why I got into the gt4 photomode as much as I have. Those pictures from Julian Opie are very interesting, its like a of vector of person, looks very cool and original.

Not taking it as dissing at all, everything you said, as I looked back up to my picture seems to be true. The only thing I can think of as to why my one eye is smaller is because my head is turned slightly, also why you can't see my other ear. But I know about the knuckles and shape of my hand you're dead right. Its always good to get some criticism from a skilled artist, helps alot IMO.

Oh, and the ear, thats a 2 guage plug.

 

[Tulok]

looking good Kory! Whoo, u a fiiine man!

 

[AOS-]

To be honest with you, i Don't like it, regardless of visible grids or not. However, i Can't do better myself. I have never drawn portraits ever, well maybe except portraits of cars or birds. I can do those really well. You should see my photoshop rendering, it's pretty damn good, even though they have proportional errors.

 

[Loon]

Here the shot I entered for the Tourney.

 

[Barracuda]

I voted for your shot . I love the contrast and color, it just really grabbed my attention.

 

[D-Mind]

The car didn't need the effects, if you just left the car sharp and the background this way or with a blur, you'd get more votes, i like the colors.

 

[jgda9rs]

ghostly and mysterious. well done! go gimp go! damn dude, i wish you could of moved on past the qualifying. ah well. you got better things to worry about. keep up the good work dude!

 

[Loon]

@TEAMDiablo3: Cool, thanks man.👍

@Ray: Thanks for the tip man.👍

@Jgda9rs: Yeah, GO GIMP. Its no biggie about the tourney.👍

 

[Pebb]

Too much blurring on the car in my view, but I hope this is not a sign of things to come.

 

[Loon]

Are you saying you hope I don't continue with a style of shot as this one.

 

[Pebb]

As long as I can see the car a bit better with less blur on the cars whole body, then that is ok.
