Art that sucks so badly no one dares to talk about it

Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

I don't remember seeing that Unown-creature-thing before and I love it.

Aww, I also adore Muttnik. She's adorable~

The Venomoth is also particularly cool. I seem to remember seeing it before, but it's still great.

I really enjoyed all of them, but those were my absolute faves :3
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

Ok what. How did I never notice this thread on the old forums, your stuff is awesome. I agree with everybody who's said that your art is really really lovely because the people/pokemon/whatever are doing something other than just standing there, and they're always so detailed and wonderful and I love them. <3

I can't pick favorites because everything is so cool, but I do especially like your ToS crossovers. :3
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

I know, right? D< Shame on you.

you know I think maybe more people would actually pay attention and comment if I could draw tooth-meltingly cute things like Danni. Or men in dresses, people like that, too. But I hate drawing dresses so that last one isn't likely. Oh, well, there goes a large chunk of my potential viewership. D:

But anyway! You like the ToSPokeymans nonsense, do you? Then Mhals is about to be a happy... Mhals.

adorable completely normal entirely benign and harmless little girl

This took me two days. Two. DAYS. And like 43 layers. And I still don't like it. And now I want to draw the rest of them like this and some of them are going to make me cryyyy. Think of how long Regal is going to take me. Stupid awesome Nidoking and his stupid awesome complicated plate armor and stupid Regal's stupid girl shirt and ARGH. Also I have this sneaking suspicion that Kratos's auburn hair is going to look retarded on a Houndoom's black head. D: my life is pain baaaaaaww

I blame any and all anatomical errors on the fact that I took her pose from this fantasy anatomy book only the model was this huge muscular bald man in his underwear instead of a little girl like it should have been. AND THE UNDERWEAR MAN WAS RIGHT-HANDED AND HE MADE ME DRAW PRESEA RIGHT-HANDED AND GUYS I'M PRETTY SURE SHE'S A LEFTY. D:

Um and somehow these got missed in the previous barrage of old so anyway more!

this am not spoiler!


...actually I recently realized it can't possibly be as spoilery as I thought it was, as Kratos is wearing the wrong clothes anyway. OUT OF PROPORTION AND SUCKY HALFASSED BACKGROUND ALL RIGHT no seriously I love how Lloyd is like one and a half times Kratos's size. I'm not going to lie to you and pretend it's "perspective"; I'll take my failures like a man, kthx.

lalalalala *trip* oops

Um yeah. This one sucks but it's mostly the scanner's fault actually. Also you stupid Colette why you don't has brown hairs. Maybe it would make you less stupid no seriously.

I'm so rich and sexy that I can look hot even when I'm lounging on what appears to be some sort of ridiculous spatial anomaly or something!

Yes you can, Zelos. Yes you can.

I draw, like, gay witches in dresses. Does that count?
Seriously though, best thing to make people view/comment in your thread is to comment in other people's.
(If it's any consolation, you're a far better artist than me. Especially when it comes to dragons. Man, I love your dragons.)
(...why am I whispering?)

Commented on Prezoose (?) on DA, but just to recap; I love her.

Yaaay, Railette~ I love how you draw Colette's wings; they're all pretty and bright and look like they're supposed to.

And I still adore Zelosken's expression. It's perfect, even though it shouldn't be on a chickeny head. And you can draw Zelos' clothes as well, I hate you.

And the LloydKratos one is one of my all-time faviyrute pictures by you, not just because of the ToS/Pokemonness, but because it's just an amazing action shot. Everything's so... moving, you know? Love it.

Yeah, I know, I know, but it's like I look at a thread and have something to say and then it... like... doesn't get said. D: I don't know why or what the hangup is, but... ugh.

Thank you though~

(And the Torchic line aren't normal chickens! They have teeth! D: So I suppose they can smirk like that if they want. I don't think you tell a chicken with teeth what it can and can't do T.T)
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

one of my all-time faviyrute pictures

What the living hell happened to my typing ability there?

I know what you mean, though. It happens to me with fanfiction all the time. And sometimes in the CC. It sucks.
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

I still love your ToS pokemon crossover things. 8D

I escpecially like Raillette (um, what, that name is really weird did I just make that up?) and Presea and for some reason I really like the coloring on the Colette one and and I just love all of them~

Yeah, I know what you mean about commenting on people's stuff, too, because a lot of times I'll be looking through something and think of something to say and then get to the little reply box and realize I'm way too lazy to actually type something out. I'm working on that. XD

But anyway, I'm paying attention to your thread now~
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

<3 <3 <3

Nothing else. Your pictures are just pure awesome.

No, you just added an "L" X3. That's what I titled the picture, silly, "Railette Brunel" (aaaaah god the lame portmanteaus stooop D:)

But anyway, I'm paying attention to your thread now~

When I conquer the world you can be Supreme Ruler of Finland. :D

<3 <3 <3

Nothing else. Your pictures are just pure awesome.

And you can have Luxembourg!

Anyway.

get a haircut you goddamn hippie you look like a woman

...not that the looking like a woman thing is entirely my fault! I take full responsibility for the hair, though. ARGH I want to stab his hair in the face.

In the next episode of "holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads": Phoenixkratos gets himself into more hair-raising escapades *shot* as she attempts to figure out how to make auburn look good with black, orange and white without cheating like it did for Lloyd's hair! Can he do it? Will she give stupid hippie Zelos a haircut? Will it shut up already and go do something more important? Find out next time on "holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads"!

*shot dead and shot again for good measure*
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

*surgically removes bullets*

Not right when I actually decide to post here! D:

Actually I'm going to let you die it's not worth it and that pun fried what was left of the common sense area on my brain. :[ Your art is too good to let you die. :D When if I take over the world before you; your can have Germany. And wha- hey portmanteaus are awesome. D<

But seriously, if you do manage to take over the world I can have Germany or Russia right? :D *shot*
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

I luffs him! (Zelos, that is.)

And I'm really looking forward to more hair-raising escapades XD
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

Finland? Sweet. I know I'm being a little bit selfish now but would it be ok if I had a couple of the jungle islands around Borneo and stuff, too? :D

And Zelos is awesome and I'm so looking forward to more of these~
8D
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

When if I take over the world before you; your can have Germany.

No, my will have Switzerland, which is infinitely superior.

But seriously, if you do manage to take over the world I can have Germany or Russia right? :D *shot*
No. Just for offering me Germany you get Christmas Island with its horrendous crab infestation.

...no I'm not kidding Christmas Island has major crabs, you guys.

Finland? Sweet. I know I'm being a little bit selfish now but would it be ok if I had a couple of the jungle islands around Borneo and stuff, too? :D

Only if you behave yourself.

And to make this post actually relevant, I haven't finished the uglystupidhellhoundhair picture yet D: but

here have another dragon (old!)

Not going into detail about it other than to complain that the Yu-Gi-Oh! people are obviously hypocrites who won't take an image perfectly suited to be a render (no bg! D:) when 99.999999% of their illustrations are just renders on trippy backgrounds ARGH. Okay done. [/conceited]

THREAD WILL NOT DIE [/moreconceited]
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

I remember him~ He still looks amazing, too. He's bright and colourful but still ferocious and YGO-dragony. I especially love all the details on the muscles and general structure.

...he should've won D:
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

Prettyful dragon... I remember him too! I can't believe that 4kids/whatever didn't pick Kaji... I wonder who won the contest though.

Your pictures are still as amazing as always. Zeloskin is looking very hawt, and I absolutely love the shading on him.
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

Sankyuu verree much, you guys. Eh, dunno who won; it sorta dropped off the radar as far as I can tell. It may not even have finished at all. Not like the Pokémon TCG art contest I entered two years before that (Mudkipz, anyone?), which I didn't win and it was rubbed in my face. D:

You... like the shading on Zelos? Ugh, are you blind it is terrible D: (actually it's mostly just his hair that's terrible but I'm ignoring that so thank you?)

Minor problem, guys. I'm not allowed to draw anymore. This guy in a blue suit told me so; he said that drawing sucked and I should focus on him instead because he and his friends are Just Fucking Awesome. I'm mad at the man in the blue suit, but I am his slave and must do as he says under penalty of penalties.

and I totally almost drew one of those friends riding on a triceratops after something another friend said to him. But no, I'm not even allowed to draw relevant (?) pictures, apparently. Curse you, blue-suited man.

But, as I don't want to have to perform CPR on the thread, I can at least dig up more old. So!

school mascot gogogogo

Officepeople at old middle school ask for gryphon. I give them gryphon. Not that this is what goes on the basketball jerseys; it's too complicated and, like, not vector art like it probably should be. It was for something entirely unrelated to sports. No idea what, but anyway there you go.

rawr

I didn't draw this from scratch; it was eyeballed from the back of a playing card. Still probably the best pencilwork I've ever done, though. *shrug*

You have just been flipped the birdie

also eyeballed from another picture. You know, I don't think I've ever actually posted this one on TCoD. Could be wrong, but I don't think so.

Eclipse

holy crap I didn't repost this one yet? o.O (At least, it doesn't look like I did... huh, maybe the old Imageshack link broke, because I uploaded it years ago.) But yeah, Eclipse from Golden Sun: The Lost Age. Coolest summon ever. Not the strongest (still really strong, though!) but who cares about how useful he is when he's just that sexy?

Camelot you retards hurry up and make another GS game I thought you never meant to stop at two D:D:D:D:

Now if you will excuse me, I must go back to the man in the blue suit D:
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

D: Guy in blue suit? Is that because of your, uh, hand-thing?

But all four of these pictures are absolutely amazing. I don't remember seeing the lion or falcon? Buzzard? before and they're both stunning. The detail in the lion, especially the crinkles by his eyes and around the mouth is amazing. And I think birds, especially beaks, are the most sinfullar hard things to draw ever, but the bird (?) looks so good~

The gryphon is also pretty damn awesome; I love the hind legs and the wings especially, and the detail on Eclipse, especially the horns and spikes, is very impressive.

I'm still kinda gutted about you not being able to draw more, though D:
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

...you, of all people, should've understood what I was talking about. D: The man said that he was Just Fucking Awesome. (Although at this point he's more Terrific and Tremendous...) Think about it, dear. ;)

The bird is a prairie falcon. I'd never heard of those before I got the huge expensive book about how to draw birds of prey I found the picture in, but yeah so. And aaaa the gryphon's wings are too short and that's always bothered me but I do rather like the rest of it!

Thank you~

I'm more than a little sleep-deprived and have spent my waking hours today (all three of them) watching Will & Grace reruns, so you'll have to forgive me; my brain's more than a little dead and I have no idea what anyone's talking about.

Pssh, gryphon's don't need wings that obey laws of physics. Look at most dragon pictures and marvel at how impossibly impossible they are.
But I like gryphon wings more because they're feathery and adorable~
 
Re: holy crap look at the melons on you it's like you've got three heads

I know, but I like defying their defiance of the laws of physics D:

Take your time, it'll come to you~
