Episode V: General Fan Art Strikes Back

[Reply #160 on:]

Wow! Very nice indeed wu! Though I have to agree with Zmithy, Amy seems to have worked out a lot lately. Her look is excellent though and you did a perfect job on the bikini.

Again a comment from the one who can't draw himself.

[Reply #161 on:]

Thanks for the comments.

I will admit that she is abit more muscular than Amy would normally be but I find it adds a little more interest when I am shading.

I am glad people like the bikini I was quite happy with how it turned out. I think I might of seen something like it before and the image stuck with me. Basically it was just what I imagined Amy would wear aside from her spray can bikini.

[Reply #162 on:]

Ok, well here's another one, from me.



I'm going to try it in another style as well.

[Reply #163 on:]

Nicely done DogDoo8

[Reply #164 on:]

Here's a wallpaper I made for SSF's birthday... I think I kinda hate how it turned out, maybe I'll make it better later 

[Reply #165 on:]

Which was drawn between classes on Wednesday.

[Reply #166 on:]

WOW! Awesome drawings EL.

Great to see you back. 

[Reply #167 on:]

Clool, I like the way the professor looks, and all I can say for the second one is, [Zoidberg]CRAWWH.[/Zoidberg]

[Reply #168 on:]

Eh.. whaaa? Lunch is back? Whooooo!!! Very nice Edna you made.

Also a very nice made picture you have created there DogDoo. 

Now I will whore out some scans I made lately for avatars:

This one was made for Y_L_B, Yancy holding bolgna.


That is made from a cut-out scene of Birdbot of Ice-Catraz.


And these where drawn today:

Two women.

[Reply #170 on:]

Nice to see you still stop by once in a while, EL.  Pictures are wonderful, as always, though I'm never much of a critic for you, am I?

(Staples EL to PEELified)

There, no goin' anywhere for you! 

[Reply #171 on:]

EL is... Alive? And her scanner is, too?

Wow. I need to check this thread more often.

Awesome job as usual! I love the look on Leela's face, and Amy's hair looks really cool. 

[Reply #172 on:]

Gorgeous. Absolutely Gorgeous.

Evillunch, do you even realise how much people miss you here on PEEL?

[Reply #173 on:]

<EDIT> Post cleared

Go to my thread

[Reply #174 on:]

EL why is Leela lumpy? Her right side is all wiggly.

[Reply #175 on:]

EvilLunch is posting art again?  Why wasn't I informed?

[Reply #176 on:]

EvilLunch, I wasn't around for your earlier stuff, but its all really neat, great to see you back at it, even if it's just the odd sketch now and then.
I adore Leela's cute, but funky (and naked  ) pose!

RS 2thou, those are looking nice, especially the Bender one. 
I like your style, hope to see some more soon.

[Reply #177 on:]

Hey everybody, nice work thats coming out on this page. 

Leela's here and she's a bit cold.


Ok, well this is Fry and he got listning to his "All Rush Mix Tape"  while walking Nibler as a favor to Leela.


I like this one the most, good pose I guess.

[Reply #178 on:]

Whoa, weird lookin pics DD8.

But in my book, weird is good.

[Reply #179 on:]

venus- failed attempt at making a more realistic looking stomach. lately I've been making a point of including the patch of fat on the front slightly under hip level. that didn't turn out right, though.
dog- god those're gorgeous.

[Reply #180 on:]

Well I see where you're coming from EL, I don't think it looks too bad, and the rest of the picture is adorable! 
Nice to see you around again 

Nice work DD8, I agree about the last one, I like that in particular 
THe Fry?Nibbler reminds me of the art style that was used for the Gorrilaz (spelling???) videos - which is no bad thing 

Anyvay, just an additional note to say I have some new additional artwork up at Something About Leela, with it (and more) appearing on TLZ some time tomorrow hopefully 
Go check it out if you're interested. It's artwork that hasn't appeared on a website before, but... most of it I've posted here already, and some of the peices are over 18 months old...
I need to get back into the swing of this me feels...

[Reply #181 on:]

I'm lovin' the stuff you guys...amazing work...

Just wondering, but what's a "scan"? Is it just pictures you sketched then went over in photoshop and stuff??

[Reply #182 on:]

Another question; when you guys scan em, what program do you take it to and what tools do you use? I've started learning the pen tool, so if it's the pen tool, I made try it out.

[Reply #183 on:]

Hey Cosmic H i can answer your question:

People say not to use the pen tool, or its the other way around, i dunno.

also, don't double post, use the edit button.

[Reply #184 on:]

@Cosmic H.

To answer you first question, YES.

In answer to your 2nd question.
Most people use the Pen tool, well I doo anyway. And the best program to use is the Adobe Illustrator, its all based on Vector programing wich means you cam zoom in and the lines will never get pixilated.

Hope that help you a bit.

[Reply #185 on:]

Zed 85: That looks fantastic, its very atmospheric.

I've always used Macromedia Freehand for lines, I find it a lot quicker, and much less annoying to use than Illustrator.

[Reply #186 on:]

BUMP...

Hey Peeps, This is something that I bring you from the world of 3D. I decided to try my hand at modeling a head, thiss is my second try and I think he looks pretty good, the first one sucked ass.
Anyway, I'll be doing some twiking  and adding of a few things.

[Reply #187 on:]

Woah! Kloolsome looking model DogDoo!

[Reply #188 on:]

...That is so cool! I love the lighting and the way the glasses emerge from his head.

<3

[Reply #189 on:]

AsaB, did you use the computer to make those?  If not, what?  Very professional looking work.  Your attention to detail takes it to the next level.

[Reply #190 on:]

Tire: thanks a lot for the compliment  But what pictures are you talking about exactly? I haven't posted pics in this thread for months, but if you're talking about the ones I posted on the first pages, then yes, I did colour them on the computer. But I first drew and scanned them.

DogDoo8, your latest pieces have been so awesome. The 3D one is cool, but the Leela above with the gun in the kick-ass pose just rocks! You should colour it.

[Reply #191 on:]

i was talking about the ones on the first pages.
you're welcome, naturally.

how do you scan them to the computer and finish them there without showing any trace of the original drawing?  i could see how it could be done but can anyone do this with a PC?  if so, i would like to try to do the same thing.  i have a scanner but my drawing is a lot larger than the scanner bed.  any guidance would be appreciated!  or email me maybe... some people here have a serious problem with off topic conversation for some reason.

[Reply #192 on:]

Sure, you can do it with a PC. Or a Mac, if that's your preference. I use PhotoShop for colouring. I'm not sure if you're familiar with it or not, but because of a wonderful little thing called layers on it, one can easily draw on top of the original sketch and then discard it later, with only the new lineart left. Get my drift? Found this little pic that explains it a bit

As for your drawing being bigger than a scanner: Well, I've heard that PhotoShop 8 has a new features that should help you. You simply scan your picture in steps and then a magic feature in PhotoShop puts it automatically together, without any noticably traces of merging. Magic!

Anyway, you can probably find PhotoShop somewhere on the net. And we're not that off-topic, are we? Just two budding artists helping each other out, in a fanart thread! But if you have any (long?) questions, feel free to mail me.

[Reply #193 on:]

A level of Robot Hell. I think.
I have been drawing Fry very much lately. And I am also fascinated, as Matt is, by.. humans having things done to them by machines.
Linked to it instead of displaying it for.. blood, I suppose. I may colour it. http://img51.exs.cx/img51/8070/fry3gg.jpg

[Reply #194 on:]

Positively, wonderfully creepy. His expression is priceless.  Reminds me of this anime I saw once... 

[Reply #195 on:]

That is awesome EL! I went through all your threads and just love your work, especially the episode cards. This actually isn't that bad compared to some other stuff out there. I love his expression, it is perfect for this type of situation and the bloody claw mark where the machine is grabbing him. Do color it, it would be great. (Better than I could ever draw)

[Reply #196 on:]

God I miss your art EvilLunch...

[Reply #197 on:]

That's so wonderful--yet creepy. I really love your art and unique style.
Oh, and colour!
