The New General Art Thread - Now with more Bear!

[on:]

I noticed the old thread had lapsed and couldn't see a replacement anywhere.

A thread for anybody to post art which doesn't have to be Futurama.




This is supposed to be me.



Mulder and Scully from The X-Files.



My creepy Nun fantasy.



Something random and sci-fi-ish I came up with late at night.



And these last two are characters from a novel I'm writing at the moment:

  COLDY!

'Tis good to see you back on the board posting again!
Excellent work, as always.

What epic are you working on now?

I'm no judge of such things, but it occurs to me there might be a, ah... [*Ahem*] market for your 'Nun story'.
Dare I ask to what order she belongs?
I'll just ooze back out under the door now...

The prodigal son has returned and comes bearing awesome art!

[Reply #3 on:]

Dare I ask to what order she belongs?

The Order of the Rusty Kalashnikov.

The story I'm working on is an adventure set in 1975 and centering around the dubious exploits of a British smuggler called Blake Drysdale. It begins in the final days of the Vietnam War and involves a plot by the Americans and Soviets to recover a Tesla-derived energy weapon that had been developed by the Nazis at the end of WW2 but never used. It's called 'A Handful of Might', and it's a lot more lighthearted than my first novel.

Whee, new art from Coldangel.

You know, whenever I see grey aliens like that now, I always think of Roger from American Dad... and any seriousness goes out the airlock. Damn you, Seth MacFarlane!

May St. Cosmoline look kindly upon her...

Sounds interesting. Good luck!
Not that you'll need it...

Grey aliens puzzle me on how they can hold that huge head up on that skinny neck. Sure don't look like they could walk around for long at our 1G. They must have brains the density of popcorn and skulls made of foam board.

Way ahead of you...

Screenshot from the Season 3 episode of The X-Files - 'Jose Chung's "From Outer Space"'. Hilarious episode.

Somehow, I knew you'd 'get' that.

The 'alien' in the cell keeps rocking back and fourth repeating "This is not happening! This is not happening!" and eventually the bloke in the cell next to it overcomes his fear and yells "SHUT UP!"
Classic comedy XF.

Now, you're just showing off! 
Me? I got nuthin'...

[Reply #12 on:]

These are some pics I did for a fic by a guy named James Bovill. I normally wouldn't have done a request like this, but he was just so darned polite about it.

[Reply #13 on:]

Those look really good, as always. It's probably because I've been watching Lost all week, but Leela's face reminded me of Kate's in that drawing. Must be the freckles and the attitude.

[Reply #14 on:]

Yeah, I can see that. Might also have something to do with the almond-shaped facial structure.

[Reply #15 on:]

[Reply #16 on:]

Your work reminds me of a young da Vinci, bear.

Not Leonardo da Vinci, of course. Paulie da Vincie, a mechanic I once met in New New York.

Didn't seem to warrant it's own thread though.

[Reply #17 on:]

That is fine Gopher... I will just post my follow ups here

[Reply #18 on:]

That's actually really really good Go...Bear.

[Reply #19 on:]

Thanks, Books! I think it warrants some

I'm pretty sure they had consensual sex that night.

Also... this: ???

Spooky. So I guess he died, since the last update was eight years ago.

[Reply #22 on:]

Excellent work as always Coldy.

[Reply #23 on:]

Thanks Frisco

[Reply #24 on:]

It's one of the few episodes that I watch on a regular basis... along with Bad Blood, Little Green Men, Quagmire, D.P.O, War of the Copraphages, and Clive Bruckman's Final Repose.

[Reply #25 on:]

Good picks those, Winna. I also love 'Ascension' for the mountain location - very beautiful place to be abducted from.

Thanks Frisco

Pay no attention to that bear behind the curtain.

[Reply #26 on:]

Pay no attention to that bear behind the curtain.

Uh, coldangel, when you use that quote you are implying that a bear is behind your account. I'm sorry to break it to you but I am not you.

[Reply #27 on:]

Not really, no.
And didn't I tell you to shut up?

[Reply #28 on:]

I think you need to rewatch The Wizard of Oz

Here is a picture I drew of my good friend winna

[Reply #29 on:]

I once had that as an avatar on another message board.  Paul made it for me.

Nice self-portrait coldy.  Also very nice backgrounds on all your images, a lot of detail in them.  Your shading is becoming quite intricate and exciting too.

[Reply #30 on:]

Coldangel.. you make Fry look hot.

[Reply #31 on:]

Thanks Winna.

Gudbjorg - I was trying to make him look goofy...

[Reply #32 on:]

Here... this isn't my usual fare, and I dislike it immensely. Nevertheless...

Some random monster!

[Reply #33 on:]

That thing is pure evil :scared:

[Reply #34 on:]

  That thing is FREAKY!

[Reply #35 on:]

Cool. It looks like a cross between a Predator and a weta.

[Reply #36 on:]

It looks like a malevolent pokemon.

[Reply #37 on:]

tnuk: took the words from my mouth.  There is a distinctly pokemon feeling to it. More precicely, a monster from Yu-go-oh drawn in Pokemon style.

Note: This is not intended to be insulting.

[Reply #38 on:]

Maybe they should just switch it with Pikachu and see what kids' reactions are..

[Reply #39 on:]

Some dude asked me to draw it for a fic he's writing. He gave me a vague description to go by.
Pokemon, you say? Now I feel dirty.
