TheVoices does some more drawing...

[#240 :]

I've always liked your work as you clearly know how to draw. But with nearly all your past efforts there's been something just slightly out of place that bugged me. Nothing major, just slightly out of proportion body parts (Leela's head is often too large). But that latest drawing above, is close enough to perfection to shut me up. Excellent stuff.

Although you could redo the penguin style fingers on her right hand. Damn I just could help myself!

[#241 :]

That a good Leela picture

[#242 :]

Now that's a neat picture. Great expression on her face. Cool work.

One small nitpick: Maybe it's just the angle, but her right thigh look a bit "non-meaty", like it lacks some of the roundness in the first draft.

I find the idea of a pinup calendar most intriguing. That should win me the Understatement Of The Year PEELie.

[#243 :]

Wow. that is really pretty, though somehow i like the blue sketchy version the best. But isn't her hair a lot longer? When she had it down in The Sting it went down to her waist.

[#244 :]

Quiet Teral, I like em thin.

 Great work Voices. It kinda reminds me of the other Leela picture you did a few months ago.

[#245 :]

aww damn been away from this thread for a while
*slaps self*
awww man that new Leela Is doing awsome !!!!

nice work man!
although I think the fingers look strange, its just my poin of view.

[#246 :]

yeah, if u are interested in making this good pic great, she needs a little more thigh-meat and maybe thinner fingers on her *strains to figure it out* right hand

[#247 :]

I think Leela's more meaty, or maybe it only looks like that to me. But it's an excellent pic anyway.

[#248 :]

Holy crap in a hat, but thats an awesome pic of Leela. I think the major difference between the two drafts is that the blus shading seems to make the water stand out more giving her body more of a sheen. Seems that way to me anyway.

[#249 :]

I agree with everything everyone just said.

[#250 :]

Well, it had to come. Futurama fan art stopped being fun to do a while ago, I was only in this because I enjoyed it, when it stops being fun thats when I stop too.
So on a good ending note, heres my last picture. Take it as it is because I won't be improving it, no matter who says what..

It was fun.
Peace..

[#251 :]

Holy cow! Talk about going out in style! Fricking awesome. 

The shading, the background, the pose     , the attention to details, nothing short of stunning.

I particular like the hair, and the way it drapes around her shoulder.

Sorry to hear it's your last work, TV, but as you say no point in doing things that aren't fun. Unless you get paid, ofcourse.     

One last time: Sexay!     

[#252 :]

Well first i have to say that that picture is awsome. Leela looks just awsome, as does the style of the pic. A really great artwork

It is a damn shame that we wont be seeing more futurama artwork out of you TV. But as you have said if its not fun then its not worth it.

Cya TV. Hope life treats you well. And start a DA account so we can see anymore art you do in the future.

[#253 :]

Agreed. Truly amazing piece of art, I love the shading.

The Voices, it' s been fun, I'm saddened you're done with Futurama art, but as previously said, if it's not fun, don't bother to do it.  We'll (or at least I'll) miss you. Good luck, cheers.   

Perhaps I should tell you you're my favorite Futurama artist out there. 

[#254 :]

Sad to see it go my man.  Excellent one to finish on. I agree with Teral about the hair and how it drapes etc, fine shading and the pose too yes 

Hope you stick around for a while at least, if not, seriously best of luck in whatever you do. And as Robiben said, if you feel like doing a DA account, we'd love to see any new art in general you do.

Cya around.
 

[#255 :]

I don't comment here often, but wow. well fucking done.

You had the best run of us all, Tom.  I hope you're able to find enjoyment in your future endeavors as things first were when the fanart scene was still fresh.  I'm sure everyone here will always remember TheVoices, and not just say "remember that guy..."
And you'll always have me to talk to...

[#257 :]

*snif*

Truly the end of an era.

And that last piece is almost enough to make me ditch Amy.

...almost.

[#258 :]

Wow - way to go out with a bang. Incredible work there... It's great to see that you reached Futurama fan art perfection once again before leaving. Anyway, it will be sad to see you go - but like you said, if it's not fun anymore, why bother? You were a great asset to the Futurama fan community, and your artistic contributions were always really looked forward to and admired. Good luck in the future, TheVoices!

[#259 :]

Leela loooooks soo beautiful in that picture! Great job Voices! I am already missing all of the great fan artists, and asking myself if this is the beginning of the end. Anyway GL and GS, Voices.   

[#260 :]

I don't care! I can do my own Leela art! 

*sketches Leela*

*looks at sketch*

  

We'll miss your art TV, we really will! 

[#261 :]

I agree with what the Cymraeg above just said.
Well, TV, I hope you will find fun with other art 

And this is my posting # 945.

[#262 :]

TV, your work will indeed be missed: thanks for everything you’ve shared with us.

[#263 :]

 
well i think its a good time to quote Matrix:
 

Everything that has a beggiing has an end.

Its sad to see the end here.

but at least its not the end of all your art.
*waves Leela goodbye*

[#264 :]

Thanks for all the great art that you did, The Voices, you'll be missed. 

Hope that you'll still stop by and visit once in awhile, if just to say howdy.

[#265 :]

Thanks for all your work TV, the whole body of your art is a wonderful addition to the fandom! I hope your muse will revisit Futurama in the future but if not thanks again and all sucess!

To echo Wonderbee, don't be a stranger!

[#266 :]

I know I never really said so, but I have always been most impressed by your art. It always had this certain, special something about it that made it really unique and set it apart from everybody else. Is sad to see this day come... your work will be missed by many. I bid you good luck for your world of tomorrow 

[#267 :]

Impressive to the max, as always TV  You'll be sadly missed, but as you said you weren't finding it fun, but you ended your Futurama drawing history with a fantastic picture  The shading and background on that drawing is most excellent. Good luck for the future! 

[#268 :]

Stunning detail. Your last attempt outdone yourself. Us horney fellow fans will miss the drawings but life must go on.

[#269 :]

It's a fantastic picture. 

[#270 :]

You will be missed. Stunning work, as always, and a fitting "goodbye" picture. There's something... 'final' about the way that background looks, and lightly enroaches upon the foreground.

[#271 :]

I agree with coffee addict there . You'll be missed. Man, I wish that was a wallpaper Oh well.

[#272 :]

Aw. The Voices is quitting, and now FemJ too. What is this world coming to?

Now I'll never learn all your mysterious art secrets 

[#273 :]

Asylum-Fry> duh, apocalypse

Both The Voices and FemJ have decided to stop doing Futurama art(surely the devil iceskates in hell this day). I won't beg the two of you to stay but I will curse the day you decided to leave. I hope if the two of you ever get inspired to do Futurama art again you'll swing by and dazzle us. Or drop in to say hello now and again.
Thank you both for the wonderful art, best wishes and love.

[#276 :]

FemJesse: like TV, you will be missed. Thanks for all the art, especially your own unique take on the characters. Live long and prosper.

[#277 :]

That's totally cloolsome!  Pity it's the end, but I respect your desision 

[#278 :]

Bugger, that doesn't leave many of us traditional fan-artists left now 

Very sad to see you go as well FemJesse. Your art was always fresh and original.
This leaves a hefty hole in the trad. fan-art stakes. 

[#279 :]

Jesse's quitting as well?
