Here's some thing I made during one of my classes on Friday. Make of it what you will.

It's a lizard dancing atop a cliff while the sun rises behind it. It's a very happy dance.

When I first saw videos of Spore a few years ago, I decided I wanted to make an race of sentient Crabs, I drew an epic (overused word I know, but It was epic, it was like 300) picture of Crabs battling Will Wright's Care Bears. It was very gory. But I seem to have lost it.

But I did find this:

Well, since I'm logged in an' all...

I dabble in fractal art. I'm really quite bad at it - I'd say I'm still learning but that'd wrongly imply that I'm actually trying. I pretty much throw everything against the Apophysis wall and see what sticks.

Anyway, you'll find my stuff over here [http://youarethere.deviantart.com], because it's 4:35am and I reeeeeally can't be arsed to deal with the amount of forum code required to put them directly into this post.

Out of immense boredom and in desperation for something to kill time, I've decided to upload a bit of my photography. There's nothing special about it I know, so be gentle if criticizing.







I particularly like this one, it looks like there's nothing but open sky behind the cabin. I just think it looks really cool :p


Most of these (Actually, all of them with the exception of the Absinthe shot), were taken on an overnight trip my 12th grade class took up to a cabin in the mountains. The camera I owned at the time was a piece of junk (Kodak Easyshare) which is why the image quality isn't great.

It's not a drawing, but a sculpture would still be art, right?


Why is the penguin standing on top of CDs? To show how it's mightier than Paramore, Daughtry,
Coldplay, Lupe Fiasco, and Evanescence combined. It's true.

I just fell in love with that penguin...

I especially like the sunglasses- nice touch, Shivari.

So I can't find any of my art that's actually on the computer right now, and I don't feel like scanning anything in, so here's a little poem I wrote a few years back.

For Glory! For Glory!
Ever comes the cry
For Glory! For Glory!
Summons men forth to die.

I see no Glory
on a field of the dead.
I see no Glory
in war and in lead.

Perhaps Glory is hiding
from the sight of my eyes?
Or perhaps Glory is simply
a pack of lies?

Whichever, whatever
Glory is or is not
At least the war has been won
The last battle fought.

Now Glory can rest
while the men are still wondering
How they were tricked
where Glory was blundering.

They all take a vow,
"T'will never happen no more."

Yet when Glory next calls
More will storm the far shore.

I don't think it's that bad, myself.

Time for more of NewClassic being pretentious full of himself helpful?
I smell an "I bet he's Cockney" situation a-brewing...
Funny, because I'm not imfamous for de-railing IBHC so much as I am infamous for taking the spotlight of shininess gooeyness and keeping it on myself. So would that be the opposite of de-railing?

Mono-railing? We shall see...

Okay.

i drewed a sandwich but i eated it
ps how do you post pics?
I'm going to assume you will use ImageShack [http://imageshack.us/].

Step 1 [http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a395/NewClassic/Silly/lolwut/img1.jpg]: Open Imageshack's main page, press 'Browse.' (Shown Underlined in Red)

Step 2 [http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a395/NewClassic/Silly/lolwut/img2.jpg]: The browse folder should open, find the file where your picture is saved. Select it, and press 'Open.'

Step 3 [http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a395/NewClassic/Silly/lolwut/img1.jpg]: Down at the bottom of the page (shown underlined in green), press 'Host It.'

Step 4 [http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a395/NewClassic/Silly/lolwut/img3.jpg]: This page should appear. If it does, then you've done everything correctly. If it does not, but the page that comes up is an advertisement, check your tabs and task bar. Imageshack redirects to advertisements. If that is not the case, return to Step 1.

Step 5 [http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a395/NewClassic/Silly/lolwut/img4.jpg]: Scroll down until you see the line labeled "Show image to friends", shown boxed in red. Highlight, and copy, the text in that line. (Right-Click > Copy OR Ctrl + C OR Apple + C (for Macs))

Step 6 [http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a395/NewClassic/Silly/lolwut/img5.jpg]: Put the link provided inside of image tags as shown. This should appear like so:
[IMG]http://img353.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gravityqg1.jpg [http://img353.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gravityqg1.jpg][/IMG]

[sup]Make a note that all forum tags such as [img][/img] can be all-uppercase or all-lowercase, but must remain uniform. The tag: [img]http://www.quotationspage.com/tag3.gif[/IMG] will not work because the beginning and end tags are different.[/sup]

I got another one:

Image is down:
Despite being really really sketchy, I love your style. It's a little messy, which is stylish, but to the point where it detracts somewhat from your work. Aside from that, it's a little lax on the shading. Don't get me wrong, I love it, it just needs a bit more detail on the shadows/highlights, and a touch of touching up.

Just finished this one now...


I've called her Cassandra. ^_^

The level of detail on the face is astounding, but notably missing elsewhere. It kinda distracts. Otherwise, though, I like it.

Cheers. ^_^

I would've screentoned her but I have bugger all left and I'm still undecided on what her hair colour should be, but I could've got a bit more overall detail in with some tone; texture and all that. But I don't think it's that bad for a preliminary drawing of this character.

I really liek breath of the mountain because you caught that purple just right. It looks like its rolling off the top, and I especially like that X in the sky. ^_^

Actually, there is one more criterion that I have to analyse before I decide whether condemnation of witchcraft or worship is due. Cars - your opinion, please.
The movie or the vehicle type? I haven't nor do I intend to see the movie, and I'm more of a motor bike person. I also think it's heinously stupid that we have millions of cars with one person in each, driving for hours on end each day.

That said, there's fun to be had in a spacious back seat.

Have you ever woken up
And felt that all the world
Had melded together into grey?
Colour leeched out like ink
From paper into acetone
Fading into grey.

...a shameless picture.
..horridness that will scare artists everywhere.
:)

One might be able to see that I can't draw.
This, however, is a piece I did at school when learning various tools in photoshop.
I didn't actually draw it. I just took several images and combined them.

Wow, every time I look at it, I find something new, lol

To put a spoiler in, tag it at the start with [ spoiler=title/warning/what the fuck ever] and a the end with [ /spoiler] (Removing the spaces, naturally). And that's an amusing image.

The following are edits to a pair of jeans. They have since had Gordon Freeman's face added.

I'll be getting better pictures taken while wearing the pants soon.
