a drawing i made of max...

[G1orkatsos]

i was having a really boring lesson at school on friday and i made this... it was actually good so i desided to post it here with an another drawing i made a week ago... What do you think guys?

[DarkMoS]

I think you actually forgot to attach your drawing :)

[Jake]

I too would love to see your drawing, if only you had posted it :(

[fajerkaos]

Hehe, building up the excitement a little, eyy?... :D

[MrSneeze]

Come on guys, play along.

I think it's great, Georgie. Well done! Can't wait for your next one. ;)

[jp-30]

That's nothing, I made this Sam out of snot and paperclips. You like?

[Haggis]

I like it. Very minimalistic.

[Hero1]

I like your use of white space

[Sir Lemming]

It must be four-dimensional.

[MrSneeze]

Maybe it's just Max without the outlines; just the white.

[ReverendTed]

It's Max, riding on a white horse through a blizzard. Spectactular, or at least a spectacle.

[Derwin]

I am surprised no one is commenting on the other picture. He said he posted the drawing of Max with another drawing he made a week ago. Personally, I like the other picture better. It is a drawing of a sculpture of Sam wielding a large firearm, while wearing a miniskirt, behind a white curtain.

Anyway, if you can figure out how to post them, we would all like to see the pictures. :D

Oh, is that what it is? I really need to get my mind out of the gutter... :o

[Erwin]

Oh my. I'm starting to think we're never going to hear from him again. *snigger*

[Mel]

Part of me thinks that this is another Dave Grossman experiment. Only it has been done sneakily. :p

[Hero1]

Notice how he spelt decided with an "s" .. That's a clue right there

[G1orkatsos]

stop it guys!!!!!!!!!
i just forgot to post it!!!!!!!!!

[G1orkatsos]

here it is

[G1orkatsos]

thoughts??????????

[Welshy]

hehe, i like it. Is that the Bee from Bone??
Shame you drew it on lined paper thou. It's always nice to see some S&M fanart

[BigfootKC]

i didnt think Max had a heart :D

[Jake]

It wasn't very visible until the day Max discovered the spirit of Christmas.

[jp-30]

Great sketches, well done!

[MrSneeze]

Giorgo, it's really well done. If you'll accept some criticism, I suggest you practice more on loosening your hand/lines. You obviously have something going there, so don't give up on it! Well done!

[Derwin]

Nice job! I'm glad you finally got it posted. And although we now know Max has a heart, people don't seem to notice it is made of coal. Or graphite, hard to tell... or maybe lead, seeing as it is visible in the xray. Which explains why Max can't be hypnotized! Because, um, lead, um, is actually Plumbium, which gave its name to Plumbers, who work on pipes and leaks, which, um... can someone help me with this?

Anyway, if you ever feel bored in class again, and bychance happen to draw something Telltale related, please post it again.

Are you guys blind! The picture sucks! It´s like drawm by a seven year old kid! And the bee! What the hell is he doing there?

[Jake]

Draw a better one. Right now! Go!

[numble]

And the bee! What the hell is he doing there?

The worker bee is pouring honey into the honeycomb. But honey comes from honeycombs! It's a very deep philosophical and social commentary on the Sisyphusian nature of the human condition.

I think I just learned about human reproduction from numble... oh my poor mind!


Oh, and if you want to see a drawing that looks like it was done by a 7 year old, look at my avatar. Then look at the drawing he posted, compare, and realize that his drawing has a very S&M fitting cartoony style. Sure, it is not photorealistic, but when were S&M photorealistic? Don't answer that last question. Please?

[numble]

Kunkku-Antti--it appears I can't send PMs to you--please email me at [myscreenname]@gmail.com.

Back to the topic, I was joking about the meaning behind the bee, but on further thought, I think it actually makes a lot of sense.

[MrSneeze]

Are you guys blind! The picture sucks! It´s like drawm by a seven year old kid! And the bee! What the hell is he doing there?

Obviously it's not done by a professional designer, and he has said "school", allowing me to deduce he's a teenager. I think there's potential there, so with enough encouragement, he may one day become a professional designer.

How come you haven't been banned yet? I'd think that telling the people running this website to eff off was a quick way of getting banned.

[Mel]

I like his Max. :) (and his bumblebee!)

[Hero1]

nice work! kunkku this is a picture done by a child!

http://members.optusnet.com.au/%7Ehierohero/images/savesam2.jpg

[Welshy]

child or no...that may just be the best picture i ever saw ^

[ShaggE]

Kunkku, was that comment necessary? It's obvious G1ork is a kid, he's not Steve Purcell for crying out loud.

[brunner]

It wasn't very visible until the day Max discovered the spirit of Christmas.You, sir, made me chuckle quite hardily.

[G1orkatsos]

hehe, i like it. Is that the Bee from Bone??
yes,i tried to make the bee from Bone

Are you guys blind! The picture sucks! It´s like drawm by a seven year old kid! And the bee! What the hell is he doing there?
i would like to see yours...

Obviously it's not done by a professional designer, and he has said "school", allowing me to deduce he's a teenager.
i am 15 actually...

[abdallah]

edit- i missed your reply.. ok youre 15. Then you better start working hard on your drawing techniques if youre serious. Im not kidding, its a tough profession and youve got a long long way to go so i have to tell it like it is when youre as old as you are.

Make still lifes and go to a good art class. But ill tell you, in most cases artistic talent is clearly evident at the age of 15.

[matan]

It's a really cool drawing and I like the style! I also really liked the drawing of the bee from bone. Please post more!

Abdallah, give him a break, it's a sketch he has done during a boring class, not a masterpieced he's been working on for weeks...

[doom saber]

Imaginary drawings are my favorite!! I especially love the drawing that G1orkatsos drew of Max decapitating Sam and his razor sharp ears.

[abdallah]

Abdallah, give him a break

No :D Hes a young man and more than able to take it. When I started art school at his age I was pissed off at the teachers in the beginning for being harsh, but I soon realized that the fact that they were made me learn a great deal.
I was mad at my piano teacher as well, she always kept hitting my fingers real hard when I didnt hit a note correct and yelled, but she taught me to play the piano, and although she was strict about music, shes one of the warmest people Ive known in that town. Mastering a craft takes years and years of practice and i feel lucky I had such good teachers (one of them a quite famous artist) to teach me.

1) Who says he's in art school?

2) You're not his teacher.

[Mel]

Daisy: What do you do Brian?
Brian: I'm an artist.
Tim: I'm an artist.
Daisy: Oh, what kind of thing do you do?
Brian: Anger. Pain. Fear. Aggression. (You really have to see this to appreciate this bit of dialogue.)
Daisy: Watercolors or...?
Brian: It's a bit more complex than that.
Daisy: Tim does cartoons.
Tim: It's a bit more complex than that.

:p

[abdallah]

You're not his teacher.

I never asked to be, they forced me :D Yeah I know, but I was just saying why i dont believe in patting anyone on their head for no reason. He posted an image for people to comment on, and I dont think I was the only one who wasnt overly impressed by it, so I said so.
I dont believe in patronizing people, he put the image on display and wanted comments, I commented the way I would anywhere else. And then I was asked to give him a rest so I said why I wouldnt.

In all fairness I think there were much harsher comments than mine before I wrote.

[tabacco]

I don't think he was actually asking for artistic evaluation or in fact ever indicated that he wanted to pursue a career in art, I think he just wanted to share a drawing he did. Enjoy it, or leave it alone.

[Derwin]

Exactly. But at least one of your comments was constructive, abdallah. If G1orkatsos' goal is to be a professional artist/cartoonist, then he should think about taking classes in that field. If not, at least keep up the hobby.

My praise for the picture was directed at the cartoony style, and that seeing Max's heart through an X-ray machine made me chuckle.

[Haggis]

Yeah, this is true. Regardless of if you want to pursue a career as an artist or not, drawing and sketching helps you process information and make something new out of that. And I like the picture - it's certainly better than the things I doodled in school. :)

[G1orkatsos]

Then you better start working hard on your drawing techniques if youre serious. Im not kidding, its a tough profession and youve got a long long way to go so i have to tell it like it is when youre as old as you are.

i thing i will listen to your advice... by the way, the lesson i had was History...

[Haggis]

i thing i will listen to your advice... by the way, the lesson i had was History...
Oh... so sketching is more interesting than history? :( As a future historian, that grieves me, but perhaps it's just that the teacher was boring, or the particular subject that was discussed?

[abdallah]

Im glad I didnt put an emotional scare on your soul for the rest of your life :)
You might want to check out www.cgsociety.org if you want inspiration and see the best of the best digital artists.
Also consider a Wacom Intuos 3 www.wacom.com/productinfo/intuos.cfm when you want to start making digital art.
There are many online and free art classes and forums where you can get help. Just make sure the demands are lower than at CG Networks, because the talk is tough at the more professional places and any weaknesses are frowned upon.
Drawing from life is the best way to quickly become better. And drawing is basically the key to all other visual art forms.
A last tip, programs are somewhat expensive, so if you want to explore digital art (though i suggest mastering the pen first), you can get The Gimp www.gimp.org for free. Its a Photoshop clone, it does many things Photoshop does, but the interface is much worse. At least its free.
And get a good teacher. Youll advance much quicker if theres someone to point out the mistakes, than learning on your own.

[bashar]

Well honestly, I have to finish Phd in Arts and Design to draw a pic like this (I am 26 by the way). I like your drawing. I think this is the best way to spend history class. Wish I was a better drawer. I used to write lousy poems about death and stuff!

Anyways, you have potential, skip school and let's start our own company :D

[G1orkatsos]

Oh... so sketching is more interesting than history? :( As a future historian, that grieves me, but perhaps it's just that the teacher was boring, or the particular subject that was discussed?
the teacher is WAY too boring... Trust me... When you are listening to him it is like hearing Darth Vader... His voice is soooooooo slow and boring... It is not that i dont like history... Its just the teacher...

Im glad I didnt put an emotional scare on your soul for the rest of your life :)

thanks for the info...

As a fairly relatively competent artist, I can comfortably say that these drawings are awesome. Anyone who claims otherwise is a nihilist and a terrorist.
