I was told to peek in so I am?

Mostly Fan Art. Lowest tier of the Art Network. My bad.

Buuut. . .Maybe some peoples will like it. . .Though they ARE all drawings. Not 3d renders of any kind. If that is totally not alloud then pretend this post never happened. :evil:

Hokay, here's me fanart from Forgotten Realms (most of these are pretty old):

any art is allowed here [img]smile.gif[/img] and I have seen your work at DA, and must say I am most impressed ;) I will look at the links tomorrow, a little late and am trying to get food cooked before we travel in the morning :/

Wow, I love your drawings!

I was actually enough interested to look through all the pictures you posted. :D


I just have to ask: HOW did you learn to draw like that!? :D Did you follow any tutorials or did you just practice-practice-practice? How exactly did you practice? How long is it since you started drawing?


PS. Xan was my favourite NPC in BG as well. They should've given him a little more depth, a little more involvement, and he would've made a truly badass Moonsword wielding cynical elf. ;)

Those are really great! Keep up the good work [img]smile.gif[/img]

@uss: I am self trained. I took art classes in High School to meet a grad requirement but that's it. Never had much truck with classes.

So I guess it's just practicing. ^^;;

((I sometimes feel that I lack a certain polish that art classes could have given me though.))

Wowza! You gots yourself some nice skills there, real good pics! I especially love the Magus and Ysuran pictures!

I concur, you are very gifted indeed. You inspire me to dust of the old drawing tools and get to work. But alas, I am very lazy.

And I also concur about Xan, bloody good character. Shame they only put him in the Tutorial of Baldur's Gate II

Nice work you got there!

Thanks. :3

wow..that's great, love the last two..looks cool, ^_^;; (great..another artist that's better than moi)
lol

no really they are very good

I love "I Only Smile in the Dark". Very nice. You're right about classes adding a little polish to natural talent. I have few regrets about swapping out of studio art as my major in college, but not having a stronger foundation in painting or CG art are part of those regrets.

I *was* an Art major. Now Xan majors in English. e_e

wait...you ppl are already out of college or somthing?
am i the youngest?

I am still in college, actually.

Junior year.

i see, so still you're older than me, so i have time to catch up ^^

Well, not that I'm competiting really but I'm still 15 years old, so that makes me slightly younger than you are. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

darn it..well i'm 16 so....i'm not the youngest ^^

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Okay, Xan must know. What is that in your sig, Sythe?

I believe it is the portrait of the Dark Archon from Blizzard's 'Starcraft'. A unit you get for the Protoss armies when you have the expansion pack: 'Brood War'


--Kestrel--

Awesome pictures you have there. Especially liked the dragon and it's scales.

Those are brilliant! I think I like the second one the best. You're a very talented artist. And are those 'Garbage' lyrics in 'I'm Only Happy When It Rains'. (I'm not calling your work 'Garbage', they're the band XD).
