thestalkinghead Posted August 17, 2013 Jake: Totally great and useful advice, half of 'art' is finding an audience who care, which I guess is why I post things on the Internet at all. yeah, if just one person likes it, it was worth showing it to them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ucantalas Posted August 18, 2013 So I broke out my tablet and drew a little something. I'm still getting used to drawing with the tablet, and I decided to try using Illustrator for the first time ever. So a lot of learning and practice going on here.

tegan Posted August 18, 2013 Illustrator is rad, but it really takes some getting used to. It was one of my favourite things to learn in college. Also, thanks for the advice, Jake! Right now I'm working on a Pokémon thing, and I've also submitted a portfolio to try to get into the PokéStory Zine, so hopefully that pans out. In the meantime, I wanted to put up at least one finished piece tonight, so I drew a shitty wizard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted August 21, 2013 So I'm working on a Pokémon comic. I'm not gonna' upload the rest until it's ready, but I wanted to show off at least this splash page I did to start it off, since it took two whole days to make. Consider it a sneak peek. I'm also applying to get into the PokéStory Zine (fingers crossed!), so I figured it would be good to go all out so I'd have something hopefully impressive and Pokémon-related to show them. If I manage to get in, I'll probably put this comic on hold until I finish something for that (I already have an idea in mind), so this might be the only page I finish for the next little while.

Gormongous Posted August 21, 2013 Yeah, it has a gorgeous old-manga feel to it. I love it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arthur Posted August 21, 2013 Here is something I drew for a zine I am making. They'll hopefully be available soon through GamerClaw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigJKO Posted August 22, 2013 In the interest of video game drawing, I drew one of Windosill. Amazing little game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UltimateHurl Posted August 22, 2013 Love the zine art! That Pokemon one looks great Jon: I think we need to start a collective art tumblr. The topic: paintings of every one of our Steam games! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thestalkinghead Posted August 22, 2013 Love the zine art! That Pokemon one looks great Jon: I think we need to start a collective art tumblr. The topic: paintings of every one of our Steam games! that would be an epic project Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miffy495 Posted August 24, 2013 Awesome! That blog is taking off fast! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UltimateHurl Posted August 24, 2013 Well done tegan, well deserved too Thestalkinghead: I don't suggest it lightly, I am a sucker for the Steam sales and have way too many games. Jon's success with pointandclicking.com is inspiring me though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted August 24, 2013 I love the idea of drawing a thing for each of my Steam games, so I'm going to do that starting tomorrow. One game per day, probably. Maybe more, who knows. I'm going to share it here for everyone to laugh at (because I am a shit artist - I may have some latent talent that I'm unaware of, but I have no skill to make that talent shine). It will be the worst experience of all of our lives. But over time I'll get better! Yeah! Hah! Maybe posting this here will actually force me to take action instead of Never Doing Anything like I usually do. In all likelihood I will continue to be lazy, but maybe knowing that my laziness will be my shame in this thread henceforth will motivate me to at least try this time!

Apelsin Posted August 24, 2013 I love the idea as well. And I guess it'll make me use my wacom again as I don't have access to any scanner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Laxan Posted August 25, 2013 During a Pikmin 2 multiplayer session (which was rad), a friend (who infrequently posts here as Hexans) was messing around on my tablet and this was made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gormongous Posted August 26, 2013 Game 3: Alpha Protocol (I have not yet played this) Totally not Alpha Protocol. The sane answer is always at the apex of the dialogue-choice triangle. Maybe "punch" is the sane answer this time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laxan Posted August 26, 2013 That last one can probably be used for the Tropico series too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
