...and here they are.


Raven


Flea


Shadow Cat (this one sucks)


MA-RAUD-ER! (this one sucks too)

They're actually ok. You just got the proportions wrong.

That's why I like that one I did of the Flea, I got the proportions right and I drew the legs right! w0000t!

lol, I doodle 'mechs in all my notebooks. I've a got beautiful Hunchie torso in one... without any legs at all. They're teh hardest part to draw, and it drives me crazy 'cuz they're like half the 'Mech's hieght and the end up looking UGLY.

oh yeah, had a Mad Cat on the side of PC for a while too. How'd it get there? looooong story.

I've got colored in TROs...that count? Probably an MB or 2 of em

i had a cool raven drawn on one of my notebooks, i had everything right too, maybe if i find it ill upload, but i doubt it, i tend to burn all my school stuff on the last day of school... no im not crazy we all do it... well maybe a little whacking but not crazy

:: does ritual dance around burning books ::

When I graduated high school, I didn't just burn my books; I ripped them to shreds, put those shreds into a shredder, then threw the shredder shredded shreds into a bonfire. It was a very liberating experience, I tell you. Makes me wish I could draw . . .

Not exactly the best hand drawn pictures out there... but i'm pretty sure its much much better than what i could draw

Sorry to barge in an Hijack the thread, but when you say "Drawings" or "Paint" (as in MSPaint) I just can't resist...
(Something comes after the pic, and it's not another pic).
This is Mine, see if it resembles anything you know of...



Ok, Akrin, those are not bad, proportions could use some work, and try to stay away from wooden pencils when drawing (EXCEPT for when you are shading, the wider point makes shading look better, and just that much easier).

Look at some round objects with some details on them, and see how the details "morph" when moving to the rear of of a curved plain, this will help with making the cockpit windshield look better on the RAVEN (You are on the right track with it).
With it's angle, run the lowest curve of the windshield, closest to the nose, parallel to the circles edge on the nose, and you have the depth change. With that said, adjust the top curve to do the same thing. Once that is done, you've got it made for that part.

Experiment with details. I find that making my own details for mechs makes drawing them that much more enjoyable.

If you want to make your drawings have the "nice" look that my Warhammer does, draw front views and then side-veiws, and you'll eventually be able to lay down the law with angled views.

This is how I started, and with what I see in those drawings, you have a very HIGH potential to become a really really good artist. If you make a portfolio, those are good to put in to show anyone and everyone how you started drawing, and how now that you're drawings are better than even Microsofts concept artists.

Just because you saw mine, does NOT give you the right to GIVE UP, got that. Print it up if you want to. There's a few more in the MekTek art gallery (Drawings section) that you can print up if you want some other "poses" for mechs to use.

I do not want this to discourage you, too many people that I show my art to end up giving up on even stick figures, ticks me off.

And to be honest, I like how you've done those, I can't draw a Raven worth a damn, lol.

That is

Death Match you are teh l33t artist

*bows*

What the hell.... AWESOME drawing.

Warhammer or Rifleman... not because you don't draw clearly... but i'm not BT fanatic.

Oh jesus, don't bow.

Read the message I edited in under the pic.

Practice makes perfect, it's true, there's a few hints on how you can take some major steps to the Warhammer I posted, and how not to be discouraged, I don't like it when people give up on art because they see someone else drew something better than them, pisses me off even more when they stopped because of my drawings.


I would like to be a concept artist for a game company some day, perhaps even a Comic Book artist.

It says Warhammer at the bottom of the pic.

Drat shouldn't have posted while pic is half done.

I once love drawing pictures when i was in primary school... dunno what really happened. My love for drawing simply... disappeard. Or that my parents didn't like what i draw at the time

Had too many 'old friends' at the time... the reason i'm acting / drawing weirdly when i was young

But its good to know my daughter likes to draw alot. And even have tantrums if she misses an Art Attack show. Hope she likes the art better than i do.

Good thing about it too is that... she stay away from me and my computer most of the time

I learned not to give a damn about if my parents liked or hated what I drew.

They haven't been able to stop me from drawing naked women.

I've given up on any drawing besides stick figures I just don't have a steady enough hand or something, I always make a squiggly line....it's horrible....my stick figure's head is more like a pumpkin for Pete's sake....the hair just tops it off and gives it a stem! It's sad really....



oh...sorry, unresolved childhood issues....

Anyway, I can't draw worth crap. Though, I'm getting pretty good at making 2d computer graphics....

Oh yes....and I'd 0wn you all at tracing

*Copy*
*Save*
*Begin airbrushing*

*twacks DeathMatch and steals his drawing abilities*

With DM's artistic skill and Zephyr's modeling skills, I shall RULE THE ARTISTIC WORLD!! MUHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!


Heh, I'm kind of a "jack of all trades and master of none." I can do a lot of stuff competently, but I don't excel in any one area. Mostly lack of any patience whatsoever, I think, but never can churn out anything *extraordinary.* Slooo-o-o-o-wly getting better, though.

Nice work, DM!

i can draw not witha pencil though but witht he computer pencil, i havea drawing pad i have been practicing and i have been pretty good with it. i do some pixel art myself, i might get around to uplading something if i feel up to it

a WIP, hopefully this does it justice

Lol, it wasn't just the naked 'stick women' that my parents were pretty concerned... but the thought baloons. ROFL.
