@William: Thank you for the in depth analysis. I did not plan ahead when I painted that one and it was my first oil painting ever, so that explains all the weird stuff going on. Eventually I just abandoned it.

@Dizzy: Thanks man.

@GullRaDriel: I made you draw? Oh yes, I remember now. I have this inspiring effect on people when I threaten to break their hands. ^^

@NiteHackr: I'd play it!

Now... no post shall be without an image in a doodle thread. So here's the other one I made today after I left the PC in frustration about how little line control I have when using a tablet.

I've done this applying a trick I learned from watching Stephen Daniele doing live concept art for Shroud Of The Avatar. The idea is to do a few quick iterations of an image instead of keeping to modify the same one over and over. Just quickly slap down some free-hand perspective guides, then put a new sheet of paper on top and draw over what shines through from below. Very simple. Very efficient.

So this is a concept doodle for my next oil painting:

I'd love to play NiteHackr's text mock-up on a Smith Corona word processor. The portable version could run on a Speak & Spell.

Dennis, you're extremely talented. Does it take much time to finish these drawings?

That's pretty good Diz!

For those who know "Le Chat" from Geluck, he is stopping weekly publishing in our local newspapers.

They made a special newspaper for the event.

It's my contribution.

Good, good ! i like when doodles come into doodle threads. I may submit something new tomorrow !

So, who else will do the same ? Wait and see.

It's called the Pygmalion effect.

@William your doodle tell me so much about you. they are like a gatway into your head they are very diffrent to most of the others that are just mimics.
people pay good money for your type of stuff

Yours is really nice William!

I did another tonight, mouse & Paint Shop Pro again!

I disagree. Yes.

new 'doodle' (about 6 hours so it doesn't really qualify as a doodle anymore but meh)

I second that! Though I'd say Dizzy's images do show some character. Those three characters kind of have some personalities.

I agree man. I mean, its like, you know, we only use 10% of our brain, right? Humans could move things if they would learn to use the rest man. I mean, I estimated that I use, like, 20%, right... And I can see into the future. Dude, imagine what I could do with 50% man... It would be totally gnarly for sure!

Peace out and keep drawing, you guys are all ultra cool. Stick it to The Man!

Just before I delete it
