Description
Hmm...what to say...i really meant to post this before the end of the summer, but eh..im only about 4 days late!
Finally this maybe the most creative thing i've drawn seeing as how the setting for everything else ive drawn was kinda limited to wire-poles and city scapes (which are good as well.)
The composition was really driving me nuts in the beginning. I started with drawing the kid in the very front and moved my way backwards through the crowd on the left hand side, and the last thing i drew were the weird hook-like hilltops.
Once i got the main angle, the rest was just a matter of colouring and inking in the crowd.
(P.S: look at the people near the back! They're just beige coloured spheres with green dots!) Also, im not sure if the "logo" here kinda ruins the balance of the image but you know me, i have to title everything!

Another of your pictures I just love.
I get such a kick out of the colors and the misty look to the background, and everything that's going on in the foreground! Gotta love the facial expressions!

This is an awesome picture, it's really obvious how much work went into it. But everyone having green eyes is freaking me out! Like...zombies, or a large inbred family.
But I'm sure there's a story there.

ha ha ha! maybe because whatever they're looking at is green in colour? i dunno!
i wish i had this deep philosophical reason for why everyones eyes are green but i just did it cause i thought it would look cool and plus its kinda creepy!
thanks for the comment thingy!

whoops!
sorry, i DID type that last night before going to bed but yes...artistic ability iISNT inherited, but learned and gained over time and hard work.
I hate people who say: "ohh i knew i would be drawing since the day i was born!"
and usually when you look at their stuff it isnt all that great for someone whos implied drawing their whole life.
Art is more than just hard work alone cause i've meet some people who try their hardest and spend ALOT of time working but just never get anywhere...cause its more than just hard work that'll make someone talented i guess...i think art has to do with detication and individual style. its not enough to draw good, but to stand out as well, cause you anyone can be GOOD, but if your stuff looks just like the next guy trying to do the WOG style, then your not really trying to define yourself individually. (okay prove me wrong if you think im full of shit.)
and i shouldnt be talking all big right now.....cause well im one to talk,
although i know i draw GOOD....compared to all the other amazing artists out there, im NOTHING special.
so thats just something i gotta improve on i guess.
P.S: change your avatar jackass!

Shit I forgot you even existed, much less checked up on you. Some thoughts:
- Everybody has green eyes, but no "easter egg" red eyed monster (person) or anything cliche? I may be over-reacting/analysing, but it gives me the impression you're getting serious when it comes to art (not that you weren't before, but I remember when you would put scattered areas of interest everywhere).
- Nice to see headphones again -- were they based on anything?
- Character designs: particularly the black haired kid and the kid looking off to the right (behind the one with the tie) -- were they based on prior art pieces or not?
- The guy wearing the 'sorting hat' -- I like how it matches the background landscape.
- The guy at the 'top left' looks like he's about to fall over, no matter how I imagine his body.
- All the people in the foreground have 2-D bodies.

Ethereal-Mind In reply to pureghetto [2004-10-13 00:38:40 +0000 UTC]
ha ha!! there you are!! i actually forgot you actually go on this damn thing but yes...
no red eyes, cause i think its waaay to cliche to like do everything green and add one tiny red thing for contrast, which is such a giveaway so no no red eyes.
And trust me, im ALWAYS serious when it comes to art, like very serious! but yeah compared to before where i would slack off and manage 1 page a MONTH is a huge diffrence from before.
Headphones are based on two things, the ones i have at home, (i think you saw them) and Yoh's headphones from Shaman King.
umm..most of the characters in theis piece arent based on anything specific from the past except for the headphones guy who resembles Kaitchi, and the kid at the very front who resembles Eko. (the ones from my August comic)
the sorting hat guy was a sorta last minute decision and i wanted to change it but i realized i had inked at at the time too! (look i typed "at" twice!)
yes everyone is 2-D looking cause of my lack of persectival knoweldge....but im trying alot of new stuff with curvy angles and fish-eye styles....ill show you next time you come home again.
yup!
P.S: nice avatar jackass!

the person above is my older brother mike...yes, check out his page because unlike me, he never inherited the artistic side of our family, but check his page out anyways!
you wont not, not regret it!

hmm.. a harsh decisions for me now..
i like this drawing, except maybe the eyes scare me a bit..
but then.. I WANNA KEEP THE EKO.KAITCHI TOO!! >"<
though i kinda see Kaitchi & Eko here too.. or rather..
people who kinda resemble them.
btw, can i use ur last EK drawing for the club avatar?
ill try to make it look nice.. hehe..

Ethereal-Mind In reply to MakotoShinki [2004-09-19 03:57:37 +0000 UTC]
ehhh for sure you can use the last eko-kaitchi drawing for an avatar, and the new one you did for the club looks great! although why does the picture frame around only the hands? hmmmm....
This has nothing to do with the battery comic, i just wanted to do something sort of creative but yes, i guess i cant get away from drawing eko and kaitchi look-a-likes! especially eko's jacket/windbreaker cause its just so damn easy to draw!
and yes i know you'll make the club avatar thingy look good Makoto....or at least i HOPE so! ......no...you will.

Wow... The detail and movement here is just incredible... The spirals sort of draw you into the picture, at that. Your eyes follow the curves... And of course, you have to look at every one of those kids, to see what they look like. Fantastic work! Was this made with markers?
On an unrelated-yet-related note, for some reason, this looks like something that could go on a Korn or System of a Down shirt. Cool stuff.
