Description It's time for the old to be replaced by the new.

I'm still taking a break from Internet and such, but considering how many there are who have looked forwards to this I decided to upload it now anyway.

Hopefully, some of you recognise the one to the left by now, since that is Zhenia - my old computer's human form - and who is the one to the right then?
Well, quite obviously it's Kazimir, my new computer and the one I am currently using.

He looks kinda like a wannabe rocker or something, yes, since Zhenia is pretty wannabe cool Or... I guess both are pretty wannabe cool, and that suits them.
At first, I had considered updating Zhenia's design because he looks more like a character than a computer, but I decided not to in the end, since he's put on the shelf anyway. I did, on the other hand, put some more effort behind designing Kazimir, even if I'm probably the only one who can tell

He's smaller than Zhenia, yes, and much shinier and stylish.
I like him ^_^
The background, on the other hand, looks somewhat like the Animus 2.0 (save the numbers and all) which wasn't really intended, but when I wanted something endless, sparkly and pretty that's what my brain went for I guess

So.
This was the picture I decided to draw to introduce my new computer, yes, as well as bid a very dear farewell to my old one.
Which is also why Zhenia was drawn on Zhenia - the very last thing I did on that computer actually, before putting it away - and Kazimir (as well as the background) was done on Kazimir.
It felt like a nice idea at the time, and I still think that it was.

Anyhowsies.
Here he is people! My new computer's human form
It's almost funny how many there are who have been interested in seeing him, since... well... it's my computer x'D What kind of attention does a computer normally get?

Ah well.
I guess he's just an attention whore.
Like Zhenia
And me

Oh great. I just clicked this one among the thumbnails, because it looked shiny and unusual and it caught my attention. Then the meaning hit me the moment I saw it in normal size and read the name for it. I nearly started to cry - and my eyes are still stinging.
Once again you convinced me that the simplest of gestures can be the most powerful. I couldn't think of anything better than that casual greeting of these two - it's as if they met only that one moment in time, yet it seems to me Zhenia leaves you to Kazimir's care with full trust. And somehow, him leaving like this, seemingly okay or at least resigned about it, has greater impact on me than any more dramatic depiction you could draw.
For me, this picture is complex in its (relative) simplicity, full of meanings that far exceed the one situation you depict.
Which means a wonderful piece of art of course, and a fav.

Lienwyn In reply to Lawenta [2010-04-24 08:36:15 +0000 UTC]

I was actually aiming for that simple yet very, very effective way to portray what actually happened, because... well... it was dramatic for me, but rather simple in real life But I still wanted to give Zhenia a good send off - and it seems that many of my watchers appreciated it - but not make it overly dramatic because he might be an attention whore, but far too laid back x'D
So I settled for this, because the pose was both promising, expressive and sad... in a perfect mix

Zhenia WAS a bit reluctant, I'd say, but I still use him from time to time... I dragged him out the other day when I needed an extra computer and was left sitting with him the rest of the night, just because his keyboard is so comfortable x'D
So he's definitely not giving up the struggle for my attention, even if he accepts being the less used computer at the moment

Thank you for liking it anyway

Lawenta In reply to Lienwyn [2010-04-24 10:42:20 +0000 UTC]

I couldn't agree more.

Oh, so he doesn't give up that easily, right? An extra computer can always come in handy after all... and from one point of view he now has more free time

It's your fault I like it
Okay, now really, you're most welcome

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Lienwyn In reply to Lawenta [2010-04-24 17:56:31 +0000 UTC]

He doesn't give up at all, I'd say x'D
But yeah, it's very handy. The reason I used him was because a friend was here to study and needed a computer, so she got to take Kazimir - who's less of a bitch about who gets to use him x'D - and I took Zhenia.

I can live with that

What was wrong with Zhenia that you had to put him away? I'm really gonna miss him.

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Lienwyn In reply to All-These-Kiwis [2010-03-27 10:20:53 +0000 UTC]

He is over five years old and a laptop They NEVER last that long in normal cases.
He still works though, surprisingly well, but he's a bit slow, I can't update certain things and... yeah. Technology is moving too fast and I couldn't really get any of the new programmes because he was too old
So I chose to buy a new one...

But he's actually standing right beside me at the moment, since I've been playing some of my older games
So I'm never going to let him be forgotten, be sure of that

I like the Matrixy-ness.

They both look cool in their own way.

I like the green accents on Kazimir and the details on the bottom of Zhenia's shoe..I like random things apparently.

Thank you
Although the Matrix is black to me x'D

Definitely... and I am glad that they are so different. It makes it a lot more fun for me

But random things are fun, so I won't hold it against you

I long to see it too
Then again... I also ran into the little question if I was going to draw my old or new computer >_>
It will be easier with Zhenia, without any doubt, but I'm technically not using him anymore x'D

Jontamar In reply to Lienwyn [2010-04-04 12:23:49 +0000 UTC]


ah, I was wondering about how you would do that. But.. I don't know if Athocks met the new dude so many times? Lol, to tell the trouth, I'm not using Athocks as often anymore either, so you can calmly see it as a nostalgia-project ;__; I am so afraid I'll crash him, so I mostly use Vhilliam for everything now..;;;XD Zhenia is a good choice, I think ^u^

Lienwyn In reply to Jontamar [2010-04-07 10:12:21 +0000 UTC]

Aww... that's a shame...

But yeah, it seems like it will be a nostalgia project, since I will be using Zhenia
It will be easier to get them all together, I think, since he's such a social bastard x'D

But Kazimir looks fun, too!
Even though I think he'd look better with some chin-fur.
But maybe that's just me... >__>

I think that we all will

And Kazimir is fun Very obedient compared to Zhenia, but somewhat strange too x'D We don't always think the same, him and I...

And... chin-fur? What's chin-fur?

And I hope that there will be more Kazimir too, since I love drawing his hair

Verdokai [2010-02-13 07:32:21 +0000 UTC]

I STILL THINK THOSE GLASSES-*gets shot*

I actually like Kazimir's design more than Zhenia's. Kazimir looks like the sort of person with whom you could have a conversation without him striking a pose for the camera
And I really like the way he's backlit!

Lienwyn In reply to Verdokai [2010-03-01 00:39:28 +0000 UTC]

Zhenia doesn't strike poses
But yeah, yeah, you can think so if you want to

I really like Kazimir though... he's a nice computer ^_^

But I kinda want to draw the two of them again... because I can't just leave it be, I guess

Awww it is sad that Zhenia has to leave he was mega sexy, though he will not be forgotten. Kazimir is also uber sexy and I like the way that he look futuristic but in style like most computers are these days. The background is way cool too, I really like how you pulled that off.
