Description EDIT: ...I don't even know what to say. This has gotten more views/favorites in a few hours than most of my other stuff combined. I thought ponies would get me noticed, but wow, you guys are amazing. Thank you. YEAH, YOU.


FINALLY, I actually did some art this summer, told you I would... But yeah, this. I mostly did it as warm up, to get into the groove. It's just a joke, something I thought of a while back. If you don't know what Sierpinski's Triangle is, I would suggest looking it up, otherwise this makes even less sense.

Okay, three things. Firstly: why did nobody tell me how awesome/fun cel shading is?! Secondly: I think I might use this art style more. Thirdly: I finally gave in and made a custom brush, and it's pretty swank; I did this whole piece with that brush, the soft eraser, and the paint bucket a couple times. Woo.


Hooray for math, art, AND video games!
...
I'm such a nerd.

Link: Well this is odd.
Ganondorf: I thought there were only three.
Link: There are only three. At least that's what the legend said.
Ganondorf: I guess they were wrong then.
Link: Looks like it.
Ganondorf: So which one is the Triforce of power?
Link: Beats me.
Ganondorf: Uh... I guess it's the top group of triangles?
Link: You can try it I guess. I honestly have no idea.

Afterwords, They figure at its an Infinityforce of power.

And heres the kicker... each one separates into 8 shards hidden in 8 different places in eight different dimensions each having their own final boss.

Happy hunting HERO

I was just thinking geometry-wise, it would divide up into multiples of three; haven't played much of the older ones.

Just one that I know of, was handed some information about it at BronyCon. The Brony Fan Fair should be going on in Austin next fall, and seems to be fairly large.

Oh, yeah. Figured that was the case. That's why *whips off sunglasses* I USE AN IPAD. I can actually type on it, so auto-correct is no more.

Ok, I'll go buy a 6x8' sheet of plywood, you're in charge of the .35mm mechanical pencils.

Sheilakh In reply to ticoun [2012-06-18 18:27:25 +0000 UTC]

Something smoother than plywood would be better, but that could work. The smallest diameter I could find is .2mm, which should be adequate.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ticoun In reply to Sheilakh [2012-06-18 18:57:27 +0000 UTC]

Then maybe a foamcore board would be better. .2mm is even better! I have a .18mm technical pen, I just need to ink it up!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Sheilakh In reply to ticoun [2012-06-18 20:28:20 +0000 UTC]

The foamcore would be much better... At the smallest scales we could try using a needle to etch the surface, but I can't think of any way to go smaller without laboratory level equipment.
