El Capitan' Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 I, though a mighty fine bucaneer such as many of ye fine fellows here, happen to have takin' a fancy to drawin'. Any of you cutthroats abroad have any skills with the common pen & paper? Or maybe ye have another trade worthy of boast! Explain yerselves here all ye bucaneers of the pub. I be wantin' to hear these abilities of yourn'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadeye Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Some say I have a bit of skill when it comes to pencil and paper. I learned very young to draw by readin comic books and graphic novels and the like. I went ot the Art Institute of Dallas for 2 years and was almost picked up by DC comics a few years ago to apprentice.... What exactly are ye lookin for? - 10 Fathoms Deep on the Road to Hell... Yo Ho Ho and a Bottle of Rum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Capitan' Posted December 6, 2005 Author Share Posted December 6, 2005 ya be readin' me th' wrong way my mateys. I only meant good converse. I be a fancien' the fine arts me'self. Bein' on the verge of 18, I've gotta a barrel o' options ahead o' me. But I was wonderin' if I weren't the only pencil & paper bucaneer in this pub. We all be havin' a fancy in another thing er' two. No sense in not tellin' what they may be, aye? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gigi Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 I've been drawing for all my life, got a two degree in fine art and am working on my BA. I also like to write, but haven't had much time for it lately. My avatar is a warped picture of a painting I did a couple years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Handed Jill Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 I've been drawing since I was six years old. Minored in art back in the day before computer graphics (WAY before computer graphics.) I had a small business during the 80's where I did clothing design, book illustrations, etc. (I did a whole series of t-shirts for Neil Young, his wife, manager, band mates, roadies, etc.) Also designed the graphics for an airplane and attendant team shirts for one of the Reno Air Shows. I admit I've gotten rusty - haven't had a lot of time to draw lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego Santana de la Vega Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Laddy, thar be a stack o them graphic artists about within this here rightly pub. I in fact was an art major but found it way too competitive so I went in to sales. Nargh I just be kiddin ye. I actually changed my major from art to theology but ended up in energy and power resources with business and psychology of sports minors. I dream in black and white and thusly my drawings are just that, one color. Everything I ever attempted in the color spectrum looked like a third graders paint by numbers painting so I don't paint. I draw rarely now but from time to time the basic skills and depth perseptions and point of views are still there if needed. Again to ye welcome to the pub! Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Capitan' Posted December 7, 2005 Author Share Posted December 7, 2005 I me'self be a huge fan o' the traditional arts. I actually been workin' on a few pieces fer me own pirate crew. I be more o' a character developin' artist. Ye be right about th' competition tho'. Not many a land lubber can make it big without goin' thro' a ruff time. I be willin' te do anythin tho' te get me ideas out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christine Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I used to draw, but then just lost interest. My sister kept it up more and is really good with it. Talent most likely came from our father. He draws some really good stuff. He was offered to work for Disney, but turned it down. He said he didn't want to have to live in LA. We all thought he was nuts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Matt Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 This is not anythin' t' do with yer drawin' mate, looks fine. Just wonderin' the the anime style is somethin' that people see takin' over, say, standard comic book style. If not what arrrrr yer thoughts on it? "It's Afghanistanimation!"

El Capitan' Posted December 10, 2005 Author Share Posted December 10, 2005 Well, that one be done entirely in pen. Not te boast, but tis a dangerous task te be drawin' in pen. One big mistake an' it's all over. Yer right though Mad Matt when ye say the anime style is very common, tis what I grew up with learnin' tho' can't say a hasn't tried new thing though. I may show a completed computy drawin' of em'. Almost done with et. :) But I want te see some others werk as well. I kno' I not be the only bucaneer with some skill.
