have a present

Post by icarus »

done in MS paint, because i haven't got my scanner where i am and didn't feel like cluttering tegaki or anything along those lines.

i meant to do peanut as well, but it's late and i'm kind of tired. so for now, only grape.

Considering that's MS paint, I'm afraid of the sheer awesome that will be your non MS paint work.
How are all you guys doing, huh? Guys?.......guys?

velcome.

ms paint is really just a matter of patience with the dump bucket and mixing a basic lighter/darker colour. that, and getting the mouse to obey your hand in what you want it to do.

i usually prefer pens/markers/real media etc. but like i said...no scanner about.

also you can see my art if you click the link in my sig cause that's my comic. but i don't mean to sound like i'm just trying to get hits/readers...

I first saw this, and my brain processed, "Blimey! This chaps a splendid artist!"

Then I read the whole "Done in MS paint" thing, and I shat bricks.

I can barely handle a mouse let alone dish out magic like this. Jolly good show, lad!

thanks everybody...and man, jakjak, if you did your icon in ms paint you'll have my butt kicked in...moments, at most.

it probably helps a *lot* that i use a digital mouse. a trackball would make those lines so wobbly it'd drive me nuts. but again. i'd rather have been able to use pen and paper, but i'm not at all sure where the scanner is.

Niiiice. I can't believe how neat you've got that using a mouse and Paint. I can't achieve that level of tidiness even using a graphics tablet. :O

Well then everyones already given the positive praise I would have given. Nice art, and all but I'm going to have to put on a Tribly hat, and point out the flaws now.

*Evil villain laughter!*

Well I could attack the easy stuff.. like say the sketchiness, and the proportions but I won't. What's bugging me is.....Exactly when did Grape develop a gut that size? Skinny everywhere else too.. esh, this Nipping life style has indeed lead her down a horrible physical health I tell you!

Or then again the fact she hasn't gained fat elsewhere could mean....*tilts his head*... the way she's holding it.....
...
...
...
*Face palms*
Ok turning the analyzing aspect of my brain freaking off now. Too early for such lines of thought.


But seriously, silliness aside, Nice fan art yes. Well drawn, twice so for MS-Paint, much better then anything I could possibly do. Thumbs up, and all that.

i know
i'm a stalker like that
well not really
i also started reading inhuman like three years ago
and i remember that you had to explain to me over msn or something that it wasn't a case of mps, really, but more of schizophrenia. which was why he kind of took antipsychotics there.
i actually used to think it was a sci-fi supernatural comic or something.
wahahaha boy i was slow back then.

and yeah i dunno i haven't really checked out the dmfa forums in a long while.
i kind of got turned off it with that deebs' assistant person or whatever they're called now because they changed their name something like four times.
but yeah he annoyed me. a lot.
and i made a tasteless joke about the hollows when amber or someone said they're like vegetables and for some reason i have this weird thing where i avoid people i've messed up with or places i've messed up in like the plague
it can't really be healthy.

anyway yeah i'd say a lot of the dmfa forums really deserve some sass.
-really- deserve some sass.
i mean honestly i wasn't surprised one bit when i found out amber stopped looking at the forums.
I was going to make a joke but then I did.

yeah, me neither. surprised, i mean.

and ugh that deebs person...that was one of them who amber gave me green-light to heckle, but once she went on forum-break i decided to tone it down least the other mods have to deal with the drama. plus, zina's better at being nasty to troublemakers than i'll ever be. and loads of fun to watch the fireworks after.

zina's awesome.
i want to mention how funny she is every time she makes me laugh
but it would be a bit weird saying she's funny after every post she makes.

another present...though kind of minor.

grape is getting a cameo is a stuffed animal in my own comic. nothing major, but i promise, it's grape.
(permalink is here, it's page 310 on the comic site.)

another grape-plush-cameo is coming for page 311, but that's next week. and hopefully i'll have something better by then anyway, since i've a loooong plane flight between now and then.
