Paintball Drawing(s)

[OysterBoy]

Ok, I decided to post up one of my drawings. Its fairly straight forward, not finished tweeking the 'spyder'/'timmy' on the 'bunkette'. Any comments are apreciated. The first link is the white and black one (hard to see), the second one is solarized / inverted, which is easier to see..

[OysterBoy]

wow, that means quite a bit coming from you heather..

[The Frymarker]

You're welcome, everyone has to start some where, and your work looks great, keep pluggin away.

The more you practice the better you get, take from me and 20 years worth of experience!!!

Never give up, no matter what anyone says.

People, would say my artwork, was well lets just say, it needed a lot of help!

So keep at it, your doing a great job!


I just wanted to add a true story....


About 10 years ago I had gone to a Marvel Comic Book convention, in New York.

I had brought my portfolio with me. I really wanted to work for Disney Studios and animation.

A few cartoonists look at it, and critqued it. Some were a little harsh than others.

I came up to a table that had Greg and Tim Hildebrandt, famous illustration/cartoon artists. First I asked them to sign my shirt...which I still have that t-shirt today.

I asked if they could look at my portfolio, Greg just ignored me, he had probably had his full of portfolio presentations. So I walked away.

Tim Hildebrandt fought through the crowd of people and ask "May I see your portfolio". He then brought me back to his table. He looked over my work and said, "You're on your way! Someday you will be famous, never give up on your dreams, in life that is all you have.

At that moment I felt so honored that he would spend the time to lift my spirits, and I never forgot that.

And I hope that one day.....maybe I will be famous.

[OysterBoy]

Hmm, someone just approached me about buying it ($20 cdn). Awesome..

Thanks everyone for your comments, especially heather.

That story sounds quite 'inspirationa;', I feel somewhat like you must have, only to a much lesser extent (I'm assuming). I also have a few cartoons I've made (15 seconds) that I could probably post, they aren't very good (I forget the 'story' by the 355th frame.. lol)

...maybe I will be famous.

Well, I think you are good enough! When you're famous my "sketch" will be worth millions! Seriously, I think you do great work.

OysterBoy's not bad either.

The teacher at my school that does Jr High art used to work for Marvel Comics as an artist, he does amazing stuff. And I will get to have him next year .

And I hope that one day.....maybe I will be famous.

You already are in my books, and your work in marvelous. Well done and the best of luck in your future Heather.

As well to you Oysterboy, have a fun time and enjoy, no matter what troubles come your way.
