Sijun Forums :: View topic - question for green monkey artists and my very first mech

Jezebel · Posted: Mon May 14, 2001 10:30 pm

A pretty lengthy message but I hope everyone reads it!

Ok, well first off I want to say that I'm working on a site that I think most people here will like. I'm not going to go into any major details yet, but one of the aspects of the site is sort of "draw club" like... except hopefully I can hand out prizes. Not sure yet, so calm down

I'm going to need various images based on different themes from artists so I figured it would be cool to make use of some of the ones we already have and then start a new one as well.

Anybody that has a green monkey, a mech from the mech thread, a gas mask, a super hero or any other themed thread we've done and you'd like to have it displayed on my site I'd appreciate it if you'd e-mail me. Just send me a link to the image, your name, a webpage if you have one and anything else you might find important

I'd also like image submissions for a couple of other themes if anyone has them or wants to do them. Feel free to post them here with the same information. I'll be working on mine as well... when I'm not working on my site

Here are three to choose from, take your pick: (thanks to 500 themes folks here!)

a sacred place
a roman priestess
space ship beaming up a moose in the middle of the night

Here's my mech for the mech thread... I never quite finished it

And first off I want to say this isn't my design, it was done purely for practice with a new coloring technique and drawing mechanical shapes. I'm totally stuck in organic mode so I had to whip out some of my boyfriend's old mech book for help. Anyway... hope you all enjoy:

Sorry for the long message!!

Beth

Im still pissed about the green monkey...That started out as a bet between me and loki and he lost and was suposed to get FLAMED like hell for starting a post that didnt have a pic or a point to it.

BUUUUT...it was fun anyway hehe..all is cool
I like your Idea Jezy...um...I still gata draw a better green monkey though..

Ideas.

Draw Your Handle.. [(Ex) Milkman, Blitz, Rinaldo.] kinda your mascot

Political Cartoon

Lord of the Rings pic

Your Favoret Playmate....oh sorry =P

Jezebel · Posted: Mon May 14, 2001 11:18 pm

Blitz - Well, if you don't feel like re-drawing a monkey just yet try something from one of those other themes I listed. I tried to choose things that would have a little something for everyone.

Oh, and here are the lines for those curious:

And here's another mech from the same book I drew out. Experimenting with lines and stuff

Themes again are:

a sacred place
a roman priestess
space ship beaming up a moose in the middle of the night

I think they should be interesting to do... you gotta love that moose one!

Hehe.... i like the idea.... poor moose, but i wanna do it.

A The lord of the rings pic is a great idea in my opinion. I think that would be a great theme!

Anyway, I'll give you a link when my pic is all done!

TheMilkMan · Posted: Tue May 15, 2001 12:27 am

Damn jez very cool....

pixualize · Posted: Tue May 15, 2001 1:08 am

Cool Mechs Jez!

This is a great idea!

I couldn't resist! I just had to do the moose!

Collosimo · Posted: Tue May 15, 2001 3:39 am

LOL, here's my Moose!

hehe

I had lots of fun, took me half an hour and a bit more...

Pixualize that looks like BULLWINKLE! LOL hahaha, I'm pissing myself sorry ppl... make a moose pic of your own, and you'll see the lighter side of it!

Gimbal8 · Posted: Tue May 15, 2001 5:59 am

Cool Jezebel. I think I'm going to have a shot at the moose or mech one tonight when I get home.

Or maybe green monkey aliens dressed in roman priestess garb beaming up a moose mech from a sacred place...nah, that would be a bit much. I'll stick with the moose one methinks.

Staff Sarge · Posted: Tue May 15, 2001 6:37 am

Well, here's my shot. Quite sloppy & messy (~45min scetch) and lot's of mistakes but what the heck:

MooOO00!! (I think they sound like that)

[realism]
Note how realistically the bugs gather around the bright light.
[/realism]

edit: ------
I wasn't satisfied with my moose; added more detail (mainly to the ship) and tried to fix lighting. It's still sloppy (no surprise).

Oh, the permission mumbo-jumbo: yes, you may do anything you want with this one (except remove/modify/hide the moose of course).

These moose pictures are really funny, hehehe... poor littles guys

I think I'm doing the priestess next

Jezebel · Posted: Tue May 15, 2001 8:13 am

I just want to make sure that everyone who is posting these images is ok with me putting them on my site. I want to make sure I have permission.

Any older images like green monkeys and mechs and stuff can be e-mailed ( [email protected] ) to me, unless it's new. There's no reason to repeat what's already been done

Those moose pics are great everyone! This was really fun to do! Can you see a movie cross between Bullwinkle and Fire in the Sky:

Moose: "Nothin' up my....sleeves"

Rocky:"Awww that trick never works!"

Jez! - Post away! I made this especially for you.

i like collosimos the best so far.. hehe it rocks... isnt very dynamic but has a cool movie poster type thing to it.. reminds me of the JAWS posters for some reason

zero21 · Posted: Tue May 15, 2001 7:39 pm

Up close,
it is a little bigger,
Don't you think harold?

(Very quick and nasty but wanted to get in on while I thought of it)

Collosimo · Posted: Tue May 15, 2001 9:15 pm

LOL, thts great.. must be little aliens.. like smurfs or something... Hey rocky! How the **** do we get Bullwinkle outta our spaceship?

Shardik: Thx, Yeah not very dynamic I agree. It was just a half an hour effort..

Jezebel · Posted: Wed May 16, 2001 5:49 am

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww yeah! I got a synj moose!

All these moose images are so funny. Each one is great in it's own unique way. Thanks for posting them everyone. I can't wait to get them on my site. The ones responding to my threads are helping me out SO much and I really appreciate it.

Well, I personally have done 2 out of the 3 themes listed and I'm about to start a 3rd. A sacred place. This will probably be the hardest for me. *grumbles* But it will be good practice.

Awetopsy · Posted: Wed May 16, 2001 9:51 am

metalfan · Posted: Wed May 16, 2001 1:23 pm

Hey Jez, excellent thread.. hope you're in a happier mood today.

See ya!

neebhore · Posted: Wed May 16, 2001 1:57 pm

Here's my feeble attempt...

Few perspective problems, and lack of detail, but i'm still new to this sort of thing, and it only took me an hour...not sure if everyone will get it.

[edit] buggered up my link
