This is some 5 year old garbage from year 2000. I dare you to show the most horrible thing you've ever been proud of. This was not done in 20min, that would almost remove the joke. I got back into painting (ahem) somewhere in 2003 so that's why I still suck almost as bad.

Freebooter, this ones is dedicated to you. Perish!

This is like the second oldest digital work I've made... from April 2004. I'm somewhat out of your league, guys.

Mikko K, you made me a happy late-teenager. Looking at that I don't feel like I'm a completely lost cause...

I believe that this was either the first or one of the first things I ever posted here. If I remember correctly, both Spooge and Fred were very nice and did paintovers for me. I've learned so much here, it blows my mind! Very Happy

Yep... April, 1994 done in CorelDRAW! just before I started using Photoshop. Fortunately I'm too old to be embarrassed...

You would never guess I'd end up being a professional 3D lighter:

3D Studio 1.01 (not Max), Autodesk Animator for textures. This would be 1994-5, right before I switched to Hash A:M. Done on a 386 at 40 MHz.

Here's a mouse-drawn 2D piece from the same era:

Went through some more oldies. I think I'm going to go get a chemical lobotomy or something to forget I ever made that stuff.

anyway, here's another one, from 2000.

so deep!

2000

I remember when I made this one that everyone at my anime art board thought I was the best landscape artist ever. Thankfully, I grew out of that. *shudders*

Grarrrr!

not worst or the oldest, but possibly the worst thing that I've ever been proud of. When I did this in 1999 when I was 12, I thought it was photographic. I'd used 4 layers and transparency after all.

It all began with this one...right here on Sijun:

Thanks for the help folks!

Francis · Posted: Mon Feb 21, 2005 7:15 pm

The disturbing thing is I recognize some of these pieces! Hm, been around here a while I guess...

Check it out, I found some stuff that I did *before* I got into the game industry. Pretty corny...
