Okay, fine, it ain't perfectly unpublished. It kinda "flashed" in one topic. But that ain't the point. It took about one hour or so, kinda sketchy, but I like it. I am doing this to do my part in flooding the forum. Thought, I will do some more, since this is so old(I think it's about 5 hours by now

)

Njah, njah...

Sweet pic. I like it a lot. Very loose and a good use of colour.

Very cool. Reminds me of that image comic "The MAxx". Very moody pic and it lets your imagination play with it.. pretty neat.

Now that Chapel mentionned it, it DOES remind of the Maxx comic book also !
Nice work, very moody as said before and unique style, I really like it

Labrat: Nice, you have roots in the demo scene by any chance?

wierd..cool

frost: Nope, I don't. But I've seen my share of demoscene works, and to tell the truth. I got idea for that style from the OLD-SCHOOL pixel-by-pixel works, I don't know who, but someone had this "bubbly" way of building up the picture. I only saw one or two pictures of his work, and yesterday(technically speaking) I got the idea to try out it. That was the first picture in that style...

Hey I really like that colouring job indeed!

If you are still serious on messing with my drawings I'm game

It'd be an honor. As you may know I'm not that good though. ...Well just let me know then. Then I'll send you something and you can flood the forum once more.

...I'll check out the other chapel pics tomorrow.

He just made himself quite populair I think.

Time for bed now...Nite!

Thats probably a Made picture. He has a nice bubbly style. Wonder if he ever come here..

::Dino:: · Posted: Fri Dec 22, 2000 8:38 pm

Yay...RaRaRARAh...Flood the board. Great work, I love the expression in the brush strokes(especially the swirlies

) There is a lot of expression in the brush strokes--very moody, almost Van Gogh-ish if you don't mind me saying...Keep it up

WHOA!! I LOVE THAT STYLE!
Is there a name to that kind of style?
I mean.. the color and the way it's blended in the bottom. And the cool curvy shapes near the bottom!
impressive!

Sergenth · Posted: Fri Dec 22, 2000 9:08 pm

Hey, that is a really nice effect you made their. And I dunno if Made has stuff like that on his site... been a while since I surfed it

Here's Made's webpage...
http://made.planet-d.net/

Clarification: I didn't COPY Mades'(if that's the guy) style. I just got idea for this style from his works.

His "Bubbles" were a lot smaller and more subtle. I like hi-contrast so naturally I go and do the bubbles so big that you CAN'T miss them. And then again, I just got idea for the bubbles from him, rest is my trademarked style

.

Trance-R: Nice that you like the picture, as for the style. Go figure, "labubbles" ?-) It's my style, and far as I know there's no-one who's done pictures in that kind of style...

Frost · Posted: Sat Dec 23, 2000 9:15 am

Actually, it looks more like Antony/Pulse than Made.

Antony? Made?
Where could I find more images like these?

I like the bubble and the curly, yes.

anticz · Posted: Wed Dec 27, 2000 12:37 am

Your color sense KICKS ASS. Very strong color theory! Wish I could say something more worthwhile but I'm pretty stoked on this image. It's got a very dreamy quality. Nice minimal style.

Trance-R:

here are a few links:
Made's webpage
Antony's webpage (may not contain his older stuff which I referred to)
Antony's Design Company
GFXZone (contains a LOT of demo scene art)
Lazur's webpage
Chiparus.org (MANY cool scene gfx)

Of course, that's not to mention Danny, Joachim, and Micke who all brought their own style to the demo scene which you'll find here on this board.
