Most people here aren't even from my era, so most of you won't know who I am. I'm Matt Rhodes and I used to post here all the time. Nice to meet you. Anyway, here's the first computer painting I've been able to do for twelve months

horstenpeter · Posted: Thu May 23, 2002 2:46 pm

I remember you, though you likely don't remember me, and if you do, probably not in a very positive light

I don't really have anything helpful to say, other than that I still like your style.
Hope you find more time to post again!

missed your stuff (hope to see more soon)

cheers

what are you talking about man? You think we all went off and got lives while you were at school? You did start school, right?

Nice image, hotshot!

Sup matt. Long time no see. I hope we can see more of you. Alot of the regulars seem to spend there time on roundeye's forums nowadays, atmosphere is pretty fun.

How's school? Life?

I love the painting, I dont really have time to go into crits right now though....

Has it been a year? Seems like just a few months to me. Weird.

great to see you back matt. keep up the awesome work!!

Hey, Matt I though you died of lack of sleep or from paint fumes.

You must be liking it. A few friends of mine are attending ACAD and say it is challenging but totally worth it. I myself am applying to start in January, fingers crossed. The image looks good, the black lines like that are not your usual though. Hope to see more of you. I would like to hear your thoughts on school, drop me a line: [email protected]

Dude! Missed you (well, your art--I don't know you from Adam) too! I commented on this already at EK...but I didn't say enough there, so I comment again.

I like the impressionistic way you did the clouds, and the exuberant brushstrokes....

Sorry...I am too tired to give you any crits. Forgive my lame-arsed toadying.

AWESOME. Good to have you back. Get your brother back to work too, he's been almost as quiet as you.

Anthony · Posted: Thu May 23, 2002 5:32 pm

Hey there, welcome back. You seem to have improved in drawing and lost touch a tad with digital medium :] You gonna stick around now?

12 months???? bull shit i'm sure it hasn't been that long. BULL SHIT I TELL YOU. i DEMAND proof!!

Hi Isric,

Good to see and old face on the board! I think a lot of us are still here, but some of us are finding it hard to find the time to post regularly.

I love the pic BTW. The clouds are great, formed from all of those fresh brushstrokes, and things like the scratched Mech ID in the bottom right corner really make the image work. Well done, I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Icannon · Posted: Thu May 23, 2002 9:35 pm

looks great, dude

Catfish · Posted: Thu May 23, 2002 10:57 pm

Hmmm....looks good. It reminds me of Locke's work, although I can't figure out why...it doesn't really look anything like it.

S4Sb · Posted: Thu May 23, 2002 11:12 pm

Cool! This one looks a lot more dynamic than your older pics! Somehow you managed to make quite a progress without practice =)

tek9z · Posted: Thu May 23, 2002 11:26 pm

WELCOME BACK ISRIC!!

It�s very good to have you back here, I missed you and your pictures alot

Lovely painting, it has a great mood. There aren�t really any crits I can give. The guy and the dog are just too cool and funny

Hope to see alot more paintings of you soon!

Dryfire · Posted: Mon May 27, 2002 4:48 pm

hey man, great to see you posting again. I haven't posted anything in a while anyway, but hell its worth posting to welcome back isric =) nice seeing your style again

cdbeckman · Posted: Mon May 27, 2002 11:22 pm

Hey Isric! been a long fan of you and your style. You may remember me as duran... and you might not! Your art sticks out, more then likely a combination of your talent and distinct style. You've been sorely missed, I can assure you. Good to see you haven't lost any of your talent in your time away from us

Isric · Posted: Wed May 29, 2002 12:06 pm

thanks everyone for your help and compliments, it's really appreciated. It's good to see some of your names again!
I'll be posting a lot more now (not just pictures Creed

) so I look forward to seeing your images. Sorry I can't reply to all your comments, but I have read them all and have a response in my head for each one. Maybe before it's too late I'll get some time. Adios my old Muchachos
