Yea.... I really shouldn't put watching Buffy higher on my priorities list than learning the spec for this exam. There's still a reasonable chunk of it I haven't even looked at in a year.
Hehe. Then again shouldn't someone be writing another 4000 words for a certain project

eh Tangent?
Kidding of course

Oh snap

You know, I actually forgot about that... :oops:

That ain't good, Tan'. Oh well, you got away with it so far, maybe they wont ask for it. My suggestion would be ask the teacher that set it if you have any work late, it doesn't directly like to the project so he/she wont suddenly remember it if he/she had forgotten. Then if they say nothing you can forget about it yourself

I however, am slagged. Can't avoid an exam.

A big hip hip horray for being in college, earning, and not having to pay anything towards rent, food or clothes

A big "gorramit" for being in college, having to do work, and getting the "disappointed in you" stare for going on Seibertron in class again

Tue Jan 08, 2008 2:20 pm

Um, YAY for getting fired and slowly failing courses!?

You're not failing, and you'll find a new job soon.
Just 'cause you're spending time on Seibertron instead of working, doesn't mean you're failing your course. If that were true I'd reeeeally be slagged!

Edit:
My line art/inking is almost finished ^^ just adding finishing touched that I couldn't add when it still had the pencil lines. Then onto scanning...

Well time to throw my two sticks in. You're all going down! Yahahahaaaaaaa!! Maybe not, I don't even know what one of my bots looks like, thank the lord for harsh silhouettes and the fact I know for fact that certain Autobots like hiding in cardboard boxes and obscuring themselves from sight.

I heard all Transformers do, and knowing that can confirm my picture of three cardboard boxes in the desert will surely win!

I do have one query though, and you'll have to excuse me cuz I'm an eejit, could someone advise the best size board for the pixel ratios? I'm a pure pen and ink man, so know nothing of these pixel things...

Wed Jan 09, 2008 9:58 am

I wanna see how much Grim gets he ego dented.

Also, who are the judges?

Jealousy is an ugly thing :grin:

In all seriousness this project is the best tf work i have ever done, even the generals in Grim's Army are gonna be surprised by the super coolness of my pics. I really applied myself to it, it is of the same standard as my college work of yester year.

Wed Jan 09, 2008 1:18 pm

So everyones gonna vote for themselves then? Thats gonna be a strange outcome...

Jealous Grim? HAH! Right, i can draw better than most art school students and ive never taken an art class in my life. Yes i am very jealous of having to be stuck inside a room for hours, drawing stuff i have no interest in and being told how to draw by someone with an over-inflated ego.

That or i could be stuck in your class too Grim.

Second response:

Wed Jan 09, 2008 1:28 pm

Sonray the way u talk about styuff u have zero info about and act like its the word of god is so damn funny.....dont ever change. :APPLAUSE:

I know thats why i do it. :-B

But on a serious note grim since it sounds like you really think i have no clue about this stuff i do actually know what im talking about as well, thats why i have a right to say it. Art is subjective, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that (thats why one artist be the name of Piero Manzoni canned his own **** and labeled it as "art" and sold it. Thus proving his point, and my current one) there are no set strict rules on "how to draw" or "what this should look like", or what art is. You dont need to go to school to learn that, you just have to have a free, open and a creative mind.

The only limits to art are peoples imaginations and the only rules that there are is what the people who have those imaginations allow themselves to be ruled by.

Theres no governing body over art that says everything has to look or be done a certain way. I think everyone will agree with me on this one. So next time, leave the attitude and attempted insults behind. I dont like being told that i have a god complex thank you very much, no matter how right i might be about something

.

I just speak basic common sense, and i dont agree with your stances on the matter that art should all be done in only one certain way, and you are only allowed to call yourself an artist if you have been to school for it and been given a piece of paper after your course "qualifying" you as an artist . That IMO is a load of old bollocks, as school never did anything for me yet im one of the smartest and most skilled people i know. And thats not just out of ego, ive been told this by everyone who knows me as well.

Im not trying to turn this into a flame war, just explaining myself thats all. Take it as you wish.
