19 ways to make an illustrator grind their teeth to bloody stumps


Not spotlighting one particular artist here, but this applies to them all. Funny as sh*t because everything here is so true.

One of the primary reasons I left Deviant Art (other than outright theft of my stuff) had to do with people always hitting me up to color their sh*t for them and without fail, it was like they were reading from a script..."I can't pay you now, but will pay you on the royalties I make on the book. Plus, it's great exposure for you. I use to get really p*ssed off because every time I opened my Inbox, it was more of the same request. It got old really fast.

I guess I'm lucky my lack of talent (or ability to promote myself) keeps the requests away from me.

Joe Madureira










I'm kicking myself for never giving Joe a shout out in this thread. We've talked about him a few times in other threads like Avenging Spider-Man. How To Draw and Art Plagiarism. But until now, he has never been in THIS thread. Well, I'm gonna give you guys a treat. These have been floating online for a long time, but in the off chance you've been living under a rock.....enjoy Red Monika in all her glory.

That was very cool.

I'm going to show my age here. I remember... as a child... watching this Disney short on car pinstripping. Can't believe I found it available.

This feather is actually made up of thousands of naked human bodies

Quote
It may not look like it but the image of a feather you see above is actually comprised of thousands and thousands of naked human bodies. Seriously, look at the up close shots of the feather below and you’ll see bodies laid out holding each other to form each string.

Pointed out by MyModernMet, the photo was made by artist Angelo Musco. He shot photos of dozens of live models in strategic poses and then stitched them together in Photoshop. He describes the project:

A Guy Can Draw Any Logo by Hand Perfectly

A graphic designer in London named Seb Lester has about a million followers on Instagram and Facebook, because he can draw the logo of any business by hand.

He posted a video on his YouTube page where he does them for "The New York Times", Honda, Vans, Adidas, and Coca-Cola.  And they're all perfect.

Here's the doodles I did after reading J Scott Campbell's book... put them on DA with a moderate maturity warning on them, since it's bodies with no clothes (or organs or anything on top either), just to be on the safe side, so I don't know if these will show up.






Man, I was real gung ho about these at the time... the magic is really sort of fading away from me.  They're still pretty good, I think, but it's not like a "whoa, I did THAT?" feeling from me anymore.  I think it's more of me realizing I was more skilled than I thought... though I haven't been able to improvise with that new style yet (the placement of hands and feet was always an issue for me, and it hasn't been resolved yet).

Amazing talent.
