Re: New Avatar/Self Portrait (Pixeled)

The forms have been improved upon, but a lot of them could be made more distinct. You should try creating faces as idealically propotioned as posible, then move on to creating your likeness. Once you have an idea of how the face fits together it will be a lot easier to adjust it to match with your f...

Re: New Avatar/Self Portrait (Pixeled)

You're not off railing mine, you're giving advice ;) In that case final image: http://samzeid.com/faceManified.png http://samzeid.com/faceAgain.png * Cleaned up a lot of the dithering and the jaw line. * Continuously flipped the image and reworked it over and over, to make it balanced. This is a go...

Re: New Avatar/Self Portrait (Pixeled)

Final touchups (barely noticable); http://samzeid.com/faceManified.png Perhaps I should move this too my own art thread or something rather then off railing yours. Yup, my avatar has always been like that since I joined. The screwing with people so that they go, "Was it always like that?",...

Re: New Avatar/Self Portrait (Pixeled)

The face proportions are pretty good. I was originally going to do an edit, instead I ended up re-doing the entire face in the way I would have gone about it. http://samzeid.com/face.png Before I mention how I came to this, I should say I obviously don't have a picture of you to go by so I can't pix...

Re: Draw Muhammed Day

Yeah I did mean to say "don't". Do you believe that a man should be entitled to his full rights when he responds to "nushuz" (translated to disloyalty, disobedience, opposition, and several other related terms that are debated) by beating his wife violently? Firstly I would like ...

Re: Draw Muhammed Day

as for your little list. really, did you even look at it. Yes I did, and saw a lot of ones that werent really just strange, but it's on wikipedia and I don't make a habit of looking to far for something like that. I just needed a quick sample to show what I meant and there are certainly terms on th...

Re: What projects are you currently working on?

4's not out just yet but soon. It is pretty pricey but then you compare it to 3dsmax or maya and it doesn't seem so bad a price... Maybe that's just me trying to justify buying it.

Re: Why do I procrastinate so?

Take the 100% the time it took to mark was proportional to the time you left yourself to do it in. Actually I would take it as a compliment, he can't give everyone 100% so why did you get that grade... Also, Drink beer and get laid.

Re: What projects are you currently working on?

That's some nice work. I personally get a hard on using zbrush how did you find it? Also side note; If you are looking for a free alternative and haven't heard of it yet. http://www.sculptris.com/ . It's a bit buggy though. I'm thinking of buying zbrush version 4, but I'm not really sure if I'm that...

Re: Draw Muhammed Day

Christianity does not promote violence, islam does. people going on a jihad are just following the religeon. the kkk and nazis have NOTHING to do with christianity. It is the interpretations people bring to their religions that promote violence, whether or not the religion is violent at it's core. ...

Re: Draw Muhammed Day

Yeah I'm not talking about anything specific there and you're taking it out of context imo, the benefit however would be clash sparking up progress in either positive or negative actions. And yes, I know what I'll find if I wanted to see those images. Other than that I think we're on the same page....

Re: Draw Muhammed Day

And also, yeah idolization is not a good thing but that doesn't mean people should start killing for the cause of it, it defeats the purpose entirely. islam makes me fucking sick. That isn't really my problem with this event. Muhammad has been depicted as an image before, and will again. If this ev...
