nice, very nice. I like many of those!!
|
hey talon, big ups for the nice contributions!! :ok:
most of this stuff is really weird, but very well done! how did you do this? photoshop? |
Cool Talon, but is a picture really name'd "Ancient evil"? Cause it doesnt actually remind me of the game it's supposed to be... :whistle:
|
yeh photoshop7.
im experimenting with 3d modeling in cinema 4d at the moment. yeh its ment to be a mix of anceint things ( the grungy backgorund) and the evil of the clones. probly not the best title but just popped into my head so *shrugs* |
Nice digital art. ;)
Guess what picture caught my eye. It was "Mental breakdown". The moment from "The Shining" is caught very good in this one. :D |
Incredible :ok:
|
Rock on! :ok:
I wish I could do that... Can I place an order?? :D |

based on the power armour mk. II background (from fallout 2's box shot)?
|
Love this form of art!!! :kosta:
If you want idea to new one,what about one that is based on Diablo2 or Sacrifice? :sneaky: |
I would want something as a wallpaper at 1280x1024 for the game "ABUSE".

post ur requests here with details like: size: image to use: if u want a specific one or ill do my best to find something text if any: any specifics to design, borders etc |
is the one below "rogue" in the first post anything to do with S.T.A.L.K.E.R ?
nice stuff, btw - very tasty! |
no its the sniper from commandos 3 (and one and 2 but the pics from number 3)
|
I am so desperately curious what programs you use, and what techniques. Got any references you're willing to give? :bye:
Every time I look at it, it just looks more amazing. :ok: |
photoshop 7 + many plugins + over 400mb of brushes plus a bit of inguinuity LOL.
thats it really. ermmm references.... www.good-tutorials.com really. and www.pixel2life.com is where i got a few of my skills, the rest is just playing around with photoshop7 |
Where do you get your plugins and brushes? I don't have any =P
|
photoshop cs all the way.
and some custom patterns I made myself. |
www.deviantart.com for brushes
try sigsource.com and hit their download section for good stuff i aint a hugeCS fan, dunno, the interface on some sections dont argree with me |
Wow! These are looking great man! :ok:
|
HOLY COW THIS STUFF IS GREAT I LOVE IT. one question (with all of your talent why dont you make yourself a wicked cool avie or sigie) :eeeeeh:
|
@talon:
some very useful resources of drawing techniques/support have been mentioned in this thread in the last post... maybe you wanna add these links to the "graphic software, tutorials and resources" thread? |
hey yahh talon that would be pretty cool you should do it. :w00t:
|
ok sure, what kinda things have i said that are usefull? i kinda just post crap and not grat at picking out usefull bits myself later (crap brain LOL) so any pointers as to what u want would be great.
i been busy of late and so aint reall constructed anything new since getting back on the net.. ill make me an old skool vector sig for this site later 2nite. cheers for the comments guys :ok: |
made me an abandonia sig and avatar. :D
|
Quote:
:w00t: :kosta: :kosta: :kosta: |
Very nice :ok:
|
Thanks for the references :D
Also, love the new sig and avvie, although I really thought the talon was was appropriate :D ... but hey, the new ones are just awesome, too! :ok: |
Yay you listen to my opinion about the siggie :ok:
|
|
Quote:
But I like your present avatar more.Have weakness for wolfs,shiny blue and robots.Especially for shiny blue roboticl wolfs LOL |
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...0_1254copy.jpg
some lovely photo editing of a oldphoto of me. |
All i can say is whoa.
|
Nice...
Inspired me to do my own.. ill go and post them up in my gallery. |
2 new pieces:
a sig for a website : http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...rogue2copy.jpg and a bit of vector art ( used the cutout too just to provide a basis,) that i brush vectored myself. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ectorwoman.jpg |
*reaaally* like the sig.... *reeeeaallly* want a TaloN sig.... don't know what I would want though... Love Hina? Naru Narusagawa? :angel:
The Yuna vector art... very good job, though some of the lines seem somewhat... choppy? not quite in place? (think it's supposed to be that way, though, so *shrug*) Altogether, very extra-tasty-crispy, though :ok: |
It would actually make a really good horror game, if one used the style you placed on Yuna.
The lightning is distorted making you wonder what it is, and at the same time everything is visible. Awesome! |
i do alot of simple 3-4 tone art like taht one, its vector to an extent but i use brushes (oil paints in RL) so the edges stay distorted.
Tai ill PM you and well sort osmething out. |
sig for Tai:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...vehinacopy.jpg sorry i personally am not happy with it, ill do some more later but im just gonna go collapse and sleep (went to bed at 6am this morning + bad hangover) |
:kosta: Thank you, TaloN, it's very much what I was going for, despite your perfectionist doubts! :kosta:
:tnx: :D |
I agree its a really nice sig :D
|
I like it as well :)
|
yes, i join the line...the sig's nice! but the font is rather hard to read, imo.
other than this, nice job talon! :) |
kontiki's request
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ontikicopy.jpg if anything needs changing shout at me please |
Good job... not fond of the text though...
|
The font's good. Could've been a bit more wood-ish, but all by all, it's good. I don't really get the background, though (not to mention red's not my color, but I should've said before that it's green :whistle: ) I definitely love the tiki-man, though. He's just plain awesom :ok:
|
do u want a simple background , not an abstract one like that, or something else...
txt cna easily be redone edt: green one http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ntikicopy2.jpg and sorry it took so long man, been at various things over past few days, aint been home for more than 20minutes LOL |
Simple background, yup. And the green's much better :ok:
|
this "green one" is really nice, as far as the background is concerned!
but i am not able to get the connection between the text "i'm a little peanut" and the rest of the sig. :blink: |
Quote:
ask kontiki he asked for itl ol |
Kontiki is a little peanut (look at his interests in profile :D ) and he likes the South American style...
|
'K ben'n klein apenootje!!! :D
Me likey. |
Oh, yeah, I really like the green version. You've done some awesome sigs, Talon. :ok:
|
Talon, did you colour brush the original sig to make it green ?
It looks a little.... ''flat'' or one colour. The red image seems to have more contrast. Good Job... Tiki Is A Peanut and Now We Have The Proof! |
no magic i used something called a colour adjust layer.
allows you to alter the colour properties of shadows, highlights, and midtones. the one thing with photoshop is making a green image is rather hard. mixing yellow and blue tones really doesnt work, so you have to use a mixture of green, cyan and yellow, which doesnt give the depth of the magneta, red, yellow, tones i used in the orange one. i will make a new one soon. thanks for the comments guys :) |
|
wow, that's fresh - cool variation, but i liked the first one better, or to be precise
the first one's font... |
Hope you dont mind Talon, i had a go at turning the red image into a green one :tomato:
|
jesus christ at image quialty. destroyed it.
|
First green version was better. Some ocean/beach scenery on the first (green) version'd probably do the trick.
|
LOL :cry: il try agian later
and on a new note my soverieng craft gallery is up!! http://sovereigncraft.com/artist_talon.html |
Yep, I know, I'm a perfectionistic jerk :bleh: Those pics in the gallery're so damn cool, though.

I don't know if they're better but here are two for Magic's contrast love :D :
http://www.nrg.to/Luchsen/kontikicopy2.jpg http://www.nrg.to/Luchsen/kontikicopy5.jpg I would prefer such a colour: http://www.nrg.to/Luchsen/kontikicopy3.jpg or http://www.nrg.to/Luchsen/kontikicopy4.jpg |
you know i could have the pair of you for copyright infringements eih ieh :P
|
You could... but heh you wont!
@Luchen I like the 3rd one down most.. 4th one is a bit shitty the rest are good... |
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...3/armycopy.jpg
something ive been working on a few weeeks back edit: McrMike at sovereigncraft.com made this for Kon-Tiki after i requested the other artists have a go:: http://img77.exs.cx/img77/5651/kontikisig4tp.jpg |
They're both pretty cool, honestly.
|
I like the ones Lucjsen recoloured there - that Mesoamerican look is groovy. They're all a bit big for a sig image, though...
|
Hmmmm. Talon you should make me a sig. :whistle:
|
PM me a request LOL.
size, images, colour scheme, text, more detail you can give the better :P |
Got any images for me to drool over?

Ah ok.... your journey home might inspire you =)

Sleep bring dreams... dreams inspire! :ok:
|

What techniques do you use to make this art of yours? |
You really have some sweet stuff here. lookin' forward to seeing more^_^
|
i use images from the net, and what little skill i have with a wonderful program called adobe photoshop 7 :P and lots of addons + brushes from deviantart.com
cheers guys muchos appareciated. |
I thought all the plugs at devianart.com were pay 2 use.. let me go check
EDIT: Can't even find the right website :angry: |
|
|
Dont like it that much =-/
I dont know why... just a little plain i suppsoe. |
With all these stylish sigs emerging, I must dig out one of mine. I want to be part of the cool crowd. I like your latest, Talon.
|
It looks nice,but dont fit with you avatar somehow..... :blink:
|
yeh ive gotta make an avatar from it soon
|
I like your art :) the sig is nice, I really like that anime guy. ^_^
|
An Animie cowboy eh... Talon and Indie have odd tastes
|
Hehe, anime is modical today...

What have you all against anime? :blink:

But I guess we should stop getting off topic now. ;) |
Of course it is cool but unrealistical!!! :bleh: ...topic? Oh, yes...
|
|
looks cool!
|
That's amazing - just made me go "Wow!" out loud, which isn't the easiest thing to do. Not too sure about the text though. I love the way it's got no facial features, like the last panel in the "Daisy playing netball at school" Grange-Hill style comic in the Spaced episode Help from season 2.
|
Love it, TaloN!! :ok:
@BeefontheBone: roflmao!! New sig. Sigh. :D |
Fantastic. I love it. Sorry I'm late at replying I've been in Queensland for the past week.
Thankyou. :ok: |

glad u like it newayssome new stuff. very simple 30second piece: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ndoniacopy.jpg and for the 42nd rainbow division (part of a game i play) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ainbowcopy.jpg |
Nice work.. not to keen on the rainbow division image... what game?
Im guessing CoD or Hd2.... |
Day of Defeat (a world war 2 mod for Half life. very tactical, very skilled, not a death match like TeamFortress or the camper enviroment of CounterStrike.)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...marcoscopy.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...tillescopy.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2.../sunjocopy.jpg |
these are nice, yet i think that the colourful ones don't suit the topic. they look
a little hippie-like, which - in my view - does not match the war theme in general. so i'm supporting the first one! |
hippies have to express themselves. even in war ^_^

a42 = rainbow division and our moto is : Taste the rainbow! (were comfortable with out sexuality) unofficially sponsered by skittles! so the colourful thing fits with the div :P |
The Duality of Man
COLONEL: Marine, what is that button on your body armor? JOKER: A peace symbol, sir. COLONEL: Where'd you get it? JOKER: I don't remember, sir. COLONEL: What is that you've got written on your helmet? JOKER: "Born to Kill," sir. COLONEL: You write "Born to Kill" on your helmet and you wear a peace button. What's that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke?! JOKER: No, sir. COLONEL: You'd better get your head and your behind wired together, or I will take a giant muck on you! JOKER: Yes, sir. COLONEL: Now answer my question or you'll be standing tall before the man. JOKER: I think I was trying to suggest something about the duality of man, sir. COLONEL: The what? JOKER: The duality of man. The Jungian thing, sir. COLONEL: Whose side are you on, son? JOKER: Our side, sir. COLONEL: Don't you love your country? JOKER: Yes, sir. COLONEL: Then how about getting with the program? Why don't you jump on the team and come on in for the big win? JOKER: Yes, sir! COLONEL: Son, all I've ever asked of my marines is that they obey my orders as they would the word of God. We are here to help the Vietnamese, because inside every gook there is an American trying to get out. It's a hardball world, son. We've gotta keep our heads until this peace craze blows over. JOKER: Aye-aye, sir. Or they take drugs... |
:kosta: :bye:
I really like TaloN's artwork, very nice mix of imaging and colour and impact. I have been around on the outside of the site for a while, just joined recently, and am enjoying the amazing creatvity all through the forums. just wanted to say hi and how much I like T's work. :Brain: |

I realized I didn't comment on your posted pieces.
Rebirth is really cool :) |

the lighting effects on the ends aint quite rigbht yet as you can see, purely done with black and white circle brushes and smudging. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2.../smackcopy.jpg |
Interesting, I use the unedited resource pic as my DPic sometimes.
I must say its an odd image, experiment some more and show it off when finished. Percuilar. |
Can you make and 8000X600 or 1024X768 RE background.....Not to creepy...Itīs dark almost allthe time here now :P
NOTE: Do it as creepy as you want!!!!!!! :ph34r: I can allways hide under my bed :omg: |

|
You dont have time for a battle but you do for a background.. pfft.. afraid of losing me thinks :P
Serious though... could you gimme your msn again for a chat? |

a sig i was messing with and never finished:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2.../smackcopy.jpg something i did for an ex girlfriend, trying to get the message across , after 2 years. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...n123/letgo.jpg and a photo taken at the other end of my village. and yes that IS a wheelie bin UP a flag pole!!! crazy british people. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...eelie-bin3.jpg |
i'd say the first page is my favorite i like how grimy and dark they are :sneaky:
|
Us Brits eh.. wheelie bins on flag poles.. how meeped up are we?
|
Well at least it's easy to give directions for the house.
'Just look for the wheelie bin on the flagpole.' LOL |

The garbage bin pic is awesome LOL, I think I'l set it as my comp back round....
|
Your stuff is awesome ^_^ ...why is the garbage thing on the pole ? :blink:
|
LOL I scrolled down and saw "this is something I did for an ex girlfriend..."
And I saw a hand holding something and was confused for a second when i saw LET GO. that was so funny to me :tomato: Odd picture with the garbage can :blink: |
HOLY CRAP! idk how you do that stuff but every time i look at it, it blows me away :blink: ! KEEP IT UP YOU ROCK!!!!!!
|
the house with the flagpole is owned by some very rich posh people, they got in an arguement with some of the "lower" *cough* council scum* cough* of the village in the pub.
they went home, next morning woke up to that, the people they were argueing with had put it up the pole LOL. i hate both sets of people, so its all gd |

But in the first sig I think that the light is hiding too much the man on the right. However, you made good pics! :ok: |
did those about 6 months ago,

What do you mean "aint going back"? What are you using now?
|
As always, your artwork is great! :ok:
|
He's not using anything.
He's quit graphic design, and won't be back for a while as far as I know. Too busy with his social life, unfortunately. |
