I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, but there's no specific art forum anymore, and I vaguely remember you mentioning that art threads are welcome in here, chrissie. :)

anyway, yeah, share your personal art creations in here!! we should keep it *critique* free unless otherwise noted by the poster... remember that comments and critiques are different guys. ;) and play nice (although this isn't the lounge, so it should be fine).
post your paintings, drawings, graphics, photos, etc... all of it!! i'd love to see what you guys come up with. :)

this is an old painting from high school painting 1, acrylic on canvas. it's been in my gallery for awhile, but i don't have much else uploaded yet:

Hahahah and just for fun....my very first Tinkertoy machine! lol
tinkertoy.jpg



awesome. the professor that teaches all the comp sci graphics courses at my school always used tinker toys for visual examples. hed make these elaborate polygons and simulate rotations and such to them around a tinker toy XY/YZ plane. was always entertaining.


My shit is pretty much all in my gallery, most of that is stuff for school which i put a half assed effort into. I do a lot of artwork at my job but in a manner of hours, it just gets sent to a DI and printed and shipped out and i never see it again. Sux that a good portion of my artwork are in OpenGL and thus are .exe files, so cant really post those hehe.

crappy shit

Do you 3d model? Are you working on a game? I really want to see what you've got as I've seen your other work. Can't you just use printscreen and paste to take a screeen capture?

^ hey man i dig a lot of your artwork! that very top one, the purple dude, my one friend has a bong and the first chamber looks exactly like that guy (its shaped that way intentionally). Also that wierd thing with the eyeballs and exposed brain (says intergalactic photographer) is totally wicked.

yes i am spending the summer developing a game. word on the street has it it will be bluelight themed. However, im developing it with the allegro api, and not OpenGL. Im pretty much drawing all the artwork in adobe illustrator and photoshop, but artwork and sound are the last stages in the pipeline and wont be finished probably till late July, early August.

A screenshot of my OpenGL stuff would be kind of dumb (allthough they are in my gallery too i think), because the focus is on dynamic applications and interactivity, and not visual asthetics (it could be, i just choose not to because im lazy). Also you would need the glut32.dll file to run them, which isnt a big deal (its free on the opengl site), but i imagine no one on here has it so nothing would run in the first place. So a basic print screen would just look like some funky shapes on screen, cant tell how interactive it is and all. Ill take a screenshot of a program I made that draws a TIE fighter in perspective and 3 orthagonal projections, and allows the user to move the TIE around in some projections and rotate it in others. The graphics are quite simple, the implimentation is not.

Still its a heavily underappreciated form of art, and I tend to blab extensively about it to try and get this area of computer graphics some attention :).
