I just thought, all the sudden: "HOW ABUOT I MAEK A ART THRED LOLZ!"

So I did.

I can't really do computer art, most of my stuff is done with pencils, charcoal, and pastels. Pastels are probably the coolest thing on this planet. Anyway, here are a few things that I've done.

Self portrait, very old:

Agent Smith, done in several thousand Matrix characters:

Pastels Still life:

Willie Wonka, pastels:

I'm currently trying to cover my entire wall with portraits of cool movie characters, since I love doing portraits and I also love pastels. It might seem a bit redundant to some, but the result, for me, is awesome :)

Thanks dude. My hair's much longer now. :P
 
I love your work, especially the deep shade you use. I wouldn't mind seing some more detailed works though, I'm not a fan of pastels myself. And the clown owns. <3

Thanks dude. :D I'm not crazy about making tiny details, which is one of the reasons why I love pastels-- its impossible and also useless to make details. Maybe I'll post a pencil sketch or something sometime, if anyone cares enough :P

There is Professor Dorr from The Ladykillers. Kinda oddly shaped head, but overall I do like it.

Sorry for the big gap there. I plan to do at least one thing every few days, so I'll put 'em in here. Thanks for the compliments.

Oh, and Willy Wonka (which I just got a better photo of) was voted in to my school's select art gallery. Of course, not many people really submitted, but I am still pretty proud of that :) Here it is, after a good touchup:

Very nice stuff...I had respect for you until you decided to draw Pennywise.

That's just not cool man, not cool. qckbeam scares me too :(
 
You have an interesting style, but if I were you, I would just stop using black forever.

Your drawings will look so much better if you stop outlining things.

Good job so far though!

You've got a point. Perhaps using a darker shade of the color you are outlining instead.

And what is this "yuri" talk?

Yeah, you're definately right. I need to go back and change the outlines. I definately can't stop using black, though, haha. I definately outlined the latest one too much, and I can see some places where I did it and shouldn't have. I guess I get lazy in defining edges. Hrm.

Yuri is my nickname, vegeta.
 
really nice stuff, i like pastels myself too. :)

i know this is way offtopic but erestheux you used to have another nick in hl2.net, what was it?

Hazar got it right. Soon it will be Yuri, any complaints??!

Also, give me like an hour or so and I'll do another portrait. :)

Thanks, man. :)

But I hardly update this, sorry. Its cuz I haven't had any time for art this summer yet... but I will. Right now I'm on vacation and art supply-less, but I'll try to get something done soon. :)

That's why I was asking you why you named yourself Yuri... I knew what it was and it seemed kind of odd :rolleyes:
 
Oil pastels, water pastels or chalk pastels?

Chalk. I haven't used the other two yet, but I plan to use some oil pastels I just got very soon. :)

Also, Yuri is a name from cybersh33p. He used to call me "Yuri's Ducks" because thats how he pronounced my name. So I took on the nickname Yuri cuz its a cool name, and draw ducks everywhere. :)
 
Oil pastels are great fun. But Water Pastels make for a smoother colour and texture. I haven't tried chalk pastels.

When i get my art folio back i'll scan some of my pastel work and post it. I love pastels.

And what ever happened to cybersheep?
