If you have a zombie infestation, these men will kill them for you. It was kind of a rough sketch.

here is a drill into a complex figure i designed with a simple basic musical composition to accompany it.. i just used the metronome for the main rhythm and a few drums abd cymbals for a fluttering point set.
whatever. so this is my own composition visually and musically.

HAL_9000: excellent sketch.

b9: I enjoyed watching that. What did you use to generate the music; a digital piano, or keyboard? I'm curious about viewing the same figure again with a very rapid drill; it would add to my sense of how the various scales relate to the whole.

ermm the music was not randomly generated by an electronic instrument. i composed it.
i played it with my fingers on just a keyboard. it is a casio ctk 800 which is a cheap keyboard. but i have it plugged in to my sound card in my main computer which has impressive hardware in the card that can produce a very realistic piano sound. i bypass all the hardware trinketry of the keyboard sounds and use my sound card to render the tones of the instrument i want to play.
a ctk800 played by itself is like a cheap organ grinder sound.
but if you plug the keyboard into a superior renderer, you can get very good representations of real world instruments.

so i used a flute and 3 piano tracks to do the song.
i have a 16 track mixer which means i can lay tracks over my previous performances to add illustration. i switched off the tympanic tracks near the end which i should not have done.
whatever.

i did not conceive the music for the purpose of marrying with the animation. i conceived it on a quiet night with no visual reference. there is no relation except
accidental ones.
i am glad you gave me honest feedback. i can do a drill much faster than the one i portrayed. i do not know the speed of peoples concentration and i underestimate it.

i will drill into the design next time without the spinning spiral effect (i added that for someone who wanted it).
i like to have it totally symmetrical and not to change its horizontal symmetry in any way.

thanks for replying and sorry i am severely autistic at the moment and can not think of anything smart to say.

@b9: I think outlier comment was broad, as in what did you use to make it
Trippy vid btw (:

i am sorry? did my description of how i made it indicate i did not understand the motive of the question?

i hope i do not sound rude, but i thought i answered his question (well the question i percieved any way.)
you are socially gifted. did he mean anything i did not get?

oh thank you by the way for taking the time to watch.

Wow, great drawings here everybody. I particularly like the 'trippy' one. I'd love to be able to draw, but unfortunately I can't even write cursively with any measure of success, let alone draw anything beyond stick men. I've always regretted that, since I have a lot of avid imagery going on in my mind at any given time. Nope, I'll stick to painting my pictures with the weaving tapestry of language.

As a shameless plug, though, I've been tinkering with the idea of writing a comic or some similar work with illustrations in the past, but I've never managed to find anybody with the talent or inclination that I could successfully communicate my ideas to. If any of you might be interested in doing something like that, don't hesitate to contact me.

Here's a character I'm particularly fond of, one who I came up with during a Forum RPG I was running a while ago. Note that I did *not* draw him; rather this was done by a talented friend of mine from the written description I provided. It's still very good though and I'd like to showcase his work.

Danteig - a fusion of the characters Seig from Chaos Legion and Dante from Devil May Cry

Here's another one; a composite photoshop done by another friend of mine from the same RPG. Note that the sword we came up with, called the Master Buster, is the single most badass thing in all existence.

Linoud - fusion of Cloud from Final Fantasy 7 and Link from the Legend of Zelda series

There's some good artwork on here. Here's some of mine. The first three are pen and ink. I primarily do stippling, but these have a lot of line work in them. The other two are ink and watercolor drawings from my moleskine watercolor sketchbook. I call them sketches, but they're really not with me being such a detail freak.

Thank you, Erminea )
I'm going to pass some exams now to study animation and graphics in uni, so i guess if i'd be lucky (and strong) enough in next 3 months there'd be more stuff in this gallery

Good luck with your studies and I'll check (if I may) your 'deviantart' gallery once in a while. Plus try to be strong, you can do it, I'm sure. The talent is there for sure and.... just continue making 'stuff'.
