Angelus-Mortis' Art Thread

Excellent work there Angelus :monster:

Your attention to detail is just.....shockingly good :wacky:
 
Wow, it really does looks quite realistic. Still I don't classify it as "Too Bloody", you know, after playing games like "Silent Hill" or "Condemned", players are used to see a lot of blood :wacky:

Nice Job :monster:
 
As is probably apparent from my sigs and avatars, it's the 231st anniversary of Carl Friedrich Gauss' existence. So in commemoration, I drew two pictures.

I know he looks kind of sad in this drawing, but his life was kind of sad in a way. His wife died after his third child was born; five years after he married her, his main supporter, Duke Carl Wilhelm Ferdinand also died, he made few personal friends, due to the high level of his genius and isolation, and some enemies, due to the fact that he would not acknowledge their work, claiming it was his own (his journal and posthumous papers revealed this had been true), suffered hypochondria and melancholia, particularly in his later life, and was ill for most of his later life. And yet, none of these things stopped him from being the magnificent man that he was, the kind, gentle and calm being of great genius, who disliked conflict and did not preach religious intolerance, and perhaps sensitive, yet strong in spirit and intellect.

For those interested, Gauss' name in Latin (nominative) is Carolus Fredericus Gauss.

And this is the picture part of the series of the three greatest mathematicians, which I delayed on purpose for this event.
 
Wow! o.o I finished watching your flash movie and it's amazing. The artwork, music, sounds, story, everything is well thought out and pieced together. The little mathematician was very cute and I knew the birds would appear at the end! Awesome job! I can't wait for the next movie.
 
Gee, I haven't drawn in awhile.

Actually, I drew this picture awhile ago, but never got around to coloring it because I was busy working on the flash movie, and so now I did.

I'm surprised; I haven't rusted at all.

This is from the SNES game, Alcahest. It's old, but fun. Unfortunately, it's in Japanese, so you need a translation patch to make any sense of it.

Cool stuff, I really liked the first sephi image and the colored fusoya, those where exceptionally cool

I admit I'm not exactly a professional artist or anything, nor am I planning to build a career around it; art is just an activity I spend lots of time on and enjoy; a hobby if you will, although I would be interested in having my stuff published or having commissions if people are interested. I just don't know how I'd get it published though.

Yeah I am kind of in the same boat. I just draw for a hobby, and sometimes I like to frame my pictures. Anyway...

I like your sketches Karl, they're impressive. They're actually inspiring me to draw a little more and now I want to post a thread on some of my art. I want you to comment on my art! constructive criticism or w/e!

I have a question though, "do you color your pictures on the computer? or do you paint them?"... what are your materials?
 
I color them on the computer because it's more convenient. No messy paint, etc. I don't doubt the quality of traditional works though; they can be just as great.

I use a tablet and Photoshop CS3, though Corel Painter or OpenCanvas are equally as good; it just depends on your style.

The sketches were done in a sketchbook with a lead pencil and a kneaded eraser; nothing fancy, but I guess I don't achieve depth in those sketches by using only one kind of pencil.

However, it's important to recognize that you use the tools that suit you best; not necessarily the ones that are considered the "best".

Interesting.

I just got done looking at some of your artwork in your gallery. All the pictures I looked at were amazing. I didn't expect to see a Goku picture in there, that was cool. If I could get some constructive criticism out of you on my artwork that would be awesome!

Can't wait to see more of your work!
 
Love the new stuff Angelus, it's always great looking at your art, it's just brilliant!
 
The first one looks cool, simple, and clean.
The second one though....
OM fecking....(I won't complete that sentence....)

And you said you did this because you were BORED?! :gasp:


Hmm.....can I make a sig an avatar out of it? :wacky:
It looks cool and I want to try a Sephiroth siggy and avy :)
 
Sure, go ahead. I've already seen the smaller previews of the picture, and it looks pretty cool. Which is rare because few of my pictures look as good as the original size when they've been shrunken down. By all means, go right ahead. I'd love to see it.
