hey sammy, really cool stuff!
may i ask if you are working as a concept designer? i remember back then you were still studying in school.
anyway your stuff looks real solid, and please keep updating this thread.

Sammy! I don't really have any words to describe how fucking far you have comes....you are like now above and beyond amazing to me. You are by far one of the best artists I've seen now adays...not only that...You are improving real fast in both skill level and analytical level. You have elevated you level so fast and so many time since the first time I saw your stuff. It's unbelieveable and left me in owe.
99.9% of your imagination/ design can be done in real production. And your figure/ anatomy has improve real fast. You will be one of the most valuable asset in the entertainment world. You will be greater than great all you have to do is keeping this up.

Spok: Love you too buddy, in that platonic forum kinda way :fruit:

Bojee: I'm glad you like my shtuffs, thanx man : )

Velo: Thanx, but my hands are starting to hurt drawin' so much... but it hurts good :dead3:

metaphysik: Yo foo, the administrators did that to my profile a couple months back. Davi said I deserved it, felt really good, I was honored.
Oregano, dakoscwash, Chris J. Anderson!: Thanx guys, glad you like

popeye: I graduated about a month ago, I'm lookin' at full-time positions right now, and interviewing where I can.

xia: Thank you, I'm flattered : ) ... everything seems to come together once I started to take it really serious, and apply all I'd learned from ID... and basically, once you've nailed a subject move onto the next... You'll keep all you learn, and expand your technique.... And I think it helps a lot that I want to offer something to entertainment so much... that I don't think of anything I do as art, but rather a sellable product.

gaboartpage: Thank you very much, it helps me a ton to make a skelletal system before I design... I think I'm more used to it from sketching dino's from museums since I was a child. It was great to meet you!

JOSHUATHEJAMES: I made more little robo-dudes for you, from some designs a buddy was workin' on : )


more sketchbook shtuffs... No matter where I go subject-wise, it all comes back around to paleo-art... I've been doodling dino's since I was a kid, so here's more accurate representations of dino's and not just creature stuff
The page of little dudes is based off a character model a buddy of mine is workin' on, I just sorta ran with their little personalities.

[Robolus]

:scared: Sammy, the next time you post such frightening crazygood sketches, please type a big WARNING in the headline! My heart almost stood still.

[Ben Mauro]

wow sammy this stuff is looking great! one question though, how long do you usually spend on a page of thumbs? there looks to be quite a bit on each page, or did you just compile a bunch of thumbs onto one sheet so it would be easier to post? thanks, keep it up, cant wait to see what you do with the sardauker.

[van]

Fucking awesome.

[cartoonfox]

well, what can i say....


100% awesome, and nothing less.
you make me smile with every update



peace man

[Sammy]

Thanx guys I'm happy you're enjoying my new sketch-pad as much as I am!

'Tales of Symphonia' just came out... and it's been since 'Skies of Arkadia' since I've played a good cheesy swashbucklying RPG! So I'd better post before I get too cought up : D

EDIT: BIGafied on the next page...

[Yiako]

I hate to sugar coat, so the naked truth that anybody dares to say to you is: YOUR SCANS ARE TOO SMALL.
<I just tried to be orginal because if I just post "Your skills wet my pants", that on the other hand is my first reaction, I wouldn't add something new to this thread>

[rambhat]

Sammy, this is great stuff. The digital painting of the inside of the cave is really nice. Your figurative work is really improving also. Are you in Savannah now or in Huntsville? PM me and I can give you my number or AIM name. I lost Stacey's phone number in Austin (I don't know how!?). But I'm back in Savannah and working on some concept stuff and what not. Take it easy and keep posting man.

[metaphysiks]

sammy i am forever a fan of your thumbnails, remember you are the king of the thumbnails. keep that up. symphonia looks real good, and nothing was cheesy about arcadia, that game was amazing.

[obid619]

Why can't game playing and drawing interwine into one thing so that when you are doing one of those things, you get better at another. lol. any :wazzup: these are some l33t drawings. while mine are rather bland :nopity: . hehheh. good stuff man, and keep it up.

[S.C. Watson]

dude,sammy, scrumdillyumtous!

Okay, age alert: what the HELL does "l33t" mean? :dorky: :hmm: hahaha - I'm too old for this...

Cheers,
~Oreg.

[deschamps]

What the crap Sammy, those are some ridiculously cool drawings! I was drawing a car today...came out retarded, unlike yours.
