What sort of photo's from kew? Are they dirty? Full of dirt and trees and plants and stuff

dirty_c Alton Towers woohoo indeed (if you've been before you'll know what I mean) must go on Air but don't bother with Oblivion (2hours wait for a drop and a banked turn, yay) still best going at the end of the year and riding nemesis non-stop for twenty minutes , getting phone stalked because you put your mobile number on the internet not woohoo, but fun if you get a heavy breather I suppose


I can't be arsed reading that, the leaflety jobby I got at work was bad enough, I think the best plan of action in the event of imminent nuclear attack would probably be, nick a lorry full of tinned food, disappear down a cave, and if you have time kill all politicians close at hand.

Anyway enjoy sunday, I'm going to be having great fun plastering a toilet's walls and ceiling.

[sketchling]

Im sorry

Um... yeah. Will try have em online this weekend... will bring em to the meet at any rate. And I wont be leaving that digital camera on tha train again... my mom now owns it... but ill be gettin a 4m-pixel, 10x optical zoom beaut soon, so dont worry, the photo's will continue!!! Just more of em....

That dept of vague paranoia thing is really funny... and rather true.

Lookin forward to sunday... dirty_c you have a mac or a pc laptop?

Anyways, sorry about the photos, will have em soon.

Got a new digi-painting too : http://www.sketchling.com/artwork/pond&hut.jpg
Doodle-turned-scene. Photoshop 2hrs between other work.
(dirty-c : again, no definable light source but im workin on it )

[Matt Dixon]

Lovely atmosphere in that scene, Sketchling.

From those old WW2 vids we were shown in school I was in the zone that if a nuclear bomb was to be dropped on St.Pauls id die slowly over a few hours with my skin bubbling and burning away. Though a piece of corrugated steel might save my life.

btw if your gonna run from a bomb/chemical thing I hope your fast. Im a lazy git so ill just wait to die, less tiring for me!

Alton-Towers, Bazza and Shazza Heaven!

[sketchling]

Thanks Matt

Seattle challenges you to a brutal drawing funfest.

Thunderdome On!

[acuna_read]

FECK!!!!!

Ive just got myself up and sorted out, at 1:30. Sorry for not turning up today

Well if anyone wants to make mini meets weekly or whatever (assuming i dont go out and then actually get up!) then just say. Molly? Your close. Oogling the foreign student girls in Greenwich park was a favourite past-time of mine as school boy......

I vaguely understand this Thunderdome thingy and sounds like fun. As long as I get to draw a car or bike...

[Dirty C]

Speaking for the five people in my lounge, we accept. So, maggots, get ready.

The first thing is, we need to change the deadline. Several of us are in Berlin for Marko and Android's workshop until the day before, and I'm in Sardinia until the 6th. So how about Wednesday the 18th for the deadline, and this Wednesday, the 4th, for the challenges? It's quick, but it's only one drawing, and letting these things take too long is the best way to get slack and not bother.

How's that?

Posting this over there as well.

[sketchling]

Well, that was possible the most productive day iv had in AGES. Was great to see new faces!! AND I managed to completly mislead The fox-man in a tour of the tube... circle line does go to Paddington after all... sorry man, hope ya got home ok! Oh, and thanks for guarding my pens, Dirty_c... good thing I have more pens than common sense dictates... can still draw at home anyways!

Well, here's the pic I did as a photoshop demo :
http://www.sketchling.com/artwork/CA_paint.jpg
Fiddled the colours and stuff when I got home, cause they were wierd... LCD screens do change the colour somewhat. If anyone ever needs any photoshop help, just shout... then shout again when ya want me to shut up.

usb drive is doing a fritz on this motherboard, so im gonna upload the photos tomorrow at work.

[koshime]

your art stuff rules!

[troymcoy]

Nice environment sketchling...
I'm starting to get more into this kind of stuff now thanks to some mullins inspiration.
Are there any photos from the meetup?
thanks

[Molly]

Hey Guys,

Sun 1st Aug - a cool meet. Very constructive. Especially Sketchlings demo in PS (link above in his post)... Koshime - real nice to meet you, ur work is cool man...Clayton - thanx for dropping by man, have a safe trip home!

Anyhoo, I've been over to the Lounge, and the Washington lot have added a good few names. We need to too. Matt Dixon PM'd me, so we have him in our troops. I know theres some more out there, so get in here and sign up!

I'm going to check out the rest of the WA lot, see who I can beat to the ground!

- I took the liberty of doing a search on all the WA lot, and came up with these links to samples of work. some I couldn't find, either they havent posted anything, or I got a red X...

http://www.sketchling.com/photos/CA_1stAUG/index.htm

I have proposed the topic of
'a museum in the year 4000 (aliens have made contact many times)'
to nova... lets see what happens

Koshime, great meeting you... I have much to learn from ya, so I hope to see ya again soon. Love yer craft and paintings.. very stark and clear images, gorgeous.

[troymcoy]

Cool, thanks for the photos.

I'd join the challenge now if the subject could be a b&w study of a sargent painting...maybe i'll join in if I finish this.

[Matt Dixon]

Nice environment pic, Sketchling.

Seems fair if you genuine sketch group peoples choose your adversaries before I step in. For the record, I fancy Xia or Stokes...

[cartoonfox]

hey cool pics sketchling. and yeah, i got home... EVENTUALLY!! ^-^

hey matt, glad we can have you on our team (even if you dont come to the meetings ^-^)



peace

[lowpolymatt]

Anyone else needed? I think I can afford a bit of time to do some scribbles...


EDIT: I'll take anyone on.... so I dont mind who im up against..

I'll take xia or stokes dependant on which one Matt picks...or anyone else whos left...Im unfussy..

[Summer Pudding]

Alright m'loves?

It's a lowdown dirty shame I couldn't make it the other day. Looks like you had a laugh. I won't be here for a wee while on account of moving up to live in Manchester in a week or so.

P.S. If I find the time to paint, I'll take on any of that Seattle/Washington rabble. Count me in. What's the procedure? How's it being arranged?

love and snogs

Hey guys, a kentster here. currently in telford, 200 miles away so it would be a little hard going to these group meet ups.
New here, so yea, need to be told all the latest stuff going down.
>To Molly< I had Robin (acuna_read msg you, because I couldn't log on and do it myself, I think you got it.
So yea, somewhere along the lines of his msg.
Would love to get outta the house and meet some artists >You guys<
Thanks!!!

[jetpack42]

I'm going to check out the rest of the WA lot, see who I can beat to the ground!

we'll bring a wet paper bag to our next meet, so you could officially challenge it!

THE match to watch...

Molly VS Seattle's wet paper bag.

Fight!

[lowpolymatt]

So would I be right in saying I'm up against Xia? If so Xia, take your pick of these subjects...

"One too many"
"Look out, look out he/she's behind you!"
"Is that it?"
"You think you're better than us?"
"If I had a pound/dollar for every time that happened..."

....and I will take the same subject and see if I come close to whooping you...
