DSG 731: Storybook Imagery: THE BOY WHO TRIED TO BE A BOT

**William b. Hand** · April 27th, 2005, 06:01 AM

Today's extremely late topic, because the bot's not working, and I fell asleep on accident (no it's not an excuse, but rather an explanation... I have to be awake at 3 a.m. to post the new topic in a fashion consistent with the dsgbot), is:

ALDAY- Did you take photo of an acrylic texture and layer it on your cg (or vice versa)? Or is this a filter in your software?

Lol, radioactive building block. Didn't catch that the first time...

HAND- Thanks. Mostly markers, for a change. Oh, and happy bday!

**Alday.J** · April 27th, 2005, 06:16 PM

Dear Sleepychic,
i put a scanned texture when the C.G drawing was finished. No filter. I'm happy you noticed the nuclear block. I love that kind of silly joke... hum !
See ya !

**SantaClaus** · April 27th, 2005, 09:01 PM

machzero- i feel really dumb when I spend lots of work on a painting... and you come and kick as* with a real simple very awesome pic. i like it. lol. how does concept art feel about cursing?

**machzero** · April 27th, 2005, 10:47 PM

thanks! but to be honest, I was doing my taxes, feeling reamed, and the house DSL was down, leaving me with a modem. End result was a ten minute job inspired by sergio aragones.

No doubt mach zero I always love it when someone does such a great job with something so simple.

Groo still kicks ass.

**Sapphire** · April 28th, 2005, 12:27 AM

WOW, I've been away from the DSG too long!! I didn't even know Hand was back, let alone heading up the DSG. It's great to see you around, and happy birthday! I'll try and start posting in here again.

**vonLein** · April 28th, 2005, 01:04 AM

Here's mine, from ref, spent about an hour.

**William b. Hand** · April 28th, 2005, 01:18 AM

So tired tonight. Rehh. *
... But, I wanted to comment even though I'm not posting:

First of all, Alday, Hamsta, Sleepychic, and Sapphire: Thank you so much for your birthday wishes! I dunno exactly how that caught anybody's attention in the first place, but it's kind of you folk to say.

vijil - Sorry about the switcheroo on the topic today... I'll bring back that original topic some other time. I was inspired by my inability to take the dsgbot's place. ( Still no response about what's the matter with it. I worry that about a month's-worth of topics may have been swept away

...oh well.)
Mr north - Very cute!
Alday.J - Nice! Reminds one of the old Calvin and Hobbes comic. Great response to the topic.
nurokatt - Good wood-cut feeling to this one. Cool expression.
machzero - Sergio Aragones! Wow... is he still working? I remember him from a million years ago in the borders and nooks of MAD magazine. Your image does his influence proud.

I'm gonna go ahead and post the next topic a little early, because I'm drousy.

**SantaClaus** · April 28th, 2005, 01:26 AM

hey i was wondering if my pic is to hard to understand? help

**Mister_Cloak** · April 28th, 2005, 02:28 AM

I know this is a bit late but I have been trying to work on it all day and paint is a pain in da tookus...so here you go, about 12 hours (this is only about 1/4th of the peice) in paint. The rest of the piece shows a robot boy waking up as though from a nightmare and outside his window you see the boy in this picture rampaging in downtown, only at night and stuff. Enjoy!

*man, I can not wait until I get my tablet and a computer able to run a decent art program.
