Well deserved - I think I actually said 'awww' and giggled out loud when I saw yours... Looks like Hunter Gorinson is really digging your stuff over on Twitter, and maaaaybe Warren Simons too?
As far as postin pics here, if you can upload your images to an image hosting site like Photobucket ( or something better), all you have to do is add [IMG] tags and insert the URL address in between the two center brackets... Photobucket even automatically gives you a full IMG tag you can copy & paste.

I freelance and work all the time, and never get to draw for fun anymore.
One reason why I started participating in #fanartfridays - gives me a chance to draw something for me!

Re: Fan Art Fridays
Thanks Josh! I actually was blown away by a lot of the art this past week! Really cool seeing your progress on your piece. I showed my husband, and he was like-- dang-- look at the detail!

I think I have a photobucket or flicker acct somewhere... I'm horrible at updating - never keep up with those things anymore... Just my blog & my DA acct.
But maybe its a good time to get back into those things!

I am not inclined to do so but there is a picture of me floating around the internet at a comic book convention wearing a Dominion War era Star Trek uniform at a comic book convention. Admission was free if you wore a costume so I saved $3.grendeljd wrote:Clearly that leaves the responsibility in your hands to put on a costume and start posing...Chiclo wrote:The only artistic capacity between the two of us is that the wife is a capable photographer.MarkRoseHFX wrote:Twitter NEEDS a Chiclo and/or a Mrs Chiclo (The Mothergod) #FanArtFriday

that's pretty cool.

When I was growing up, my brothers and I watched Voyager & DS9, caught a few Next Gen epps, but never really watched it. But thanks to NetFlix... I can see what all the fuss was about

Re: Fan Art Fridays
i like some of the original series but I was always more of a TNG fan. DS9 and Voyager had their moments but TNG is the best imo.

Re: Fan Art Fridays
Thank you, missjay [and your husband too]! I am a sucker for detail when I get into a piece - I also have a DA acct., mostly up to date - have a peek at the link in my signature if you or your hubby want to see more.missjay wrote:Thanks Josh!

Re: Fan Art Fridays
OH NO! I've been officially called out! I am shamed it's taken me this long to participate. I just know once I start it'll be a 5 hour commitment (minimum).

Really, I've been logging countless hours photographing Joes and building 3DJoes.com
It's quite a time commitment.
I'm traveling to Vancouver for work next week, so I'll try to get it in on the plane.
Keep it up guys (and gals

Re: Fan Art Fridays
Gah! I forgot to upload that X-O sketch I did last week. I'll try to drop it here in the next couple of days. Of course I have no clue what to do this week, I guess I'll slam out another quick piece at the last minute like last time.Also, I hope all the rest of you guys drawing stuff around here keep it up and post to this thread - SonicDan you need to post some here, your's are great!, orbitalshift, teedot42 & BTE.

It's been ages since I've done any character art. It's been pretty fun diving back in, but I'm no professional artist by any stretch.
