To all the people that have given me llamas, I just want to say thank you. I just got a message that my llama badge has been upgraded to an albino llama... and it's awesome. It's the little things really, thanks.

Thank you much for the kind wishes. I'm slow in replying, but I did have a very nice birthday with my family. I do want to keep posting art but I don't know what all I'm allowed to post at this time. The project has changed and evolved, but I don't know if I can post any of the earlier stuff or not. I'll see. Other than that I just have more coloring. Pretty sure I can post more of that. So keep yer eyes peeled.

Hi Mate!

We have a Training Challenge at our job, and the team name we have picked is GO ASS! It is the first letters in the group members name. Do you mind if we use our AWESOME picture "GO ASS!" as our team logo?! We will credit you. Please let us know.

Cheers!

Rusty001 In reply to Team-Go-Ass [2013-05-17 20:54:00 +0000 UTC]

I did that a while back to send to artist Eric Basaldua. He had some "Go Ass" promotional thing going on... I don't even remember the specifics of it anymore. But "Go Ass!" is really HIS thing. But you are welcome to use my image. Just, as you said, give proper credit somewhere. Hope it works out for you.

I think you've just become my new favourite artist. How are you so prolific? You must never sleep... Absolutely breathtaking and inspirational work.

Hahaha
Thank you for the kind words. To put things into perspective though, I'm 38 years old and this is all work from the past 10 to 13 years. So I'm not as prolific as I would like to be or SHOULD be. There is, however, quite a bit of work that I have done in the past year or two that I have not been able to post because of nondisclosure agreements. Hopefully I will be able to release those soon (fingers crossed).

Yo bro i saw those portfolio pages your working on. I don't know what your planning to do? Trying to find work i gues. I dont want to be a ass but if you want to sell yourself you got to put some more work in designing those pages ! If you want help i'll be glad to help you. => my email. tom.loux@hotmail.com

It's just I don't know i did design for portfolios for school for about a year and the way your doing this. It aint gonna sell. The work you've put in all that beautiful work doesn't really show :s. Sorry to be rude. But I hope it helps

Yeah, I spent a little over a year on the project. I'm pretty happy with what all came out of it too. I'm glad to have been a part of the team that revived the brand. But if I do another Lara illustration... is it "fan art"?

LahmiaRaven In reply to Rusty001 [2010-11-12 19:29:58 +0000 UTC]

Rusty001 In reply to maggotmaster [2010-11-12 18:41:26 +0000 UTC]

I don't know, man. But don't be too hard on the community, I signed up here three years ago, but then I did absolutely nothing until just this late August when a fiend of mine showed me how to post stuff and create folders. So really, all the page views count for just a little over two months! AND I was honored with a Daily Deviant spot. So I'm pretty happy. But hey! if you want to spread the word and boost my page-views and tell the world that I'm available for work... please do!! that would be awesome!

no problem. you gotta tell me how you are doing your work. it's far too clean for photoshop. What's your process?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Lynneblue In reply to Rusty001 [2010-10-17 09:49:48 +0000 UTC]

It is Photoshop, actually ^^
I use the pen tool to do the lines and then... just fill in the color
It's not very creative because my fanarts are based on screencaps, but it's very fun to do and a good way to express my love for a show or character

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Rusty001 In reply to Lynneblue [2010-10-17 17:09:03 +0000 UTC]

so that means it's all vector based? that's nuts! yer either really good or really patient. either way, my hat goes off to you. What I suggest you do is make some of your own sketches, scan them in and apply your crazy vector skillz to them and see what you get!

Lynneblue In reply to Rusty001 [2010-10-17 17:12:34 +0000 UTC]

Uhm, no, wikipedia says "Vector graphics is the use of geometrical primitives such as points, lines, curves, and shapes or polygon(s), which are all based on mathematical equations, to represent images in computer graphics."

My fanarts are made of pixels ^^
No idea why so many people call them vectors

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Rusty001 In reply to Lynneblue [2010-10-17 22:01:41 +0000 UTC]

touchy subject I see.
the "output" is in pixels and what you see on your screen is a representation of pixels as defined by your file specifications (height, width, and dpi). But those points, lines, curves, and shapes you are creating and tweaking in the Path layer with your pen tool.... those are vectors. But whatever, I'm still impressed. Whatever you want to call it, you have a talent for it. Keep it up.

Lynneblue In reply to Rusty001 [2010-10-17 22:18:22 +0000 UTC]

Ok, I'm really confused now >.<
Because it says you can enlarge vectors without any loss of quality (it does not "pixellate"), and you can't do that with my images...

Oh geez, I'll just call my pics fanarts
