I think I've done it all now with SHIII - screenshot series, stories, movies, mods - and now I thought I'd try my hand at drawing.

I'm a complete art n00b, technically speaking (it's not part of my profession and I've not had any art classes or projects for a good 7 years now), but I try.

Here's a couple of sketches I did recently.

(~3 hrs pencil + 40 minutes photoshop tweaking for both)

Anyone else tried to do anything like this? Do share! :)

I drove an Alpha russian sub a while back, in pencil as well - inspired by red october movie. Haven't tried much since, but I think you did a very nice job there~!

I just wish I could draw like that. :o

I have hard time to draw even a stickman. :D

Same thing here!

By the way, how does a good stickman look???

There have been so many short stories, sketches, poems and drawings recently on the forums that we should consider and Subsim Art Forum (with Torplexed as its caretaker)!
:D

Maybe, but it depends how many people would use such a forum...

I'd hate to have another empty and uninteresting forum...

I can bs and say I drew my sigpic, but it's only photoshopped SH3 screeny (with a handwritten Type941 signature). :P

Nice drawings guys.
