Do You Take Request??? Yippee!!! Make An Black Colored Latios Whit Very Long And Sharp Claws With Blood In Them. Make It's Eye Also Red And Evil Looking.

Forest Grovyle August 30th, 2005 12:27 PM

Sorry Ultimate Latios, I'm not taking requests :( I only mentioned that because I do have a request thread, but they're full at the moment.

New art for you today! :) This is a peregrine falcon ^_^ The reference picture was used with permission from the awesome Brett B :D

Laser mouse, oekaki PaintBBS, and around 7-8 days work.

If the image is very dark for some people, I can upload a lighter version of the pic for you - just say in your reply and I'll do that! ^_^

AWSOME! THIS IS CRAZY! OMG! HOW DO YOU DO IT! WHAT DO YOU USE! I NEED TO KNOW!!! oh, by the way nice shading... lol.

EDIT: WOAH, didn't see that egle picture there! ITS AWSOME!

Forest Grovyle August 30th, 2005 12:36 PM

Hehe! Thanks! ^_^ I made it on oekaki PaintBBS :) It's the first time I've done animal realism for ages - the last time I did was when I drew an oekaki wolf but that seems like years ago now (even though it wasn't!) XD Thought it'd be nice to do something different to drawing people ^_^

manectric_chief August 30th, 2005 12:50 PM

I think that's illegal to draw that well ;) , no seriously, who are you?, your hands must be magical or something...

Cookie luvs Green August 30th, 2005 1:53 PM

YOU ARE NOT HUMAN!! DD:
...
The falcon IS A PHOTO!! *dies* XD

Seriously, THIS IS DONE ON OEKAKI? I am forced to believe you cuz I saw your Indiana Jones picture on an oekaki.
THAT'S AMAZING
Can't wait to see more xD *shot'd*

Forest Grovyle August 30th, 2005 2:21 PM

Awwwww thank you! :D You guys rock ^_^ Your comments are so special and mean so much to me! :D *hugs!*

Hehe! XD I guess I could say I was a Grovyle and not human XD But I think with two fingers it would be rather hard to oekaki! hehe! I'm thinking what sort of thing I want to oekaki next! I am back at uni soon though so I may have to cut down on big projects like this...:( *sniff*

Yameneko549 August 30th, 2005 2:21 PM

How... is that... POSSIBLE?!?!

Seriously, FG, you are THAT **** GOOD! Your skill surpasses that of even the best artists. Not even my favorite artist, Christian Reise Lassen, can make something THAT GOOD.

Amazing.

Cybex Mewtwo August 30th, 2005 7:40 PM

Forest Grovyle......man.....You have to be THE GREATEST.....kinda wants me to hang up my art tools...I really wanna do stuff like that...but I can't......*sniff*....but regardless, you still have a great amount of skill here. No amount of words can surmise what I wanna say. If I could, I would get on a plane, try and find you, and give you the biggest congradulatory hug and handshake I could do. I officially say that I am 100% envyous of ya.

kohei August 30th, 2005 8:02 PM

I thought it was a photo for 5 minutes. I stared at it for 15 minutes, then I saved it on my harddrive.

I can't believe how great you are! I can't put it into words!
And thats done with a mouse right? It's like.... amazing...

Forest Grovyle August 31st, 2005 12:42 AM

Thanks so much Yame~TD, Cy and kohei for commenting on this! :D It really means a lot to me! ^_^ *hugs you all!*

Wow, thanks Yame~TD! I looked up the person you mentioned and I like their art, it's very pretty and colourful! ^_^ You're so sweet to say that about my work! :D

Awwww Cy, I know you have it in you! :D It took me years of practise to get to this point - a year or so ago I wouldn't have been able to do anything like this :) *hugs* So never give up! :D

Hehe! Awwwwww, that's so sweet that you saved it on your hard drive, kohei! ^_^ Yep, it was done with a mouse! :) All my work is as I'm awful at using a tablet ^^;; Mouse-drawing is one of my strengths :D

Thank you all so much again!

--FG :)

Cybex Mewtwo August 31st, 2005 4:49 AM

Thanks for the help...but I've been practicing for SIX years......... :(

Kira August 31st, 2005 11:39 AM

OMFG! OMG! OMG! OMG!
How did you manage to draw that? I mean, if you hadn't said that it was drawn in Oekaki, I would think that it was a Photo. Unbelievable, just....
That's just astonoshing!

Forest Grovyle September 1st, 2005 2:12 AM

Wow, thanks guys! *huge huggles for everyone!* ^_^ I can't tell you how much your comments mean to me! :D They really make me feel great, and make me want to continue with my art! Hehe...I'll have to draw another Pokémon-related pic soon! XD

Shadowfaith September 1st, 2005 2:17 AM

All I will say is that...the comment I left is a good one XD

Hmm...well.....you could take a chance with me vs mewtwo....it's pokemon related...............XD

Nah...do what you will. You could draw a can from the road and make it look good!

Emperor ServingSpoon September 1st, 2005 3:07 PM

At this point you could post a photo and noone would doubt that you drew it... :P The level of detail is amazing! It's a wonderful picture, and I'd hardly be surprised if you didn't get enough time to do ones that intricate frequently. It's amazing...

Maks September 1st, 2005 4:35 PM

I can't believe it's not a photo. I've been staring at it for 10 minutes, and I can't believe it. I never thought it was possibe to draw with a mouse
I still think it's a photo, although I do not doubt the fact that you draw good. After I checked it out, IT IS A PHOTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You'd have to be blind not to see the fact that a person cannot draw such image with a mouse. It would go in the history if you did. IT IS A PHOTO. How could no one figure this out??????!!!!!!!!

Gohan September 1st, 2005 6:08 PM

You should totally do a Pokemon picture like that. Realistic wise! That is so cool! I'm convinced it's half-photo-half-oekaki!

Esupio September 2nd, 2005 12:05 AM

heh

my bro was convinced it was a photo FG

its teh pwn seriously

*gives its teh pwn badge to fg*

Forest Grovyle September 2nd, 2005 1:59 AM

Wow, I wasn't expecting this many new comments in the morning! ^_^ *feels loved!* hehe! Thanks so much, everybody!

I'm so glad so many of you think it looks like a photo! :) That's always the aim with these pics! There are a few bits of it which when you look closer reveal it to be an oekaki XD The background being one - you can't blur any more than that with the oekaki blur tool!

Rayquaza-San, I'd be happy to help your friend! ^^ I've often found Salamence's head a pain to draw...I think the thing you have to remember most is that the eye is quite close to the top of the mouth - the most common mistake is putting it a bit too far up the face and making it look off.

As for Groudon, I imagine his tail as a sort of scoop or shovel. Here's a pic I drew of him that your friend may use for reference if he likes: http://www.domeofstars.com/requests/groudonoekaki.png :) All you need to remember is that the lines run inwards like a bowl on the inside, and then come down the other sides slightly in front of the others due to perspective.

I hope he finds this helpful! ^^

Thanks so much again for all your kind comments! :D Each and every one means so much to me, I can't tell you!

Davey-kun September 2nd, 2005 3:03 AM

Amazing work as always FG! ^^ (btw, its me pyro, i have a new msn addy: [email protected])

MegaFuz September 2nd, 2005 9:27 AM

OH...MY...GOD...I'm stunned FG...that falcon is rediculous...how?....speechless....

Maks September 2nd, 2005 4:02 PM

The drawings are drawn by you, I believe that. However, don't go around telling that the falcon is drawn by you. That's just rediculous, and it's not possible to draw like that with a mouse on a computer. Don't take credit for something you didn't draw, and for those who think it's drawn, look closer.

Forest Grovyle September 2nd, 2005 10:53 PM

Unfortunately the oekaki I posted it at (SROA) has been temporarily disabled due to their account being suspended (couldn't get better timing! >_<) So I can't prove it that way...but here, I'll upload a screenshot of it in progress. This is when I just started it and had only finished part of the beak, eye and feathers. I take these screenshots every now and then so I don't lose my work. Notice that a lot of the details are different to how they appear in the final piece, particularly the feathers under the beak.

I hope this proves it for you. :) I also have a screenshot of it being worked on in the oekaki if you want to see that. :)
