i normally use 8 1/2" x 11" stationary type paper. it's the same touch and feel as the expensive sketch paper... and comes in at a very, very cheaper cost.

And i have gotten my hands on .005 and .03 art pens that allows me to do even sharper detail work. :)

i'm working on a cover for the V1 box cover... i posted the first part (the Humvee) that is going to be in the background. and I am working on the characters who will be in the foreground... planning on using the look of some of the characters whom are on the v2 cover for a couple of them.

When i do the Merc 2000 cover artwork, i'll post them here too. :)

That is interesting. I have had a love hate relationship with my old refillable rapidographs and have not done much serious drawing since the newer disposables with finer points have come out. Any brand recommendations?

I also just now found out that 0.2mm mechanical pencil lead is available on the internet. I gave up searching for that 15 years ago. Maybe with these new facts I might start drawing again.

i got some primsacolor artpens thta are great. :)my sister got them for me. and theyve allowed me to do allkinds of good details.

Whose party is she in? Lucky devils...

Your work is commendable, Nate. I wish I could render my ideas this way.

The last picture (the black haired beauty in the nearly transparent shirt) would be the embedded journalist form our campaign...

Angylina Sharareh Teymūrtāsh of the WBN (Westinghouse Broadcasting Network) News Channel. She's Persian-American who's 'stage name' is "Anglyina Sharareh"... who is one of the four field correspondents in the European theather who make up the lineup for the "On the Frontline with..." news show.

the picture above is her after she stopped being self-concious. because she started out wearing alot to cover her body (inculding head scarf), but after Kalisz she slowly started to become more open.

Pierce Brosnan? I've got news for you -- Roger Moore was the best Bond!

((Thanks to a total cockbite grammer nazi I went in and corrected honest spelling mistakes))

Brosnan captured the best aspects of Connery and Moore... and if they would have let him make the last two movies that they were going to have him do, i think he would have nailed the role. Connery and Moore both liked his time as Bond. :)

Of course they say Dalton was a good Bond, but I never really took to him in the role. He was the placeholder for Brosnan thanks to the BS going on with Remington Steele (they canncellled the show and had told Brosnan he could have the role, then reniged at the last minute).

I love Connery and Moore as Bond.

The three of them make the best James Bond. :D

it was just the fact that Brosnan was in the right age frame for the Bond in my universe.

It's Pierce Brosnan, not "Broson".

I misspell it once? and you're being that anal about it when i wrote it correctly so many other times? Jeas... makes me wonder why i bother posting pictures here.

Stop being so picky. If you go through all the posts on the board, you'll find that they're rife with mistypes and misspellings. And that's what most of them are -- mistypes, and not people not knowing how to spell things. We also have a lot of foreign posters who don't have English as their first language. And there is a lot of bad grammar as well. No one cares, unless someone is using it as the basis of a joke (in which case you should put a smiley in to indicate that it's merely a joke and not a critique). As long as it's understandable no one cares about misspellings, mistypes, or bad grammar. Get used to it.


Nate, don't even pay attention to that post. Keep posting pictures!

Hmmm, maybe, just maybe our ShadoWarrior friend is actually Mr PB himself? :eek:
Why else would anyone get so anal about a name?

Since you asked so nicely Paul the two pictures i was going to post when i read the nitpic on misspelling PB's surname... :)

I did some experiments on drawing their noses, let me know if you like this way better than the other ways i have been drawing them.

Four times in the same post (twice in one sentence), which constitutes a pattern, not an accidental typo. I didn't, and haven't, commented on other spelling mistakes in this, or any other, thread on this board. Misspelling proper names isn't the same as making other typos, especially when it's done repeatedly, indicating that the writer probably doesn't know what the guy's name is. Flaming me, as several people have done, for politely pointing out the OP's mistake is far ruder than my trying to correct his mistake.

oh.. well EXCUSE ME mr. nazi.

do us all a favor and stay out of this thread. if all you're goin gto do is throw negative critism about a damn typo around. if you would look where it fucking matters i've spelled it correctly. and considering the fact the guy in question would be laughing his ass off seeing the misspelling instead o facting like a total cockbite like you are.

NO you are rude. most on here know my writing style and that if i flip letters or miss them it's a typo that comes naturally due to damage to my fingers and a minor case of dsylexia. YOU are the only one making it an issue, everyone else on the site was enjoying the artwork and offering advice to make better pictures. or asking what i use to do them.

if you don't like it, the fuck off and stay out of the threads i start.

Whoa, Nate, I understand that you're upset but you already made your point in the second-last of your posts. I think going in for another crack in your last post and telling another member to f**k off is taking things a little far. I lose my temper sometimes too but dude, seriously. Ease down, you're just grinding metal.

This 'person' chose to target me with his grammer nazi crap Targan, and that is what is pissing me off. Does he do that with anyone else on this site? yes i have a mild case of dyslexia and nerve damage in my hands that has caused my mind to move faster than i can type. I went from being able to type like there was no tomorrow without ANY errors.

The second post was made because said 'person' went in and changed his post that i was responding too. Not just for a second crack at the guy. to to respond to all the crap he added about people defending me being rude. When he was the one being rude in the first place by bringing it up the way he did, without ANY HISTORY of correcting other people's spelling mistakes.

Nate, I'm not going to get into whether or not you have a legitimate grievance, and I understand you're upset. We value your contributions and that's why I'm being nice. I didn't want to have to spell it out but now I'll make it clear. Telling someone to f**k off in open forum is unacceptable behaviour. You have been warned. Feel free to send ShadoWarrior a private message expressing your displeasure at his comments.

okay

Nice words of wisdom Hicks. Ease down Ripley! You blown the transaxle, your just grinding metal.:D

Yup, an Aliens reference. My favorite movie of all time ;)

I got to agree there -- just ignore the guy. There are several members of this forum (luckily, none of them have posted for months) that I simply don't answer, regardless of what they say. Just put him on your s**t list, and leave it at that.

There is an "ignore list" everyone can use located in the "user CP".
Good idea to add those you intensely dislike to it.

@All: Please refer to the Forum Guidelines sticky. Thanks.
