huh? Thats not very adventurous. All they do is go into peoples houses and take their stuff...

[DOOFY]

then you don't know what repo men actually do,
first off they carry guns, and second they steel stuff without the owner knowing it, the bank or whatnot pays them to collect things, like cars,houses, boats,etc.

its very dangerous because people try to fight back and sometimes they kill the repo man.

[Cobra5]

He's actually not exagerating too much. They do actually take stuff sometimes, without the owners pemision (Because, Legally, the owner is the bank or whoever, and they have a right to take it back.)

I didn't know they carry guns, though.

[BugHunter]

Yea but its a find the guy whos cheating the bank, take their stuff, rinse, repeat type of job... Just because they have a gun doesn't mean its adventurous...

[Cobra5]

Till you meet the guy who cusses you out, and you go to the basement to get his freezer, and you find a dead repo man in it. ~Scare Tactics.

[DOOFY]

yeah,
i saw a show on repoe men once,
one guy got show with a shotgun in the chest and another time the same guy had a shotung go off near his face, hes scared for life.

Sorry to inturupt, but this is the DSi thread, and this is where we post pictures of our work. I told you in school I have been learning how to do comic/manga style CG, and here is my first real try- Not bad if I do say so my self.

I didn't have any lineart readily available, and my scanner isn't working so I can't ask for some, so I went on the internet to look for some. At www.MAHQ.net they have a lot of pictures of mecha and vehicles, and I decided that anyone of these would make a good test subject.

So, I clicked on some robots, saved them to my computer, and started working. Here is the first robot. I'm not sure what show it's from exactly ("Patlabor"...never heard of it).

Only using Paint Shop Pro 7. I would love to get my hands on a human picture, but for now I only have robots.

[BugHunter]

woa, what? You colored that in yourself?! wtf?!

[Cobra5]

Yes, I did it all myself. Coloring, shading, everything. I started with the before picture, opened it in PSP7, and a few hours later that came out.

[palla]

There isn't a whole lot to critisize here. Maybe use some colors other than blue for the majority of your coloring. The shading is excellent and the scratch marks were left in which is good, though the machine still looks very new. For a battle mecha, this is not a good thing.

[DOOFY]

i guess it looks good.

[BugHunter]

Heather, what the hell would you know about art. Will, that looks damn fine. Good job! And thats coming straight from me, amigo! I know good quality when i see it . You even got the shading correct!

[Cobra5]

*Will walks in, Digital paintbrushes in hand, nearly collapsing...*
OH MY GOD!!

Let me assure you, people are harder then robots. And, Females are harder then males.

Breasts are hard to shade.
Knees are harder to shade.
Anything pure white is frustrating to shade.
Folds of clothes are to nearly impossable to shade.


Oy...
I got home form school, ate some after-lunch lunch, and hopped on the computer and started working. I hope you like it- it took me HOURS.

This is a character from another show I've never seen: Slayers. I have no Idea what this character is SUPPOSED to look like colored, but this is how it came out for me.

[BugHunter]

Thats still pretty good, amigo. You're very adept in using computer art work. Me, i go it old school on paper and pencil, hehe.

[palla]

Hey, I know her. ;D

I like this picture except for that I think her cloak/cape should have been another color except white. It looks a little bland this way.
