Very impressive paint work. It was entertaining how you used clips from the terminator and ending it with a closing transmission. That was pretty funny and cool and the thumbs up. XD I've recently returned to this community site after years of being offline. Back then I was socially shy, but I came back as a much more confident and stronger individual. Had to slay some inner demons first, and thought it was about time I came back to see how things are around here. ^^ I got to play SC6, and loved it. Though it has been a very long time since I got to play it again. I don't have my own game console. Long story, but I do miss playing it though. Making ends meet, in my journey of financial independence is never an easy road to travel, but I guess, I have my real life matches to contend with. XD Thanks for sharing your art works here. They were really incredible, and inspiring. I hope to contribute some fan arts here soon too. At the moment, I'm just scouting around just to get a feel for this community site once again, since it's been awhile. ^^Well... Been a while. I'm not sure I've ever seen the place deader and I was here before SCV... Tis a shame what with SCVI long being a thing at this point and although I have yet to play this what is no doubt a masterpiece of game engineering notwithstanding I've decided to make this little thread back on good old 8wayrun.
Over the last couple years I've done many quick sketches, some live, some from photography, some big, some small but all relatively fast. Recently I've picked up Control from Remedy Games, it's a rare time to find me playing any games at the moment incidentally which has a rather stunning setting to go with it's photo mode, so I've been taking advantage of that as of late... Also with the recent death of long time player and long time friend of many here 'Mick' given the tragic and horrific apparent nature of the death I've found myself needing to express that also some of which I may share here as well.
But for now I shall leave you with what anyone who knows me here knows me best for... A video. This picture is from my animal sketchbook and begins with a look at the other sketches in the book initially. Seems most appropriate to begin here. Hope it's enjoyable for everyone... Peace.
Many thanks for the kind words. It's nice to see some different faces around although I'm not sure I've had the pleasure? I hope your artwork goes well and I'm glad you're enjoying SC6. I've had a copy since it came out but I could never bring myself to actually try it for some reason. Was a birthday present. My birthday is around the same time it came out. I guess people thought I liked the games. Can't imagine why. Perhaps once again one day. We shall see I guess but for now I still like to hang around here somewhat. Been playing Far Cry 6 for now. Last picture was from that and I've done a couple more since but I've been in a bit of a dry spell as of late.Very impressive paint work.

I guess we're waiting to see if a few things improve.
Haven't been able to get much done lately as I've said. sorry it's taken a while to get back to this but I like to have things to share. As I mentioned in my other thread I actually tried out The Witcher 3 but it's the sort of game that wants a lot of time and I've yet to really get into it.Your very welcome ^^
It's been a very long while since I've been away. When I finally came back, I decided to now take initiative to approach people here online and try and connect. :) That's an awesome birthday present. XD I treated myself to buying SC6 on my birthday. Born on October, I was stoked when they named the quest mode, "Libra of Souls". I happened to be a Libra, so I was a bit hyped about it. It's cool that the game came out around your birthday. I love these fun coincidence. Always fun to think about. ^^ I feel ya. Some games, while it maybe really good and enjoyable, I couldn't bring myself to try or get into also. That came out really well what you did. I've heard of Far Cry6 but I never played any of the FarCry games. I was a bit curious but haven't really looked into it yet. I have been currently playing "The Witcher3:Wild Hunt", on the Nintendo Switch. I usually play in the evening, late at night sometimes, since it's the only time where I won't get distracted or interrupted. XD I do plan on sharing my art work here pretty soon. Been working on a SoulCalibur3 fan comic which was inspired from a student fan film I did back in college. I just gotta figure out how exactly I'll post my fan comics.
I also did my own OC character trailer, just for fun. Kind of like how they did with the canon characters in SC6. I'll be sharing them here pretty soon. :)
Being unique is challenging and awesome at the same time. That's so cool, how you're able to perceive things in that way. Yeah, I completely understand what you're saying. You're able to pick up on many patterns in life like familiar frequencies of information. Not everyone can process information in this way. I used to think I had mental issues myself, but after awhile, I came to the conclusion that there wasn't anything wrong with me, I just think different from most people. The world is quick to throw labels on you, especially if they never take the time to understand where you are coming from. It's they're lost though. Oh I feel you on that sentiment there, where it seems as though they are demanding us not to be our self. I've certainly been there. XD It's a constant battle. We'd have to practically walk on eggshells around them, or as I like to call it, "going black ops" to the pulling out of the rug from beneath their feet if we need to. Well, if push comes to shove. XD We're like the real life X-Men. Though it would be cool if our uniqueness was as flashy as the comics. LOLNot at all. I like reading. Tis a shame all I ever seem to read these days is the internet... I mean usually seeing as this is my thread and everything I'd be thinking no one goes nuts but me to their own peril. But seeing as it's just the two of us for the moment anyway do feel free to share whatever you feel is relevant here.
Seeing as you have I think I'll share a bit about myself. I'm fairly OCD and I move quickly or I don't move at all as I'm fairly considered in everything I do and slow despite the superficial appearance of speed. Sort of like how they say in a moment of extreme peril everything slows down and your life may or may not flash before your eyes concurrently this is how I see things all the time.
It's hard to describe and it mainly gets me looked on like a freak or weirdo as I see all the detail most people overlook and they think it's strange and/or pointless to bother looking. Like it's a waste of time or something but it's never been a bother to me so to speak I just do it without even thinking. Asking me not to would be like asking me not to be me.
Almost the same as wanting me dead.
Often this results in me telling people things and them getting offended for some reason only to later realise the relevance of what I told them regretfully. After a while I'd just shut up and of course when it later becomes clear I could've said something they get offended. There's no winning sometimes. It's almost like people are only interested in what's wrong. Then they listen. Every time. Like they're only ever looking to take advantage of each other and if it seems they can't they're never interested.
I did another quick little Far Cry picture last night anyway. This time from New Dawn. I think I may have shared this photo in the other thread also. Just felt like it. Not doing all that much still. My mum's birthday is also very soon. Sometimes birthdays are like buses. In my family Christmas is just the worst but then my mum gets her own back come Easter.

I kind of enjoyed the CAS in SC5 actually although mostly I just like to make customs for existing characters I enjoyed it as far as it went but generally it's not really my thing. I just like to fight and it does add an interesting edge when you can use all kinds of customs but beyond that it doesn't make much difference to me. I enjoy seeing what other people make more than going on about it myself. Thanks for sharing.Oh, I realized there was no reply button on the video thing, and I wasn't sure how to reply there, so I copied and paste my comment over here just in case.
Thanks so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, it really is lengthy for a trailer. I should have titled it just fan video or something. XD I wasn't sure what to call it at the time, but I love the way the character trailers on youtube were presented. The lengthy aspect resulted in me trying to share the origin of my character from the first game that introduced the CAS mode, and made him out as a character that can travel from one dimension to another, portraying him as the same character from both the original and new timeline. From the Cadet in Grandall Empire to Conduit of Astral Fissures. XD
I hope I can do another one like this in the near future. ^^;
This is kind of interesting to think about also but I find it's something that the more you think about the more you end up over complicating everything. It just is what it is like we're just here talking about it. Comparing it to comics is interesting thinking about how that's what comes of such things. The X-Men was always about discrimination, civil rights or so they say, but I think it's more of a general thing. Courage is the same thing whether it's a soldier landing at Normandy or a woman sitting on a seat in a bus.Being unique is challenging and awesome at the same time.

Well, I think you're an amazing individual. Reading the insights you shared in your posts was an eye opener for me and thought provoking. These are amazing traits that us creative artist are born with, and with experience, time and practice, wow...there's no limit to such potentials. This came out really cool. Great visual perspective and lighting. Very serene and romantic looking. That's super cool. I like drawing some stuff for my mom when ever I get the chance to do so. :) I usually bring my comics over and have her read it, and enjoy her reaction. I used to read my literature novel to my mom and sister, like a reading time, and get their feedbacks on their thoughts of my story and stuff. It's a great way to spend time with family. I miss doing that. It's a long complicated story, but we hang out when ever we could. ^^
Great imagery on the second one also. The lighting really adds a very unique perspective, in the way the character is walking by with rifle shouldered. It's like a mind set of a tactical planner, just overlooking the domino set up before, the right time to tip them all over. It's hard to explain, but I can see and understand the way the night time and the lighting is set up. Aw man, I can't find the words, but seeing them, I'm familiar with this perspective. That inner calmness. The two images portray, inner calmness and clarity of mind. I think that's what I'm fishing for. XD
Awesome work. :)
