hey artistic people

Postby brc64 » 17 Apr 2008, 13:30

I've been thinking about changing my avatar (here and other places), and I thinking it would be cool to have a comic or manga-like drawing of myself to use, but I have no artistic skill whatsoever. Thanks to excessive use of tags, I have a collection of pictures with me in them on my flickr account, but I don't really have anything to offer in terms of compensation other than my gratitude and acknowledgment of how awesome you are.

So, if anybody wants to try cartoonifying me, here's some material to pull from:

So terrifyingly amazing, my eyes just committed suicide, for they knew that nothing they would ever see would be as beautiful as Tensen's work.

The reflections in the glasses need work.

this thread is awesome. tensen, you're pretty rad. someday you're going to have to come to terms with that. that being said, i don't think the avatar is as amazing as everyone is making it out to be. good, none the less.

Better. The large version has greatly-improved reflections.

Sadly, I don't feel they work quite as well in the small version. The compression makes them look grainier.

Oh, wow, that's awesome. Tensen is the coolest! Thanks! The LoadingReadyRun shirt really is a nice touch, too. I wish I had artistic talent. Really, thanks again!

Do we not have the ability to add our own custom titles? If not, could a crewmember set mine to something along the lines of "Avatar by Tensen01", or "Tensen01 is awesome", or so on?

Titles are not given, they are earned... unless they're just given, in which case they are not earned, unless they are given through earning.

Tensen deserves all the respect he can get, and twice it again.

Assuming the LRRcast ever has any more challenges, I say we pool our collective efforts into a title for brc64. Unless, you know, someone does something exceptionally amazing to deserve one. Then we can wait another week to do it.
