Dorkyfresh Sketches and Drawings

[doommachine]

I really don't understand why people seem to have this complete inability to just ignore an ignoramus.

 

[DJ BLASTER]

the point is that this is dorky's thread and we should help him out.
i didnt think the deltoid (sp) looked correct on the batman wip that he was making, it looked to comic bookish, if it was drawn more realisticaly it would make the pic look better. and the phoenix pic: her left leg's thigh seems too thin and if someone's arm is as thick as their leg it just looks weird. and the solid snake face looks awkward, but thats a sketch so its pointless to break it apart with criticism.

and for you 2 year-olds i was joking about the phd in anatomy. i actually have a phd in nuclear physics. and i can also fly.

 

[DorkyFresh]

But, posting his art as an attack like that is just as dick-ish as anything he said. Way to be immature Dorky.

wait a minute....it's immature for me to post his art even though he posted nosebleed's art himself? i'm sorry but i didn't do anything he didn't do himself...

now THOSE are fair critiques...i can accept those. you gave me input while telling me my weaknesses. if you're gonna give a critique...do it just like that. thanks for pointing those out for me. i'll make a note of them...

and btw college degrees and transcripts dont mean a thing if you dont have any art to show besides this:

?? What did I do? What's wrong with that drawing?

 

[Saint]

I wouldn't bother arguing with DJ: his first post made it clear that he has some sort of personal vendetta going on against DorkyFresh, and this actually has nothing to do with the art at all. Most probably, he's jealous because DF is simply better at figure drawing than he is (judging from his DeviantArt account).

I mean, I don't like DF either--we had several run ins on the Begins boards that didn't go so well--but I'm not going to pretend his stuff sucks because of that. His work certainly outclasses mine.

DJ just needs to grow up.

 

[DorkyFresh]

i appreciate that Saint...i'm glad that, even though you and i have had it out before, you're able to see past that and judge fairly. kudos to you for that and thanks for backing me on this issue.

 

[RAMORE]

thanks for backin' me up guys...i'm not sure why DJ Blaster felt the need to post those things but thanks for speakin' up.

anyway, i felt like doing a quick sketch of what i would do if i could change Supes' suit.

bumping to the next page cause i like it.

 

[RAMORE]

before i start...just letting ya'll know, i know how to take constructive criticism and i took notice of what you guys typed and i'm not saying i'm right or you guys are wrong, i'm just giving my reasons why i made the design the way i did.



about the cape attachment...i didn't want something that looks like he just tucked it in. i love the way Donner's Superman has his cape attached, but i wanted something different...something that would convey Superman's SUPERness and that's when i remembered sketch of Kirk Alyn's Superman (you're exactly right, Wushuboy). the artist drew the cape attachment in such a way that it looked almost like a uniform and that's what i wanted Supes' costume to look like....a Kryptonian/alien uniform. i'll make another drawing, later, to show you what i mean.

i have to disagree about Superman without red underwear....there have been redesigns out there that get rid of the undies while still keeping the Superman LOOK. i don't think any design will ever replace the underwear, but i think Superman is still Superman if he forgets his undies.


well...i'd thougth about doing a cross between a Kingdom Come \s/ and the original, but when i look at the original (even the hybrid Kingdom Come/original shield) it still looks TOO much like an "s" to me. i know it's a far stretch to think an alien could look and act exactly like us, but it's even further of a fetch that they have a character in their language that happens to look like an "s" as much as the current \S/ does. my brother was looking at one day and said something that stuck in my mind. the diamond shape with one diagonal line running through it looks much more like an alien character than the original shield does...and that's why i love the idea so much, because it still looks like an "S" while making it look more alien. i know a lot of people aren't gonna like it but i'm just giving you the reason why i made the "S" look like that.


thanks and yes, i did that on purpose. i tried making the colors more dramatic but in the end....the subtlety made it look better i think.


the yellow piping was something that i had to struggle with. at first, i wasn't going to add it....but then i got to thinking about Supes' colors. i wanted Superman to look almost....royal. and red and blue alone didn't make him look much like royalty, plus...adding yellow makes him look that much more like Supes....so i added piping. admittedly it still didn't turn out as good as i'd hoped, but i think that's just because i didn't draw it right. i'll probably do another sketch. as for the cape attachment...see my reply to Wushuboy, hehe.

and i WILL post this is in the DC thread. thanks again, guys, for checkin' out my stuff (that didn't sound right, haha!)

I understand and agree with most of these reasons. Well thought out i think!!

 

[RAMORE]

Who peed in your Corn Flakes?

This is so funny i might have to add it to my sig

 

[DorkyFresh]

thanks ramore, i managed to find the drawing of Kirk Alyn i was talking about.

mine looks a little different, but you can see what i mean. the cape attachment makes his costume look more like a uniform and that's what i was going for. maybe i should've drawn it differently...

 

[RAMORE]

Yeah i've seen that costume before i like your cape better. I dunno maybe bigger folds would look different. one you said the uniform thing it made more sense.

 

[RAMORE]

Already one good comment about the supes on the dc redesign thread.

 

[DJ BLASTER]

man that dj blaster guy is an idiot.

 

[ToddIsDead]

He sure is!

 

[DorkyFresh]

alright guys...can we drop it please? i'd like to get back to discussing art instead of jumping down each other's throats if ya'll don't mind.

 

[DJ BLASTER]

man that Dorkyfresh guy is an idiot

[Mee]

No way does your stuff suck. I like your latest pic though I've got no idea who it is. By the way, I'm still waiting on the finished version of that Batman Begins vs ninjas thing you were doin.

 

[Mrh7448]

Your work is good. The only thing I don't like is the mouth really. It doesn't quite look like it's part of her face, but separate somehow. I think it might be the shading around it.

 

[DorkyFresh]

and i agree, mrh...there's somethin' bout her mouth that makes it look weird.

 

[DorkyFresh]
