Title: First of a series
Post by: Sir Squid Diddimus on February 22, 2009, 07:28:01 PM

I found these disgustingly cute 2x2 canvases at Mr Squid's dad's art shop, so I had to get some. Only thing I could think to do with them is something equally as cute. So here's tiny robot #1

I like them, who cares if someone else has similar robot drawings?

Post by: Raphaella on February 24, 2009, 08:47:27 PM

phhhhhffft! Those red robots are not nearly as great as these tiny robots. Squids have heart, as well as the occasional owl.

Title: Re: First of a series
Post by: Sir Squid Diddimus on February 25, 2009, 05:39:58 AM

one i just did.
the color is actually some kind of teal. it's a really bad photo, i took it with my laptop cam. so it sucks.
i had to add the owl in the corner cause Mr Squid said i couldn't do it.
that'll teach him to doubt me.

I love these! Squid, how come I've been here over a year and I had no idea you paint until this week?

Title: Re: First of a series
Post by: Sir Squid Diddimus on February 25, 2009, 06:05:49 PM

cause i haven't picked up a paintbrush in about 2 years or so.
i actually hate painting and these are the first ones i've ever painted that i actually like.

ever.

and i mailed that heart thing out a little while ago. you should get it in 3 day or 3 weeks. post here is kinda dumb.

Owls and robots. It's the kind of thing you'd never think of, but makes it's own absurd memetic sense. Nice! :mittens:

Have you heard of Fanélie Rosier? (http://www.genuineimitation.com/archives/events/05/07/index.html)

I think you're taking that style to a higher level by doing it by hand.

Something usually gets lost in the hypersterile world of vector art, which I think you're capturing.

Title: Re: First of a series
Post by: Sir Squid Diddimus on March 10, 2009, 12:34:48 AM

never heard of her.
does she do all that on a computer?
i can't draw worth a shit on those tablet things or any other computer type doodad.
i'm too old fashioned.
i need paper and pencil, yo.

I like. It's just VAUGELY Art Deco.
I'm also a sucker for the "staring off at the horizon" look.
