Didn't drink that much last night if I'm honest. Went camping though (y)

Problem is that very few people actually recognized that it was Silent Hill. So not many people even made the connection when they seen us.

But yah, thanks comments on the costumes. One last Pic.

That's such an American thing to say. Psh...

On another note, I just finished my game, and now al of a sudden I have some spare time... And I have no idea what to do with it...

Wow, how did you make the head on pyramid head?

Very interesting.

I'm having some weird bugs. I use AS3 but I code on the timeline, on one frame I have my menu on the next one I have my game etc. When the player dies you have all the regular 'you made it to level x' messages etc. and the player can choose to go back to the menu (which is the previous frame). Now when I click the 'go back to menu' butotn I have sound clips from previous frames playing, the framerate seems to be doubled, there are movieclips on stage that shouldn't be there etc. There are no error warnings, no nothing. Logically everything seems to be in order, I just can't think of anything that would be wrong. Any suggestions?

Made all of the geometry with cardboard. Used some tubing i found for the tubes in the side and bought some wire for the wire mesh face. Filled in the cracks and cardboardy looking parts with paper mache. Then used a paint medium called molding paste to create a texture all over (with a close detail you can see alot of nice texture). Spray painted it black. Used acrylic paint over that to give it its final look.

Took a good amount of work. Might be getting a tatoo of Pyramid head from one of the prizes i got a bar last night.

Good stuff. Very Whovian.

Last night. A lot of beer, many pot shots, and I passed out after puking around 7:30 PM. lol
I want to take a long break from the booze I think. Wait til' new years or somethin' 'til my next beer.

All my friends ended up doing mushrooms. Poor mom. lol My one friend broke the laundry machine and I'm paying for a new one or to fix it.

Still had fun. My only goal was to have fun with my friends. Didn't expect to be the only drunk and feel kind of embarrassed.

Well numbers has stolen the show but I went as a pirate...

@23450
Best costume EVER!
How can your girlfriend see?

She can't, that's why she goes out with 23450!

ZIIING!

holy shit devart is horrible. apparently i'm the first person to ever say anything bad about this person's art.

i agree with whoever said (i think it was luis) that devart is a place full of soccer moms. you can't go wrong

GRAAAHHHH

and than she hid the comment i made from public view because i gave her critique.

wtf.

You can hide comments on deviantart? Why even make art if you don't want constructive criticism?

I think anime at that level (low) is more of an acceptance into some sort of community rather than actually being good at drawing. that's why those people are saying 'cute' instead of anything artistic related

but then she'd never improve, because no one tells her what she needs to fix to get higher than acceptance level.

Yeah, I'm talking about an 'anime' community though, rather than an 'artistic' community. Like to be accepted by other anime lovers, you have to be able to trace or crudely draw the most popular characters

Awesome comment.
Love the last part lol.
Wtf is kawai anyways :S ?

it means cute, i fuckin HATE how so many non japanese girls think they're being cute by spamming those 2 words (cute and thanks in japanese). IMO, if you don't speak the language and the entire sentence prior is NOT in japanese, theres no reason the last word should be.

Even i don't do that, and i SPEAK Japanese >__<

Lol i'm the opposite, i'll be all like "nihongo wo tanoshii dayo, anata ga suki desu . . . . CUTE!!!"

>_>

<_<

Haha, you're the second person to tell me that this reminds them of Doctor Who. I've only seen an episode or two, but I can see the resemblance. Thanks!

"I know you want polite criticism and all, but seeing as you've hidden my friends constructive criticism, i'm just being blunt. "

thanks for backing me up man!

Yeesh, you'd think that with the movie having come out, even your average joe would recognize a flawless recreation of two of the characters. Hats off to you anyhow.

Not sure if anyone remembers me having posed the question of "What will be this year's overdone costume?", but in Toronto, the results were Hunter S. Thompson (how current...) and The Joker (again, but this time the nurse version).

My prediction bombed. I didn't see a single MJ, but our neighbours were nice enough to play Thriller on loop for several hours on their front porch.

tl;dr

how many times did you start doing the dance?

I'm really buzzed from two cups of coffee this mornin'.

I don't understand animating on caffine guys - it's too fast, too rushed, they say the coffee helps and makes ya more creative but I can't be creative when the thought I'm thinking about is a few sentences ahead of me.

On the other hand its Hilarius because it makes animating so intense. Though I like drawing when my hand stays still and find a lot more control z-ing happens on coffee.

Anyway enough I have a midterm in poetry to take today and then poetry to write. Wish me luck my reg peeps!

Little Things in games

Lil things are important. Like having a lil' sound FX play each time the character hits the ground. I did it in demenius darkness but I'm fumbling figuring it out in my next game but got some ideas. Other things like in-game dialogue separate from cutscenes. The dude walks up to some traps and the character has his own comments. Really helps playing as the character or getting into the created world.

Backgrounds
I feel I have more experience as a character animator. lol As my favorite bits are focusing on makin the animated dude come to life with the right blinks and facial expression or arm movements. Can't wait til the more action filled Duder episodesto animate more violence. But ya I feel I'm a shit BG artist though I'm getting there. Perhaps the next peice of mine to the art portal will be a practice BG. I'll have to take a good look at some of Adam Phillips animations to learn how it makes it so beautiful - I bet just looking at it I can pick some things up.

Oh shi-
Midterm starts in 30 mins and I'm a 35 min walk away. Peace guys!

Caffeine doesn't make you more creative, it makes you more focused.
So it helps to have a plan ahead of time.

At least, it's been GOD for me getting my work done. You don't code 6000 lines in a week on sweat and tears alone (that was one crazy week back in april that I don't think I'll ever be able to replicate).

Also I think I'm over my withdrawal. I'll wait another week or so before starting up again.

Hey everybody, how was your Halloween?
I stayed home all day and threw rocks at tricker beaters.

I was finishing up my Halloween flash the whole day, scrambling to get it done it time for the contest. I do hope it takes a prize, but there are a lot of really good entries this year. I'm just glad to have it finished, it's been haunting me this whole month!
