I am getting a little better at it , but there are those that do fantastic work natually. All I can say is practice. I have been drawing ships for a long time, about 9 years , and my ability hasn't yet reached the level of most people's on this forum. Art of any kind takes practice.<p>Sincerely <br>Thomas Gage <bear><p>------------------<br>Hello Galaxy<p><small>[This message was edited by bear on June 17, 1999.]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#A3B9CC"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Cargile</b> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(1999,5,17,23,23,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">June 17, 1999</span> <span class="timeformat-0">11:23 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> that is true. I posted some stuff here that I did about nine years ago just to show that my old ships sucked too. (and some of you still liked them! geez.)<p>I started doing color presentations because of RW's outstanding work in that area. He is still the master at that.<p>So please don't let my work discourage you. And don't think that one single style of art is better than another. I like Baloo's stuff. His ships are very simplistic and small (which probably allows him to do every view with ease--my ships are a nightmare to draw one view based on another, which is why I only often bother with doing one view.) And Baloo's ships are cool,especially after you read is tech data on them.<p>To be honest I usually don't give comment on novices' artwork unless I am asked straight up to give critique. I know people draw at different levels and I remark if I think we are at the same level, unless a novice completely surprises me, as Sunspot has done once. <P>------------------<BR>"I'll try a roll."<p><i>Obscure SW:TPM quote</i><p> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>RW</b> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(1999,5,18,16,4,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">June 18, 1999</span> <span class="timeformat-0">04:04 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <br>I won't say my designs are that good, but I must admit I.."aquired"..better software, but if you don't have it that shouldn't discourage you from designing yourself, even if you can't make 16-bit colour shaded views.
