Hey, I like little boys.
 
Work in progress. Open Canvas. Probably the best thing I've ever made.

C&C appreciated.

You work is quite good, but scares me.

The face is technically pretty good artwork but pseudo art part is dumb. Modern "art" is crap. Modern art is related to our tolerance pushing media, because if everyone could not make good art then they might feel bad. Therefore any suspected artwork is good in a surreal way.

Scott does modern-esque art? DAMN YOU SCOTT.

Maybe you should get to know your art a little bit better, Methril :) This isn't 'modern art', this is Scott's art.

I really like it, I wtf'd when I saw the detail. One of your best, I would agree.

Crono 05-30-2005 03:22 PM

art-wise its probably good but from an everyday perspective its just freaky.

Darlene159 05-30-2005 03:38 PM

The detail in the face is excellent

protagonist 05-30-2005 03:56 PM

I like the face, except for one thing: the detail leads you to expect a realistic head shape. The head you have is quite round, and while such a head is possible, I'd expect at least a fold of skin around the chin area and up the sides of the face (to show a double chin or something).

The detailing on the fact is quite excellent, but the shape of the head kind of draws your attention away because, while the rest of it looks natural, the head doesn't quite fit the level of detail. It seems to have gone beyond a cartoonistic style and into a more semi-realistic style, detail-wise. Also, there is a dab of lighter color on the left side of the hair that looks like it shouldn't be there.

Would you call the sculptures from "Nightmare Before Christmas" art? How about people who draw charicatures? Do you consider that art? I would. Scott has an alternative style which is very different and very refreshing. It's a gothic style, to me, meaning that darker elements of humanity creep through.

When I see his work I think dementia, insanity, dark thoughts, and so on. It's not just a drab, boring painting of trees or leaves or mountains or other landscapes; each face and character has a personality. A good artist is able to evoke emotions and thoughts from the people who view their pieces, just as a good poet can do the same.

First. Good. Post. Ever.

CheeToS2 05-30-2005 09:38 PM

Scott's art often reminds me of a lonlier version of Krinkles. They both have strange legs and heads encompassed with something. I like Scott's stuff more, though :)

GoZelda 05-30-2005 09:41 PM

Quality-wise it definitly is the best you've made, but it's definitly not my favorite piece of your art.

Nitkizi 05-30-2005 10:29 PM

That. Is. Awesome.

Zero Hour 05-30-2005 10:36 PM

That's ****ing freaky.

Redwizard 05-31-2005 05:06 AM

very freaky, but amazing

Poptart 07-29-2005 06:56 AM

hmm interesting style of weirdness. reminds me of the band "the locust" and their eerie sence of imagination. but overall this would make a great salad fingers episode :P
nice work

Soul-Blade 07-29-2005 07:26 AM

This has most certainly inspired me. Not because of the quality, but because I finally come to realize how truly pure evil Scott is =P. I think I will get back to posting in these forums in the coming months to combat scotts evil works with works of good. Whatever that means, I will find out soon enough =P.

XxDarkrazorxX 07-31-2005 11:40 PM

For the uneducated, yes.

Bl0nkt 08-01-2005 12:53 AM

Emo bangs? :eek:

Nice shading by the way. If I knew anything about art, I'd be more of a critic. :frown:

GillespieTAG 08-21-2005 09:42 PM

I love it. It's wierd looking. I love wierd.
