Jaesguamarj, the slave liberator

Very good.  If the hair was a bit longer it would be more-or-less what I wanted for Johan.  And please do give us more info on this collaborative comic thing - I'm intrigued now.

[James StarRunner]

Oh, ok. That info will help with your pic then and I'll for sure keep everyone updated on the comic thing.

[James StarRunner]

What? You were expecting a half naked girl or something? Shame on you! Everyone should know me better than that. And I... umm... I'm going to get some clothes now...

[xHaZxMaTx]

Actually, I wasn't expecting a topless girl because there was no warning in the thread title.

[GabrielsThoughts]

It reminds me a little of the nekkid picture of Sheila, where the artist said he was drawing his werejaguar naked and just drew a picture of a jaguar giving the audience sass... I guess what I'm trying to say is your five years too late for that trick to work.

but good job anyway.

[Zedd]

Nice rugged chest you have James...*traces a claw on it* It shows you work out 

[Aridas]

aiee! nay-kud! *runs in the opposite direction james is probably running from being caught topless*

I swear you're making these things faster and faster.

I could've umm... broke rules... or something...

... I guess what I'm trying to say is your five years too late for that trick to work.

Well, it's new to me...

Nice rugged chest you have James...*traces a claw on it* It shows you work out 

Ack! Don't! I hardly have any oversized sweatdrops left!

I swear you're making these things faster and faster.

Truth be told I had about a dozen pictures sketched out before, but unfinished. Even still, when I do have time to work on something I'm generally finding I am getting faster.

aiee! nay-kud! *runs in the opposite direction james is probably running from being caught topless*

Urr... ya, good adea. *starts running away from the lady fans.*

[Kenji]

Now the question is... why are you in your boxers and nothing but? o:
As well as why your Michael Jackson costume is incomplete. I don't see rhinestones on that glove, boy!

[Zedd]

He also forgot the guy fans too!

[Tapewolf]

You're doomed, James.  It starts out with that but in a year's time you'll be drawing dodgy pictures of dobermans like Zina did :twisted

I'd suggest you concentrate a bit lower and practice drawing some knees.  You might be able to get away with it in baggy trousers, but with shorts it's gonna be a problem.

**EDIT**

And to quote Hunter S. Thompson: "Sh*t, have you studied this photograph?  What kind of a maniac would roam around Vegas with one black glove?"

Nice work BTW, although it's faintly disturbing that you decided to do it at all

[Boog]

Gah! Not topless pic I expected! No fair. 

[Supercheese]

Oh, c'mon, you didn't expect this? I thought it was rather obvious...

(So that's where your new Cafe avatar comes from...)

[e_voyager]

chucles come on bogey iwhats did you expect? still it's better the my topless pick would have been

[James StarRunner]

You're doomed, James.  It starts out with that but in a year's time you'll be drawing dodgy pictures of dobermans like Zina did :twisted

Hmm... I hope not. Zina's not a bad artist, but I did this pic to show a point. The point being that nobody should expect me to draw any porn (even if offered money to do so). We'll see what happens in a year, it'll probably just be me getting better at drawing without lowering my standards.

Good.  For a while there I was afraid you were heading in the other direction 

[Zedd]

Now put some clothes on or I pounce yous

[e_voyager]

Zedd don't threaten they arties espillif if you wan this to draw a full nude self portrad

[Kitome Feathertail]

You know, I don't see what the big deal is, I only wear a pair of gloves and no one seems to care about that, you two leggers and your clothes, so strange.
That aside, great pic, it amuses me.

[Zedd]

But your a cute taur never less Kit *pets*

[James StarRunner]

Zedd don't threaten they arties espillif if you wan this to draw a full nude self portrad

Hmm? Did you say what I thought you did? I'm not drawing any nude portraits for anyone (unless it's like Matilda type nude and even then I'd get uncomfortable).

[Kitome Feathertail]

It's a good thing you are not in my advanced drawing class, Nude models every monday, yeay for college drawing class, not really I hate it, which is why when class is over I turn them into fantasy creatures, made one an angel and the other a sea elf, got yelled at when I did that in class XD

[Supercheese]

Bah. It's art - they should let you do what you think is the best. Anything else would be stifling the 'creative spirit' or soemthing like that.

*add IMO(s) where necesarry*

It's kinda funny like that. Art itself is suppost to be creative. I've heard of drawing classes where they wear flesh coloured body suits. I really would like to take an actual art class though. I was a special guest in one for an hour and I learned tons! (So ya, I'm pretty much self taught. I lost a lot of time with trial and error)

Bah. It's art - they should let you do what you think is the best. Anything else would be stifling the 'creative spirit' or soemthing like that.

Ya, exactly.

[Zedd]

Its like Mr Bean goes to school all over again

[e_voyager]

thats works for me but then i was just treasin zedd. you might look nice as a cober tay you know

[Zina]

You're doomed, James.  It starts out with that but in a year's time you'll be drawing dodgy pictures of dobermans like Zina did :twisted

...exactly how many dodgy pictures of dobermans have you seen from me? XD

[Tapewolf]

One, and that was enough.  D:
Don't get me wrong, you're a great artist, but I do find furry porn kind of disturbing.

I take it that doesn't doesn't extend to male 'taurs along the lines of Kitome?  I'd say that's akin to drawing the jaguars, which are after all, technically naked.

[llearch n'n'daCorna]

Bah. It's art - they should let you do what you think is the best. Anything else would be stifling the 'creative spirit' or soemthing like that.

Ya, exactly.

Actually, I suspect they're trying to teach you a specific skillset - so they're assigning a task (draw this nude) and judging how well you can do the various elbows and suchlike, and what focus you put on it, etc.

I highly doubt they're -thinking- in such a structured manner, since that's very much a left-brain type thought, and artists are strongly right-brain, but that's the idea. Which explains why they get so shirty when you break the rules - they can't judge the focus and the elbows, sinceyou've changed the entire focus of the pic by adding other bits, like wings or scales etc...

I like to think I'm talking sense, here. So can anyone tell me if I'm speaking through my hat? :-)

Matt appreciates you took the time to look at him, though. *fades*
