you'll find a way... call her ;)
Am stilll waiting for her to come round. :)
I'm currently preparing for my GCSE art mock exam, 10 hours long over three days >_<
It starts tomorrow.
You're doing Art? Strange how I'm not doing any mock for mine.
:twisted:
That better? :g
Horns :D ...
appropriate! :g
You should see the picture. ;) :O
:D go on then, lets see ya girlfriend! :)
I'm not posting it publicly. :)
Yeah, it's basically a mini-Unit of work. I chose to do surrealism in the exam, as a unit that I actually did on surrealism (last year) was completely ****ed up by a trainee teacher we had (ah well, she was fit :+) who didn't understand the course. After she left I ended up analyzing 8 pieces of art in a single day in order to get my mark up to a D.
Yes, up to a D :bomb...
Anyway, for this exam I've mainly been focusing on the work of H R Giger, (swiss surrealist artist, designer of alien) which has been reall interesting to do, as most of his work is stuff like this:

http://www.biwook.net/gallery/giger/Giger-art-1.jpg (lower half NSFW)
There's plenty more of his work out there, I'd post more, but a lot of it can only really be described as biomechanical-alien erotica :blarg (still very good quality though, just google image search "H R Giger" and some will pop up, even with safesearch on XD)
when i presented my work done on the G master my teacher said "there is always one in every class I have had since I started teaching that will do work on him, I have become a mini expert on him with the help of my pupils, I love his art but hated the films"
did'nt talk about films to him much after that :D
EDIT: and G masters sculpturs are awsome!!!
thanks for the inspiration omega, designing a meditation chamber and needed some inspiration for the exterior, this will do just nicely
will you be posting/linking to any of your work?
-zer:donutshen
Agreed. Lets see some of your work :)
IMO, most 'art' that I've seen is actually mock-art. What's worse, though is that so much of it is not good. And the form of art known as poetry? Agh. Most of it is prose chopped up into short lines and stacked. :o And that includes most of the poetry contest winning writings.
Uh, I'm gonna stop now instead of wasting my time on anger that won't change the quality of writing or painting at all. Dammit.
Oddly enough, photographic art seems to have a higher percentage of good stuff than other forms.
Before I forget: "good" = "I like it". And uniqueness helps a lot.
Why must you get the good stuff, Adam? I actually wanted to Giger's work for ages, but have to do Cubism. >.<
Don't have much with me at the moment, I'll post a transcription of "Birth Machine" though...

Drawing isn't my strong point, but I seem to be able to analyze work really easily. I tend to just bullshit about what I see in the picture and what it has connotations of, then try and include some longer words in order to look smarter, and end up getting 12-14 out of 15 marks for them...
O_o
Haha, you've revealed your Facebook. That's pretty good, though. I ain't gonna post any of my work though, it's off topic. ;) :g
perhaps a post yo sh&% thread is in order, I'd like to see what other Zoners are constructing/imagining
thanks for the link Omega, cool to see what your doing:nod

Well, I'm currently sculpting the hand from this: http://giger.com/gallery/book-biomechanics-d3.jpg
6 hours in, and I've done the basic shape of arm, hand, all the fingers (no thumb yet), detailed two of them fully and have another one partially done. The main difficulty is working out what the palm and inside side of the fingers looks like, I've decided to make them quite skeletal in appearance.
I have four hours left, part of which has to consist of glazing/rubbing oxide into it after being biscuit fired.
I'm gonna run out of time... >_<
Sorry to double post, but I managed to finish my sculpture in time!
pre-firing images here:

It was more than 24 hours, so it isn't serial posting.
AAaaah!, I recognized that designs, it`s HR Gieger who created Aliens, also I got his art book!.
You have made awesome job in sculptor, no easy task for you.
stevie:)
You guys heard of the AvP game coming out in February?
Oh, yeah. You getting it?
not likely, no console to play it on, and my PC is currently running on an Intel intergrated graphics chipset >_<
Still no PS3? You're letting the side down. ;)
Well,I too don't(won't)have a PS3,although I long for one.Then again,having my "personal" laptop is quite good.I most probably won't have one if you consider my academic grades cause I need extra good grades to get one,and,because of that,will most probably never get to race me(which is sort of good,because I myself think I suck as I am rusty).
Omega-- AWESOME work!! Very nicely done.:rock
Can anyone tell me how to get a BD rip onto my PS3?
I have several files of ~11gb which I'd like to get onto my PS3 but they are stored on my laptop. Can't put them on an external because it would need to be NTFS and not FAT32 blah blah but PS3 can't read NTFS formatted drives (grrrrrrrrr)
I've looked into streaming and that but I'm not really sure where to begin/what is best...
Any ideas? I need my 1080p :nod
Winamp Remote might do something. I'm not sure about how it's set up, but give it a thought. :)
Winamp Remote is tricky. First you have to download the player, open up file sharing ( not reccommended on anything Windows:P ), register the remote player, sync it and you should be all set.
I use TVersity to transfer form PC to PS3 over the wireless. You can directly stream them or just copy the file. I'm not sure about file size limits though, as I never had anything that big. I found it very easy to set up and use though.
groovy, will take a lookskie at this tversity thing :)
...Lance should be proud of all who made it possible :g
(ok ok, I know there were times when we were off-topic, and that just by metioning the W"O word, negates my point but, ehm, whu?)
:eek
100? I'm only seeing 25. :g
meh... this laptop displays only 10 posts per page, that probably explains it me thinks... must be in the settings but I cant be arsed to mess with it. :g I like it better that way...
... either way, it's still like, 1000 posts or thereabouts, right?
