Does anyone know a site where I can find a shockwave flash version of the classic Pong game? Not any Pong "extreme" re-makes, just the classic, white paddles black bg version :3 Haven't gotten any luck searching for it.

junkboy, that illustration is sweet.

Faktablad, that video was pretty cool.  Something to recommend if you want to walk around a bunch is this: a cheap steadycam.  It'll help keep the video from jerking crazily.  The mood was very nicely captured, but then the camera started jumping around and it was ruined for me.  Otherwise, cool vid.

Lots of sweet stuff in this thread

Here's a Lupin III illustration I did recently.

Awh dude, this is the kind of stuff which inspires me. Really awesome!

A sort of experiment in which I give myself 15 minutes to fully compose, mix and finalize a song in GarageBand.  Here's the first result:

Don't use photoshop much, made myself into a band member . project was to make some images based on a Band, using my own photography. My hair is my avatar's length, had to photoshop in more.

Behold, my first 3D model ever! With half-assed textures index painted in pro-motion!

[Rox]

Ah yes, I guess I said I'd post my 3D stuff, also. So here's MY first full character in 3D. I put myself in a pickle and only got one weekend to UV map and texture the whole thing, which is WAY TOO LITTLE TIME considering I only ever did one UV map before this time, and that was for a human head... So, very rushed textures and material settings. The physical model, though, I'm pleased with.





Mind you, I too like low-poly models (or at least un-subdivided relatively low-poly ones, around the Unreal Tournament era), but since this was a school project, it was required to be 25000+ polygons, and I had a deadline and all that junk. I think the mask is what I'm most pleased with, for some reason... I think it's the way the color map, bump map, specular map and reflection map all work together in harmony.





I've got another thingy going for school right now. I might post it if I get it to work in time.

[edit] Mirre, those guys are joined by the hip, right? How the heck do they get their underwear on?? [/edit]

Some great stuff happening on this thread.  I love to see what people are working on.  I've been interested in spacesuit design recently:


Also some more flatshade love:
ULTRA low-poly model
a rough attempt at a spaceship model
Rough models made in Wings.  I'm still suck though.  Wish I could change the lighting, I want some full saturation and brightness colours!

Not made by me at all, but still amusing:
Jedi Knight in flatshade mode

And on another front entirely I've proposed a more universal redesign of the familiar male/female washroom icons.

Junkboy: that Lupin III-illu is awesome I love your inking style... how big is the original? Your whole style remind me a bit about Hans Arnold (if you know who that is).


Two of the reasons why the mermaid-update took ages:


Birthday-card for a 13-year-old Warhammer addict. All muscles on this orc are probably wrong because I don't draw muscular people that often.


Halloween Exchange picture for Evey Wong... that's her character dressed up as a vampire.

Woah, blast from the past! Looks like really old, early 90s stuff. I think some of the detail you have in the bump you could have modelled given the fact you have 25k polys at hand. Also it's too uniformly smooth all over the place, looks blobby, if you know what I mean.
