[Lemog]

Hello, Hi, good morning or good night for you all my friends...

I'm late for all today... late for the good morning, but also late in my job, late in my personal works, late in this drawing, late to learn ZB... late in my thoughts, and especially late for the spamming cession...

To anwser you about this project... it's not a real secret... I will post a resume to explain all very soon... but for that too... I'm very late...

...the White Rabbit Mode is mine actually. But it's my total fault... I'm trying to do more than I can do :shrug: where is the super french nut ? :banghead: hahahaha

[daWinky]

...the White Rabbit Mode is mine actually. But it's my total fault... I'm trying to do more than I can do :shrug: where is the super french nut ? :banghead: hahahaha

Hey Laurent,

in this case I just slow down a little, sort things out, set some priorities...and take a long walk in the cold january weather and think of ...nothing;) . Next day I'm there again with double speed... May be this works for you too...:)

-sabrina

[Gunilla]

...the White Rabbit Mode is mine actually. But it's my total fault... I'm trying to do more than I can do :shrug: where is the super french nut ? :banghead: hahahaha

Don't worry, dear! The Super french nut is there , just resting a bit. So, as Sabie says, slow down, take one thing at the time and remeber - you have the rest of your life to spam on.
We don't go anywhere... good luck with all your projects and in finding your "inner Nut" again:D

That's a good book title, right? "Ten ways to find your inner Nut" :D

[Rebeccak]

Orig posted by Gunie: That's a good book title, right? "Ten ways to find your inner Nut" :D
I'm searching Amazon.com right now!

[Lemog]

Hey my girls :buttrock: hahaha...

in fact... the inner nut is not really in slow-mode... just that my actual works is not visible... much little ant's work... head in books... hands on the scanner...
...of course... nothing to show here. :shrug:


The only thing I can post for the moment... it's little more work on the drawing... but it's very timid :p
...a little bit ashamed... only started legs :blush:


http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c54/lemog/ofdw10_3_wip_02.jpg


mmmh.. very strange brush... the drawing, reduced... appear blured... but not in the real size... don't really know if I can modify that for the next steps... :rolleyes:

[Squibbit]

fascinating style that yours, gotta try it someday


.

[Zapan]

Right , it's really unusual way to process , but I do like to style you're going on ! :)
The last painting looks great , love the contrast you give with shadows... kind of dramatic mood.

[MichaelZHsee]

interesting technique~how did u do that?

[Lemog]

Morning :buttrock:

More of late today... a little update of my last evening work... always not finish... but I have started an another drawing...

http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c54/lemog/ofdw10_3_wip_03.jpg

But I must finish this one before... :)

[makaron]

good day Lemog
really nice colors, a bit of nutshade on them... haha.. sorry, could not resist.. :p
but keep on going. looking good :D

[Lemog]

interesting technique~how did u do that?

How ? I really don't know exactly... I work on a big paper size in photoshop (3000x4500) with a black backround...
I don't know the name of this brush... "effet pointillisme" in french... maybe "Pointillist effect" ? with 50% opacity...
I try to work not too much zoomed... to have a global vision, and to not focus too much to the odd details...

Close-up of detail at 100%

[Lemog]

hahahaha... great minds Mona... I think the same thing about fury skin, while preparing the close-up... hahaha... maybe a Pink Rabbit soon then :scream:

[makaron]

Maybe you can send me a photo ? :scream: moahahahahah :banghead:

[makaron]

BTW, the brush you use looks really useful, I´m gonna try that kind later on, if I paint a human of course.. thanks for showing the close up :)

[shyamshriram]

Good going Lemog:thumbsup:

Keep posting :scream:

[Gunilla]

Oh yay! She's looking fine, monsieur :thumbsup:
Are you using one brush only for the strokes or different ones?
I really like these black background paintings, the light gets so intense...very appealing.

Oh, and good morning :)

[Lemog]

shyam -> slowly, but I will continue to post... nobody can stop me :thumbsup: hahahaha


Gunilla -> normally, one brush... but when I stop to work on it for doing another thing in photoshop... of course I used other brushes... and when I restart to work on it... I don't always find the good brush in the first test :scream: :banghead: ... as you can see the horrible part of the ear... but fortunetely less visible in little size :blush: hahaha

[Lemog]

Trying something harder...


http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c54/lemog/ofdw10_3_wip_06.jpg

[Rebeccak]

Good morning, Lolo!

Glad to see you back in action!

[Lemog]

Morning Beckie... in action... yes... but this one is not finish...

I've tryed to work on an another thing yesterday...

as I'm actually preparing the new 3d project... I'm also working on a little website dedicated to this project... and I started a picture for the index page of it.

I prepare the pic and I post the beginning in few minutes... :thumbsup:

[Lemog]

Well... this new 3d project is a little bit ambitious... I hope not too much... we will see...

I've planed to do the reconstruction in 3d of the Paris Word's Fair of 1900...

It's a time I like a lot... and this year is a real cross of centuries, and for many reasons... architectures, technologies, arts, etc... it was one of the most fabulous exhibition...

Lot of originality and much different things to discover... that start with nation's pavilions along the Seine river... a reconstitution of a Medieval Paris... a swiss village... and many many other incredible things...

In first, I've planed to realize only few pavilions for still images... but with the time... I thought why not to do more, maybe all or a large parts of them... and maybe a movie...

...but the movie, it's an another story... much work to do before.

And that already start with a big documentation's searching work... I hope to really start with a first pavillion at the end of january... I hope because remain me much search to do...

To store properly all these documentation, I actually realize a little website, soon online... next week perhaps...

And for this one, I need a picture for the first page... something as the good reflect of this Paris World's Fair...

I have a reference, a picture of the french issue of this time, L'ILLUSTRATION, representing the statue at the top of the monumental gate of the exhibition... this statue of woman symbolize the town of paris, realized by M. Moreau-Vauthier, in the style of 1900. I will add certainly a view of the monumental entrance behind...

I hope you like this project... very NUT in fact...




Here's the started drawing with the reference :

[Rebeccak]

Lolo,

I cannot WAIT for this project to proceed...very exciting, it promises to be an adventure! :) I hope that you will post links for us to follow as even I cannot justify this project as "Anatomical" in nature :D ~ but leave us a few cookie crumbs to your project thread if you create one...and we will definitely correspond with you there. :)

Cheers, :)

[gpepper]

Expo universelle ? ça me rappelle qqchose...
La tour eiffel tout ça...

[Gunilla]

You really seem to be flying with your paintings now... I like the last ones!
You already know how exited I am about your new project - it's going to be so fun to see it evolve in your ususal speedy style

... I'm also working on a little website dedicated to this project... and I started a picture for the index page of it.

But it's terrible to see you manage to do two websites before I got mine done ... :banghead: :banghead:

Good luck for the first steps with the project... a movie, huh? That is really interesting, you got me all curious now. :)

[Lemog]

Lolo,

~Rebeccak
Of course you will be able to follow this... but I'm ok with, difficult to follow that in the anat thread... but I will certainly find some times to do some 2d pieces... It's really pleasant to take times here... with you all. A real pleasure for all days.

But now, I cross my finger to have the energy for this project... it's not for few months but certainly for 2 years... at least, if I want to realize the movie.

I must continue during the realization time to find documentations, and take contacts with passionated or specialists. Remain today too many things unknown. I will start with the most easy for me, the alignment of the Nation's Pavilion along the Seine river...
...in order :
italian - turkish - united states - austria - bosnia herzegovia - hungary - great britain - belgium - norway - germany - spain - monaco - sweden - greece - serbia...

I must choose one of these pavilions, to start, the one with the most documentation, to validate the ability of realization, the technic, the style, etc...

...well, more details soon... and for the next years :scream: hahahaha



Expo universelle ? ça me rappelle qqchose...
La tour eiffel tout ça...
The Eiffel Tower ? yes, of course, this tower will be here too... but it was not build for this exhibition but for the previous one, in 1889... I'm a specialist now :twisted: hahaha :thumbsup:

[Rebeccak]

Lolo,

Do you plan to set up a thread somewhere, or will you be just posting work to your website?

[Lemog]

You really seem to be flying with your paintings now... I like the last ones!
You already know how exited I am about your new project - it's going to be so fun to see it evolve in your ususal speedy style
It's kind of you to said that, and that make me very happy... as you can imagine, I'm very exiting too... but at least as I'm very afraid too... I'm afraid to can't do this project... It's very big... will see then...



But it's terrible to see you manage to do two websites before I got mine done ... :banghead: :banghead:
Don't worry girl... you know, mines are really simple... no real graphic interface, just something practicle to manage and update...



Good luck for the first steps with the project... a movie, huh? That is really interesting, you got me all curious now. :)
The movie will be the final finality :wise: ... don't know for the moment... If it's possible, I don't want to do a simple documentary... but something with a real story... maybe just a very simple story, but that can be add the little "more" than a documentary as many others...
Thanks for wishes honey :bowdown:

[Zapan]

Oh dear God , when you're talking about a big project , that's not a joke !! :eek: :eek: :eek:

And of course I'm really excited about that ... ok , seeing the level of details you got on a library , what it woul be with an entire city ? and not a tiny one ... THE BIG one.

Let me say that is really ambitious , like every project you've done so far , and of course we will all be there to support you , and spam... a little .

Can't wait for the BIGLEMOGPROJECT link ...

btw , aren't you afraid that you're PC is gonna explode ?... just a thought.

[Lemog]

Lolo,

Do you plan to set up a thread somewhere, or will you be just posting work to your website? :)

Cheers, :)

~Rebeccak
Don't really know for the moment... but certainly I will do a thread somewhere (CgTalk ? :eek: )... that will be certainly an extra energy boost for me during this long creating time... to keep all my energy :thumbsup: (and give me much fun...) and certainly a good thing to share this project with people, not ?

I will post certainly on an other forum, a little french one dedicated to the World's Fair... for less artistics or 3d aspects, more for documentations questions or problems or to meet specialists... (for the moment, we're only 5 members... and only one spammer :scream: hahahaha)

Thanks for you interest Beckie :thumbsup:

[Rebeccak]

Lolo,

Are you kidding me? You HAVE to post here, or we will attack you with spam! Oh, well, I guess that would happen either way, wouldn't it? :D

Cheers, :)

~Rebeccak

[Lemog]

Zapan -> Thanks for you support too Stéph... that will be precious for me... sure :thumbsup:

About the level of detail... I must find an intermediate level... if not... it's sure that I can't finish this kind of project... I must work very properly... and don't to try to do "all" details as usually... all is not visible... and that will be not visible will be not builded, promised :bounce:

It's the reason why I must validate that kind of limits with the first Pavilions... to know exactly where I go...

@+ :)

[Lemog]

Lolo,

Are you kidding me? You HAVE to post here, or we will attack you with spam! Oh, well, I guess that would happen either way, wouldn't it? :D

Good morning Laurent!

I've just read the comments about your latest project:eek: . I'm very impressed in advance - really big, really ambitious and of course really interesting...:)
I'm sure it will be a pleasure to follow your realisation, can't wait to see the first pavilion...and I agree that for this kind of project a good documentation and research is essential, so I'm waiting curiously for the new website:bounce: . And of course I hope to see a thread of yours dedicated to this theme on cgtalk...I think this is the kind of project everybody is interested in.

And with this amount of work you're planning I don't even dare to ask if we will see some more of your 2d pictures:D ...btw: very nice work on your picture for the first page!!

Morning, Lolo,

Nice to see your OFDW 010 piece, and I'm sure you'll have much to occupy your time now, so much less 2D from you ~ looking forward to following your 3D thread, though, wherever it lands, and will be sure to continue to be spamtastic there.

Lovely reconstruction of the figure in the Reference image for your new project ~ good luck with that, can't wait to see what develops!

[default-rol]

Hey Lemog

I'm officially adding my name to your massive fan base as of this morning! :scream:

The statue colours are brilliant and I love the feel of your latest nude painting!!

Becca also pointed me the direction of your website over the weekend and I was stunned. As a person who is going to have to model a few environments in MAYA for their MA course this year, I know that I now have access to some serious knowledge (and textures) from your brilliant URL. :thumbsup:

Thank you THE Lemog!!

GOOD MORNING....LEMOG...:wavey: ....:)

I like your last painting... sculptured with paint and light look....NICE...:thumbsup:

About that WORLDS FAIR...Is that the one where they gathered people from all
the tribes, and brought them there...If so, I hope you give them the DIGNITY they
deserve, in your painting...I think it was lacking in the original event, do to the mind set
at that point in time. THE HUMAN ZOO DISPLAY...Just a thought for your work of art...
Good luck with your project...Think it is a GREAT IDEA...:bounce:

Take Care

[Gunilla]

What's happening here? Are we splitting Lemog today? hhh, can't decide what part I want - yep, I think it has to be his brains :love::D

Laurent - Your lady for the web is coming on beautifully! Your turning into a 2d-er I think... almost a ZB-er soon I guess :)

I'm in late today - but I see you've been really busy! The latest modelpainting looks great.

Have a lovely afternoon!

I would say that I want his shoulders , to carry so much works...

[Lemog]

default.rol -> hahaha... great words for me Michael... maybe too much... thanks ! I really proud that you like my work and my website... thanks again :bowdown:



beckie -> "the Lolo belongs to ALL of us, we must share"... :scream: hahahahaha I can't stop laughing girl... or How to spread lemog's parts :D ...
...take care to the spots :banghead:



Spirit Dreamer -> I understand well your thoughts Glenn about Word's Fair... in fact, my views are very far of displaying something as a zoo or that kind of things.
My goal is more that to celebrate the human ability in arts, architecture, creativity, technics but also in peace... something which can meet the power of the world's people together in the same place...
...of course... much aspects in these exhibitions seem too much to ethnic's entertainement, and it's very disturbing for me too... I prefer to keep the good sides, and the magical way to discover something incredible, modern and inventive, something at the cross of 2 centuries...
Hope my vison is good for you Glenn and to doesn't disappointe you with the future realizations (If I can start what I've planed...). And thanks for you support about this project. :wip:

[Lemog]

GOOD MORNING...LEMOG....:)

Like I said in the Evocatve Painting section a while back..Mother Nature I think...
Said we must be kindred spirits...I still feel that way...:)
I just pointed out the negative, because sometimes that can have a way of reinforcing
and strengthening the positive, in a strange roundabout way....yen and yang
I'm sure the positive will shine as brightly as the SUN in your THEME PARK of the
IMAGINATION...
Can't wait to see more of your idea, ...what you have shown so far looks FABULOUS..:thumbsup:
Hope you are well SOON ...maybe your sickness will give you a chance to just
kick back and IMAGINE...:D

Take Care

Hello Glenn,
You're totally right to point the negative... I had a good exemple of that 2 days ago...
I'm working actually on the documentation, and for that, I read much books or issues of this time... and precisely the evening of the day when you speak about that, I was scanning some old illustrations of pavilions... and as always, I try to copy the comment with. But for this series, I couldn't... couldn't wrote a text very very colonialist... I know it's now only the history, but in this case, not possible for me. But fortunetely, in "all" these many 1900' books I have, only these issues of "le petit journal" are worse like that. Certainly a touch much oriented journalist, but this old issue always try to show "sensational"... that can explain a little the terms... the most sad it's that at any period, we always can find people who appreciate that, very sad...
But finally, I have lot of chance, you're here Glenn... and if you see I follow a bad way... you will be able to prevent me :thumbsup:



so just say a big feel-better-soon *hug* to you...
Thanks girl... but you know, that can be dangerous... to hug with viruses :scream: hahaha



Just can't get enough of the Lemogness. Rock on my friend!:D
hahahahahaha :thumbsup: Thanks mate... more comes soon...



damn will you stop that, it is annoying enough that you are as good as you are with 3d
tsss tsss tsss... :D I'm reddish now... and it's not very beautiful... hahahaha



That's true ! *c'est vrai quoi*

MOAHAHAHAHAHAHA... ça se saurait quand même... :rolleyes: huhu

[agou]

hey Laurent, you did a huge amount of work this time, it's quite impressing. I'm impressed by your motivation too, and you're right, because you've really improved your skills. That can be seen from the beginning of the thread till the end. So,bravo!:bounce:
I'll try to more participate to all this thread, it's very interesting...;)

[Gunilla]

I'm very busy now... I will answer more longer later... just here to post the model choosed for the background... but I will try to give it a similar mood than the statue...

...and result -> tomorrow... good evening everyone :wavey:




This is really impressive! I love the coloring, is it your choice or at the ref? This will become a spectacular model I'm sure... speaking of spectacular... I wonder when the results are announced.
I'm looking forward to take a first peak at the website - don't forget to post the URL :thumbsup:

have a great day!

[Lemog]

I'll try to more participate to all this thread, it's very interesting...;)
Well... you're welcome Sophie... and thanks for your words...
I always try to keep the motivation, but I'm as much people, sometimes, that can be very low... but fortunetely, that come back usually quickly... I need to have projects and occupations to live... and especially to live happy ;)
...and of course, with my new project... I will be very occuped... and then, maybe very happy... alors rendez-vous sur le WIP 3d... :scream:

The latest picture of the gate is only the reference... of course, I was inspired by these colors, but I do something more in the tones of the statue... I post the picture soon... I will go to prepare it now... and a nice day for you :wavey:

[Lemog]

The finished picture now... it's done... I must prepare the first page now... with text... certainly during midday... with little bit of chance... I will be able to post the link this afternoon... :wavey:


I hope the picture and its feeling is good for you... and a good entrance for the website as that was a spectacular entrance for this incredible exhibition in 1900... I hope that will be a good reflect of it...

[ThierryS]

Wow, great Laurent, love that architecture and you rendered it very well, wish I could have been there to see it for real (....but maybe not 'cause I would probably be aroung 110 years old and in a much poorer condition than I am now, therefore no playing with digital painting hehe:scream: )

See ya later and keep up the great 2D work!

[Lemog]

and I´m not scared of virus, so.. *hugs* Lemog...
glad to hear :thumbsup:




that was quick :surprised
Héhé... the last night was very short (sometimes, it's a good thing to be not very well :argh: )... but I've dedicated less time for the background than for the statue... :scream:

Of course Beckie... it's a mix of technics... overpainting to respect proportions... but unfortunetely the ref was not big as I want for my picture work in 4000x3100...:scream: and finally, it was not my goal to have much details... then, painted in Photoshop, not so much precisely, really quickly, knowing the next operation... and after back to Painter with the Dry Palette knife brush to smooth the photshop hard touches of brush.
Then another time in Photoshop to apply a filter "accentuation" on a another layer, and set the opacity to give just the little "touch" of brushes "as hand painted" that I want...
I don't know if that give a real "as hand painted", but it's near to what I like :twisted: hahaha
Last operation to adjust the tones... with a colored layer (color density +)... and that's all...

Good morning everyone, good morning Laurent!

Ah, the German Pavilon especially for me! So nice:love: , thank you...
The entrance is quite strange, but the lighthouse looks familiar to me...it's a replica of the German lighthouse "roter Sand" (red sand) in the North Sea, about 30 m high, not longer at work but still existing under monumental protection:wise: - and the best of all: you can stay there alone over night, playing the lighthouse keeper...:scream:

They have old postcards there from 1900, and of course one of the Expo...

The entrance is quite strange, but the lighthouse looks familiar to me...it's a replica of the German lighthouse "roter Sand" (red sand) in the North Sea, about 30 m high, not longer at work but still existing under monumental protection:wise: - and the best of all: you can stay there alone over night, playing the lighthouse keeper...:scream:

They have old postcards there from 1900, and of course one of the Expo...



btw: I'm glad to see you won the community prize, so deserved...congratulations for this!

Have a nice day:wavey: (http://forums.cgsociety.org/misc.php?do=getsmilies&wysiwyg=1&forumid=0#)!

Hello girl...

thanks for photos and information... of course... the entrance seem strange, cause the low part is a large room for exhibition, see this photo

http://lemog.club.fr/lemog_expo_v1/albums/documentation/pavillons/pavillon_marine_marchande_allemande/normal_panorama_ns_017_180_12.jpg

I read yesterday in a book that describe this lighthouse as the "Bremen Lichthause"... is it really this name ?

...and thanks for congratulations Sabie :thumbsup:

Good morning, Lolo! :)

Glad you have had a good weekend...mine continues, thankfully, as today is a national holiday and we all get to stay at home (yay!) so you'll have the benefit of seeing me around today, lucky you! :scream:

Hoping you are having a good Monday Mr. French Nut Guy! :wavey::D

Morning Beckie... well... no sleep for you then... that would be hard for me if your in spamming mode... and funny of course :scream:
Unfortunetey for me... much work today... and no motivation... :twisted:

I read yesterday in a book that describe this lighthouse as the "Bremen Lichthause"... is it really this name ?


ah yes, I see, another amazing picture...thanks!:)

The towns nearest to the lighthouse are Bremerhaven and Bremen, so it's not totally wrong...but the official (and international) name for it is "Roter Sand" because they really built it on this certain red sand, a quite difficult underground...the first attempt for this failed, but finally they made it and it was the first offshore building of the world:) - so a good choice to show it on the World's Fairy...

Can't belive that you still find time to paint, but I'm glad to see that pic...it comes along very nice:thumbsup: , I can't see that you are really missing your painter's palette knife;) !

Thanks for these precision... really helpfull for me... I must be totally immerged in the subject...
...and that comes ;)



I can't see that you are really missing your painter's palette knife;) !
Well, thanks... don't know if that can give something similar like that... maybe longer for me, but not really sure, becauce before that was done in two steps with two software...

[scootermaya]

I like to see your "mermaid" coming along (you know me).
All in photoshop ? pretty good...:thumbsup: I will try too :bounce:

[Gunilla]

Nice update - I'm sure it will become a nice painting even if you don't use Painter...after all it's just tools, right?

Unfortunetey for me... much work today... and no motivation... :twisted:

It's the same for me, it's like the new year has skyrocked this week... And I have to be much at the office and can't even visit here... lady boss is sitting next to me and follow every stroke :banghead:

Thanks Evan... I'm far to your 2d skills mate... I'm just a beginner you know.
Do you have some news now about the greek pavilion ? :scream: hahahaha... just kidding man... and of course, you're welcome here :beer:

[Lemog]

seems that skin works in photoshop for you too Lemog :) how do you blend the colors?
Well... very simply... I start with little size of airbrush at 100% to put basics tones... and after, larger one at 50%, and I draw over my first pass but very slightly, helped by a low pressure on the stylet... nothing more complicated...

...but unfortunetely, only less of 10 mn by day actually :shrug: in super snail mode...

[makaron]

it getting to look like a family of snails here....

you turn into mr.Snail :eek:
gunilla into mrs.Snail... is Zapan the baby snail then ;)

smart brushwork, :bounce: gonna try that later on for myself... if I do skin soon,
hmm.. maybe I can draw a naked GP, one that got stuck in a razor, so no fur left :p

and hope that you get more than 10 minuts today..

[Gunilla]

Just stepping by to wish you a good morning! Looking forward to see what you make of your ten minutes!

Sure , lot of great things there , but I don't often go there , they're all talking a weird language :)
But some very talented people (from what I know) like Pixopath, or Stuzzi ... Lemog ? you are there too ?

[Rebeccak]

Morning Zapan,

Found a link to my website there this morning, so was just curious. Lol, yes, I learned french over the weekend (I wish!) and now exclusively speak french. Well, except for now.

[Zapan]

Hey you're very good , I understood every single french words you said ... :thumbsup:

DANG spam , sorry Laurent

[Rebeccak]

I'm fluent!

[Gunilla]

Lovely skin, Lolo - doesn't look like a snails at all :scream:

Is it the animations for work that keeps you busy? Or the big project?

Wishing you well for both, and have a great evening.

Beckie - wow, fluent already! You really are talented :thumbsup:

[scootermaya]

I'm fluent! :bounce::scream:
Super !!! Ca va bien Rebeccak :bounce: ?

[Rebeccak]

Ack!!! Oh no, a real french~speaking nut! I am doomed!

I swear, here is a funny french phrase which I will repeat because it is entertaining:

Votre grenouille a mangé mon dejeuner
(or) Your frog has eaten my lunch

[Gunilla]

Votre grenouille a mangé mon dejeuner




Ton dejeuner aussi? :eek:
Je crois que c'est peutetre le pancreas de Lemog? :shrug:

haha - if I got that half-right I'm lucky!

[scootermaya]

What about : "Il est des cas fortuits où tout axes perplexes, bien qu’indubitablement aléatoires, n’en revêtent pas moins des caractères intrinsèques." It's funny too , no ?

[scootermaya]

Ton dejeuner aussi? :eek:
Je crois que c'est peutetre le pancreas de Lemog? :shrug:

haha - if I got that half-right I'm lucky!
No luck ... all perfect ! ecxept that Lemog is not going to feel so good after that :scream:

[Gunilla]

What about : "Il est des cas fortuits où tout axes perplexes, bien qu’indubitablement aléatoires, n’en revêtent pas moins des caractères intrinsèques." It's funny too , no ?

"It is fortuitous occurences where any perplexed axes, although undoubtedly random, are not of with it less intrinsic natures."

The Babelfish translation... but what does it mean? :banghead:

[Gunilla]

No luck ... all perfect ! ecxept that Lemog is not going to feel so good after that :scream:

haha, neither will the frog! :scream:

I seriuosly think of taking a freanch class ... it's really a beautiful language.

[Rebeccak]

"Je pense que la robe est trop petite pour vous"

"I think the dress is too small for you." :D

[scootermaya]

"It is fortuitous occurences where any perplexed axes, although undoubtedly random, are not of with it less intrinsic natures."

The Babelfish translation... but what does it mean? :banghead:

Almost good ! It almost meens nothing, except, "there is nothing less boubtfull that radom situation would provoque something trully unexpected" .. I think :shrug:

[scootermaya]

"Je pense que la robe est trop petite pour vous"

"I think the dress is too small for you." :D

Hhhhmmmm:rolleyes: I wish I can see that one on you :scream:

Also adding a color drawing of the German Imperial Pavilion... on the Nations Street (along the Seine)... very beautiful as you can see... inspired by Nuremberg and Eidelberg houses...

The four sides of the pavilion represent the four elements (water, ground, air, fire)...

Good morning, and really nice update!

I like what you're doing with the subtle colortones in her skin, with some areas more cold than others - perhaps you could push that even further?

And beautiful pictures of the german pavilion! I see Flossies lighthouse is already in it :scream:

[Lemog]

I like what you're doing with the subtle colortones in her skin, with some areas more cold than others - perhaps you could push that even further?
I think you're right dear... I must certainly be patient and wait she will finish... and at this step I will be able to work more on these tones...

But I must be faster to finish this one... It appear that I have a lot my head in the Big Project now :banghead: hahaha...

Maybe next week... I can start the 3d WIP here ? one week before the real beginning... :scream: (one of my personal deadline... hahahaha)

Morning Sabie...

Of course... I prefer the lighthouse too... so pretty not ? Germany was in this expo the country the most represented as we can imagine while seeing this very big pavilion...
...we can find this one on the Nations Street, the other with lighthouse is the house of commercial marine, exists other pavilion in the Vincennes annexes... and many large exhibitions of art, furniture... much things to show the power of the empire.

I've already start to search some good references about this 2 towns... certainly helpful for me...

Next week... I just thinks to start the wip... wip page... modeling, don't think... The first pavilion is not choose for the moment... must choose something really well documented, and for the first, between with medium difficulties...

About started with the german one, it's certainly for this one I have much documents (but not all sides)... but it's a big one, and really complicated (I know, it's not a good reason...)

I continue to work on documentation until next monday, and I will certainly take the decision...

Thanks for your interest about my project...


Something a little strange, actually, I'm trying to take much internet contacts, with other passionated people by these world's fair, in france and all the world... to share informations and so... but unfortunetely, very few answers... we're again only 5 members of the WorldFair Forum... with only living member :scream:

morning Lemog... and That house is good for me... and you know, us swedish, interesting with its original design... and that goes for our looks too... haha..
Well... I think that this pavilion is large for all my swedish friend...
about the originality... it was wrote in issues in 1900 : (something like that...)

Boldest, merriest, most original and most whimsical from those of the Nations Street and aobtained a big success of curiosity.




Hey Lolo, your thread has five stars now - congrats, well deserved :thumbsup:
Thanks Gunie... It's very cool and fine... I love you all my Cg Friends :scream: :thumbsup:

[Lemog]

One of the possible first pavilions of my project maybe can be the Swedish one... I found many new informations, and photos... (it miss again much... but... that's already sounds good...)

About informations, now I know that the wood structure was built by the Eckmann mechanical joinery of Stockhom...

Maybe that can be a good way to find more informations...

A color drawing of it :

http://lemog.club.fr/lemog_expo_v1/albums/documentation/pavillons/pavillon_suede/fig_illus_1900_121C_dp.jpg


An another really well documented is the one of Hungary... very complicated... with much different styles...

[Gunilla]

Wow - that is a wonderful building! I had no idea the swedes did something that funky back then :D


Boldest, merriest, most original and most whimsical

... and doesn't this well describe some people you know around here? ;)

I'll see if I can dig up something useful for you.

[Lemog]

Cloning? :shrug: :scream:
Hahaha... then, maybe you are really ready for more spam with a second me... or just a mini-me ? :scream: hahaha

The feathery thing is a boa :) ~

Spamming with mini~me, lol!

Beautiful work, Lolo, as always impressive...especially given your time constraints...perhaps your really have a mini~me at work?

<serious mode> I think the thing that would really help this is a darker background...this might help to obscure her outline a bit and help her to feel more dimensional...really nice work on the feet, it seems like everyone has become foot experts latel...

Overall realy nice, Lolo...wishing you could participate in OFDW 012...somehow I suspect you will find a way...

</serious mode>

[Lemog]

Boa ? thanks... easy finally... the same in french then...

Of course, the background will be dark... but for the moment, I prefer to keep this one, tones near of the skin... just to see the difference...
It's also the reason why the edge is really visible.
About the foot... I'm the first astonished... it appear very odd closely... but like that, that seem good... then, something that works easily and we doesn't know why... :scream: hahaha

[Rebeccak]

You're a nut!

Okay...expecting OFDW 012 to be finished by Wednesday...chop, chop!

[daWinky]

Morning everyone!

Hey Laurent,

hope you had a good weekend too and I see you already had a good start in the week:) , beautiful update of your nude:thumbsup: ! I agree with Rebecca (of course:D ) about the feet, very nice work! I hope you find some time to finish this...
Something new about your Expo project? You've already decided where to start 3d?...with a little lighthouse to warm up perhaps...?:D

Have a nice day:wavey: (http://forums.cgsociety.org/misc.php?do=getsmilies&wysiwyg=1&forumid=0#)!

[Gunilla]

Great update, Lolo! ... and good morning :)
It's amazing how good you become in 2d in such short time... really!

Hey Sabie - it looks like we're up to a competition - will he start with the German or the Swedish pavillion? :scream:

Just joking, knowing Lemog and his team of mini~me I'm sure all pavillions will be made in notime :thumbsup:

have a great day all!

[Zapan]

fhhh....hmpfff.... deep breath.... Morning Laurent :bounce:

Great update :eek: ... wow
a darker background sounds pretty good , especially for playing with the contrast... :thumbsup:
And nice 'Boa' :curious: :D

and Gunilla and Sabrina : pfff you're both wrong , he obviously will start by the eiffel tower
un peu de chauvinisme que diable... :D

Have a great day and a great week :wavey:

[makaron]

Morning Lolo... you lady gonna look so good with the darker background :thumbsup:
and it´s Boa in swedish too... :p

[scootermaya]

Miam ! I like the close up !:scream:
Can I have a poster when it's finished ?:bounce:

I kind of like the backround this way though ! Is it bad to keep ie if you add some texture on?

Bye the way, it's called a boa in "Scooter" too ! :scream:

[Lemog]

You're a nut!

What can I answer ? :scream:

Really thanks... :bowdown: I really don't know how much... :shrug:

Hey Sabie - it looks like we're up to a competition - will he start with the German or the Swedish pavillion? [/QUOTE]
I like the competition with girls :scream: hahahaha... but maybe I will start with the Hungary one... no hungarian girls here to support me :D hahahaha




and Gunilla and Sabrina : pfff you're both wrong , he obviously will start by the eiffel tower
un peu de chauvinisme que diable... :D


Of course, the eiffel tower comes... but I must follow a certain order... then... the tower is planed in 3 years :twisted:

[Lemog]

Morning Lolo... you lady gonna look so good with the darker background
and it´s Boa in swedish too...
A dark version comes soon... just want to work more on the boa before... :)

No problems for the poster... with or without boa :scream:
As I can see, you're well arrived... good to already heard you Michel :thumbsup:

[Lemog]

Oups... I forget that... a particulary interesting photo of the WorldFair...


As I wrote few days ago... there's in this exhibition a reconstruction of a medieval parts of Paris... 300 meters along the Seine river...

-OK for the dark version ... but very dark? Black? :shrug:

-Naaaaaa, this woman without the boa would be like a breakfast without croissants !

-Yes, I got here (for the others: Bastogne - Belgium) safely, and the timing was exactly as planed ... cool !
I felt so good when I got here that I wanted to go back ! :scream: I love that car (compare to the other one :D )

[Lemog]

I love that car (compare to the other one :D )
the photo... the photo... the photo... :scream:

[makaron]

I like the competition with girls :scream: hahahaha... but maybe I will start with the Hungary one... no hungarian girls here to support me :D hahahaha

but I can act the hungarian girl :D and then I vote for... that you should start with the swedish one :bounce:
arn´t I the smart blondie... haha...

[Lemog]

Sorry dear hungarian girl... even if my preference can be for the swedish one or another one... it's the documentation which decided... not only me... remain me 2 or 3 days to really start the modelling... and the wip...

The most difficult it's certainly to begin something... I hope that comes easily after... :scream:

...I must continue to work on my motivation for the moment :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: hop hop hop...

[Lemog]

a little more work on the boa...

http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c54/lemog/ofdw11_3_wip_08.jpg

[Lemog]

mmmmmmh... definitively... I must change the background for a dark one :scream:

[Gunilla]

mmmmmmh... definitively... I must change the background for a dark one :scream:

I'm not to sure.... the mustard tone you got now, gives a quite interesting, warm mood - like a day in the desert or a foaming bath. Another tone or darker color would certainly make her standing out more, but this remminds me (without obvious reasons) of Klimt :love:

[Lemog]

Good morning Gunie...

that reminds you something as Klimt ? hahaha... I don't know where... but why not... it's certainly good for me :scream:


Some minor modifications with a dark background... no much time yesterday evening... cause I must draw flowers for cards for a friend... :rolleyes: hahaha

http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c54/lemog/ofdw11_3_wip_09.jpg

[scootermaya]

I prefered as well the other backround allthough I'm still looking at the lady :rolleyes: ... Maybe it's because of the contrast too week on her ? And what about the "drapé" of the picture in the last color you gave?

[daWinky]

Morning Laurent!

The darker background looks definitively better! Perhaps just a little darker:twisted: ...and colder...
just if you want to get some of the bluish colors from the reference in there:shrug:
