Heya Aggie, why not try out the OFDWs then with wacom next time? :) I know they can be a little expensive, but there are free apps like ArtRage (the latest version is only $20) so I would encourage you to get into digital art! :)

Ha, the same reason I don't go up against you guys in 3D...lol, that would be funny! Of course, you are always welcome to try your hand in the Anatomy Forum, we have lots of fun activities...:deal:...and nice people as well! :)

[MechaHateChimp]

Hey Becca, just checking in!

The last sketch you submitted for the challenge looks trippy... its like someone took a bite out of the guy on the right... I also really like that last unrelated sketch was that a photo from a new ofdw?

Talk later! - J

[MechaHateChimp]

Ha, the same reason I don't go up against you guys in 3D...lol, that would be funny! ~Rebeccak

Becca, you need to get sucked in... it only takes one time and then you're done... you'll be walking around back alleys at 3 in the morning all like "Yo son, you got sum polys?!?!" :D

Seriously though, it seems daunting at first but its hella fun :)

[NOOB!]

[Lyneran]

you listening, Lye? :)

yup :) thanks so much for the kind words. i was really tempted to join, it looks like a lot of fun, but i've decided i need to do some ofdw's first. just the same i appreciate the encouragement and i will definitely join in a future challenge :) oh and sorry for the late reply wow look at this thread i've missed so much stuff already because of my exams! (school is really bad for one's edumacation :D and you actually took a break?! whoa!)

i really like your idea of making a kind of twilight zone house or box. that looked really creepy when i imagined it. are you going to push through with that or do you have a new concept in mind with the latest update?

ok people rk is taking us deeper into her mind (and it's scary in here!) stick together! :scream:

[storyForge]

so when do you choose a direction and start producing the final image?

[nebezial]

i love these value tests u do, a really mature approach.:thumbsup:

LOL, that last comment about assaulting people with geek speak is pretty funny! :scream:

NOOB!,

Heya, thanks for the comments! I agree this is one thread in need of a direction ~ I will try to find it! :)

@Matt,

I'm having a hard time adjusting to 'mv' ~ why the change? Thanks for joining the spam team!

Each element is just a repetition of this:

Aaah, and the revelation begins , huh, Teach?

[Rebeccak]

storyForge,

Thanks! :D

Queenie,

Hehe, I hope so...still trying to figure out where this is going, but I think the concepts are getting better...I think I need to find Reference *cough* *Martin* so I can make the heads look more believable...as it is, this is just a sketch, and I'm not sure that I can REALLY render 400 small individual heads...:D...this is the time when I think I should really get to know ZBrush...:D

Thanks for the comments guys! :)

Perhaps you can offer Ben a nice plate of cookies so he can make some new poses? And zbrush sounds like an interesting tool. Just keep going at it and something will click. Still feedling with the environment on my piece.

[Rebeccak]

Hmmm...a bribe...:D

BTW, I just posted a wee note on your thread...I think it's time to harrass Martin for Ref. :)

[W-I-L]

just getting scarier now...

new direction_11.

Want to make this sort of farcical...making fun of life's journey. Nothing really deep, but trying to show a person as having a mapped out journey from birth > death...that's really it.

[Ego]

I heard that when you die, your entire life flashes in front of you. I dont think anyone has been able to confirm or deny that . However, madam, this is truely spooky. :D

[Rebeccak]

Queenie, I seriously hope I have friends after this Challenge. :D I swear I'm not some wierdo in real life, but I do love dark artwork. :)

This is supposed to be a bit like modern day Bosch in a way...sort of absurd, and funny in an illustrative way. We'll say where it goes. Maybe I'll even add color. :D

Cheers, :)

~Rebeccak

[RobertoOrtiz]

Queenie, I seriously hope I have friends after this Challenge. :D I swear I'm not some wierdo in real life, but I do love dark artwork. :)


Funny I heard that there have been a rash of disappearances in your neck of the woods in Virginia..... And that skull collection of yours, is plastic right?

Queenie, I seriously hope I have friends after this Challenge. :D I swear I'm not some wierdo in real life, but I do love dark artwork.
It's totally understandable... you will keep your friends without problem I mean... here, it's only art and passion... it's your virtual way... friendship is well real :love:

...and I really like the originality of your medusa heads... :scream: :thumbsup:

[Ego]

Queenie, I seriously hope I have friends after this Challenge. :D I swear I'm not some wierdo in real life, but I do love dark artwork. :)

~Rebeccak
Beh, I don't see why not. Nothing in your piece that would suggest that. In fact the weirder your artwork, the more friends you'll have! Don't worry about that and just keep er, revealing :)

sweet, jellyfishies, now u talkin

[erilaz]

You are really branching out Rebecca, that's brilliant!

[Art2]

every new direction is like a new journey beginning :D

That last concept is very promising :applause:
But portraying a journey of life is a journey already taken.
Or you could present it as a preparation to the journey after life, where the real journey begins.

Ok, this is getting too deep for my shallow person :)
I'll resort to making sex jokes for the rest of the day :D

[Zapan]

Queenie, I seriously hope I have friends after this Challenge. I swear I'm not some wierdo in real life, but I do love dark artwork.

Well I guess it makes one more reason that people likes you , I do like people who have strange personality in some ways , where is the good thing when people are predictable all the time ...
Me like the last medusa direction ... creepy as well but I do like it and I don't know why ... art it is ! Hey maybe I'm a weirdo too ....

chears , :)

[GonzaloGolpe]

Hey! very interesting this last sketch, very ..."mithological"("mithological" term exists in English?:blush: lol)If you want to express the "great" journey of our lives =) and talking about the background, perhaps you could create a changing background too, from left to right or vice versa. Spring- born, winter-death. I don´t know...just an idea:thumbsup:

Cheers!:beer: ;)

▒Zalo▒

[Gunilla]

And I'm hours late for this last turn! :eek:

I suppose I don't have to say I support this fully? Does that make me a weirdo too? :curious: :D

It somehow reminds me a bit of Claudio Jordaos work here, (http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?t=275084) if you haven't seen it - check it out, very interesting.

Good luck on your further proceeding into goryness :thumbsup:

[FrozZT]

That sketch is kind of unpleasant,scary and disturbing.. Didnt mean that in a bad way! :p Im curious how you would do a painting based on that sketch.. Maybe dont have to be curious much longer..? :p

Thanks BBM! :) True what you say about 'a journey of life is a journey already taken'. The way I sort of was thinking about it is that every journey begins and begins and begins...so it's a little cynical in a way, but also it's meant to be a little bit funny. I sort of want them to be paddling a little futilely, even though their destinies are predetermined ~ of course that's really simple, but something I'm going to try to play with a bit more. I guess you can sort of think of these little critters like spores that get released in the ocean or something...there are just thousands of them, paddling about. :)

That's a great idea, Zalo, I think I might try to put something like that in...hmm, although, a part of me likes the stark contrast of black and white, so I'll have to think about that...nice to see you here!

Hi there FrozZT, thanks! :scream: Yeah, hmmm, I will have to think more about the painting...I'd like to make the heads photorealistic and convincing, we'll see...

Thanks for all the great comments guys!

Chee/ars,

~Rebeccak

[mv]

taking an interresting turn!


if I changed nickname, it's because of cgportfolio.. you can't have an "@" in a web adress.

[RobertoOrtiz]

My advice for the "weird Jellyfishes" is for them to have different expressions.


They key is to make them as realistic as possible.


And maybe you could have the Jelly creatures interacting with each other.

Looking forward to more.

[artvandeley]

Girl, that´s sick. Simply sick!

Means: me likes :)

Can somebody please show her how to turn on colors in PS? *hrrhrr*

[beelow]

Jellyfish with human heads, interesting!:hmm: :curious: :surprised

Reminds me of carlos huante kinda sorta, hehe!:thumbsup:

Just droppin by to see what is happenin' in Kimmel's World!:D

[makaron]

haha Beckie... you still have friends even with this swiming jellyfish heads :p

I really hope you keep this one going for a while :) me like it a lot...

Hoola, I was thinking about this sketch and how if you mix this kind of composition with the new sketch, playing with the perspective to make an abstract/figurative and dinamic work? Just an idea:D
See you! ;)

▒Zalo▒

[paperclip]

I await the story behind the jellyfish concept.


To be honest, they're rather scary. Not at all like our own little becca.. :cry:

[Dreamy Kid]

haha it's actually quite interesting to see the other side of becca :twisted:

[Squibbit]

oh dark lady of hidden tentacles has thou abandoned us ?

Hi Rebecca,

So you're in the Challenge too? Cool.
Looking at your image, i can't help not think about Glassworks Video for Bjoerk:

I am also very into jellyfish & deep sea stuff myself. Wonder what you'll do with this image.

Wow, there's a nice tension between the forms which stems from the fact that they don't touch each other. Great atmosphere.


If you can combine all of the "new_direction" concept sketches into one breathtaking composition I can absolutely see this heading for a kind of contemporary Bosch feeling!

hallo Beckie... that lives on the dark side :p

this is a fun thread... always something new to look at... and the latest made me think of me of a gang of nuns that gone bold... I guess it´s not what you have in mind tho...
you go Beckie, show us more and more and more... :bounce:
:wavey:

33 pages and it took me very very much to get to find out your direction to realize you actually head into 14b directions :argh: lol.the jellyfish and dna-tentacles have somethign intriging, the former concept of death by birth was rather rude but interesting. Dead itself probably is the beginning of a journey, birth too, so far a good point to start with but as it looks like you actually have lots of fun creatin things i gotty fight now in my brain not to take over my dreams after this long and sleepless night. :p

Your will to explore: fantastic - your wide range of ideas:wheeee - erm, it take it as you do it and will shut my trap, since i so far am brain dead anyways and take a nice seat in the "becky picture Journey show" let the show go on :)

I guess ur in the lead with the most concept sketches above squib! Now, I have to go give squib some shyt, LOL!:D

Nice sketches as usual! I hope to see something that u are going to settle for! Good luck!:thumbsup:

[gpepper]

Tons of sketches Beckie...
When will you start ? :sad:

[Gunilla]

Morning!
14b - at a first glance the shapes behind their heads looks like silouhettes of hands - is that intentional? Either way - it's an interesting sight ... like something protecting them - or maybe threatening them?
Go on, Beckiebot - this is getting really fascinating :thumbsup:

Hey Rebecca,

the clearer your vision gets the more I am inclined to feel reminded of Dali.

I was a firm believer in Dali from about 17 - 25 and was glued to his "Autumnal Cannibalism" for at least half an hour when I was at the Tate Gallery in London (today I sometimes find myself waking up with clenched fists hating myself for the fact that I only rushed through the whole huge Turner wing of the building - I mean... a whole wing! And I was like..."Nah, where's that Dali?" Damn!)

And the thing I was wondering about is, it seemed to me that Dali had gotten completely out-of fashion, over the last years, like surrealism in general?
So, not for you , I guess? Do you like Dali? And do you think this will be a surrealist piece or is it more like it will be whatever it turns out to be
just wondering...

You mentioned Bosch earlier and I know it's kind of bold to compare him to surrealism, but all in all this is really really approaching the style of images that have been haunting me (in a good way) since my teen days.

[artvandeley]

I guess you´re right , Murat. Reminded me of Dali as well. Especially this Sfumato-Effekt coming from the airbrush.
This is the best one so far imO. Would be great if the one below is rendered in a slightly different color, like a transition or something.


Speaking of color...*knockknock* ;)

[Zapan]

Well it reminds me some illu I saw about "les enfers" of Dante ... where souls are doing nothing but floating because they didn't do anything good or bad in their lives so they can't be send in the particular prisons .... .... .... ... .... .... *slaps self to wake up*



Inspiring work Beckie ! :)

chears ,

[mybutterflyiris]

just curious...do you just draw and see if something developes or do you start with an idea in mind. I ask because it just seems like alot of your stuff is really right brained...at least that is how they look.

[Squibbit]

bwoh, your latest in thumbnail size looks like one of mechahatechimps former avatars

[bumskee]

Heya Rebecca,

:) how's things? looking sweeet as usual, you always had this thing with air brush, hehe brilliant. Very eerie feel to the concepts!! look forward to the progress and best of luck!

cheers,

Min

[BrutalMonk]

Heyy heey! Sup Rebecca?

I love the characters face, only crit from me is that the 3 head could look like different no? Just wondering ... But its nice! Keep it up;):thumbsup:

[Agamemnwn]

awesome values as always, i love the way u move to a more surrealistic approach on the concept :D go becca go becca

[Samanthie]

All very interesting concepts Rebecca! The jellyfish concept had me intrigued but this one does as well. Keep going!:thumbsup:

[daWinky]

Hey Becca!

Just dropped in here to say "Good Morning" and discover some new directions:wavey: !

I still think you're collecting material and inspiration here for the next 10 challenges...:)

Have a nice day!

[DimitrisLiatsos]

I am gathering concepts here..eeheh...Just dropped to say hello to our Lady Rebecca...YOINKS! u turned blue too...hahahah...have fun lady!

:)

[Gunilla]

Just dropping by to see your new concepts...oupps! Cooking something really special now, are you? :wavey: :bounce:
And what's up with the blue avatars? have I missed something here? :banghead: :D
Have a great day sis!

[pushav]

Interesting concepts!:bounce:

[beaux]

Hey Rebeccak, saw your cgportfolio and thought it was nice. Keep it up;)

I hope you're o.k. if I speak openly about the journey piece: I do think your piece is coming along, but I don't see how it relates to the topic? They look like old people in a pond. I imagine you might have a story in here somewhere that probably makes it relate, but I didn't see it anywhere, and I don't think a written tie-in is what's in mind for the competition anyway.

Now that being said, I think your piece would make a great editorial;)
Anywhooten, there's my two-bits, whatever they're worth.

Cheers

[tAstyBITs]

I like this one the best so far. I can really get a strong feeling from it. I hope your planning on pushing if farther you know explore it more.

Anyways I just wanted to give you a thumbs up, this is a very provoking piece.

[BartokDesign]

very interesting art so far , I hope to see it finished.

Good luck.

:thumbsup:

[umbrellasky]

Very intriguing idea Rebecca! Each of your sketches has such an atmosphere to them. Great work!

[Amerasu]

Yay Rebecca! I didn't know you were entering but this has got to be the longest thread in the challenge forum! I'm surprised I missed it, lol

Looks like you already have a bunch of ideas going on here. I've come up with a big fat... one! And I've barely even touched that one idea. I need to get a move on.

Anyway, I really like the painting in post 114. It's very soft and gentle. I know you've moved on (a whole bunch of times!) from there but I really like that one. It's soft and definitely journey like as in dreaming.

Good luck! I'll check back later on to see the new ideas ;)

[SpiritDreamer]

Hihi Gunie,

Thanks a lot, and I'm definitely excited for the new changes * can't believe the forum is on the front page, and now with sub*forums! Yay! :)

It's definitely not just 'my' forum, since it wouldn't be much without everyones' posts, work, and interaction...so I'm really appreciative of everyones' efforts that have allowed the Anatomy Forum (http://forums.cgsociety.org/forumdisplay.php?f=177) to level up! :thumbsup:
