What the title says. Here's a doodle I made when I was bored in Health class!

Unfortunately, I can't draw worth anything.

EDIT: See below for a better picture. Not related to the old one, though.

Decent, but the proportions are definitely wrong. Saber could probably give more advice.

Sorry for the smudges. I'm left-handed. :(

So... draw from right to left? It's different from writing.

coral to complement blue

Did these for Metroid Prime 2d a while back, guess they count.

<-- not finished

'course, they are based directly off of still from the cutscenes in MP, and I'm probably going to redo them eventually. Might do some original metroid stuff too now that I have a tablet.

Not exactly original art, but I tried to give the SA-X a more intense air of badass-ery.

Acrylic on canvas. Other than the visor, I think it turned out well.

That looks fantastic, actually. The visor doesn't look all that bad, but I see what you mean. It looks sort of flat.

I think that's a fist Gamma.

I kinda see what you mean about the visor, but it's not bad enough to overcome the awesome that is the rest of it.

Yes it was based on that picture. I originally was going to have the fancy blue lighting off to the side too, but that didn't happen.

I don't have all my stuff scanned and probly won't get to it either, but I do have another metroid picture. It's in pencil crayon (which is my favorite medium), and it's pretty much a replica of someone's digital fan art I seen back when I started this piece (also, the scale is huge so it took me forever lol)

The issue I have with it is the background looks like blah (but of course, the background wasn't the main focus ;) )

Hated by all

Menace, I think I remember something like that, but a different version, in a multi-photo tribute video on YouTube. The creator of that compilation told me to look at deviantART.

I've definitely seen the original, too. Both are good.

Its because nothing else here was done in paint. Try using something like the gimp

Oh, I don't know. I don't use GIMP and I get along just fine.

YES, that was done in Paint. (And posted in another topic some time ago.)

I know some amazing stuff can be done in paint but everything else above my post was done on paper or a more advanced program. I mentioned the GIMP because its free.

Mister ...

Paint is a decent program if used correctly. I'm just now starting to mess around with the full palette system and am working on a "photo shopped" version of the task-bar for XP. Going from meh-shade of blue to a decent shade of black.

You can make your own color scheme for the task-bar, and actually use it? Yeah, Paint is good when you know what you're doing.

Can do that with pretty much everything in doze. The files that hold the colors have to be stored somewhere, and you'd better believe you can access and change them.

I remember trying to find the images, and I looked for quite a while, but never found them.

I've found things like icons sometimes, but I never knew you could change things like that.
