In 2011 I decided to draw Dark Mirror in comic form during study hall in high school. It is 35 pages long. ( is that a record? lol). Also, I used composition notebook paper, and my handwriting is small, so it's kinda ugly. I did a better job the farther I got. If you think it's boring, skip to chapter 8, that's where the battle starts. Brickshelf has not approved my registration after signing up 5 days ago, and I cant try again... so Im going to try my Deviant Art account if that's ok. Right now, I am starting a comic for Dwellers in Darkness. http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-216107698 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-1-216108480 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-2-216108891 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-3-216109209 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-4-216110358 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-5-216111690 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-6-216112202 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-7-216113002 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-8-216113771 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-9-216114237 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-10-216114735 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-11-216269849 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-12-216270856 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-13-216271367 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-14-216272294 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-15-216272853 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-16-216279388 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-17-216280099 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-18-216280673 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-19-216281313 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-20-216281868 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-21-216346034 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-22-216346458 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-23-216347040 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-24-216347289 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-25-216347589 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-26-216348005 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-27-216348277 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-28-216348613 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-29-216348814 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-30-216349105 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-31-216349317 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-32-216349547 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-33-216349708 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-34-216349965 http://stupidjedi.deviantart.com/art/Bionicle-Dark-Mirror-Comic-35-216350488

I've just finished registering all the MOCs for BrickFair that people have sent me, and just in time too as MOCs submitted after today (ie in the next 20 minutes of typing this) won't have their MOC cards printed out and I'd have had to do that myself. And what dawned on me was how cool our fanbase is that we have art to go along with our MOCs. Aside from Greg Hyland's art here and there, I can't think of another theme displayed at conventions that have fan-made art accompanying their MOCs, aside from the MOCs themselves. And that is something for all you artists to pat yourselves on the back for. -CF (Five days! (My festivities start in 2!))

Hey, everypony! I know I haven't blogged in a while but I figured I ought to share what my plans are for Brickfair VA this year. Yep, my brothers and I will be going again this year, as has become a tradition. I'm a bit sad that this means I can't make it to BronyCon, which is going to be in Baltimore the very same weekend, but hopefully next year the two events will be scheduled on different weekends but BronyCon will remain near my home in Virginia. Anyway, I've already registered my MOCs for Brickfair. Most of them are Hero Factory MOCs this time around, which is nice, since last year I ended up spending so much of my time near the BIONICLE table anyway. I will be bringing Kit Martello (who has been modded somewhat since I entered her in BBCC#64), Koboldon in both his Before Mutation and After Mutation forms (who I'm now allowed to mention was a contest entry in the "Before & After Brain Attack" contest on Eurobricks forums, which is currently in voting), and my Hero Factory Canine Buddy (who has had minor cosmetic alterations for his IRL debut). Rise of the Dread Colossus, an Atlantis MOC which Lyichir and I exhibited last year, will be making a return appearance. I will also be bringing some of my LEGO-related artwork to display. It's nothing too impressive but it was well-received last year and I've gotten a couple drawings done since then. Natalie Breez, Jaller, Captain of the Guard, The Venerable Turaga Vakama, Swarm of the Century, Kai and Family, and Captain of the Guard (not to be confused with the previous Jaller drawing I mentioned). I have other LEGO art such as my MLP:FiM/Ninjago crossover drawing Welcoming Cousin Spitfire, but I do not know if I'll be exhibiting it because it is sketchier and has never been brought to any level of finality. I will, however, be bringing my drawing folder in case I want to share any of my less finished or less LEGO-related art with any other artists in attendance, just as I did last year. I'm very much looking forward to visiting the vendor area, where I hope to get some bulk Hero Factory parts like I did last year (that decision definitely paid off) and some more specific System elements I've lately found myself in need of. I'm not entirely sure what I can expect to find, but since last year there was no shortage of parts from 2011 Hero Factory sets (which I imagine the sellers may have picked up on clearance), then I hope to see an abundance of parts from 2012 Hero Factory sets and Super Heroes constraction sets this time around. Most importantly, though, I'm looking forward to spending time with people I've gotten to know online, including some of my more recent acquaintances from Brickset, Flickr, BZPower, and Eurobricks, as well as many of my older friends from BZPower like Lady Kopaka, Turakii #1 Lava Surfer, Toa Lhikan Hordika, and Omicron. Many in this latter category are friends who have not been especially active on BZPower for a long time, for one reason or another, but whom I've kept tabs with on Facebook and other sites. I'm wondering about possibly bringing my iPod and a small stereo to Brickfair. I find Brickfair is very, very often lacking in terms of music. Last year at the BIONICLE tables someone brought some music and it really livened things up. Plus, I happen to have a decent amount of LEGO music on my iPod: the BIONICLE Power Pack, all the Cryoshell songs used in BIONICLE promotions, and over two and a half hours of music from the Ninjago soundtrack. I'm not entirely settled on bringing music but I'm thinking it could be worthwhile at least on the non-public days (Thursday and Friday). If you want to find me at Brickfair, I'll most likely spend most of my time either walking the show floor or hanging out at the BIONICLE tables with the BZPower crowd. You should be able to recognize me by my badge, which will be bigger but otherwise mostly unchanged from last year. And perhaps also by my glasses and hair which are not all that different from how they appear on the sigfig in my avatar. I look forward to connecting with many people I've met online this year, and I hope we can exchange contact details so I can possibly deepen some of those relationships!

http://imgur.com/a/ziTE2#0This is an album of the work I have done in photoshop over the past week or so. I'm still learning, but I think what I have so far is decent. What do you guys think? Constructive criticism is appreciated. If you do like what I've made and want me to make you something, PM me. - Draven

This was a request I did for someone outside of BZP who wanted me to draw one of his MOC's, which I chose Furnace. It was challenging for me especially because now I'm breaking out of the standard Bionicle Toa/Matoran/etc. torso designs and trying to figure out to connect the limbs and such (I can see so many mistakes in the perspective...) On the plus side, this time, I tried out using Photoshop's Color Balance adjustment to color the black and white drawing. I think I did alright there Original MOC by 3rdeye88 Furnace Link Medium: Copic Markers, White Gel Pen/Pencil, Photoshop

This is a drawing of Tahu I did a long time ago. I recently got a desktop scanner, so I decided to put it on here. I'm not much of an artist, but I liked the Japanese in the background. I thought it made for a matrix-y kinda thing. Thoughts?
-
A request done for Disturbulator on another site. Photoshop is so awesome. I might just do all my drawings in black and white and color it using Photoshop. Materials: Prismacolor Cool Grey Markers, White colored pencil on gray toned paper

Hi guys. So, I've decided to partake in the T-Shirt contest for this year. I have four designs overall, but right now, I've only finished one. #1 Front: LINK BACK (If applicable): LINK I feel that the simplicity is effective and cool. EDIT: I fixed the color problem!

One thing that bugs me, and which I hear a lot from people looking at drawings or playing Minecraft, is the tendency to look at anything that's been done well, and remark that they would never be able to make something as good as that. This is especially irritating in Minecraft, where we're all working with the same cubic-meter blocks of material, and thus there is no really good reason to think that any particular piece of work is impossible for you to match. The idea of someone being naturally talented beyond anyone else's ability to match is, to me, ridiculous. No one's first attempt at architecture, with no background in it or Minecraft, was as good as what some people have made in Minecraft. M.C. Escher did not wake up one morning, with no background at all in drawing surreal geometries, and start producing art. J.S. Bach's first experience with music, almost assuredly, did not immediately result in any famous compositions. Getting good at something took time for them, and it will take time for anyone looking to follow in their footsteps - they were not born doing what they do/did, but rather worked to do it and do it well. If you really want to be good at it too, study the principles of the artform, and practice. Practice until you're sure more practicing isn't actually possible, and then continue practicing. Because if one more person looks at something I've built or drawn [i don't show compositions to non-musicians, because I can't get them to sit still long enough] and says 'Wow, I could never build/draw like that,' I'm going to chase them around the world with a diamond pickaxe and set their weird squarish wooden shack on fire.

On a non-Nic Cage related note, I'm thinking about buying a tablet with this money specifically given for me to do something fun with and the money I make from mowing. Now, none of you have ever seen my art because I can only draw things well on a dry erase board. I tried fitting one into a scanner. Didn't work. So, I was curious as to what tablet you guys use for your art/which you think is best. Preferably at $200 or less. Currently I'm thinking a Nexus 7, but... Oh, and I'm actually building a MOC, though my biology has gotten way too far into my brain. I'm trying to build a DNA strand out of LEGOs. Hoo-ray.

Hi guys. I guess it's time for me to invade the "General Art" forum. This is something that's been going and coming off and on for a while in my head. I've been thinking about drawing a Toa of Time with an adaptive armor Vahi. Honestly, I like my Vahi a lot: ^Click for larger pic^ Here's the body: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/CKinVA/Avatars/finished_project.jpg I gave him a scythe for no reason. Also, I have settled on a name for him: Vohan. As always, I am open to any C&C! NOTE: This is my first serious sketch of a bionicle figure. Also, for a MoC, since I don't have an actual Vahi, should I use the '08 Kakama Nuva?
-
Hi guys, I've decided to sketch all six Toa Mata. To start it off, I've made Lewa and Tahu. LEWA TAHU I know that the (digital) pictures aren't the best. I'll try to get you guys better ones. C&C is welcome and encouraged!
-
Here is a chalk-drawing of Lewa I made: I was aiming for silliness. So, I didn't really try to do much. :/ IMO, it's a recognizable, simple drawing.
-
A semi-setstyle Tahu inspired mostly by the D'Anda comics. His right arm is a bit messed up but I'd like to say it was twisted out of shape by a Bohrok or a lava surfing accident or something of the sort. I don't know why I neglected to put in the flame sword.

It's Lewa on a bridge. (I hope I did it right this time.) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/lkmk/art/lewa.png

It's Lewa on a bridge. Why is he on a bridge? I don't know. Probably out on a quest or something. Comments and criticism appreciated!

What's your funniest fart moments ? Mine is eating fart pranks on the Internet

These last few weeks have been... Fascinating. There's no other word for it.
-
So I haven't put very much on BZP for a while, so I thought I'd put this up here! The most Chibi Anime Tahu I've ever drawn This has had a bit of a patchup on one leg, where there was an accident with the pen. This was drawn to celebrate me finding some really terrible, half-dry textas. Critique is very welcome!

I drew Onua Mistika before, wasn't quite happy with it [it's that darn mask!] Actually when I was starting over here with the mask design, I do understand why and how they chose that design for a functional aerodynamic feel. This is a new one I decide to do, mostly changing some aspects of the Mistika design. I knew that I wanted Onua to be the heavy gunner type of the Toa, so I gave him a BIG GUN and made him more of a support Toa hence the hovering. I played with the idea of adding gyros to the gun as well as a stabilization gimmick [hey carrying big guns all the time is tiring!] though it probably wouldn't work in real life as it would mess with the whole firing from the hip aspect That officially finishes off my list of Mistika drawings [Tahu, Gali, Onua DONE!] LINK Prismacolor Cool Grey Markers, PITT pens, while gel pen on grey paper Previous Drawing of Onua Mistika

I drew this for a school assignment, and I thought I'd share it with you guys. Yes, I know the lines look like , they scanned funky and not even hours of GIMP editing could fix them completely. Enjoy!
