Post a Picture - Something You Created!

Not my doing, but a friends. He took a military ammo box and created a game server. He also modeled the Half Life 2 logo.

First off, that ammo box case is amazing. I always think it's cool when people make just regular stuff into a pc case, but that goes beyond the regular stuff bit into the really cool!

It reminds me of the Wall-E case someone made..

Gah! White text on a gray background makes me angry. And red for the reference words is even worse! Red and gray should not be used in conjunction with text. It's basic typography. I couldn't read past the first paragraph. Was there anything worth reading in that typographic trainwreck?

Edit: Wait a minute. Is there supposed to be and image formed by the red words?

Yeah the Ammo Box is pretty sweet as well as the Wall-E case. I have been wanting to build a full face helmet pc, but just have not had the time or desire to start it.

And these, for the [GWJ]Game as well. But I had to drop out since I just moved to Chicago for a new gig.

Party at someone's house?

Very nice, sir! (ma'am?)

Do you have a site so I can subscribe to your newsletter?

[Edit] Ah, the unexpected bombsfall.com.

Beautiful! Demon's Souls is almost a killer app for me for the PS3, and this makes me want it even more. Are these digital from scratch or do you scan in assets?

Totally adorable work, It makes me happy to see people doing stuff like this on their own.

Thanks so much! These are made of Photoshop + Wacom Intuos3 + like 40 minutes maybe. I did them both on saturday while obsessively refreshing my Dell order page. Finally replacing this 'ol workstation.

Whoa, just watched a bit of your animation. Wow, your aesthetic is beautiful. What do you do your animation in? Do you build your assets in Illustrator and then import them over? ... Let me back up: what's your process, briefly?

Also, 40 minutes!? You animators are so speedy, makes me jealous.

Hey bombs, I'm just about to get a Intuos 4 tablet - do you happen to have one? I've been reading about the crankiness of many users with their pen nibs getting worn down way too quickly, and I'm not really sure if it's a *real* issue or not.

This was taken about 3.5 years ago while helping my son (in the middle) with a science project. On the left is a torsion powered catapult, on the right a trebuchet.

Lol that picture.. I was like, 'Why is his foot circled? I don't get it'. And then I realised it's actually something he's holding :D.

Heh heh. Yeah, it's a hula hoop he was using as a target circle.

I've been a professional artist and animator for 6 years and it dawned on me last week that I had never indulged in the artsy-gamer tradition of fanart. I decided to remedy this immediately.

Demon's Souls was my favorite game of 09 and I had yet to see it get the fanart treatment.

Holy wow, that's awesome.

That there's talent, son. Good work.

A very large drawing (shrunk down a bit):

click for original

I drew in with graphite on a 42x36 piece of vellum and scanned it @ 300 dpi. It's a bit of an impressionistic/conceptual rendering of what an underground library might look like.
