Post a Picture - Something You Created!

Pages

There's a number of threads with interesting pictures to see - here's your chance to display your inner artist!

Post a picture of something you've created - drawn, modelled, painted, built, hammered, screwed or glued together!

Here's an image of my latest unit for Imperial Winter:

Can't claim credit for the texturing, just the model

What have YOU made?

By the way, there is an arts and crafts thread.
Nice model, though.

/endthread, you win!

I tried doing a search and nothing came up. Why are forum searches always horrible? Seems to be a global constant. -_-.

Mind you, knitting wasn't really what I was expecting!

And, just for Vrikk...

I got bored with my army men and made them move around

I think I have a lot to learn about stop motion

Would that be classified as pure pwnyage?

Neigh?

Ok ok, I'll stop horsing around.

The Mane thing here is that Pawz got pwned. Ok, I'll rein in the fun and stop foaling around now otherwise you might take a fence.

I just realized that my masterpiece's legs are an optical illusion. Partly an act of God, partly MS Paint and a case of Yuengling's fault.

Yeah, the search function is pretty bad. I've always had reasonable luck with it, though.
Besides, knitting is a skill not everyone has!

Switchbreak, that's hilarious. What is that, chili sauce or something? Needs more frames per second though

I have to admit though, the moving chair made me flashback to the Collector ship in ME2...

FTFY

The idea was stolen from a picture found on the internet, but as soon as I saw it I knew I had to make one for myself. Here's the result.

Someone else here made one at the same time (I'm thinking St. Hillary maybe?).

Nope, but now I'm sure tempted!

I remember now.. it was lunabean.

This one's a real GWJ oldie.

These are nothing terribly special, just some papercraft that I have done to relieve my boredom. I printed off the templates from the internet and put my folding skills to work.

The necromancer was a request from Kannon.

Link is definitely one of my favorites. Sadly, he died in a heroic battle with the cat that same night. RIP(es) paper Link.

Good thread!

Lovin' the army war with the cell phone and spatula defenses. Awesome.

BlackSabre's pun rampage was a fun bit as well, if lacking in tack. ^.^

let's see - I made this one when I was going through a Zooropa-U2 phase. Actually, I guess I never stopped; I still love that album.

Here's another when I was much younger and really feeling anti-Apple for some reason:

And another when I got mad at something super-cute named a 'poogle' and made a poogle of my own!

Here's the Platform Bed I made (with a silly nightstand / end table that used no glue or fasteners and can be pulled apart and reassembled from the 4 pieces that it's made of):

and the bookshelf I made for my wife's birthday when we were dating, which was only 6 months late:

An explanation is kinda complicated. It had its roots in this:

which is also rather hard to explain.

How about a short uncomplicated explanation? All I'm seeing are curvy lines... O_O

Looks cool, although also looks like it's taking up someone's entire garage too.

Easier to quote myself, sry if it's a bit weird or badly worded, I write for an audience of myself these days.

preliminary discourse

We think of the ground as a solid immovable form. When the ground throws up a surprise that shakes this belief we are left reeling. We must presuppose a firmness when we build our cities atop it. In Winnipeg we have turf that is referred to as Winnipeg gumbo as it is often more of a mud that is in constant motion. The material property of this gumbo is explainable with various geological theories, but none step into the realm of the mystery. Sometimes when watching piles being driven for a new structure, one pile just seems to keep going; it seems to slip between the cracks of the presumed bed rock below.

It appears to be swallowed up.

Losing a pile like this raises questions in the mind about what we are digging into. What exactly is below us? If Alice in Wonderland is to believed, a whole world is at the end of every rabbit hole. This fictional world gains traction in our minds as we encounter the perceivably impossible, and as we give these fictional worlds more credit we must consider our effect upon them.

Do they think about us?

... as we drive piles from this world to theirs; into theirs. When we lose a pile and it just appears to drop into the ground what has transpired? Do they have a forest of concrete like us a forest of wood?

The mythical underground presents an interesting case study, and a means of evolving parallel narratives of our world and theirs. Similar to the cover of book, the ground acts as a discernable threshold between the fictional narrative and reality. Like my book, The Topological Study of Alice in Wonderland this cover or threshold can be blurred.

Extending this:

into something like this

The piles become bridges between our world and theirs by merging with the character narrative paths.

IMAGE(http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4020/4351629235_885cd38f52.jpg)

In this coexistence the basements and substructures that act as the foundation to our world become communal spaces as they boarder our world and theirs.

Best I've got is a bit of paint.net hack-jobbery.

Since I have it uploaded for sharing anyway:

IMAGE(http://gallery.me.com/mgchaney/100134/Reservation-20Map/web.jpg?ver=12633130740001)

It's a map of the Boy Scout reservation where I've worked for the past several summers. I took a photo of our detailed contour map, put the outposts in the right place, traced in smoothed-out approximations of the trails, and then took the original map back out. Eventually I'll talk the local council into putting it on a blanket or a t-shirt or something.

I created this, as a result of my hobby of coming up with one-liner descriptions for weird web sites back in the mid-1990's:

IMAGE(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/71RT7S5SDSL._SL500_AA240_.gif)

but I didn't finish it because my agreed-upon advance checks stopped coming. Publisher found a very talented woman to flesh it out and finish it. At least I still got a byline.

No Web directory could serve as a better source for the strangest, funnest, and entertainingest sites on the Internet than Yahoo! From the days of its humble beginning, when Stanford University students and Yahoo! founders Jerry Yang and David Filo began compiling the mother of all hotlists, till now ["now" being 1996], when Yahoo! is unquestionably the most famous site on the World Wide Web, this pioneering Internet directory has cataloged everything from The Chia Pet Zoo to the Psychic Chicken Network. Now, in Yahoo! Wild Web Rides, you'll find the ultimate connoisseurs guide to what's hip, odd, innovative, fun, and everything else but boring and useful. Plus, on the book's bonus CD-ROM, you'll find all the software that makes cool sites cool: Shockwave, Streamworks, CU-SeeMe, Ircle, and a bunch of others that push the technological envelope.

Published in '96. I think I want it just for the CD!

Back when the Zinedine Zidane internet meme was hot, these two photoshops I did started getting passed around forums and just about destroyed my web server.

Man, I'll bet I've got some All Your Base pictures around somewhere too, from when that was blowing up.

That just made my day.

I can't find an online copy of the whole flyer that I made, but here's an illustration I did for a "freeze your buns run" 5K race that my sister in law put on last month in southern Utah. Also had him printed on T-shirts.

Edit: Uploaded the flyer.

I did this in the 'Arts and Crafts' thread, but even though no one has tempted me, the whole 'something you created' draws even stronger:
