Didn't even know this technology existed. Incredible.

No problem! :D

These books combined will cover all the fundamentals, in so much detail and technical accuracy you'll feel like you have 10 year art college degree sitting on your shelf.

"How to Draw" - Scott Robertson (Technical manual on drawing in perspective)
"How to Render" - Scott Robertson (Plotting Light, Cast Shadows, Core Shadows, Bouncelight, and Reflections in perspective)
"Imaginative Realism" - James Gurney (Explains the artistic process from start to finish in creating imagination driven…

Very not endangered, I can do it. There's much better books than this one to actually learn the techniques. Like most art books, this looks more like an overview on what you should be doing filled with cool and inspiring final pieces, but not explaining how to get there.

I think this is a good time to stop arguing. I won't respond so... yeah... looking for the right way to provide some sort of closure without reopening wounds, but it all seems a bit awkward, maybe we don't need closure, but im a bit sentimental, so I wish you no bad will, that's really what im trying to say and…

Okay fine, wont be bitter. It was interesting and thought provoking to some extent.

That's absurd. You can't criticize drugs without the people. Without people, the drugs have no effect. Its a mushroom in a field or a plant by a highway. It's the effects on a person which draw the criticism, and therefore they bare the brunt of the criticism. That should be obvious. But if you need me to spell out…

Do drugs, i'd vote to legalize them, shows how pious I am that I have no interest in preventing people from taking them. I criticize them, heavily. Yes, but there's a enormous difference. You seem to have a low tolerance towards people heavily criticizing them, that's your deal. I don't take the middle of the road on…

You'll have to define the "original" argument because I'm not a mind reader.
Everything qualifies as art, a toothpick qualifies as art. Qualifying as art has never been more meaningless, it's modern definition couldn't more more relativistic. So consider me not a fan of art, at least not the full spectrum, I am a fan…

I've done a ton of them, but its irrelevant, go ahead do drugs. Not the first person to buy into the romanticizing and won't be the last. There's an effect call the Dunning-Kruger effect where if you're below a certain intelligence you aren't smart enough to gauge your own intelligence, its physically impossible.…

Haha, glad I wasn't the only one. Agreed, the artist also shows his ignorance about computers. A computer doesn't use ASCII code to store or represent an image on screen, ever, period. The code he is looking at is a level of abstraction to make debugging for programmers easier to understand, the computer stores and…

Sorry for having a wider range of emotions than permanently happy. I get bitter and despite what the dopes will tell you, dissatisfaction is a huge source of motivation and productive energy... Suuuure if you get too dissatisfied you end up lethargic and depressed, everyone knows that, but the right amount of misery…

Eh, for me, its another matrix speech for the recently enlightened. You can have your definition of art, Ill have mine, your's seems to be quite broad, mine must be a sub-genre that requires talent and hard work.

I thought it was super impressive, it nailed what it was going for perfectly, sure it could have been smarter or more serious, you have to remember there has never been a game more collectively polished, expansive and cohesive and it set a new standard for AAA and when you are that ground breaking, you're going to…

Long rambling speech on what is reality, concluding on a muddled rhetorical question detailing his confusion about the artists intent. It's a long waffly way of telling people, you don't get it.

So what does it mean... now they have unveiled it??? zombies r coming :(((( ???

Makes more all the more excited for modular phones

its bloody gorgeous.

Took him 8 paragraphs to say what I did in one.
