This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Please visit https://lemmy.world/c/artmarket as well! This is a community for artists to post their portfolios and announce availability to take commissions, as well as get visibility for Ko-fi, Patreon, and other funding for art activities.

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

NSFW Policy: Nudity and suggestive content has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity or suggestive content, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity or suggestive content that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude or suggestive subject matter. If you aren't sure if your work is NSFW or not, just ask yourself, "Could I look at this at a typical office job and not get into trouble?" If you're still not sure after that, you should probably mark it as NSFW just to be on the safe side.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

Sort of. Looks like that's who I'm trying to draw. The new workflow should work great for live models not just off of screens. I'll keep painting Jack until I feel like I nail his likeness like I did with Samuel L Jackson with the old workflow that works great for on screen but crap for live models in a pinch for time.

Already super recognizable, I'm really excited to see the progress this time!!

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 16 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Thank you, me too!

And so is my wife.

He's one of her all time favorites. We even have a signed photo of him in a speedo on our wall that is one of my wife's prized possessions.

That's pretty weird actually.

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

To like Jack Black means embracing the weird I think.

[–] al_Kaholic@lemmynsfw.com -3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Generic fake weird for money maybe. Kinda like how ice cube makes kids movies now. If lizard people are real J. Black is 100 percent one.

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What's so lizard people about Jack black? (I know basically nothing about him other than having seen him in some movies)

[–] al_Kaholic@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 3 months ago

Does he seem human or perhaps more like a lizard wearing a skin suit pretending to be human? It's the same vibe I get from that Facebook robot zuck. Hollows running a program to acquire wealth and power. Now the only question is why?

Everyone can have their opinion. Who am I to judge your love of a giant speedo wearing man?

[–] bitofarambler@crazypeople.online 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Haha! that sounds like one of my favorite photos too and I haven't even seen it.

I'm very excited to see this developing series.

Great choice; his face is so energetic. Very intense, as is Jackson, but mischievous rather than dramatic.

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Absolutely! He's a wonderful personality. I miss Jablonsky Games, that was some of his best work before he actually started streaming playing video games.

Putting off a samurai vibe. Jack would love that

Now I want Jack black to play hagrid as that's exactly what I see here. Pretty sure it's the beard. Great work to be clear very recognizable capting the whimsy of hack black

please paint kyle gas, jack has not treated him fairly, and they should get back together

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They should get back together for sure. And I'll give it a go.
