	Drawing a Little - Apolyton version Put an end to popups!

Hello there, Apolyton guys.

I've registered here a long time ago, but never really became a user of the site, and in fact I have been posting only the CFC since I decided to join the CIV international communities.

Anyway, it's been a while that I'm thinking of expanding my attention here to apolyton, somewhere I have been told me to be a substantially different experience from that of the CFC.

In an effort of doing so, I decided to begin by reproducing one of the most fun threads I had participated there - the "drawing a little" thread of the OT forum. Also, it's now in the middle of the second edition, and it prety much exausted the drawing talent over there - very few new people posting - so I'd like to check the skills of the guys in here.

The first one I'll post here is the same I posted there, as it has a CIV theme, what should appeal to people in here too.





Anyway, guys, show us all your talents.

I hope this is, for me, the begining of a long stay in this fine community.

Regards .

While at that, I'll add a little more to encourage other posters (and as I already have dozens uploaded anyway):

Another CIV-related, this one done in the windows paint:




And a few comic books art:

WOW...

No one can draw?

I got such a great response for this thread in CFC, so many people who did draw - one guy even professionally - and, being poly bigger than CFC, I really imagined that lots of Artists would show up and post.

Guys, anything you guys can make visually is fair game, I mean, 3d art is fine as well.

Nah, the only one done in paint is that infantry/infantry fight. The others were drawn by hand and scanned.

I do have another one drawn in the paint, but I don't know if I have already uploaded it. I'll try to find and post in here...

Hehehehe. I still have enough drawings to keep this thread in the 1th page for a while, but if no one else posts here, this wil become one really egocentric thread...

anyway, let's push it up to the viewers:

Well, it's supposed to be a Celt. Not very well researched though. A product of a math class and some polishing when I found it half a year later

Ugh. Now you got me all motivated to put that dang floppy drive in so I can scan stuff on the old pc and put them here. BTW, very nice stuff Fred although some of your interpretation is slightly... Weird... But I can't elaborate more than that due to lack of understanding. Very nice technique tho

Ah, those drawings are a little old...

I'm saving the best stuff for later.

The soldier paint one looks like the animators of the Simpsons finally decided to destroy Springfield. It just has a simpsony feel to it, probably because of the yellow skin. Nice stuff.

I've done a few paintings, but I'm gonna say it's the lack of a scanner that stops me from posting them...

I call that defection.
You could at least have drawn new pictures.

So if he registered a long time ago, then this account is a dl then?

We have numerous artists, it's just that they draw civ units instead of pictures like yours.

	Suffering from ads?

Hello Fred. Nice pics.

Regrettably I have no drawing skill, as I picked up a soldering gun by the wrong end aged 3. As a result I can't hold anything steady in my right hand, so my drawing is truly terrible.

However, my soldering skills are pretty damn hot.
