Preserved Topic: Interesting Resource for Drawing/Painting

A friend of mine who's into Japanese Animé was telling me about this site and I went over to check it out. The place, called Oekaki Central is a collaberative forum for drawing Japanese Animé characters, scenes, etc..

Now drawing animé is not my forté and not something I'd generally choose to do. But I've always harbored a desire to improve my drawing skills. This site seems to offer a ton of examples, advice, comments, etc.. that can help towards that end. As well, there is a forum there where they hold their own version of Pong. Very interesting to see and well worth 500-800kb download for the animations. You can actually see the brush strokes taking place, watching as the picture develops towards the finished product. Here is a direct links to a one of the animations: The Stormbringer

The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

Wow....

I was watching the animation for "Stormbringer" and .... damn... that's some good shit...

I'm really impressed by not only the quality and the structure that went into creating the picture but also how it was produced for people to see. That form of Java is new to me and damn dude I'm really shocked that shit like that is doable for the web. Really nice site. Thanks for the link. Bookmark material.

Some awesome work there, and it offers a unique look into the working process.

Great stuff.

I saw one of these before of an oriental woman in a billowy silk blouse that was nearly photographic when it was done. The link broke a few days later.
