Digging through my stuff, I found a bunch of my drawings/doodles from high school when I should have been paying attention in class. I can't imagine what was going through my head for some of them, aside from the obvious teen angst.

For Powerslave:

I drew this one after a friend of mine started working at a local coffee shop:

If you have any bad art, please post it in here.

I dunno that stuff is pretty good man. You ever consider life drawing?

Bebpo · « **Reply #2 on:** July 15, 2009, 08:22:41 PM »

Yeah, that looks pretty good to me

Beezy · « **Reply #3 on:** July 15, 2009, 08:24:56 PM »

I really like the second pic.

Your art isn't so bad. Most of it looks like something that you find in a children's book.

muckhole · « **Reply #4 on:** July 15, 2009, 08:30:17 PM »

Oh yeah, when I can. I don't find the time for it as often as I used to.

Thanks for the compliments, guys. You're making my head swell.

Post some doodles!

Looks good and infinitely better than anything I could create

Nice! I wish could draw like that.

Pretty amazing stuff Muckhole.

I think you did a great job on a lot of them actually.

This is the nicest thread backfire ever.

Second pic is great, and a lot of this is really cool.

Hitler Stole My Potato · « **Reply #13 on:** July 15, 2009, 09:57:01 PM »

Yeah, that's pretty good muckhole. You can tell you at least had some taste in high school. I look back at some of this superhero/homosexual muscle man fetish of mine that I had going on in school and I'm kind of surprised I'm not gay.

So opening up the shame vaults even further....

I remember this was my physics teacher. Can't recall his name for the life of me or why I even bothered drawing him.

All right, fuck this. Embarassing high school art day is over.

muckhole · « **Reply #14 on:** July 15, 2009, 09:59:17 PM »

Damn, those are so cool. I wish I could shade like that.

*gay pics of half naked muscle dudes*

1. You like dudes.

2. Awesome dwgs.

3. I love the skull one near the end.

4. Draw me some 40k stuff.

Muckhole,

also awesome dwgs., 1st pic cracks me up

chronovore · « **Reply #16 on:** July 15, 2009, 11:09:13 PM »

Hah. I thought this was going to be some throwback thread, talking about Doom 3's art style. I tried to find the one where Gabe claims that iD's art direction looks satanic, but only if Satan is 13-years-old, drawing on his Pee-Chee Folder, and pissed off at his mom.

I liked this one, though:

Anyway, enough derailing: it's brave for you guys to put your art up online. I salute you.

Man, if I was still 15 I would've been all over that. I just don't draw/paint stuff like that anymore.

Notice how I thought it was important to have my sweaty nipples t-shirt displayed front and center when I drew myself totally half assed. That's how fucking old this shit is. I was listening to Sweaty freakin' Nipples.

Good lord.

lol you know this is actually kind of theraputic.

omg I laughed my ass off

I'd love to be at a level anywhere close to either of you. I started to teach myself to sketch last week. This is me repeatedly trying to duplicate a profile of Calvin from memory:

gotta start somewhere

This one needs a dude sneaking up behind the guy to steal his wallet.

Real talk:
I once had a teach take my notebook away from me because I was doodling instead of taking notes.
After she put it away and began to speak, I asked her how she expects me to take notes when she has my notebook.
She gave it back to right after that.

I was kind of embarrassed for her, to be so thoroughly owned by a doodling teenage. Whoa, that was like 10 years ago (don't have any of that left, and besides it was just stuff in the margins)

More random scriblings from Gay High.

Looks like I drew this gem on the back of a paper I wrote on My Antonia. I can't even remember if I actually turned it in with it on there or I just drew on it after I got it back. I really couldn't have been a bigger nerd if I tried.

*sigh* no idea. Just crap on the back of a handout.

Kip Winger is going to land that spaceship.

God, Muckhole is getting sexier by the second.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #25 on:** July 16, 2009, 07:55:25 AM »

cool. Totally a surprise that HSMP's work is much gayer than Muck's though, smh. I guess those Saints Row 2 cheeseburgers were a dead giveaway

The way you describe stuff kills me.

And HSMP, please tell me you didn't stop drawing. Not only is are they good, but the shading(?) is pretty impressive. I can only imagine what you can do now if you haven't stopped (especially since you were calling them embarrassing in the links thread $:-\$ )

After high school I went off to Cornish to study fine art and my style and taste changed dramatically. The art is a lot less homo now (ie it's only moderately gay). I still paint and draw to this day but it's limited since I'm working in the lab so often. I don't know why I'm so ashamed of this stuff since I was only around 16 or so and most of this was littered in random notebooks and folders but it really does bug the shit out of me when looking at it now. From subject matter to my apparant disregard to any sort of actual anatomy...smh.... but I guess its to be expected from a high school kid growing up when I did.

If I can find it, I'll dig up the comic book I put out in high school. It's really just a lot of The Dark Knight mixed with a ton of drug references, but I figured no one out there would catch on....lol. I also gotta try to find the t-shirt I made for the senior keg. There's so much fucking wrong going on in that picture that its amazing that one piece of clothing can contain it all.

all my random doodles and drawings from back when i was around the same age are SO MUCH WORSE than anything in this thread. SO MUCH WORSE!

Post some! Though, really, I find that hard to believe. Anything you've laid a hand to ususally winds up awesome.

I hope more people dig up stuff to post in here.

The inkwork on the skull is stellar. I also like the value play you've got in the other piece. Also, with the muscle-guy fetish, I'm also surprised you're not gay.

Muckhole these are all great man. You drew very artistic. I like all of em.
