 Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2007 11:26 am Post subject: The "300" Thread - 301 - WE DID IT!!!! |
 |
|
|
So I drew this 300 thing this morning. I was itching to draw a 300 piece since I have
seen the trailer so with the movie coming out this week-end I thought it was about time 
Then I had this wacky idea: since I have seen lots of 300 art lately, why don't we have
a 300 thread/jam? Cool idea, uh? The wacky part is : let's see if we can make it to
300 illustrations! A 300 thread with 300 drawings: now that would be really cool: it's like
300 square 
Mods, feel free to stick this one for awhile if you wish (it has been awhile I haven't
started a jam ).
Here's mine, freshly done, for starting the jam. I will probably add more pieces while we
go along 
Cheers,
Francesco

that's awesome. I'm sure there'll be more contributions after people watch the movie and get hype, at least that's prolly when I'll try to do one myself. =P

Awesome, Francesco. Unfortunately, the movie doesn't open on this side of the pond until the end of the month 
I'm stickying this thread anyway, and I'll be contributing more than one piece for sure.

Hi, I'm new to posting, but old to reading. I've been a lurker of this forum for quite a long time.
A month or so ago, a site called "Overflowingbra.com" (which is a breast enlargement fetish site) commissioned me to draw a 300 pic for their cover page. The pay was good so I took the job. Aside from her breasts being extremely large (for obvious reasons mentioned before) what do you guys think? Below is that commission:

Kreed - Very dramatic action scene; Scat!! - The red overall tone really gives the impression of blood soaked rage; TheRonin - I've always liked the Spartan helmet design and this shows it off beautifully, Francesco; glych - The oversized breasts are a tad distracting and impractical for fighting, but other than that is a very nice piece. Have you considered perhaps reworking the proportions for general consumption?
My first contribution. The traitor Ephialetes:

Hurray, 3 more in Do you guys think we can make it 300 drawings in two months?
C'mon, I know we can do it If you want to be part of the 300 what are you waiting
for? 
glych: err... yeah, they are kinda huge and a bit distracting, but overall it's a really nice
piece (besides the huge boobs, I see a tiny tangent between left foot and right knee). I
second Euan's invitation to rework that area so you can put in the portfolio and show it
to all ages and welcome aboard!
em...: now that is just "precious"! Love it, so full of character and beautifully
painted I like that we are kinda keeping all the pieces in the same palette (not that it
has to be a rule for the next ones ) Thanks for the kind comment on my second one
lananan: c'mon, man, don't sell yourself too short: that's as simple as effective Cool
pose and nice use of the limited palette above mentioned
I am almost tempted to go back and color my latest entry
Bring'em on, guys 293 to go...
Cheers,
Francesco
