OMG's Patrick Pecoraro to present Contrast, a custom pinhole camera inspired exhibition
From Patrick's website:
"In order to assemble this series, I faced a specific problem: most pinhole cameras have only one shot. You expose film or paper and have to go back and develop it in the lab before loading the next shot. When there is more than one opportunity for a great photograph, the only option is to carry more than one camera. I came up with a solution. I designed and built a pinhole camera that uses regular 35mm film, but in a larger format. Three rolls are combined, equally spaced, giving a triptych like image. The resulting triptych blends together by persistance of vision. No longer limited to the short distances from the photo lab; I can take this camera hiking and get four to six exposures per set of film. Exposures only limited by the number of canisters on hand and the available light.
This new camera enhances the subject matter. For the last few years I captured images of nature reclaiming the fruits of man, photographing anything from abandoned buildings on the verge of collapse to old tires dumped in a field. Fascinated by the rusting, disintegrating, forgotten objects reclaimed by nature. I believe that capturing these scenes this way helps one understand that, over time, all man-made things will disappear, nature reclaims all."

Projects Abound!
Despite unseasonably nice weather, the members of OMG continue to work on their projects at the Makery or in their garages at breakneck speed. January is traditionally the perfect month for shunning the outdoors and basking in the glow of your computer monitor or, perhaps, the piercing UV glow of an arc welder.
Here's a quick rundown of what's in the works among the members of OMG:
Alex has made a LED matrix, for some arcane artsy purpose.
The Makery now has new modular workbenches for your hacking pleasure.
The aluminum forge is online, and continues to be improved. Excerpt from Dave's explanation,
"…welded together a frame for the tippy-forge last night. I still need to build the stationary part of the frame and put on a handle. What is pictured here is the moving part of the frame that lifts the forge to pour the metal.
After the welding was done we decided it was time to test the new concrete and the lid that Brandon installed recently. We had a couple of minor issues with the burner. There is some leakage of fuel around the input tube that we temporarily sealed with some duct tape. That lasted just long enough to get the aluminum to melt. The propane bottle was nearly empty and started to freeze up on us at the end, the gas pressure looked to be dropping off. We didn't have time to get the aluminum up to proper pouring temperature, but it was hot enough to at least dump it out of the crucible. The clearance between the inside of the forge (a large soup can) and the crucible (some iron pipe) is a bit narrow, somewhere around 1cm, but the flame swirls around the body very nicely, and when the lid is on the hot exhaust flows over the pouring spout, which is welded to the crucible, which should help keep it hot so that the metal stays warmer when pouring."
See something here that interests you? These projects and more are in the works at OMG. If you have a project you'd like featured on the site, send a photo and description to firstname.lastname@example.com. Of course, if you'd like to get involved in a project, or need help with something you're working on, check out the forum.
Until next time…
Makery Glowstick Fashion
Myself and Brandon Essler put together a glowstick holster and a glowstick bracer at yesterday's meeting, continuing the trend of glowy maker high fashion.
The plan is to eventually wire these pieces up with some sort of LED infusion.
You'll be able to view these in action at this year's "New Year Revolution" event.
Maker High Fashion…the EL Coat
Actually, I'll leave the judgment as to whether this is fashionable to the reader. Taking a cue from the ready availability of electroluminescent tape/wire to the Maker community, and yes, the recent Tron movie (which re imagined the cult classic costuming in a decidedly more modern twist), it has become too tempting to ignore the possibilities and shaking up the norm.
And so, using white EL tape from Adafruit, two AAA battery packs, a coat I rather like from H&M, and a bit of sewing, viola! My Jeff Bridges impression is complete, man.
So, project aside, this has got me thinking about the state of change in fashion in the modern age. Making a coat like this is one thing…how you use it quite another. I think the Steampunk community must also face this problem. When you think a certain fringe fashion is cool, do you wear it only among those who also share your (weird) tastes, or do you let that freak flag fly, hoping to inspire? Let the social experiment begin!
What is this "Variac" Thing?
A Variac (also known as an Autotransformer) is a variable transformer, which allows the user a convenient way to control the power to an AC appliance. In our context, it's typically used to adjust the output of a heating device. The variac currently at the Makery is a 20-amp model manufactured by PowerStat. We've configured it to scale voltage only in the down direction, so that the output range is 0-110vac (or whatever line voltage happens to be). The transformer is outfitted with standard AC outlet fittings, and is mounted to a board for easy transport. It should be noted that this transformer is NOT isolated, so the output could still be hazardous, regardless of how low the voltage happens to be set. As with most other equipment, the variac is stored in the TOOLS cabinet.
TacitTheremin: A spatial awareness tool for the blind.
What's this strange thing? This is the TacitTheremin, a device which helps blind people understand their surroundings using ultrasonic sound ranging. Designed to work in tandem with a cane, this device allows users to get a greater sense of what's around them at ranges that exceed a cane and in any direction in which its pointed.
Inspired by the Tacit, an invention made by Grathio Labs, the TacitTheremin is a modification of that design concocted right here at the Omaha Maker Group. It mounts to the wrist, receives distance measurements from an ultrasonic sensor, and outputs sound to the user through a speaker (low tones for far distances, high tones for short distances). It ranges from 16 feet down to 3cm, 5 times per second.
See the original Tacit here. The TacitTheremin is released under a Creative Commons BY-NC-SA License.
This whole project started as an attempt to replicate a Tacit (because the idea is just so darn cool), and in the end it turned out to look quite different, with different coding as well. You can read about the epic journey in detail, and make your own for a friend (on an individual project basis).
But enough technical stuff. See it in action!
Currently, this prototype is being field tested by a local Omahan named Mike, who happens to be blind. Stay tuned for a followup video.
You can reach me with any comments, questions, or concerns here. Just be sure and put "TacitTheremin" in the subject. Alternatively, feel free to comment below!
The 3d Printers at Work
Its amazing what you can print these days. We tested out the Mendel Prusa last evening by printing this cool little light bulb sculpture.
If you could make any design in your head come to life, what would it be?
Much of what we can do these days with 3D printing is due to the hard work of Brandon. Be sure and check out the new RepRap piece he's making to ensure 3D printing just gets better and better: Vertical X-Axis
Be sure to check out our new "Makery Mendel" channel on Ustream, located in the links to the right. Whenever the Makery is printing, you can see it happening.
One Month to Make: Nerf Gun Distance and Style Mod Competition
Are you a Maker?
The Omaha Maker Group is hosting a Nerf* dart gun competition for distance and visual improvement modification.
When: 7pm, November 9th
Where: The Makery
Competitors will modify a Nerf 'N-Strike Nite Finder EX-3' to maximize it's distance and/or aesthetic value. Steampunks, artists, we look to you for inspiration.
The entrance fee for the competition is $10, but anyone can come and watch for free.
The gun may be modified in any way, provided that it remains at least somewhat identifiable as an N-Strike, and does not use pre-compressed air (such as CO2 cartridges) or chemical power. Electric power is permitted, provided the voltages are within reason (meaning the gun won't cause a power outage).
Ammo will be standard-unmodified Nerf darts. For the contest each contestant will provide with their entry a minimum of three such darts in good condition (a new N-Strike comes with 3 darts), which will be pooled and used for the competition.
The modified weapon in 'primed to fire' condition must fit within a 3x7x11 inch container.
Performance for the distance competition will be measured by a maximum range test. The gun may be held by the contestant or mounted in a vice, provided the muzzle does not extend beyond the firing line. Distance will be measured from the firing line.
The cosmetic "Fine Weapon" competition will be judged by majority vote of your fellow participants. The winner will be judged to have a very fine weapon indeed. The winner will also gain a 10% distance bonus in that competition.
The winner of the distance competition gets bragging rights and a 1 month free membership to the Omaha Maker Group.
*'Nerf' is descriptive of the brand of equipment to be used, and does not imply any other association with the brand.
3D Printing Contest
Our resident 3D printing guru Brandon is in a contest to design a new Vertical X axis.

MAC # 239 Eye Shader Brush
468 reviews
89% would repurchase
Package Quality: 4.2
Price: $$$
Package Quality: 4.2
Price: $$$
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Warm
Hair: Brunette, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Brown
This is amazing for perfect and precise shadow application. I have had mine for about 3 years now and it looks new. Great quality and worth the price.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Blue
The 239 is my HG for applying e/shadow.
And as others have mentioned, it is even more perfect for darker shadows as the application is smooth and even.
I certainly make a clear distinction between an application brush (such as the 239) and a blending brush (like the 217).
The fact that the 239 "sucks ups" the darker pigment on its white bristles and appears soiled after one use does distress me a little, however if you're happy to blend a bit more and use both sides of the brush you can get away with washing your 239 just once every couple of weeks.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Dry, Tan, Warm
Hair: Black, Wavy, Other
Eyes: Brown
This is a great makeup brush, one that you should invest in. It is made from real goat hair and has dense fibres so application is easy for packing on the lid. I do agree to patt on lids rather than sweeping movements for more colour payoff but hate having to wash it all the time.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Combination, Medium, Warm
Hair: Brown, Straight, Other
Eyes: Brown
This brush must be in everyone's arsenal. It is soft and is excellent at applying colour on the lid. I don't get nearly as much fallout with certain eyeshadows using this brush. Yes, the bristles are white but I wipe off the colour with tissue after each use and wash it often. It's priceless.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Dry, Medium, Warm
Hair: Blond, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Blue
I love this brush!!!! picks up color great, perfect size and shape for me. Somehow I just lost mine so I will have to buy a new one soon!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Tan, Cool
Hair: Black, Curly, Other
Eyes: Brown
The MAC 239 eye shader brush is an essential to anyone's MAC collection and make up collection in general. The brush is soft with fine fibers, yet dense to collect color. A great eye shadow brush to apply eyeshadows or even cream products with. MAC brushes are expensive, but are high quality and a good investment. The only draw back someone might have is that the bristles are white as oppose to black, so when using darker colors or intense colors and cleaning is not done immediately after wards, it could possibly stain your brushes. This is a must have brush, but also to have in multiples :]
Age: 30-35
Skin: Dry, Fair, Cool
Hair: Black, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Brown
I read that another reviewer prefers the 217 to this brush. In my mind they are 2 completely different brushes. The 217 will never pack on and deposit color like the 239. Try it on the back of your hand. Dip the 217 in to a dark shadow and lay down a swipe on the back of your hand--see how dark you can make it. Then do the same with the 239. The 239 will lay down much more color and in less strokes.
There are other good packing brushes out there but none as good as the 239 in my opinion. I have the pack brushes from Sonia Kashuk. The bristles are longer so I have less control. The shorter bristles on the 239 make all the difference.
The 239 is make from goat hair, thus the white appearance. This is the same material used to make the 217.
The 239 is a makeup lovers must have brush
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Oily, Medium, Cool
Hair: Brown, Straight, Coarse
Eyes: Brown
I can see why people like this so much but it doesn't work for small eyes. It's dense and it picks up color very well. Not much to say about this brush because it's just a normal shading brush. Cheaper and smaller brushes worked better for me.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Acne-prone, Olive, Warm
Hair: Black, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Brown
The MAC 239 is such a great brush for packing on a lid or lid-to-browbone colour. Picks up the shadow wonderfully, and it's a really great size to go in on the lid. When using this for a lid colour, always remember to PAT the colour onto the lid. Swiping it back and forth still gives you colour, but not to the extent that patting will. Also, this brush can be used in the crease if you don't want a diffused look. Although I rarely use it in the crease. Overall, great brush, and definitely one of the must-have eye brushes from MAC!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Normal, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Wavy, Medium
Eyes: Green
I only purchased this recently - my first "high end" (ish) eye brush. Can't believe I waited so long! It is very very soft, but firm enough that its not flimsy. Does take on a lot of product, and most of this is distributed fully and evenly onto the lid.
Very expensive in my opinion. Almost $50 australian dollars (should be a lot less with our dollar becoming stronger, but MAC doesn't seem to adjust prices), but because I couldn't find a decent cheaper option, I decided to get this. Probably people in the US and UK have a much larger range of more affordable brushes to choose from.
But like I said, it is a very good brush.

Batgirl Yvonne Craig. Batgirl Yvonne Craig dead at 78: Also featured in 'Star Trek' episode, Elvis Presley movies Yvonne Craig, best known as Batgirl in the 1960s television series Batman, died of complications from breast cancer on Monday, Aug. 17, '15, at her home in Pacific Palisades, in the Los Angeles Westside. Craig (born May 16, 1937, in Taylorville, Illinois), who had been undergoing chemotherapy for two years, was 78. Beginning (and ending) in the final season of Batman (1967-1968), Yvonne Craig played both Commissioner Gordon's librarian daughter Barbara Gordon and her alter ego, the spunky Batgirl – armed with a laser-beaming electric make-up kit "which will destroy anything." Unlike semi-villainess Catwoman (Julie Newmar), Batgirl was wholly on the side of Righteousness, infusing new blood into the series' increasingly anemic Dynamic Duo: Batman aka Bruce Wayne (Adam West) and Boy Wonder Robin aka Bruce Wayne's beloved pal Dick Grayson (Burt Ward).

Julie Newmar turns 82 today. Newmar, our personal favorite Catwoman, played the role of the sultry villainess on the first two seasons of the 1966 Batman television series. The role in the 66 film was filled in by Lee Meriwether (Newmar was already booked for other work at the time) and Eartha Kitt took over the duties in the final third season of the show.

James Garcia reviews Mark Edlitz' new book, How To Be A Superhero…
Each day, the internet is flooded with news stories about each and every piece of development surrounding an upcoming comic book adaptation or superhero film. We here at Flickering Myth spend our days dissecting and discussing those various topics with as much fervor and excitement as any fan out there. Yet, while there are dozens of stories or quotes circling the web at any given time, they usually only pertain to one part of a larger story; actors give brief updates about their upcoming roles, writers and directors talk about various influences, etc.
Enter Mark Edlitz, whose impressive tome How To Be A Superhero puts all of those news reports to shame by diving headfirst into the expansive superhero genre with long, in-depth interviews with dozens of the genre's veterans, like Adam West, Jack Nicholson, John Wesley Shipp, »

Before Tim Burton.s Batman, Heath Ledger.s Joker and the Dark Knight rose, there was the 1960.s version of the caped crusader. And boy, was it glorious. Not only was it delightfully over-the-top, but it was also a pure celebration of the childish joy that comic-books of the era embodied. So news that a Batman .66 animated film is in the works was met with fervent celebration, as should the revelation that Julie Newmar will be appearing. According to 13th Dimension.s sources, the animated film will feature the vocal talents of Newmar, however they refused to confirm whether she would once again be portraying Catwoman. But I.m pretty sure it goes without saying that she will be. Because if she doesn.t, then those involved will have a full-scale riot on their hands, the likes of which has only been seen when Arkham Ayslum.s walls have been »

According to 13th Dimension, Julie Newmar will provide the voice for Selina Kyle/Catwoman in the next year's animated take on the 1966 Batman TV series. Newmar made the most appearances as the character, though Lee Meriwether took over for the 1966 feature film and Eartha Kitt for the series' final season. Since then we've seen Michelle Pfeiffer, Halle Berry and Anne Hathaway rock the leather catsuit, but Newmar's interpretation is seen by many as the most puuuurrrrfect (sorry). Warner Bros. hasn't confirmed this yet, but if Newmar does return she'll join Adam West as Batman and Burt Ward as Robin. »

Over the weekend we learned that former dynamic duo Adam West and Burt Ward would be reuniting for an animated feature film based on the beloved 1960s Batman TV series in 2016, just in time for its 50th anniversary. Now, we're hearing that they won't be alone.
According to Dan Greenfield of 13th Dimension, Julie Newmar – famous for playing Catwoman in the 60s show – will be reuniting with West and Ward for the new animated movie. The news is far from official, of course, and should be taken with a grain of salt, but Greenfield promises that the info from his sources "close to the production" is "solid," despite a lack of comment from Warner Bros.
So, who else would you like to see from the show come back for 2016 the animated feature?

Burt Ward, Adam West, and Julie Newmar
Next year will mark the fiftieth anniversary of the debut of Batman, the 60s series starring Adam West as the titular superhero and his alter-ego Bruce Wayne, and Burt Ward as the Dick Grayson version of Robin. But even though the series ended in 1968, the duo's involvement with the iconic DC hero and the world he inhabits has not stopped there. Now news has emerged that both West and Ward will be lending their voices to one, possibly two new animated features in 2016.
Ward himself dropped the news at Mad Monster Con over the weekend, where the duo were part of a panel. No other details were revealed about the film, including what kind of tone it would take, but Ward specifically pointed out the fiftieth anniversary of the show in his announcement. The movie will mark Ward's first return to »

Simone Simon in 'La Bête Humaine' 1938: Jean Renoir's film noir (photo: Jean Gabin and Simone Simon in 'La Bête Humaine') (See previous post: "'Cat People' 1942 Actress Simone Simon Remembered.") In the late 1930s, with her Hollywood career stalled while facing competition at 20th Century-Fox from another French import, Annabella (later Tyrone Power's wife), Simone Simon returned to France. Once there, she reestablished herself as an actress to be reckoned with in Jean Renoir's La Bête Humaine. An updated version of Émile Zola's 1890 novel, La Bête Humaine is enveloped in a dark, brooding atmosphere not uncommon in pre-World War II French films. Known for their "poetic realism," examples from that era include Renoir's own The Lower Depths (1936), Julien Duvivier's La Belle Équipe (1936) and Pépé le Moko (1937), and particularly Marcel Carné's Port of Shadows (1938) and Daybreak (1939).[11] This thematic and »

What kind of Catwoman did Anne Hathaway turn out to be in Christopher Nolan's final Batman film, The Dark Knight Rises?
"I am Catwoman: hear me… make you question things, a bit"
Some confusing events can only be fully dealt with and understood with time. And so, three years later, it finally feels safe to look back at Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises, and some of the questions you may have found yourself pondering in the cinema at the time.
Before going in and finding your seat, the questions were along the lines of: can Anne Hathaway pull this off? Will her performance stop the recurring nightmares about Halle Berry's attempt? How will this film even work without the Joker? You got your answers on those – the nightmares will never stop – but here are some Qs we're still struggling with…

The 1990′s introduced the world to Quentin Tarantino, saw the creation of the Nc-17 rating, and began the slow call toward fully computer animated films. It began the slow (still slow) movement toward a more diverse industry, with the first African-American director earning an Oscar nomination (John Singleton for "Boyz in the Hood"). And the year after one of the greatest years in the history of film, 1995 came plodding along, trying to keep up. So, for the first definitive list of 2015, we are going to look back 20 years at a year that, at first glance, doesn't look so hot. It's ripe with flops, but it's also full of debuts, trailblazing beginnings, and better films than it gets credit for. But, the caveat still stands: this is not a "best of" list. In fact, there are a lot of bad movies on this list. But, they are movies that made a cultural impact, »

Newsflash: We still have awhile before the Oscars. It's like a month away. But we can prepare anyway by revisiting the greatest hits of our leading nominees in the acting categories. Put on your angriest Annette Bening face and join us for this trip into prestige pictures currently streaming on Netflix. "The Kids are All Right" (Julianne Moore) Julianne Moore didn't pick up a nomination, but costars Annette Bening and Mark Ruffalo did in this family drama (with funny moments) about a lesbian couple attempting to embrace the new-found presence of their kids' sperm donor. "The Kids are All Right" feels like a lost James L. Brooks gem set in 2010, and every performance has endearing and (intentionally) maddening moments. Julianne might play the most conflicted character at all, and she wears that indecision and personal guilt well. "My Week With Marilyn" (Eddie Redmayne) Is this a great movie? No. In fact, »

For today's comic book readers, there's an appetite for one flavor of Batman: brooding, angry, single-minded and largely one-dimensional. But for those of an earlier generation where the interpretation of Batman varied by editor and medium, there are other varieties to tickle the fancy and entertain the soul. After years of the unrelentingly grim animated fare, Cartoon Network and Warner Animation came up with a breath of fresh air in Batman: The Brave and the Bold. James Tucker and Michael Jelenic developed this series to mimic the days of Batman being a premier hero and collaborator, operating in a bright, colorful world filled with costumed heroes and crazy villains.
The show lasted three seasons and 65 wonderful episodes and late in 2014, Warner Archive finally released Batman: The Brave and the Bold: The Complete Second Season on Blu-ray. There are 26 gloriously goofy half-hour episodes here and they are »

In Low-Lying Bangladesh, The Sea Takes a Human Toll
Danish photographer and filmmaker Jonathan Bjerg Møller recently spent nine months in Bangladesh, chronicling the lives of people struggling to survive just a few feet above sea level. He traveled to the South Asian nation after hearing projections from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change about the millions of climate refugees that would be created this century by rising seas and more powerful storms.
Møller wanted to put a human face on this issue, and decided there was no better place than Bangladesh, where 15 million of its 160 million people live less than three feet above sea level.

Christina Ricci in Carolina Herrera at UNICEF Snowflake Ball
No One Can Handle How Good Christina Ricci Looks Right Now
Like us on Facebook
When Christina Ricci arrived at UNICEF's annual Snowflake Ball last night, she was wearing a dress that just worked on so many levels that we almost couldn't stand it.
The Carolina Herrera gown mixed a leopard-print trumpet skirt with a three-tiered bodice that combined gray, black, and brown fabrics. Putting all that different cloth together would be a challenge for any designer, but Herrera made it work — and, well, Ricci did, too. It was as if this gown was made just for her.
At least that's what we think. Tell us how you feel about the dress.

One day not so very long from now our children may think of the T. rex and the tiger as co-occupants of a single Lost World
Regions / Laos
I called Henry Kissinger a war criminal to his face. Here's why.
A proposed dam on the Mekong River would provide energy for the region, but at a significant environmental cost.
Knowledge about matters such as the U.S. bombing of Laos is a maladaptive trait in her line of work.
Forty years later, unexploded bombs from America's secret war in Laos continue to kill dozens each year.
U.S. cluster bombs continue to kill and maim impoverished Laotians, but the war criminals responsible have never been brought to book.
Vang Pao's passing reminds us how U.S. enables drug dealing as means to foreign-policy ends.
Since the end to the U.S. wars in Southeast Asia, many other wars have been waged, in other parts of the world, in new terrain, villages, and communities. Yet, the wars in Southeast Asia lingers.
Without political reform, Laos will continue to be mired in debt and poverty, argues Ronald Bruce St John.
After years of negotiations, stalling tactics, and domestic political debate, the U.S. Congress is considering ratification of bilateral trade agreements (BTAs) with the Socialist Republic of Vietnam and the Lao People's Democratic Republic (Lao PDR or Laos) this summer.

nice studies, im not sure whats going on in the first scene of the comic book, his arms look weird. Oh well, you have plenty of other studies with muscles that make up for it
Krato- Thanks! And I know what you mean about the arm, it was rushed and suffered for it.
Just finished up a speed painting.
A bit late on the update. Sketches for friends, study I'm going to redo and an old favourite cartoon character of mine.
Wow, so weird.. some of your stuff like in your last post (1st and 3rd pics) don't match at all with the other stuff you do like the guy doing Capoeira (or whatever he's doing, the guy with the white pants).
Anyway, some of your drawings have nice muscle flowing but some are a bit strange (like the wolf-thing and the guy in your comic).
I'll keep an eye around here!.
Mik2121- Yeah, I'll admit the comic pages are pretty bad. It's a rush job. Things tend to get wonky if I rush it or go without reference, but I'm working on it. I just feel pressed for time but that's no excuse.
Speaking of which, I was displeased with the output I did so I'm taking the time to work on a study slowly. Here's what I've got so far.
Anyone know where I can find some good refs of women that aren't just standing? Something more interesting.
Was watching some of Daarken's videos and decided to mimic how he was painting. I think it turned out well for a test.
2 Hours.
Something I'm working on. Crits are appreciated.
Some cool stuff here. I like that comic book strip on the first post and the reference stuff is good too.
I'd like to see how the post above this one turns out
The Sketchbook of Frittzell
"The Imagination, the inside of our heads, truly is the most vast frontier" - Terence Mckenna
"Nature is the great visible ancient of creativity"
Good mix of studies and creative work in here, that will go a long way.
Keep up the good work!
Sublimus- Thanks, I try to apply what I've learned to creative work.
sandeepbarot- Thanks!
Frittzell(Image)- Then look no further because it's done.
Crits are much appreciated.
Some heads.
Only one thing today, I got sucked into too many debates and whatnot. I tried drawing at least something from reference and I figured it would be extremely beneficial to post a screw up.
I do this all the time. I have huge difficulties drawing things symmetrically, always have, I'll show you how bad it is. Is there any exercise I can do to fix this? I think it'd be a huge break through if I could learn how to get over this. So far I don't have a clue how to overcome this.
Went further with it. I was flipping it back and forth trying to fix the skewered look but I still don't think it looks right. I 'cheated' with the warp tool to fix the length of her head. Crits?
great stuff! keep it up
regarding your symettry issue, looks like you just start painting away. try starting out with a rather defined preliminary sketch. that way you have some guidelines instead of getting carried away without noticing mistakes until it's too late. i do the same thing as you! lol
Nice work mate. In reference to what was said about symmetry. Center Lines are your friends. If you throw down a vertical center line and a horizontal center line you well almost never skew the face. However you still need learn other landmarks. Like the inside corner of the eyes roughly lining up with the outsides of the nostrils ETC. Learn those and you're golden. Also in reference to getting carried away. You might be working into detail too early which is what draws a lot of attention away on placement.
So get the overall shape and placement of important features and then work your way through. Also when you work from reference try to figure out you're own landmarks and see where things line up. You should spend more time looking at the reference than at whatever it is you're drawing or painting.
My Blog
My Sketchbook
It's a somewhat difficult piece to study. First off the left hand side is much more lifelike and smooth. On the right hand side the planes of the face come to the surface. You have to think of the face as simple geometric shapes to get this. Like has been said, layout a sketch using guidelines (cutting the face equally down the center, ears begin right above the upper eyelid and end right around the nostrils, iris is equal to the corners of the mouth)
You did cheat with the warp tool and it's a good thing you said that. Next time take a little more time and repaint it. Don't rely on other tools to magically fix it like that, especially for studies where you are trying to observe and learn. Right now the biggest flaw would be that someone took her face and pulled it towards the bottom right hand corner, skewing it. You've got the values down right though, I'd try one more time with a sketch first.
007-r0b3r7- Thanks! I tend to have the same problem with lines as I do directly painting when it comes to symmetry, but it helped.
ThabisoMhlaba- Sometimes I forget about the centre line, but it seemed to help. I know all about the different lengths of the face(except I need to look up on the width) but I wasn't paying much attention this time around.
Gamerhomie- Thanks, I tried it with paying attention to the face dimensions as well.
OK, so this looks much better. There's some flaws(obviously), but it's good step in the right direction. Took about 3h 30m.
You have some good studies, keep it up. I think one thing I would like to see more of in your work is the essence of what you are recreating. This is a hard thing to explain. When you do a portrait of someone and put down all the marks you see you are still missing the personality of that person. This needs to come through in the art which means you need to figure out how to tap into that feeling when creating. Everything has a personality and energy to it. You are really not just depicting colors and lines you are attempting to recreate what the energy is and is expressing. If you only see colors and lines then thats all it turns out to be and the viewer picks up on that. It really leaves the peice feeling uneasy and unfinished. This is really talking about going past technical ability. I know that studies are meant to improve technical abilities but this really is the secret ingredient. So practice this just as much as everything else. Go find some good portraits painted of people and see if you can see that the artist managed to capture the essence. Even a landscape or animal. Its there. Take Care!
keep up the hard work! soon i will add you to my sig if you stay committed
Sunny- Thanks, I completely get what you're saying. I'm still trying to figure that out.
Krato- Awesome, sounds good to me.
Some eye studies and a non-ref capoeira sketch.
Hey there, you have some really solid things going on here. The one thing I noticed about your bust though is that the jaw seems a little too wide, which is throwing it off as far as the symmetry. I know you were struggling with that a lot, but keep at it and soon it'll become easier. Keep at it!
keep working! it looks great ! i def see improvement! I will be checkin back to your thread often!
My Blog: http://flyingmilkpig.blogspot.com
try adding more variation in colors too, it seems you just have one color in your paintings.
join the thunderdome
The Hyperactive SSG
fellow artists:
majortom- Thanks! I didn't notice the jaw was too wide until after, I guess I keep forgetting about the width of the overall head.
Angela- Awesome, thanks!
Krato- Thanks for the tip.
jatherip- I'll keep it in mind. I've heard about blues and purples for dark and yellows for light, what about those?
darknight- Good idea, I need to track some down.
OK, so I missed a day. I did draw, but nothing was coming out right and I decided not to post them, but I did finally get what everyone was saying about paying attention about the planes because I realized while I've been studying with planes for 2 years now, I haven't been applying them properly and keeping them in mind when it comes to the face. Who knows, maybe other places too.
I'm trying to learn drawing with the underhand grip, it's hard, I don't have a proper desk to do graphite on. I feel like I went back 2 years ago in skill when I did it, I probably need more practise or maybe I was learning in the wrong way. Still frustrating.
More on that study, the cloth is hard to draw. Took a break and watched Dave Rapoza's livestream and got inspired to draw an Orc in his style. Or at least similar. I think I'm too tired to finish it in one sitting.

Select Local Merchants
Sun and Ski SportsRead MoreSince its founding in 1980, Sun & Ski Sports has remained true to its philosophy: "do a few things, but do them better than anybody else." The shop stocks equipment in five categories of extreme and outdoor activities, including camping, skating, running, bicycling, and water and snow sports. It specializes in these to ensure its merchandise maintains a high standard of quality, and its employees are knowledgeable participants in the sports their department represents. Bikers can drop off their steeds for tune-ups from certified mechanics who put all brands through the rigors of a 12-point inspection, checking chains and adjusting wobbly pedals and malfunctioning spoke-card motors. While waiting, curious eyes might linger on a North Face two-person tent, a Blackburn Airtower bicycle pump, or a vast selection of shoes from brands such as New Balance and Asics. Men and women can traipse nearly barefoot in the park with Vibram FiveFingers, which offer minimal structural encumbrances for a more natural stride, or cast their feet aside for the new-wheeled prowess that comes with a Fuji SL-1 LE Ultegra performance road bike.900 S.

Heartwarming: Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue
- From "Time for Lightspeed", seeing several ordinary but service oriented people rising to help as soon as they realize people need help. And the fact that this was the first ranger series with no Secret Identity. Seeing these new heroes rising up and being recognized as true heroes in and out of uniform is a new but sweet territory that Power Rangers moved into with this season.
- The part in "Ocean Blue" when Chad and Marina press their hands against the glass a la the hand touch scene in Tarzan.
- The end of "The Chosen Path," where Chad's old sensei finally accepts Chad's decision to become a Power Ranger and gets a tour of the Aquabase.
- Seeing Dana and Captain Mitchell celebrating Ryan's birthday in "From Deep in the Shadows" after so many years, in spite of him being supposedly dead.

I'm a big fan of Metro. It's the design language you see in Windows Phone and I recently linked to a presentation at BUILD where Sam Moreau talked about the principles and personality of Metro style in Windows 8.
In Sam's talk, he references the importance of typography in Metro – if you have any interest in this topic, I think you'll also enjoy this short film featuring the godfather of modern type, Erik Spiekermann. Here he talks with Elliot Jay Stocks about how typography is used in the digital domain and what digital designers can learn from traditional print techniques.

Lexington has certainly rolled out the red carpet for the thousands of spectators and athletes here in town for the World Equestrian Games.
This year there are a lot of firsts for the games?
Good Question: What sets this year's World Equestrian Games apart from years past?
The games are underway, athletes and horses are competing for the title of the best in the world and they are also a part of a history making event.
"These games to be held in America hold several firsts for any World Equestrian Games, said Amy Walker with WEG Public Relations.
First and foremost the venue at the Kentucky Horse Park is unlike any other the games have ever seen.
"The grounds of the Kentucky Horse Park provide an opportunity that no other games has had, we can put all spectators in one place at one time," said Walker.
Of the Horse Park's 1200 acres, some 850 are being used for the games, that's a far cry from the last competition.
"The entire venue of the 2006 games in Germany fit in our front parking lot which is about 40 acres."
We also wondered if other cities rolled out the entertainment wagon for visitors?
Amy Walker says in 2006 Aachen had a continuous party of sorts, but admits Spotlight Lexington probably set the bar high for the next city in line.
While impressing visitors and pulling off an exciting world competition is the goal for organizers, they hope to leave a WEG legacy for Kentuckians when its all said and done.
"So we hope part of the legacy of this event is introducing new audiences all over the world both to Kentucky, but then introducing Kentuckians to equestrian sport."
This is also the first games to hold world championships for para equestrian athletes with disabilities and the first games to have a title sponsor.

Film: Mass Culture and Reeducation
"THE PRISONER of WAR activities most naturally susceptible to the influence of the program are those recreational diversions that move more or less entertainingly in the realms of social ideas, " the Provost Marshal General (PMG), Archer L. Lerch, wrote in his initial proposal for what he called the "re-orientation" of German POWs. 1 The "most effective media" for indoctrination "in probable order of popularity among prisoners are a) motion picture programs; b) recreational readings; c) radio programs; and d) theatrical performances." Films, Lerch noted, represented a particularly sensitive issue because of the prisoners' insatiable appetite for this medium. He apparently feared that counterproductive thoughts might infiltrate the prisoners' minds and impede reeducation through "casual and haphazard" handling of the movie diet in the camps. Motion pictures demanded, therefore, special attention.
These recommendations did not fare well once plans for reeducation began to materialize. Upon the establishment of the Special Projects Division (SPD), movies received marginal attention only. The architects of reeducation either ignored the use of motion pictures or damned the medium with faint praise.
Several factors had combined to produce this unfavorable attitude toward movies. Lt. Colonel Edward Davison, Lerch's choice for director of the SPD, alluded to the primary reason by describing his program as "intellectual diversion" instead of the vague, open-ended "reorientation" or the more insidious sounding "indoctrination" employed in other descriptions. Here Davison hinted at a deep mistrust of popular culture and, conversely, a commitment to education by rational persuasion that he shared with most of the senior SPD officers. Reeducation planners would admit in passing that from "time to time good non-political Hollywood productions" could provide some positive input. However, they envisioned the fundamental purpose of the film branch as a repository of government filmstrips on science and education, all of "which could furnish excellent indoctrination material." 2 Having committed themselves to a program of scholarly enlightenment, these officials approached the medium of film as an auxiliary tool for intellectual persuasion and ignored its popularity among the prisoners.
At least as important as these staff presumptions on the efficacy of film was the attitude of the auxiliary German prisoner staff employed in the Idea Factory. As intellectuals removed from the typical concerns of the

Publix Vice President of Distribution to Retire; New Vice President Announced
LAKELAND, Fla., March 11, 2014—After 40 years of dedicated service, Publix Super Markets' Vice President of Distribution Richard Schuler announced his decision to retire, effective May 2.
Schuler began his Publix career in 1973 as an unloader in the company's Miami distribution center. In 1979, he was promoted to grocery supervisor, fresh pack supervisor in 1982 and produce department head in 1987. He moved to the Deerfield distribution center as dispatch superintendent in 1991 and transferred back to Miami in 1995 as Miami distribution manager. Schuler was promoted to his current position in 2000.
Publix CEO Ed Crenshaw said, "Richard has made significant contributions to Publix, most notable of which is developing a strong and viable distribution support function for our stores. Throughout his career, he has been dedicated to advocating for his customers and committed to the training and development of his associates. We wish him the very best as he begins the next chapter of his life."
With this retirement, Casey Suarez has been named Vice President of Distribution, effective May 3.
Suarez began his Publix career in 1978 as a part-time produce clerk at store 112 in South Miami. After working in different capacities at several stores in Broward and Miami-Dade Counties, he was promoted to store manager in 1988 and Miami Division district manager in 1994. In 2011, Suarez relocated to Lakeland to assume the position of director of warehousing.
"As a 36-year Publix veteran, Casey's background in retail operations and in warehousing gives him the unique ability to have insights into both functions of our business," said Sr. Vice President of Distribution and Manufacturing Mike Smith. "He has strong leadership abilities, which include engaging his associates, creating an inclusive workforce and promoting a strong sense of our Publix culture. We're confident Casey and his team will continue to build a strong supply chain."
Suarez and his wife Marilyn, Lakeland residents, have four children and four grandchildren. They are passionate about giving back to their community and are actively involved with the March of Dimes and United Way.

I do have probably my first disappointment about this set though. One of the things I was most looking forward to seeing was the Cosmic String from The Loss. Truthfully, it looked a lot more bland than what I would have liked. I understand maybe it was how it was filmed and Modern Video is better than HTV, but I couldn't help but think that if CBS Digital did that effect, we would have seen something along the lines of the Crystaline Entity from season 1. Kind of wish they had remastered that effect better.
Since, as you say, the cosmic string effect in this episode is comprised of filmed elements (shooting liquid nitrogen against black velvet, I believe -- that trick was used a lot for space anomalies), I'm not sure it would have ended up looking much different in CBS-D hands, since their mantra is that if it exists on film, they use it. The crystalline entity had to be recreated, of course, because there was no high-quality source... the original CGI only existed on standard definition analog tape and simply didn't hold up in resolution or even aesthetically. It sort of demanded to be re-done.

As a gay man, if the PTB even contemplated going in that direction I'd rather they left the character out rather than have a mincing queen being a bitch on the bridge.
Unless this character is in a relationship from the start do you not risk having 'the gay episode'? Where we discover, however well done, that the character is gay.

(1) Courts began with the civil law-based doctrine of respondeat superior (2) and gradually injected aspects of the criminal law, such as hearings and sentencing, into the abstract nature of the corporation. (3) Although criminal prosecution of corporations is guided by recognized principles and occurs more frequently today, many prosecutors still proceed against corporations with great discretion, persuaded by the argument that punishing a corporation in effect punishes innocent stockholders and deprives them of their property.

Yet the public outrage surrounding recent corporate scandals culminated in the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("Sarbanes-Oxley"). (5) Although Sarbanes-Oxley exposes corporations to increased criminal liability, most recent investigations and prosecutions have targeted the wrongdoing of individual officers instead of prosecuting corporations. (6) It is likely that the new criminal penalties provided in Sarbanes-Oxley (7) will not increase prosecution of corporations except in cases where the organization has obstructed a federal investigation. (8) In a speech before the Corporate Fraud/Responsibility Conference, Attorney General John Ashcroft suggested that prosecutors should seek indictments for companies that obstruct federal investigations, "corporations that choose to prolong the damage to the public by refusing to cooperate with investigators should be forewarned: if you obstruct, if you impede--you leave your company vulnerable to public indictment, prosecution, and conviction.... [W]here corporate corruption extends to a corporate cover-up, we will not hesitate to seek a corporate conviction." (9) Indeed, in accord with these statements, the Department of Justice ("DOJ") did not prosecute Global Crossing, a corporation mired in an accounting scandal, after the company complied with DOJ investigators.

The broad range of principles guide the law of corporate criminal liability. These principles are outlined in the remainder of this Article. …
