unearthly challenge whooo!

Posted by jouste - October 9th, 2009

hey all you cool crazy cats!

so the sketch trade went swimmingly with dommi-fresh rocking out a sweet version of my lazarus legion dude! i'm pretty happy with my version of dommi's dangerous jim character, it was a blast to do and better happen again soon!

so i did up an entry for the halloween art contest, the story was hilarious and the entries are looking hot so be sure to get yours in the running! here's mine!

and newground news aside a very cool contest is going on that is eating up what little spare time i got going on its the 2nd annual unearthly challenge! a cool contest where teams make up 3d game environment scenes with current gen game specs. there's also a 2d contest as well! super cool stuff, last years had some awesome winners.

thanks for checking out the news dudes! *highfives*

Hey jouste that's awesome i even check your art portal every morning! just checking if there's anything new! by the way that Halloween entry is awesome! And why have any blams or saves? That's why your Neutral! Buy the way have you played Miami Shark? because it's awesome! by the way... Love your art!

jouste 2009-10-09 19:22:05

to be honest even after reading the blams and saves thing i'm still a little confused on how it all works.

and i would hate to blam something that didn't need it and they got burned because of me. i know i'll get it soon though.

thanks for lovin' the artwork!

ThePortalGuru 2009-10-09 19:37:42

Great job again, jouste! Maybe when that Unearthly Challenge is over, you could submit the entry to the art portal! Wish you much luck in the contest, and keep on doing what you're doing!

jouste 2009-10-09 19:37:42

i for sure will guru! i'm working on a 2d one as well as collaborating with a team, i'll be sure to show both. thanks for the luck! there is a lot of talented people entering so it's just been fun working alongside them.

thanks for stopping by, you always got the good info!

*highfives*

Daicos 2009-10-11 05:48:19

:O Lol I feel honored... ish
You visited my profile xD
Woo :P Haha anywho
Yeah I do a lot of both, writing at home, and drawing a school haha
Honestly though my drawings ain't half as good as what you do haha
But I'm sure you've had years of practice.
So I just gotta keep the practice up! :D
How long have you been drawing for? Out of curiousity

jouste 2009-10-11 05:48:19

you got it pal! just keep on practising.

let's see, i'm twenty six now, and my ma says i've been drawing since i was 2 (i don't really believe her but thats what she says). but i've realy been taking it as a serious career thing for 5 or so years.

thanks for dropping by again!

Daicos 2009-10-11 17:05:57

No thanks needed
I'm just happy to check up on your profile
and happy to continue to get replies from you =D
So you said that you've like been taking the past few years more seriously career wise, correct? Like what do you do then? Draw for businesses and stuff?
Cheers
-Daicos
P.S. Hope I'm not annoying you with all these comments xD

jouste 2009-10-11 17:05:57

nope, not annoying at all.

well now i do the odd commission on the side but for work i work at a game development studio doing environmental assets. we recently did the multiplayer for ghostbusters the video game for example. basically i want to be a full time concept artist at a company but my style just doesn't interest a lot of the big studios.

so i've been drawing more in my spare time (which is HARD cause there's so many good games out now) and doing my best!

thanks for taking interest! keep on keepin' on!

igustaqueso 2009-10-12 01:21:00

Your so fucking cool. I love you art <3. Favorite on newgrounds!

jouste 2009-10-12 01:21:00

wow thanks dude!

thats a super cool thing to say. hopefully i can keep you interested in my stuff! thanks for dropping by!

ILNGSM 2009-10-13 20:00:43

Nice jouste! you have 8 saves and 3 blams! you should switch your aura to light! because you have more saves than you have blams! So jouste if you post new things dont forget my advice!

jouste 2009-10-13 20:00:43

yeah thanks a lot for your advice ILNGSM. i finally figured out what it all meant! i guess you just gotta stay on top of all the new stuff that comes out to keep those things happening

thanks again! :D

GrenaderMan1 2009-10-15 20:06:03

Are you dead?

CptBeefcake 2010-01-10 18:06:52

I just found your stuff, and I'm loving it! Everything is so well polished and inventive, with a fun backstory to link it all together! I'm not a great still life artist, and you can forget about me trying to have colour, shading or depth but I'm working on it! Your work is a great source of inspiration.

unearthly challenge whooo!
