My New Desktop Pic

brk_012

My new friend Don certainly captured everything in this one pic, didn’t he. I would give anything to be able to draw like that. I can write a little bit, but my drawing and painting stopped progressing at the kindergarten level.

  2. Artemes says:

    Awh, that’s beautiful. :)
    Great artwork, I agree, perfectly captures what’s going on with you and WoW.

  3. MariEllen says:

    aww poor hobbes needs a chew toy!

  4. Lynda says:

    What a gorgeous illustration! Please tell me draws for a living and if not, he should consider it.

  5. Truss says:

    Nice drawing! does he do any commission work? :)

  6. Kinzlayer says:

    I like Truss’ comment and I would love to get that puppy errr kitty on a 8.5 by 11 for my cube.

  7. Pike says:

    Aww, beautiful! Puts me to shame, he does. /tips hat to the artist

  8. Sarissan says:

    A very fine piece of art, indeed. The new blog is great, and I will be sharing it with my dad, He can’t relate to the WoW but he certainly can relate to the Air Force and steak content.

    cheers and /cheers

    Gorgeous artwork! Wish I had that kind of talent — I can’t even draw a straight stick figure.

    For some reason I’m craving steak and beer now — glad to see you blogging somewhere Daniel!

    Amazing illustration. And fitting!

    Kudos on the new blog. As a regular BRK.net reader, I feel at home here already.

  11. Misneach says:

    Wow, that is awesome.

  12. Mark Williams says:

    liking the new blog , real y nice work don

  13. Wow, that is truly amazing work! O.O And I can’t for the life of me, make out what BRK is saying. I’ve added your new blog (replacing your old one…sniff) on my blogroll.

    Hope to hear more from you soon,

    Ooo that is stunning!

    I’ve been wanting to draw something for you as well, but my tablet went fashizzle. >.<Still waiting for that new one to get here x.x

  15. Klin says:

    That is, for lack of a better saying, picture perfect.

    I especially like the face… it’s amazing!
    Too bad I draw cartoons, and not wicked awesome stuff like that.

  16. Hagfelsh says:

    Wow brk that’s beautiful! (I can still call you BRK, right? That’s how we met, after all)

  17. kunukia says:

    Oh, that’s beautiful!

  18. Steve says:

    Very beautiful! I agree it captures things nicely, doesn’t it?

    Thanks for sharing it!

    I can’t draw either. My friend drew my banner. But yeah the picture takes you in and you experience it with the 5 senses. I can feel the warmth coming from the fire place and hear the flickering of the flames. I can hear Hobbes growl while you touch his fur. Smell the bear and taste the steak and cheese in my mouth.

  20. Dianth says:

    How awesome. You have some great friends :)

  21. Clioratha says:

    That is just a perfect picture. Would that I had that kind of talent. Or even friends with that kind of talent.

    Enjoy the pint!

  22. Kelli says:

    A perfect last hurra for a retiring hunter.

  23. Midnitemoo says:

    DAMMIT! Stupid picture. Stupid artist. Must have had a virus in the picture. Made my monitor go all cloudy again.

    Stupid Hobbes. *sniffs*

  24. Steve says:

    I’ve got a question.

    Some people have little avatar pics on their posts, but most don’t. How do you set yourself up to have an avatar pic?

  25. Ellijah says:

    My, oh my…. It’s… Beautiful! *drool*
    Really nice! I wish I chould draw like that! (Who doesn’t >.O)

  26. Evea says:

    The look on your face…. Such subtle contentment. It says, “I’m ok”. Your friend must really know you.

  27. Iain says:

    It’s pretty cool. I’m good at drawing objects, like swords and staves and stuff for my D&D game, but I could never draw humanoids, and I was awful at filling in a picture with miscellany like Don can.
    BRK looks pretty content. 3 months of drinking by a fire with no chance of repeated deaths in instances? Yeah…

  28. Andreas says:

    Hobbes need a bone, or atleast a ball of yarn : )

  29. Nimal says:

    That HAD to leave a small tear on your face Daniel. What a beautiful picture and so true!
    Well I hope the part “Just takin’ a break” is true. ;)

    Don’t eat too much of your selfmade steaks Daniel or you’ll become the dorf that you’ve send on a long well earned vacation. :P

    Awesome picture!

    BTW @ Andreas….Hobbes would never have a ball of yarn! An undead priest, maybe, a ball of yarn, NOT! :)

  32. smart001 says:

    I came to say how nice and perfect that picture is. I printed it off and taped an orc face on top of the dwarf…just kidding.

    Absolutely gorgeous. I agree with the couple of other posts, I would pay to have that picture printed off so I could hang it up.

  33. Jeffrey says:

    Darn it, ya made me cry at work – i’m a big sally.

    I loved your work and ethic sir! Great picture as it captures it all :)

  34. ambell says:

    wow, this really is beautiful….. *sniff*

  35. Steve says:

    Thanks for the help with the gravatar, Daniel!

  36. Stubz says:

    Amazing artwork. It’s my new desktop picture too :)

  37. Ridireglas says:

    That is a really great picture of you BRK. I am sad taht you are done with WoW, I still sift through all of your blogs about everything WoW, and not-WoW. To be honest though……I cant wait for more Aiman Howell stories. They always have me rolling in tears laughing!!! Looking forward to many more!!

    /salute from a fellow Airman

  38. Jamie says:

    awww it’s fabulous!

  39. Clifdog says:

    Wonderful picture…. and yes you were right we do develop a relationship with our pixelated pet… maybe that’s why I have such a hard time on alts… no real useable pet….
    sigh..

    good luck. DH

    Beautiful !

  41. Gunder says:

    But where’s your trusty Loquenahak?

  42. TLP says:

    We disagree with Gunder, we think Hobbes is more original!
