Anyone have any of Falcoon's newer stuff? I've heard he's been posting new art but I haven't been keeping up with him.

Hey, Mr. Troll, how are you today?

Let me see if I have this right. You don't like him because he doesn't draw his characters facing a certain direction?

Lol. You idiot. All right handed artists draw characters facing left by default. This is because artists in general typically draw important facial features such as the eyes nose and mouth before they draw ears, hair, or even a finished jaw-line. If they draw the character facing right their hand will physically obstruct the character's face when they attempt to draw the secondary elements (ears, etc.). Since the ears, hair, jaw, neck, etc. are drawn in relation to the face, not being able to SEE the face doesn't work very well. Even in a scenario like story-boarding where one might actually require a character to face the other way, it's preferable to draw them the most comfortable way and simply h-flip afterwards.
Most non-artists wouldn't have pointed out what you did, and you probably already know about the above mentioned right-handed drawing dynamic. My guess is that you're a right-handed armature artist. You've probably noticed this difficulty in your own efforts, got self-conscious about it, and in a lame effort to prove something you now make a point of *sometimes drawing characters facing right. In your continued effort to boost yourself up you have attacked Falcoon (a kick-ass artist) for something so trivial. I'm a professional artist (digital art) so arrogance like yours is pretty transparent. This reminds me of novice artists who brag because they don't begin with the eyes when drawing faces, etc. Sheer stupidity.

LOL, that's stupid. I've always been a detractor of Falcoon, but that's too much.

The new stuff is really good, unlike the shit he did before. I hope he keeps up THIS way. The heads are still a bit too big, but it's cool.

Some truth mixed with some fanboysm (and LOL at "I am a pro artist"), but it's true, most right-handed artists tend to draw characters facing left. I do that a lot too, but since I noticed it I do facing both sides.
It's easier to the left.

And, by the way, the previous style of Falcoon was awful shit, not "style" or anything. Hyung Tae Kim was Falcoon but with skill. NOW Falcoon has a decent style, and a pretty cool artist. He evolved from shit to very good.

He's still a lousy designer, as the new Blue Mary design shows, but hey, it's a good improvement anyways. When he doesn't do designs like that he's great.

Don't feed the troll, seriously. If they can't see his progress or if they want to stay fucking hypocrites, then, there's nothing we can do.

Just to say, I hated Falcoon's art style too (not a reason to troll though) but recently he got really good. Also, I like his designs (not all, but most of them), so to each his own.

I AM a professional artist smart ass (I work for a software developer). I didn't point it out to brag. I just wanted to convey that what I'm saying is from experience and not just bs. The relevance of working in art professionally is central to this topic since Falcoon is now a professional, and the opinion of>>228609
is clearly that of an amateur. Amateur artists with aspirations of a career in art always beat themselves up over stupid crap like this. They imagine that there is one right way to do things and that any shortcuts mean they are lacking in some way. Once you start working in games, comics, etc. you immediately realize how many tricks artists use to achieve a finished piece. This is because unlike a classic style like oil painting (for instance) which is meant to achieve a 'living breathing' work celebrating the methodology itself (like music), digitally art is meant to look iconic. It's all about the finished product, not how you get there (hence the lack of prestige. Lol). That's just my opinion, but for what it's worth I do support myself (quite comfortably) on a salary earned doing graphics and art for video games.

Oh and fyi: Falcoon’s jump in skill is because he started working professionally. Most artists are lazy when it comes to follow through of actual projects. They simply draw whatever they feel like, whenever they feel like it (which usually isn’t 9 to 5). Once artists start working professionally they have no choice but to draw varying content, everyday for several hours. If they ever want to pursue personal ideas, then they will also spend their free time drawing at home. When this happens their skill absolutely sky-rockets because of the insane amount of practice.

I love Falcoon's stuff (and always have,) but seriously, you fags...

That's what I was thinking, too. His style became more solid with KOF 2003, and I saw his great evolution with the character arts of KOF MI2.

You are an idiot; if you have to say that you are a profesional artist (which by itself is a hollow statement that doesn't add to the argument, a fallacy) it means you fail to prove your point AND brag.

Besides, who cares if you are a pro? You know how many pros posted here and they were shit? Lurk the fuck more.

>>228669

Working profesionally has nothing to do with his improvement (in fact sometimes is the other way around, since you have to hurry to do your stuff in time); Falcoon worked up to now with SNK profesionally and he was shit. He decided to change, and he changed for the good, and now is a decent artist.

Agreed. What's hillarious is that I had always gone to his web site even when he was small time, and I only realized that he'd been hired when I saw him sitting at the E3 SNK booth signing autographs. I was like, holy shit it's falcoon. lol.

Maybe you don't get the point. But I wouldn't expect a random 4channer to have an IQ higher than 10, so that's okay.

I despise big feet on women. [actually, I don't like them on my favorite male character designs either] Big lips are kool and, depending on the character, appropriate. But huge/oversized ones ain't my cup of tea.

Combine the two and Fatgoon has an unlikely-to-be-pleased customer. Not that he, you, or anyone else here should give a damn. It's just my preference.

The pieces I actually do like from him are few and far between.

OK, then … Did you know that there's a new Pictoplasma book available in stores? You may want to go to the website for that one.

I'll just say that you're so obsessed with his OLD and UGLY stuffs that you're completely blind or/and stupid. Remain an idiot then, no one care.
