At least you find pleasure in making that abomination You've made my day . . . what do you sketch?

 

[James Holland]

anything really. just depends what i feel like

 

[James Holland]

buildings are quite fun to draw.

 

[ProfuselyQuarky]

I only drew one building ever. Now that was an abomination. I'm much more suited to doodle people, I think.

[James Holland]

that is without doubt astronomically better than the ones i draw
if that is an abomination then what is a master piece?

I find your picture very appealing, some thing like a run down bordello.

A very subjective question, but I've always liked this picture

We can all imagine that that one of phind's bowls is inside dining room

That is a wonderful picture. I enjoy drawing too, but it is usually satire and sometimes distasteful for a place like PF. Just recently I drew a picture of my friend and I fighting off giant roaches in the basement of our workplace. He had dual Uzi's and I had a flamethrower. These were big roaches.

When my back isn't bothering me, I think about watching a strongman competition but it occurs to me how strenuous it would be and I go read a good book instead

Oh tell me about it. It can be really tough watching people lift weights and do work. You better get yourself a glass of lemonade too so you don't get dehydrated.

I was kind of picturing a bed and breakfast, but oh well

that most definitely reminds me of fallout

Sorry of course it is a run down bed and breakfast, it was just my quirky imagination run riot
Are you going to show us more of your etchings?

That sounds so weird, it's beautiful

These roaches were meaner and dirtier. It was in regards to a comment our boss made about how grimy our new building has become. We imagined walking downstairs to get some paperwork and being mauled to death by giant insects and other creatures.

well it inspired me to make a fallout thread.
must be hard to draw well. sounds epic though

i didnt get your first comment but now i see

You can see them for yourself

Phind's website is more impressive, but what can I say? I'm a student who lacks knowledge in a lot of things . . .

 

[James Holland]

I to have an unorthodox fascination with fire, i like to refer to it as pyromania

Who said anything about it being any good! I couldn't sleep one night so I drew it in about 30 minutes.

I hope that doesn't lead you into any legal troubles in the future

@zoobyshoe is known for some amazing artwork. I'll leave it to him whether he wants to share or not. Either way, it's really good though.

I'm a social pyromaniac. I build big fires in a fire pit instead of burning down the neighbors houses. When I was young and we were in North Carolina, sometime in the 50's when there were small-business tobacco barns everywhere, one of the bigger ones caught fire. A big wooden tobacco barn full of dry tobacco, all burning, is a sight to behold. I decided right then and there that I was going to be a pyromaniac, but the thought of going to jail keeps me contained

One hobby i used to have was metal detecting, a good hobby if you like the outdoors and identifying bits of metal, my best find was a gold ring, i sold it for £300 but metal detecting is not all about money it is about history, many of my finds went to a museum.
One time i found a patch in a field that produced a lot of mixed foreign coins of all ages which had me baffled, only later did i realize the field was at the back of a church and the coins were what the vicar had thrown out from the collection tray.
Another time i had a good signal from my detector, so i dug a hole without success so i dug deeper and deeper for over an hour only to find a spade.

You should have been brave and run into save the tobacco

I always thought that metal detecting was a distinguished hobby--and it inevitably gives the individual a lot of stories to tell. Wolram, now I want a metal detector!

The big problem with metal detecting is getting permission from the land owners and finding a good site, you have to find a place where there has been a lot of use.
one field i searched came up with loads of molten lead and musket balls and one silver penny that dated the site to the civil war.

There's a British show called, Detectorists (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detectorists). It's streaming on Netflix if you are in the USA; not sure about other countries. It's worth the watch. The series is very endearing.

It's a long thread. The link is to the last, most recent, page. You can work backward from there if you like.

what is really fun to burn is a balloon filled with hydrogen
and better still 2 part H 1 part O in a balloon (i don't know why that doesn't make water but it dose make a big bang)

i want a metal detector too
