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

I think this one is the best http://t.umblr.com/redirect?z=http%3A%2F%2Fgreatinspire.com%2F25-beautiful-pencil-drawing%2F&t=OTQ1NGM2N2YwZDIwZjNlZGM1MWEyZTA0M2E2OGIwNjUzMDYwOWVkZiw5VkJQWFhUUQ%3D%3D your hair looks good to me, i also like the TinTin one.

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

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

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

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)

 

[James Holland]

i want a metal detector too

 

[Sophia]

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

This one is more elaborate but I feel that your picture comes "from the heart" and was drawn for pleasure (which I think is more important), while this one seems more like a result of hard work.

hard work can be fun

Thank you!
No, it's just a (serious) hobby.

Thank you!

I just had a quick look and a couple of likes on the later ones

truly stunning art, zoob, my hat off to you

Like this one?

Did you see this one Dave? I think it's awesome.

If I make my drawing hobby any more serious than I do, people I know are going start calling me addicted

no, must have been a page or 2 back, I didn't go through the whole thread

Zooby ... stunning art !

A lady i know is trying to get into art professionally, It is a hard task as one has to have a name but getting your art onto the internet is a good start.

 

[James Holland]

Like this one?

maybe without the people on board and also just a common household balloon opposed to a Zeppelin but essentially yes

 

[Dembadon]

I like to mountain bike, climb (bouldering), and "work" in our yard. Taking care of the yard is relaxing, while mountain biking and climbing sort-of "reboots" my brain.

 

[Dembadon]

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

I like your drawing.

I'm so artistically inept that if I tried to draw something similar, you wouldn't be sure whether you were looking at a house or a sketch of a giraffe.

sounds similar to my drawing capability

 

[Kevin McHugh]

I may not be in Zoob's league when it comes to talent, but I like to write poetry. Here is one of my favorites.

Sheeple

Mindless masses grazing
On the spoon fed pablum of media whores
Regurgitated garbage greedily gulped down by the
Plain vanilla sheeple whose fleece is ignorance
You can hear the sheeple bleating
I have nothing to hide the law I abide
Constant refrain droned and intoned until
The foggy veil of myopia envelops their fragile existence
Jack booted wolves mill among the flock unnoticed
Hungrily eying the unconcerned and the unaware
Herding the multitudes into the land of liberties lost
Like lambs to the slaughter, pass the mint jelly

Thank you Well, you’re a modern artist, then! There was an art meme going around a while back that said something to the effect of “modern art = I could’ve done that + yeah, but you didn’t”.
