Nice One Fargalex

[Vent-Axia]

I saw the picture on the contents page, and thought it looked your kind of style, and indeed it was you.

Nice one!

[pretentious_helvetica]

Wahey! Congrats!

[FargalEX]

FUCK HOW COMES I HAVEN'T BEEN INFORMED ABOUT THIS

HOLY DAUOSHFUIABSIUFBAEIUGJDNGIURIUGA

[FargalEX]

Seriously, I wasn't told anything and they didn't respond to my emails. Now I'm pissing myself with glee.

[jimmmUK]

Anyone care to scan the page?

[FargalEX]

Don't spoil the surprise, I'll be buying 12 copies of it tommorow.

[jimmmUK]

I might have to pop into WHSmith tomorrow and have a browse.

[Vent-Axia]

For those who are interested these are the four images in there (all found on this forum):

and this is the text:

FargalEx is the pseudonym of Sam Miller, an 18-year-old design student with the ambition of making it as an animator. There's a heavy fantasy element to Sam's work, much of which he readily admits revolves around his own humour filled universe. James 'Couk' Downing, Pete Fowler, and Japanese artists such as RakGadjet are cited as his biggest influences, along with the game art of Jet Set Radio and Katamari Damacy.

There's also a bit of text Fargal wrote about each image, but I can't be bothered typing that in here.

That's exceedingly cool, Fargal. Congrats.

James 'Couk' Downing

's true, he raised me as a wee nipper on the cruel streets of Estonia.

Also, shush Tracer, you card.

[Wickedkitten]

absolutely fantastic, it is wicked drawing.

Nice one Fargal.

Incidently, typing your name into Google image search results in TWO pages of stuff. (!)

Can't top being in Computer Arts Magazine, that, I suppose.

[Van]

Fargal's ace. I'm currently using this as my wallpaper, and I might pop in to Smiths to pick up the mag.

Kudos.

I get 23 pages (about 382 results). Most of it's just deviantart stuff though.

[FargalEX]

Also, a huge amount of thanks for all the support I've got here at Rllmuk. If it wasn't for Rayn I wouldn't be in the magazine. GROUP HUG

[pretentious_helvetica]

Now get yourself doing a tutorial.

[FargalEX]

I really can't see what I could produce a tutorial on. I'm sure there's been loads of illustrator and character design tutorials already.

[Chris303]

Well done mate, always thought you're work was great. Couldn't do me a nice 1600 x 1200 version of the rainbow man for me desktop could ya?

Or you could do a 1680 x 1050 for my brand spanking new laptop I ordered today! To celebrate your exposure or something. Pretty please!

Edit: Actually, "Rainy Vs"!

[timgp]

o/\o Fargal

[ChrisN]

Awesome stuff Fargal. Much deserved.

[Couk]

Hooray, a mention! Despite nothing to do with computer arts!

I'll buy it tomorrow, sam, well done.

[Tofu]

Nice one Fargel:)

[Seerow]

[Michael J Glocks]

Seriously, do a search and you'll find illustrator tutorials are lacking, especially ones aimed at one armed monkeys who have no eyes like me.

So go, go now, write a great tutorial we can all learn from!

And well done on getting in the mag again!

[roskelld]

That's bloody great news.

I'm still shocked every time I read that you're only 18.

Your style and compositions are so, well, mature (in a cartoony way).

I've sent round the two Dave Cube images you did and everyone loves them.

Great stuff.

Seriously, I wasn't told anything and they didn't respond to my emails. Now I'm pissing myself with glee.

Aren't you getting paid then? They should send you magazines free.

[FargalEX]

Aren't you getting paid then? They should send you magazines free.

←

No, it's the exposure section so my "pay" will be getting featured in the magazine, for expsoure.

HOWEVER. This morning I've visited several newsagents in search for the latest issue with no luck. All I've been able to find is the December edition, which I picked up almost a month ago.

What issue have I been featured in?
