This topic may seem stupid but if the way the whole world particularly America sees us is anything to go by, the present state of non-leadership, the Jos and Niger Delta thingy, someone mentioning going on 2 military tours (thats 1 year active military participation) in Nigeria in a futuristic movie should tell us that some people either think there's going to be a war in Nigeria sometimes soon or they are working to ensure that the war happens. either way, i think we should all be worried and be on the look out.

@ davidylan,

God ( by whatever name you call him) CANNOT DIE. If yours came to eartyh and then tasted death (which he created by the way) then you are correct that can not be the same Creator of heaven, earth and all there is that Arabs (its just a language bro!) call Allah.

And the capital G thing, as you can see grammar even affects the God spelling, so its just that, language.

And i understand your firm stand on your faith, its good. i mean if your pastor came upon sunday with a salamu alaykun greeting in church wouldnt you think he was possesed?

live your faith bro, God (Allah, Chi, Olorun, Jehova) etc) knows whom best serve him.

for those who were there during childbirth, i salute your courage (even though i fear you had a "side game" for the months after), for those who'dlove to, i say, prepare your mind for what follows. for the ladies, youj ust want him there because you need someone to blame for the pain and you want him to see. (honestly, you dont "need" him there)

for me, my first son and my second twin boys were born with me outside the labour room, the midwife didnt want me in, i didnt want me in and my wife knew why.

i'm a creative person and my mind creates a lot, a bit too realistically sometimes, so when i think of (just think o) something that large coming out of my wife's, i go off sex! just turns off. 7 months after our first son, i didnt touch or even think sex with my wife ( and i didnt get a side game either!). she didnt like it.

the twins case is different however, my imaginations is under control, but i still dont want to be in there if we're having any more babies. a big "if"

lets just say,its psychological. call me what you will.

what we are looking at is a flat painting on the floor, the guy at the far end is standing on it, the image is shot from an angle tha makes it look 3d. its cool though

Omosexy

you are something, i like what youre doing to all this guys here. youknew all guys dream is to have unattached sex and you decided to write a "book" using nairaland as research material. the senator being your dad part? lets just say thats what gave you away.

but its a nice (what do i call it o?) "strategy"


And in case yourefor real, you are a dog, street or no street.

@ Gamine, glad you liked 1 at least! the rest are just variations. you photoshoped you pix pretty nicely too!

@ Ujuslims, Its Sir-GAI (as in sir-guy) and loved the notes, how'd you get all those currency lines? great man!

I used Corel Draw for the logos. the first one's embossing is done by applying 3D emboss filter to a shadow.

i also use photoshop, flash, 3DMax, Illustrator and Xara. but i'm a vectors Guy(gai)

more details on the competetion and i think i have something coming up that most Nairalanders will be interested in.

coming soon

lets get this started!!!!!!!!!!

@ moondust

Hi man, i lost ur number, can you send it to me again? we need to talk.

Have you been contracted to do the indomitables comic book? i think us Illustrators are being played against each other. pls let me have your number again ( a text perhaps) and i'll call you.

Thanks

while we await the commencement of the show heres a little something to get us started

@ grafikdon

Been wanting to meet with the persn/people who did Chika and i knew instantly it was the same crew that did ijoya. i'm with ICStudios and we do 2D animation, i'll like for us to meet and discuss, i'm sure we can help each other out towards yuour next project. have you ever thought of a collabo job?

We do Illustrations, Comics, Animation, Video graphics/production and Advertising.

Lets talk. call the office on 01-8752922 or call me on my cell 08023515239. just ask to speak with sirgai.

expecting.

what amazing is the many xtians responding to a muslim oriented post. is the original intending to find out why and understand or has already made up his mind and just wanted to ridicule islam?

islam like many other faith has been practised wrongly by people and on hadiths there are so many untrue ones out there.

to understand better google up understanding islam and learn.

salam

something else i did

an image i worked on for a book cover. its a combination of hand drawing with Photoshop work.
and unlike what many beleive, coreldraw is the bomb! i'll sjhow you guys some works soon and you tell me which software you think did it.

its not the software guys, its how you use and explore it.

Flash developers talk to some flash users to develop the new flash because they do things with flash that even the developers never knew flsh could do.

There are some really creative designers here, thank God the notion of dead graphics in Nigeria can be put to rest.

here's me suggestion for a logo design competetion

Company name: Nairaland extreme
business: web forum and ideas development
design logo, logotype and call card sample
size: logo- 300x500 pixels any which way
call card: 3.5 x 2 inches anyway

5 samples per submission with name (screen or otherwise) , location, process and software used.

we should look at a 2 months time span.

Note the object is not the competition itself but for all of to see and learn a thing or two. i know i'm willing to learn.

lets get this show on the road for the best Nairaland Graphics designer 2007

here's something i did for a real estate company

gamine has a point.

creativity is often associated with art oriented or literary business, however as we say at icstudios, creativity has no limits because it is life.

anything you do when done creatively produces a whole new dimension to it. look at the ipod.

creativity itself is a career and a whole way of thinking. its about creating a link in things that before had no possiblity of being linked. so anything goes.
engineering, medicine, astrology, religion, art, technology, advertising, design, chemistry, geology, cinematography, name it, just do it differently.

Identify what aspect of human living your creativity tends toward and latch on to that.

anyone interested in finding out more from me, i suggest we get together either online or in person, maybe a meet of some sort, email me :gaisalam@yahoo.com or call number in previous posts

Kadey, seun, grafikdon and gbade have spoken the best.

the market for cartoons, animation and comics is large in nigeria. we are talking about it arent we? and if every nairaland member buys a comic book made in naija regularly i can make a career with it.

you will be amazed at the number of people who watched and still watch pinky and the brain.

My studio has been in the creativity business for a while and we've produce a comic book in the period and found the number one problem - marketing and distribution ( the people who like comic and animation are not accessed)
that and the following:

in Nigeria, everybody wants to do their own thing (it took Disney - with their $50million plus budget and over 200 animators) to do lion king, how long do you think it will take 1 person on no budget to do one?

We have the skills and structures, we dont have the direction, we dont have the team spirit.

For comics, people think its all about the colours or the action or even the art. comics is about all of this and more. most existing comic concepts we have are developed with just the creator in mind.

there's more but, in time.

in the mean time, anybody seriuosly interested in making Nigerian comics for home and abroad can call me. lets build the industry that's ripe to blow.

ICStudios - 08023515239 (ibrahim)

creativity is life

for the creative mind mostly you'll have to work either alone or an environment that provides a flexible work structure. you could try any of the follwoing:

Copy writing for an advertising agency
Illustration
Comic art
Digital colouring
Computer Graphics
Product packaging design
concept development for movies and other productions
Archiecture
3d modeling and animation
2d mation

and moondust, thats a cool artwork! you colour too? thats great! give me a call or something okay? 08023515239.

i am a man of science and beleive all things should be proven by experiment. please any lady on the forum willing to participate in this activity for the future love and sex and ultimately humanity should contact me.

it will be a controlled experiment, half will be kissed, half will be romanced, the result will be ascertained by finger action and noted after 5 minutes.

this is for science sake.

forum members will get the first report with pictures if required. remember, this is for science o!!!!

this is it! you guys are up for serious comic drawing, Nigreian way? for the international market?

my true name is Ibrahim Ganiyu, i head ICStudios, we published Dark Edge and are into a lot of other shizzle in the Graphics, animation and Illustration biz. I'll post up some of our works and you guys tell me what you think.

for starters, we handled the INdomintables Illustrations (nort the crappy 3d that was purportedly done in Canada or the equally crappy recent 2d animation)

let me know
