The 'O' Zone

[omelissokomos]

Until the bandwidth issue is resolved, I will be posting all my new sketches to my gallery at CYOC.net where I've copied over all the Muscle Makeovers and Maxxed Out Muscle pics. Most of my other stuff's already there in the Muscle Growth album.

I also put up my first "muscle comic" called A Growing Friendship, which is a holdover from the last AP/AR week. Better late than never.

So I hope this lessens the burden on the server somewhat. Watch this space for future announcements.

It's just awesome. The things you think of seem to come right out of my brain...sorry, didn't mean to scare ya!

[DalBear]

Your artwork is marvelous; I love the energy and immediacy of it. I think I'll look into something like PrideSites to host my images...

Keep up the great work!

[growin8]

The "muscle comic" is great, as is all of your work.

Thanks for all you do for our muscle growth community!

[omelissokomos]

For my site's third anniversary, I put up a BIG update of my CYOC gallery. Highlights include:

* Art
* Bears
* Bodybuilders
* Comics
* Muscle Growth (including 2 new Maxxed shots)

So c'mon over and check it out.

Looks great, O! Congrats! Just a couple of quick questions:

1) I'm a member of your site. When I went to click on some of the stories, I got a message saying I wasn't "authorized" to read them. What does that mean and how do I get "authorized"?

2) How can I convince you to immortalize me in your pencil sketching morphed glory?

Just asking...

You need to be logged into CYOC to read the stories. One thing I noticed is members who click on a direct link to the galleries get logged out. Log back in and you'll be ok.

Oh yeah, CYOC's not my site, though I do take up a lot of space.

2) How can I convince you to immortalize me in your pencil sketching morphed glory?

I've still got quite a queue of guys to makeover. I'll send you a PM with details when I'm done with those pics.

[omelissokomos]

Posted seven new drawings, including a new Super-Hulk, in the Comics album.

Wow Omelissokomos: Happy Third Anniversary to you for your website and your proud display of artwork, which is readily available for viewing for all your fans in the art gallery on CYOC.

Your muscle pics are awesome! Every day, I see your drawing on the home page of my little Yahoo group!

Congrats again on reaching your third year and may you go through many more scrolls, pens, bottles of paint, pencils and bottles of ink, while you continuously and generously use your incredible talents to provide us with your splendid artwork. We appreciate your patience and your hard work!

In the tradition of last year's When I Grow Up series, here's a little When I Blow Up muscle growth mayhem.

I haven't decided which professions I should do next, so if you've got any suggestions, let me know.

[Lufone]

O', you fricking rock.

May I suggest soccer player? Soccer players are so hot. Aussie rules football is nice, too.

[rextorres]

In the spirit of Tour de France: How about a muscular cyclist? A muscle-up version of Lance would be cool

Thanks, 'O'!

Your fan, always,

Scriptboy on CYOC

[More2048]

good to see the images are working again, and i think a blown up lance would intresting idea since he won and all be a nice prize lol. another idea would be a basketball player but more of the up direction lol

[glammaman2000]

But what's up with the wrestler?You can't wrestle alone!(&let's hear it for COLOR!The Final Frontier!)

[NCBodybuilder]

As always, AWESOME work, O! You are great for doing these and sharing them with all of us. Can't wait to see what comes next (thanks again for the ones of me, I loved being a subject of your artistic eye and talent!).

Great work, O. I think it's cool that you illustrated my story "Lardass."

:-)

[omelissokomos]

Thanks for suggestions guys. Here they are in living color.

It *is* one of my favorite stories. Thank you for writing it.

[deetrakt]

I especially like the "When I Blow Up" athlete series. There's almost a Japanese woodcut print quality to these (A BIG compliment) in the diagonals, colors, etc.

BTW, how come none of the male pro tennis players I've seen have upper arms and baskets both bigger than their racquets? Big improvement!

[Uhm-.-]

OMFG,that "When i blow up" series its fantastic,i want more pics of them :P this is great!!

[glammaman2000]

you've gone nuts,O!In a good way!Color work has command of perspetive,volume;like you've never shown before.You're a"finished"artist,now!(Which means you're just getting started!)Show us what you REALLY think!

[Mad Dog]

Maybe another one in the series could be a black belt.

[deetrakt]

...what about a boxer, a skateboarder, a rugby player, a diver?

[Aikuchi]

i thought boxer was done?

but i vote skateboarder ! and those squeegee washers too!

[omelissokomos]

I've got some good news and some bad news. The good news is that I've done five new drawings of collegeboy, DonnieJvilleNC, hulkmuscle, otkuman2003, and myself done in a cartoony style I wanted to try out.







The bad news is that there they only ones I've been able to do the past few weeks. My hand, and in particular, my forearm haven't been up to it. Find out why.

[hulkmuscle]

I dig the purple pants. :-)

[no name]

Hey O,

I like your new drawings (especially the way the muscles almost burst through shirts and pants in the first and second drawing...).

Thanks

[NCBodybuilder]

Hey O,

Your work as usual is KICK ASS, love the way the guys have their muscle busting through like no name commented on. LOVE YOUR ART!

Been doodling the past month and drawing's been getting easier to the point I can start doing cartoons again. Here's one I did of xythan_shadow whose stories are always a joy to read.



And for those of you who may have missed it, I posted another new pic here.

[xythan_shadow]

Yup, O is the man.


I mean, if he can make


look good, what can't he do?

[omelissokomos]

...what I'd look like as a redhead, and freakishly muscled beyond my wildest dreams. WOW! Thanks, O!

[CanadianGordon]

Since I love your drawings "O" I thought I'd give you some inspiration.


And a few pictures to use as an idea. Sorry I'm scowling. Didn't realize it when the pics were taken. It's me in uniform at work.

Besides us just to grab the arms.

[greeneear88]

[CanadianGordon]

"O" if I can get that big, I don't think I'd be doing Security anymore.

Thx though. Woof!

[Lufone]

I'm not usually into big-bellied men, but I find that Mario cosplay strangely alluring. V.V;
