Gonna post all my stuff here now to avoid cluttering up *HACK COUGH PHOOEY* the art forum.

If anyone want to do lineart on this, please do. I wonder what it'll look like but I can't do it myself.



EDIT: Somehow I think I'm gonna regret posting this.. I messed up my own face (har har) and my hand is.. well I don't know what it's doing. But it hurts.

What the... No love for Spunky? Fine. I see how it is.

Nice art though. Better than anything I could ever do anyway.

I was gonna make myself say "I love spunk" but that's just asking for ejaculation jokes.






















I do love you though. <3

EDIT: Restyled my hair. I think I'm gonna let it grow now. -.-

You look posessed.

It seems like it's easier to draw with a tablet, once you get used to it.

It is, actually. Erasing is easier and the pressure thingies in the tablet help me out a lot. Here's another picture, tried to do the eyes here. :p

If you want to do the eyes fill 'em up and make a white highlight in them. Otherwise they look very lifeless.

Like so:

EDIT: Messing around with the pen tool D:



Anyone around who can explain to me exactly how it works so I can try line-arting my pieces?

That last pic looks good, mate.

Already alot more natural with those eyes.

You should try to colour some of them some time.

I wouldn't know how D:
You do have photoshop right?

Well there is a way to make your lines transparent.

On your layers pad select the layer with your lineart.
Then next to layers you see channels. On the channel pad you see a little dotted circle on the lower left side. Hit it and you should see a selection come up. Then press delete. Now you should have erased all the white background from your pic and just have the black lines on a layer.
Create a new layer under the lines one and start colouring. First apply the base colours on seperate layers. Lock those layers and then start shading with a soft brush with the flow set to 25% or something. You should try it it's alot of fun.

Pretty dang good but try using a light blue colour for your sketches, then zoom in a bit and go slow as you go over your work with a pen or black coloured brush.

If you're using PS, drop that and start using OpenCanvas4 Plus IMO.
PS is best for inking/perhaps colouring.
