Thanks everyone!

I would like to see everyone else's when they are done. This is like on Pendako's forum, they have a section called "Color Me" and people post line art for other to color.
I'm glad other people wanted to color my picture. I'll post the line art when I do another.

tsuki_desu · 2003-11-17, 19:30

That's amazing! I wish I could draw like that...

dragonstar13 · 2003-11-18, 07:33

That is really sweet Pepperstar.
Keep up the good work.
I look forward to more.

Nice background which I like the most. Hmm I should give cging this a try ahhahaaha.

fenrihr · 2003-11-28, 04:09

well thought i'd update what i've done....

e'en though i'm not done.

Sesshoumaru · 2003-11-28, 09:13

Here's my shot (my first try at coloring), although I haven't shaded it yet, just the basic colors. Oh well..

btw, you may notice that I've removed a few things from the lineart. Those were things that I didn't know what it was so instead of not coloring them I removed them

and also, how do you make shadings look that good?? The only tool i've used in photoshop to make shadows is the burn tool, but it doesn't get that good. Is there some other tool?

fenrihr · 2003-11-28, 12:48

i usually use the multiply and screen brushes, then maybe a little bit of white on hilights, and black on shadows to give them a little bit more contrast. then blend it w/ smudge tool until it looks like a smooth gradient then blur it so the edges of the gradient aren't easily seen. that's how i do it anyway...

it takes some work

PeppstaR · 2003-11-30, 20:57

Cool! Anyone else have their progress?

Mundain · 2003-11-30, 23:58

hehe, I started on the girls armor, then I dunno what happend, Ill finish it tomarrow, I had totally forgotten about it :-/ lol I hope mine is up to snuff

Oneesama · 2003-12-01, 02:48

GATX207_Blitz · 2003-12-01, 05:07

WOW so many good artists. peppstar did you do that with photoshop??? well whatever was used to make it it looks really good. Everyone else who has colored Pep's work is really good as well I could never do that kind of thing in photoshop.

Tomomi · 2003-12-01, 05:16

Wow... I wish that I have that kind of talent. Sigh, my art sucks like hell man... Anyway, good job!

To give it basic coloring like I've done doesn't really require any skill. You just have to zoom in and out and fill in colors

The shading is the hard part (at least for me)

Yeah, I use Photoshop 7.0. I'm trying to save up for Photoshop CS but I might just wait for a while for the price to drop.

Thanks!

As for being a "pro". Well it depends on your definition of "pro"

I have been paid for my art for a little over a year now. My portfolio on my website is all of the work that I have been paid to do. Well, at least the published work, I can't post the more recent stuff that hasn't been published yet.

I personally like this piece a lot because I feel that I was able to capture about 80% of the original art style. What was flattering is that I had print outs of this picture for sale at the last show I did and someone thought it was original art and not fan art. The problem was that they thought that I just downloaded the picture and printed it.
