Just ran across your thread and I really love these La Corda avatars! I just watched the anime, and I was bummed to see that not many ppl seem to have any work done on it (except for the Crescendo website), so I was really excited to see yours. It would be especially cool if you could do icons on all the characters w/ the instruments (Shimizu w/ his cello, Hihari w/ his trumpet, Kaho w/ her violin, Kuchiura (sp?) w/ the piano). I can see your improvement over time by looking at all the icons you've done: keep up the good work!

Well if I decide to do Corda icons again, Ill try to find scans of them with their instruments. I got all of those from a friend of mine and theyre all from the game. But Ill keep an eye out for intrument ones. Quote:
Thanks, I adore him and its always fun to make icons of something that hot, also can be said for Lulu and Fai Ok small update since I haven done many icons lately... My new fav anime to make icons of is Nougami Neuro, his expressions are just too funny And of course more Mononoke...shame this series was only 12 epis The 5th one and my current avy are the same, I just added text to my avy and lightened it a bit Lack of subs has left me in despair so I made icons! and one friends-only banner for livejournal Ok next time...more Neuro, Ghost Hunt (surprised arent you ) and Zombie-Loan.

Dear god I made a sig! Not the best but this was only 3rd attempt at actually cropping a scan or something similar. Magic wand is a god send! Along with blur Btw Im well aware of the green blurb next to Mai...
I like Mai's side better then Naru's, she cropped better for some reason. I made a few CLANNAD ones, Ill post those later. On a related note, this is the first sig I ever made and used myself since I prefer icons its odd to actually see something I made underneath my post.

haha nice work on ur Recent tries at sigs Manju =3
Good job on the cropping areas. U have an eye to crop in the right places ^^ as for the christmas siggy, if u know how to use the cloning stamp tool then u could have gotten rid of the that little green blurb from the source. IF u don't know? (click on clone stamp tool, then alt+click on the area in which u wish to use the colors that are similar which would be the red on her outfit as a base. then using a good brush size click on the area with the text and slowly get rid of the text. ^__^ ) btw love the Avies u make WMB

Another attemp at a sig. Actually made this one before the Ghost Hunt one. This was my first attempt at coloring a background and using the brush effect Bigger vers This is the orginal stock so it looks a bit different http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y20...sm_muffler.jpg

sigh...bumping...
Current sig Im using. Nothing special just mostly cropping and changing the rotation. A little bit of blur just to smooth the edges. My fav part is the text though I still havent tried the clone stamp tool yet since I havent made anything that requires it yet Two more simple CLANNAD sigs. I like the artwork CLANNAD puts out there so making sigs and icons is really nice since the stock is already very cool.

I liked all your stuff, especially the Mononoke signatures, but I loved this Kazuma icon the best. Fits his personality all to well, lmao. Good job overall, but I do think some of your works could use slightly thicker borders. But that's just a noob's opinion.

@The Chaos: Thanks glad you like it, I liked that one the most of the CLANNAD ones I did.
Quote:
No I dont have any more of little Naru at the moment cuz that pic was very hard to get the color well on it since its so bright. I may try redoing a bit later since Ive tweaked my style a bit lately. Edit: @SI: Mononoke is so fun to iconize I really liked that Kazuma one as well, it does totally fit him. Im not a huge fan of borders alot of times I forget them But I might try tweaking that as well. Ok small update, bigger one coming soon. All these are based off the Baccano! playing cards

Wow! I really like those Baccano! avatars. I didn't know there was Baccano playing cards. In any case, what I like about them is that they all show off a bit of the characters' personalities pretty well (especially considering they are static avies). They are simple, but well executed. Nice job. (I would save them, but my computer and portable disc drive are suffering enough as it is, so I won't, lol. )

As for your comment on the Nagisa sig, I actually didnt stretch it at all since the org pic was huge to begin with, I cropped it but always maintained the size, since I just cropped around her face. So Im not sure why it appears stretched to you since I didnt reset the width at all. Hmmmm Maybe the image I used was altered in some way.

bumping slightly but update as well!
More Neuro I changed my style a bit btwn the first few Neuro icons and the last 3 so thats why they look different. Im about half way through TTGL (well Im so the time skip) but I HAD to iconize this series. Also used My Chem's Welcome to the Black Parade lyrics since that amv is too awesome and the words fit. Oh and a line from The Killers made its way in as well. Shigofumi, my latest obsession Only a few icons so far since Im in the middle of capping more of the series. (Yes Pelli Im aware non of them have borders...-_- actually I dont think any in this post do ) Next update will probably be the rest of TTGL post time-skip and more Shigo, god willing. Comments are love and appreciated.

@Chaos: thanks glad you liked them
Ok small update, actually getting a bit better on my cropping, made this banner for a friend, made the bg first, just something simple since I wanted Dino to be the main focus Dino was a pain to erase around, epsc his hair since I havent tried extracting with PS yet. this is the org pic Im midly obsessed (ok really obsessed) with Hibari from KHR, I havent made alot of KHR icons yet but I did make this one which I like, I used "curves" in PS to change the color a bit to make it bluer since its wintery to begin with. org image Any comments are welcome of course ^^ Id like to know if Im improving at all from my earlier posts.
