Description Sooo I colored it. I had no idea how I wanted to do it so I tried a different technique, especially since I'm coloring a different picture that way and it's more important than this one so I got some good practice in. Wow I can't write good sentences tonight. Either way, It was . . . like. I guess it ended up being really similar to the way I color, only kinda backward. It was really weird.

In any case, here's Di. I'm pretty awesome at drawing geometric shapes in the background and using my photoshop grass to impress you! AHA!

. . .

I dunno what else to type.

Di and art © that's me!

Excellent line art and the colors are gorgeous! You HAVE to tell me how you did the coloring!! You must you must! lol. Anyways - very very well done!

Shinerai In reply to ChazKemp [2009-03-17 22:35:57 +0000 UTC]

why thank you very much! Really I have a layer of flats, and then a solid color shadow layer which is very dark and above the flats layer. then i put a mask on it and use black to "erase" revealing the flats underneath as highlights. you can change the color of the shadow layer later C: which is how i got the rainbow effect on the whites.

well that's not how i did THIS piece in particular, but that would be an easier way to get the same result.

I'll have to figure out a way to translate that into vector usage. (I'll do it tho!!) Thanks for sharing.

Heh heh, ok. The angle. That line from his outstretched hand up to his head is nice, along with his clothing--so solid, I don't know of any other way to describe it XD. That and that stark contrast between his face, ears and hair.

*is very detail oriented and certain things just stand out XD*

Yay, you coloured it! *happily dancing*

May be it's weird, but I like background. Especially near the blue circle (or big dot?) on the middle of the right side. And I like the motion of the tail and all the pose.

Nice, nice

oh I see, yes, that makes much more sense. I have no objection to calling him a person, but I see no reason he can not be both. there is the matter of personal pride certainly, and I would not want to ofend him.
