[Magical_RuNE_Kni...]

Oooh, I want to see the comic! : D I can't wait... but er, what's it going to be about? .. XD

And also, yeah! Ikr, isn't Strawberry's pixel art fantastic? ^^ Imagine if you tried doing a pixel comic, it'd be so cooool : D

[Strawberry]

It's not very good and it needs a lot of reformatting, but here's my idea...

Aether, a mysterious substance in the air, is a primal source of the universe – and only when it is condensed, will one be able to see it. The stars in the sky are such an example, as they are purely made of Aether.

Every so often, a shooting star is spotted in the night sky, as it quickly lands onto the surface of the planet. Most of the time, a ball of Aether will be in its place, but rarely, a seemingly mortal-like child will be there - a being made of Aether and flesh...

Floating above the earth, is a large, swirly black mass. From it, monsters called Voidspawn are created, causing terror.

~The main character, Corinne (the girl I've drawn/pixeld) is a star and she must make a great decision near the end of the story...
~I'm not sure how mortals use Aether to use magic, yet.
~The world has no name yet
~I need help ._.

[Shaddow]

~I need help ._.

d'awwww so cute! This sounds like a good start, but shall we create another thread for this, so we don't spam up your art topic? I'll create one right now!

[Strawberry]

Okies, good idea!

I look forward to the thread! ^__^

[Strawberry]

A colored Corinne!

Took me awhile, but it was fun - even if it sucks. ;X

[Shaddow]

It looks so good, even better all big like that!

[Tsureiyu]

and niice strawberry (no nickname this time xD).. the anatomy is good too ;D

(edit) buut just one thing, idk if it's just a difference in our styles but the waist looks a bit odd, since the torso's turned at that angle o: but i think its okay hahah

You making a pretty nice art, if you ask me

But i assume you have problem with coloring? Maybe i can help you with it?

- There is very easy way to do so. I have discovered this way trough years of trial and error. What you might want to do is to download Adobe Flash (You can download Adobe Flash Portable absolutely legally free)
- Import your sketch on default layer.
- Create another layer above your sketch's
- Block layer with your sketch (press padlock button)
- Use "line" tool to trace your sketch's contours. You can bend your line any way you want with "selection" tool. Also you can freely chose size of your line. If you need to change line's color, size ect. use "Ink Bottle" tool
- After finishing making contour, fill it with color. Flash's filling is MUCH MORE CONVINIENT than photoshop's
- Export image and finish it in photoshop or whatever

If you need shadows:
- Create a layer above layer with contour and filling
- Chose line tool again, set some contrast color (i using bright red or acid green) and make contours on shadows.
- Re-select that layer so all contours you made shall be highlighted. Copy it.
- Past it in layer with main pocture (NOT sketch)
- Select last layer again and press "delete"
- Fill shadows
- To delete shadow's contours, just click on 'em twice and press "delete" button

Voila



Try it. It is much easier, funnier and faster than your coloring. I am turning my sketches in pics for maximim of 2 hours

And keep drawing! You're good at it!


Sincirely yours

Long time no see!

[Magical_RuNE_Kni...]

Wow, she looks fantastic! >o</ >o</ \>o</ Her body is great.

I really like how her hair turned out, how her hands look, and the smoothness + weight of her body frame.

It's really nice to look at! Strawberry, you've indeed been practising.
