SaiyanPrincessX Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 Heh, I couldn't resist not making one. So heres mine, slightly diffrent though and un-colored.
treton_noir Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 thats really good. i like it a lot. it would look great colored.

Well done ^_^, i like him *wishes he had one* *sigh*.[SIZE=3]::EDIT::[/SIZE] Well, i was bored and decided to take my hand ar CGing, this is my first CG, so dont be too harsh ^_^...

GinnyLyn Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 OOOoooOOOoo! Heh, not too shabby at all for a first CG. You've got a good eye for colors that work together. My only whine is the coloring outside the lines syndrome. But fixing that just comes with lots of practice. Maybe darken the outline a little. Do you work with PhotoShop?
Shinobi Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 Yes i do Ginny, i just used the paint tool, and gradient....and my eyes, Heh. Yeah, i was getting tired and had to go out, and i was gonna do some touch ups, so ya...Do you use Photoshop, because i know you are GREAT at CGing, much like many other on OB.
GinnyLyn Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 All I really want to say is that the Magic Wand is PERFECT in eliminating "coloring outside the lines" (cotl) syndrome. Unless that is the look one wants. :bluesweat Generally, what I like to do is take my scanned b/w outline drawing, then press Ctrl+L. That'll bring up the Levels window. Adjust as needed to make your lines uniformly as dark as you want. Then use the color selector (eyedropped the lines' color), and under the Select menu, pick "Select Color Range". Another window brings you a view of what gets selected. I like to select that and copy the lines to a new file. From here, you can select certain areas of the image with the Magic Wand. While still selected, I tend to go to Select-->Modify-->Expand, with a pixel level of 1. This will make your selection areas just large enough to "fit" under your outlines, and eliminate any white aliasing you may get. Keep the area selected! Not only can you fill in with Paint Bucket here, you can also paint in your shadows, and again, no cotl syndrome. My secrets...revealed. Sigh. Heh. I'm done. *hops down and goes to make art*

(I have it upstairs, i'm just lazy i guess o_O) SPX, thats awesome. You should do a bunch of them for OB members ;)[/COLOR]
Sara Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 [size=1]"lilpicobyte style"? I'm flattered. *isn't sure if she should be or not, but is, just the same* I love it. I really do. What's 'is name? [Aren't they fun?] *has been inspired to go draw the rest of her Maccies* This could turn into quite the vicious cycle. o0[/size]
GinnyLyn Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 *blinks slowly* You know, I was waiting for Sara to see this thread. And now... *blinks again, quite slowly* A new trend. *blinks eeeeever so slowly* ...but I'm a WinPCer! :rolleyes:
SaiyanPrincessX Posted February 26, 2003 Author Posted February 26, 2003 [I][QUOTE]SPX, thats awesome. You should do a bunch of them for OB members[/QUOTE][/I] Oooo.. Yes that would be fun!^^ Thanks everyone, I didn't know so many people would reply.:excited: [I] [QUOTE][Aren't they fun?][/QUOTE] [/I] Yes! Its so fun drawin the simple lil dude. Nice job on that first cg Shinobs.;)
Sere Tuscumbia Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 Ish soooo cute, SPX! ^_^ He looks a little grungy, but he's my style of drawing! ^_^ *huggles the little dude* I wanna hug him and keep him forever in my closet! (ok, inside joke there.) However, is the little picobyte dudes just limited to [I]dudes[/I]? Could you have a dudette? 'Cause I think that would just be so cute! ^_^ --Sere
SaiyanPrincessX Posted February 26, 2003 Author Posted February 26, 2003 Ah yes.. Another good idea! ^_^ *begins drawing lil dudes n' dudettes*
