edit: just a sig. Thought I should start adding that to my pics

obsession

Aunvi (Aug 9, 2003)

Yeah um....I have this obsession with dragons so I made onde up. And I'm not done yet I need to do bg oh and yake about an hour off of that timer cause I was goofin off for a while.

edit> I only did a little bit more editing becauser the black stuff was bugging me, and I'm getting in trouble for being on the computer too long, or is it late...anyway that's all I could do for now.
edit>I only did a little and I need to draw the bg but lescaux won't let me draw on the second pic. I will try again.
edit>hehehe I also have a storm obsession, and I wonder if anyone thinks I should change the green lightning to purple. Anyone think so? or do you people like the green?

and try thinking of the dragon's roar, it is fun.

yep i did the same thing.. but as marcello, oh wise one showed me, you can do lineart then switch it to multiply (i think) and then put the color in under.. and your safe.

once you have lascaux, you never go back..

Turtlebuster (edited Aug 9, 2003)

I go back all the time, mazi. I like lascaux for it's unusual texture abilities, but Paintbbs is still my favorite when it comes to soft shading. Layers are easy, btw. Just use lots of them (in Lascaux you can even change the layer order by dragging a specific layer above or below another one) and when you start to get used to them, use less.

marcello (edited Aug 9, 2003)

you can change layer order in oekakibbs as well. In paintbbs, there's not much reason, heh. You can move stuff from one layer to the other, but not switch both at the same time.
turtlebuster: I'm assuming you're fully familiar with the difference between opacity and flow in lascaux? flow acts like paintbbs' (A)lpha, and opacity acts like photoshop's opacity. Actually, they added flow in photoshop 7, so it acts like that too, I suppose. :-)

Anyway, the only reason paintbbs may be different is there's a glitch in the color mixing code which causes the 'water color' tool to create some strange, almost dodge/burn style blending effects.

This is fixed in Shi-Painter, the new paintbbs, which is already coded into 2draw2 (and is very neat, I might add).
In fact, as far as basic brush tools, shi-painter is probably superior to lascaux, at the moment anyway. For example, its pen tool (equivalent of lascaux's anti-alias) works great even with really slow (mouse moving) and small detail lines. Something I have yet to figure out for lascaux, but will, eventually, hopefully... (please help!)

2draw2 will save layers on all boards, not just select. The only reason they're not supported now is because they take up space that's not recorded for the total image size.

Hahah, she is very cute. All those rough scales might be a downer (you know) though.

*Imagines alienated's pictures* Hmmmm *joins in with the shifty eyes*

Naked would be alot nicer :D
I see him with dark blond or light brown hair.

Yuki-Kage (edited Aug 10, 2003)

I imagine him with brown hair too, but whatever color you make his hair, he's still way sexier than any guy I've ever seen...Well with the exception of Johnny Depp and Heath Ledger... *drools*

Knockoff (edited Aug 11, 2003)

Woow Thats really really great.! Great shading.!

nyao (edited Aug 11, 2003)

Hey, dont get discouraged by others. You are an excellent artist and if what you like to draw dissapoints others than thats thier problem. At least they take notice. ;) Your best bet is to spam(um..not really) this site with furries and shove it in thier faces. If Dali listened to his parents we wouldnt have his work to admire. I know from reading this site that there are more people into your work than not. :)
