I don't know what you call them but I love all your pictures, longway. This one's really nice.. I love her wavy hair and the night sky in the background.

Stephany v. 1

Gigge (Jun 30, 2004)

Experimenting with skin tones. Color scares me big time. I don't know what her name is. She just looked kind of like a Stephany in her reference picture. Then again she was kind of pretty in the reference picture.

Same girl..I posted about how freaky it was to see this picture (which, btw looks exactly like our friend!)

Felt like drawin' somethin' cartoony. The Little Mermaid was always one of my favorites while growin' up.

very good likeness, I knew who it was immediately. Where's Huggy (if I remember his name properly)?

laurael (Jul 1, 2004)

Thanks so much all of you for your comments.
D & D...Yeah, lol, 'Hutch' is the reason I was cussing at this one and why I said...'I'm trying and that this was not easy. I think I spent at least a good three hours on 'him' and he still isn't quite right. Some faces totally allude me...blah... :p
THUG...You thought the same thing I did when I saw this pic. I had been thinking of adding Huggy, but ended up scrapping that idea when 'Hutch' took so long to do... :)

Aubrey (Jul 2, 2004)

I like it alot.. looks like a picture out of a magazine :)

Knockoff (Jul 4, 2004)

Wow. I think this is great Laurael.
The colors and detail are very nice. Don't worry, you did a nice job. ;)

Oooh, this is very nice, Lori. I love how you're always experimenting and coming up with these creative things.

davincipoppalag (Jul 1, 2004)

That's what it looked like to me too Gigge. I like this Lori, did you do it with that sharpening tool thingy? (I can never make that do anything)

LovelyLori (Jul 1, 2004)

yeah, used the sharpening tool.... I never feel like it does much for me either... lol, but I like it's effect anyway.... I would love to do a meaningful pic one of these days soon... like, ya know, a REAL pic.... but can't get in the mood to do it! but yeah, emma.... experimenting is always fun :)

laurael (Jul 1, 2004)

This is much better than animation cell quality. The shading in animation ('cell shading') is usually limited to two or three distinct shades per color. I think the kind of shading here is called 'gradient,' and to produce an animation where every frame was shaded to this kind of gradient quality would be an utterly insane undertaking. The shading in Disney movies is better than most, but still not this quality.

As for Disney itself, I have no doubt ED could get a job there. But unless you're 'the best of the best', you'll end up doing little more than drawing repetitive frames of someone else's characters to smooth out the work of the lead animators, and might not even get your name in the credits. Additionally, while working for Disney, any artwork you produce, even at home with your own utensils, belongs to Disney. I would hate for ED to work where her art would go unappreciated.

EverDream (Jul 2, 2004)

Thank you for your support Zack. I've considered working for the Disney companies long ago, but the idea of sitting constantly and repeating drawings of something someone else came up with just didn't appeal to me. You don't even get to colour them you know? Any wayz I'm shooting for one of three things, either becoming a digital illustrator, a game character designer, or tatoo artist. :D

Aubrey (Jul 2, 2004)

I like the lighting and you did the shadows of it really well! The colors are great too :-D Another great picture by Everdream.

DOMO :O <3

some awesome texture you got going on thar

DinoFlorist (Jun 29, 2004)

That thing is funny. I like it! I didn't know that that frog was yours; I liked that too. You know whats funny, davinici, is that I know Mum from inklink, I just didn't know that he came here until he memoed me today. So, we are actually already somewhat familiar with each others drawings (although it is possible to do much better work here).
