hi, I can't see it 'cause my 'puter's dumb sometimes, but I can see the thumbnail, and I like it.

I like messing with buttons too, it's how I learned to use photoshop, though it'd be nice if you could pretend there was a reason for this. My art teachers tell us stuff like if we get asked if we meant to do something in the picture, like make someone's head big, then the answer is always Yes I did mean that. Anyways, it is a pretty cool glowing effect you got.

She stares into the water...seeing only a distorted image of herself.

I like the concept here of the distorted reflection, which can be poetic in a way, but I think without the desciption it's a little hard to see that as being water since the color of the girl is so different from the water. If she were tinted the more same color as the water then it'd be clearer.

A sword with a fire backround. It didn't turn out as well as I hoped unfortunately =/

You might not like it so much and there's a few parts I think you could have done a little different but I still think you did pretty well. The yellows near the bottom really do seem to glow with intensity, and the sword itself is nicely made too. If you were to do it again though I'd suggest either a vertical format that's at least twice as tall as in is wide and have the sword standing straight up and down, or have the picture area be the same as this but make it even longer/wider and have the sword be at a flat horizontal. Those are just a couple ways of making it I'm imagining that I think would look nice.

The composition is very nice. I like how you've balanced the objects here and how soft your colors are.

The blurring of the outlines on certain parts bugs me though ><

I was just about to go to bed, and then suddenly i got this pic in my head.. So i hurried to 2draw and drawed it..
Made without use of any kind reference.

Purposely didn't use antialiasing etc - wanted it to be completely black/white...

now i REALLY need to go to bed.

This image has a very strong impact. I think it was a good choice to not use antialiasing since you would have lost a lot of the impact if you had.

This is cool, there was some really old tv show... was on when I was a kid that had something like this in the beginning. Was it... The Untouchables? somebody older than me that was actually WATCHING it will have to say... lol. Neat picture, anyway. Sometimes the only company I want is my shadow.

Why's she blushing so much? Someone grabbing her ass or something?
Anna (Feb 24, 2005)
yeah.. the anime girls get that scratchy blush stuff when they're doing something naughty! O_o
Shanghai (edited Feb 24, 2005)
I think you did well at having her head shape/size being in proportion to her body, since most anime or anime-influenced artists tend to draw heads way too big.
Yu-chan (Feb 24, 2005)
She's blushing because she's shy and there are so many people here. And because I thought her face just needed something extra. And anime don't ALWAYS blush when it's something naughty. They could just be embarrassed. Thank you redpanda, I try to be proportionate. :D

So we could walk down to the stream
And we would throw all our leaves in
Seeing our dragons when we look up)

I think so far you have a nice use of a wide color range. Your use of all three primary colors seems to make this feel very alive and active.

It's goin' great, but... If he/she's goin' to be blooded-out, then why they're so happy? And I'm too a slow worker o (=3) let's dance then!!

Broken_Chaos (Feb 24, 2005)
*Dances with Cacau* Well theres one reason why they would be happy and one of them would have some blood on them but i will keep that for if i do it XP

What are your inspirations for your art?
Shanghai (Feb 24, 2005)
What is it that inspires or motivates you to make art? Do you want to be like a certain artist you've seen or are you trying to express something you feel or enjoy? Personally I can't remember far back enough to a time when I wasn't making art. I've always just enjoyed making it and coming up with fantasy places and people I could make "real" enough to be seen by other people at least. Probably why I've never been as interested in drawing from life as from my imagination.

delicious.

*and when I say "simplicity" I mean in a good way. Having simple elegance. I tend to forget some people don't like that term but that's what I was taught to say. >_>

-edit- and yellow through the handle would be very yummy. *continues eating my taco bell burrito*
Shanghai (Feb 24, 2005)
Although the yellow has a slight tilt, I think it works well because it gives continuation to the diagonals in the image.

zack this is great! you've got such a gift for textures!
