Hopefully it'll turn out decent. It's a picture of Between and her mother before she gained her strange appendage. (As always, harsh critique would rock. I'll take anything as long as it's not just wailing on my art. I'm not angry if it's got even the slightest bit of info on what to change but what really gets me is "It sucks" -_- because I'm a new artist and I know it sucks, that's why I want you amazing artists out there to tell me what I could do to..unsuck =3! Because lord knows I envy all of you here.)

actually, sweetcell, i think the neck is fine, the head just seems a bit far over...

oh!
-shoulder blades should probably be a bit higher up...
-hind legs...i mean the shin bones should be shorter
-the baby's head is too big.
the fore legs make the mom look a bit like a mongoose...o.o *tilts head*

Sorry I've been so dead lately Sweetcell. I've been really busy lately, but hopefully I'll be compensating for my lack of art with a ton of new, better art.

Thank you both for the awesome critique ^^! I'll make sure to keep it in mind for next time. And actually now that I look back at it, the neck does remind me of a mashmallow xD oh well, better luck next time. The legs on the front doo look mongooseish...not a word but whatever. Between's (the baby's) head was probably my least favorite thing in the picture so that's something I'll fix next time. Anyways, I hope make good use of the wonderful critique you gave me! Thank once again! -hugs pandabarrie and Sweetcell-

Jim Morrison, of course :) I just love to hear to "The Doors"... Why do you need drugs if you have them? (The same goes for Pink Floyd)

The man was sex in leather pants. And lightyears ahead of his time in terms of rock. Some of their songs are still weird to listen to. Your right, you put on a Doors album you don't need anything else, because he did it for you. X)

why are you yelling at peanuts leave them be

CommaQueen (Jun 20, 2006)

Layer 0 is the bottom layer--it's where you should make your basic sketching and where you later can do the background/color the figures. Layer 1 is the top layer--don't use this layer until you're ready to make your final lineart, because you can't erase--if you use the tools to white stuff out it'll block it on the bottom. Think about them as layers of plastic that, when you paint on them, are no longer translucent. Hope that helps. :3

peanuts707 (Jun 20, 2006)
drawn in 8 min

im done i think she dont got a body lol XD

Sweetcell (Jun 20, 2006)

CommaQueen I have to disagree. Use the main layer, the one you start out with, as your background, the next layer sketch your design, or the third it doesn't matter, but make sure your sketch is clear for you to get the shape to ink (line.) Next layer do the lineart by using the airbrush at med/low opacity and flow and make the lines thicker than you would, that way you can come back with the eraser on low to med/low opacity and shave the thickness down to what you want, not only do you get nice even lines this way but they're clean and very smooth. Make sure anti-alias is on. Then use another layer to color it in. Don't worry about going over the lines because you can erase the color that bled through (you also save your lineart.) You can get rid of your sketch layer now, unless your going to do a complicated background then you can use it as part of the background. I hope that makes sense. I always describe layers as tracing paper. You put tracing paper over an image you can trace that image and color it without ruining the original picture.

Hope that helps peanut. You'll find the layers on the left of the screen. Place you mouse over the icons and read what they are. The paper on the far left is the add layer tool.

Almost has an Aeon Fluxish look. A dynamic face :)

Sweetcell (Jun 20, 2006)

Very futeristic, I love it. I'd clean up the lines but that's just me.

Have you attempted any guys? I know how difficult drawing the male figure is opposed to the female but I'd like to see your version.

Violette (Jun 20, 2006)

Hm. Good idea. Whoa. My keyboard's all screwed up.

Great looking drawing. It looks alive!

Sweetcell (Jun 20, 2006)

Oooo, very claylike, very dimensional. It looks like a nightmare someone would have about an alien abduction. Waking up in your bed not being able to move and this thing staring right in your face *shivers*
