I've noticed that sometimes, a conversation gets started up using comments, and people continue to talk without commenting on the picture. People, if you want to talk, use the memo system. It can work faster than you think. And also, there's the chat room. It just kinda annoys me when someone puts a comment on the picture, but the comment is about the conversation, not the picture. If you're going to carry on like that, at least say something about the picture in addition to...

Another thingy in Lascaux

Turtlebuster (edited Jun 1, 2003)

I noticed that when using any brush size larger than 1x1 pixel and passing the brush over a section of line (without actually drawing) the brush image actually distorts the line you pass it over and it remains that way until you pass it over again, in which case it doesn't revert but simply is distorts the line again. The distortions are actually very miniscule and they really only flop around a few pixels here and there, but if you are doing something very detailed, you could get aggitated when...

I noticed i actually have matrix fonts on my pc

I haven't a clue what minitsaru is talking about, I don't see any recognizable words at all... hell the only characters that are recognizably in a sequence are in the bottom left, and only a couple of them.

c++? you are smart. it took me months to figure out rm2k and that is the most simplified program in existence (and one of the weakest).
what kind of game are you planning, sererena?

Minitsaru (edited Jun 3, 2003)

Smart? hardly... as i said i have a lot of free time... i used to use rm2k but i was unnable to do some of the things i REALLY wanted to happen..... so i just started reading a whole lot of C++ tutorials. after all both of my legs got fcked up so, u kno a LOT of free time...

The plants and the Frodo.

aphrodites_curse (Jun 1, 2003)

For lack of a better title. ^^ This picture actually has quite a long story behind it. It was originally going to be one of my characters, Suki. But then I made her hair too curly so I turned it into Frodo. So my sister walks into the room and we spend about twenty minutes trying to color it. We got neon pants. Buuuut I like 'em. And the sky is just weird. But I like that too. Thanks to my sister for instructing me on the coloring of Frodo. ^__^

very cute!!!! hahhahahaa
nice idea xodiak

Turtlebuster (edited Aug 6, 2003)

how did you do the coloring on his shirt? it's very neat, but the only way i can imagine doing it would take hours... it's a wonderful picture, and i love your style. you should really draw more often if you can find the time... you add a lot of variety in the boards.

Anyone home?

unknowingly there was a crazed ex-con following turtlebuster and was just waiting for the unnexpecting protagonist (did i spell that right?) to fall out of earshot from the villagers... for the ex-con was honing in for the kill!!!! Duh-Nah!! =P lol j/k
nice pic but it seems a bit empty.... and ....... empty >.< =P

Turtlebuster (edited Jun 1, 2003)

yes... very empty indeed. not only that, it looks like the house is sitting on top of a table. i don't really know how to texture dirt very well :(

Minitsaru (edited Jun 1, 2003)

thats ok, neither do i =P but if you continue working on it you will probably get much better =D now that you mention it it does look like a table. u kno this could make a cool warhammer map =P well.... of it had more scenery that is >.<

I'm in love with my Dreamcast. I've had it since it came out, and have had no problems with it. But as of late, the sound has been getting worse. Don't die, my wonderful Sega machine!!

Doodlibop (edited Jun 3, 2003)

they probably manufactured those DCs cheapley (foreseeing the inevitable doom in gaming industry). I still got my Sega Genisis and it still works. sorta.
Oh, by the way, nice pic. hehe, kitty is cute ;)

Carlucci (edited Jun 3, 2003)

cool drawing

nightmare_gypsy (edited Jun 3, 2003)

YES! I now have account! Now I can actually comment on Fury's pictures! I know him from school so I can tell you he draws a ton of stuff, and he has an uber-awesome sketchbook. On a picture note, i must say that it certainly is the same sort of reaction I had when I heard that the Dreamcast was going down for the count. That was a very sad day for all Sega fans worldwide.

P.S. If you check out fury's NERO pic from a while back, I'm the guy in the top right with the ponytail, and I was supposed to be his master. Go my kitty servant! Slay the beasties!

Turtlebuster (May 31, 2003)

XD thanks to some good tips from some good people, i've worked on this and made it a little more to my likeing.
1) cleaned up some 'too soft areas' so they look like rocks instead of marshmellows
2) made a brand new tree that doesn't quite look real, but i like much better.
3) worked a little on the sky for shading
i couldn't seem to lighten the shading in the back anymore than this, so i will have to make sure i do that from the start from now on.
refresh to see changes ^^

Turtlebuster (edited May 31, 2003)

i actually did start with lineart. i then made some colored layers and deleted the layer with the line art, so as to make the picture look realistic. after all, not everything has a black outline. thx furyofroy, although i was hoping more for info on doing bark/leaves (so tough for me, considering you don't actually paint every individual leaf). XD

Kazukie (edited Jun 1, 2003)

The white stuff in the water doesn't really go with it... And uhh using the blur tool is a cheap way of doing it but.. IDK. The tree's roots look like they need to be elongated or whatever because the one kind of bluntly goes into the rock then stops... Uhh and the clouds just look like streaks. =P Sorry I still think this looks cool if you don't study it a whole lot! ^^;;;

marcello (edited Jun 1, 2003)

Ok, so I just watched your animation to get a better idea how you went about doing this. Besides the fact I think you completely overuse the smudge tool, you used it well. I personally think smudge works best with liquid substances (water, fire, clouds, etc). And in this case I'll have to disagree with kazukie, I think the water looks fine.
One general problem with this piece is while you have good local shading, you need to focus on the overall shading of the piece, from end to end. In order to give your piece more perspective, you should consider the gradual lighting from back to front, in addition to local shading.
In the case of the tree, I think you have the general idea down, and the leaves don't look terrible. Perhaps more concentration on the structure of the tree. For example, how big do you imagine the entire tree? What type of tree are you trying to draw? The shape of the base and branches will be governed by the answers to these questions.
For shading the tree, for one, I would not use smudge on the bark, it totally ruined the beginning of what could have been good shading in your animation. Again, of course, it depends on the type of tree, birch for example has quite different bark than most trees. But for a stereotypical tree (lol), I would use a combination of diffused brush, vertical strokes of good contrast, and then an overall shading from edge to edge over that.
For leaves, well, what you have isn't terrible, perhaps a little more differentiation...
Anyway, it's not really a bad piece, and the animation didn't corrupt so you could edit it further. :-)

Turtlebuster (edited Jun 1, 2003)

ooh! thanks guys :) i will try to edit this (i usually don't even bother trying since it screws up 90% of the time). i might just redo the tree completely, and definitely fix up the shading. when i was shading, i tried to darken the front and lighten the back more, but that lost somewhere along the way :(
