Wicked. :) Incredibly cool.

Thank you Marcello for the information- I will do a couple more here- then look at intermediate. I want to be good enough so that I fit in with the other artists here. I had done the whole image without editing- it was my first attempt to edit it- but since I draw freehand does that affect the amount of work I can do on the images?

A number of things will affect the size of the file, the canvas size, the number of layers, number of colors, number of solid colors vs individual. On lascaux, all the layers are saved in a lossless format, so each layer adds to the size (you can merge layers to reduce size a bit)

Knockoff, it's art. It can have white skin. Obviously, your vision of art is very narrow.
There's worse shit on this site. S/he spent a half-hour, It looks decent.
I don't think the blur tool detracts in this piece.
The hair...yeah, I sort of agree with you on that one.
The eye actually looks pretty good.

You're bashing this one pretty hard. Are you in a bad mood?

Dir En Grey... Kyo's face is so white when he's not ripping it to shreds... Very scary... I prefer Malice Mizer actually... Mana's face is even MORE white!

BTW KO, there's no need to be so harsh. You know... You weren't all that great when you first started out either!

Eww.. Nice hair, it looks very thick and soft. *pets the hair* Yeah, the skin tones and everything else look really good too. :P

Hair is wonderfull!
I like the eyes too.
I'm not to sure about the nose though...
Great! :)

deep concentration
she seems to be in bathroom
doing ... you know what :]

O.O Animal abuser!!! *throws fork at Ky*

*scratches head* I don't think animals were abused, I think Santa was.

Ew, that paints bad pictures. Anyway, I think the bloody lump is Santa remains. (PS: I like the sleigh, ky.)

Why is there gray lineart mixed with the black?

With Lascaux, making a layer for coloring is simple. You press the little button that looks like a white square on the layer menu to your left. And then, to make the layer transparent, Turn that specific layer's option to "Multiply". Then, when you color on that new layer, the coloring will go through the lineart, so that you don't have to work around it. Clear?

um, just a side note, you don't need to do the whole multiply stuff to make a layer transparent, it's already transparent by default. Provided you use the eraser tool and not a white brush to erase, it'll be transparent (even the lowest layer is transparent).

Phwee!!!!!! Chocobo!!!!!!!! *cheers*

I dont really know what a Chocobo is, but its still pretty cute.

SAWEET!!!! Love Chocobos.
The ONLY way to get about the world map in FFVII.

its good, but like he said you should have put this on the pracice board. Also it wouldnt hurt to give him some pants.

I think it's fine for intermediate.
critique: The head looks big for his body, and the leg look very unnatural. But I like the arm very much so.

oh, well aren't you all smart little fuckers? haha. He *still* has nothing to splatter on though.

this is awesome

Great idea ^.^
