I liked his shoes better in the first edit. they looked like sketchers (which i actually hate)... but anything's better than TENNIS shoes... So anyway, you like bald people, or what? Also, for coloring the stairs in Lascaux, I think it would look fantastic if you used a 5x5 (ish) brush on 150 opacity and 'blend' and simply went over it and over it with only slightly varing the color on your brush. Then go back over it again with a lighter color for the tops of the steps or top center of the steps. EDIT: wow... you really went all out.. did you actually select a different gradient and use a line to make each tiny segment of those steps??

mazi (edited Aug 9, 2003)

uh huh.. and its all your fault i was up at 4am with my face 2 inches from the screen trying to make that look good. hah it was fun times though i might do some more like that..

Turtlebuster (edited Aug 9, 2003)

well mazi, you know that's not what i meant about the gradients... i think you know, but i meant that you could make use of the blend tool to get a nice variety of shades on the stairs wihout actually using more than a few colors on the brush itself. i like the pants a lot, by the way.

Awesome colouring and lineart! You draw very beautiful and still improve every time. Bravo Mazi! >:D

so this is an idea i robbed from a dream i had.. theres a long story to it but its more fun to interpret for yourself.

you sleep on kerosene dampened knives or something? as for my interpretation:
"A Zen Monk betrayed his teachings and sought pleasure through accu-puncture, only to find his hypocritisism a TEST"
i think that makes a certain religious sense...

mazi (edited Aug 8, 2003)

hahaha yes infact i do sleep on kerosene dampened knives.. say are you spying on me? lol

not quite but hey.. and if anyones interested id be up for explaining it but i dunno its no fun that way..

Turtlebuster (edited Aug 8, 2003)

Explain, plz... If i'm watching you sleep, i'd also like to get inside your head. If i didn't, what kind of depraved lunatic would i be? the guys in South Wing A would never let me live that down, and what would the easter bunny think?

mazi (edited Aug 9, 2003)

hah

in the dream for some reason everyone thought i was dead. and my limbs all got cut off and they were about to throw me in the incinerator but i came to and flipped out.. and for some reason they put needles through the joints to keep them together.. as y'know people in my dreams are medically advanced like this. and i had to go around and tell people i wasnt dead and it was pretty irrelevant after that really.. but in the dream i wasnt naked and pale and the needles werent as big but i thought it was an awesome idea for a picture.. and i only now realize there should be more blood.. and in fact i do like bald people since i used to spend way too much time on hair and not pay attention to other things

Marienkind (edited Aug 8, 2003)

Title says it all. I'm new here, and I think this applet is great. Still working on figuring out the most of it, mainly how to make smoother lines. Can someone help me with that? :/

click "abti-alias" checkbox.. it's on the bottom right below the other tools.. and above some othe ones... it's a nice picture, and i love her get up. very sexy. nice colors as well.

raenboe (edited Aug 7, 2003)

This is really good! The face proportions are kinda floppy, and you should try to clean up some of the white spots around the lineart. I love the shading on the wings, though! Very nice!

mazi (edited Aug 8, 2003)

i do kind of a sketchy thing with a size 1 line so its thicker than size one and clean it up with the eraser tool after. and keep going over all the lines and fixing them..

good job though. say is her bra pasted to her chest? lol
