Description
If you actually find this tutorial useful, please support it with at least a fav or let me know of anything you've created by following its steps. I just want to see if my time was worthwhile for it, because the fate of further tutorials, such as on fabric, armour, skin, hair, etc, hinges on this one's interest.Anyhoo, to mark my 5th anniversary here at DA (... yay. XD) and instead of drawing my usual crap, I present you my first ever tutorial! Exciting, right?? lol, yeah… I jest, but seriously, at least it gives me an excuse to try out a font I retrieved from a very cool fan site of Bullfrog’s Syndicate series: [link]
Now if only I knew how to use flash…

I find I wouldn't be without some of this software's little gimmicks now. They help achieve so much with my style.

Nice tut, specific but not 28 page long report explicit. And of course the nice little GUI is pretty neat as well.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, there's such a thing as a 28 page long tutorial around these parts?

Sometimes it feels like that, especially if it's a very simple process your trying to accomplish.

As for jumping to Ludicrous Speed... nah. This baby's got other jumping capabilities that don't make my brains go into my feet.

Well, you can never have enough blades. Having at least one in an art is like having breakfast in some countries... maybe.
