Description

EDIT: Holy! WOW GUYS! A 2ND DD?! I am so happy I got one that included a piece of art and not a stock photo! I love when people use my stock but it's not my passion. Thank you so much `CreativeJenn and `innocencedied2nite !

And I will say I know there is a fault with the 2 weapons Ammy has (the one on her back and in her mouth) since you can only see one weapon at a time while playing the game (yes, I know you can combine weapons). It had been a while since I played the actual game when I drew it. Went right to playing and defeated it a 3rd or 4th time.



Edit 2: 12/07/12- Took out the watermark and cut the black boarders.

-----

My very first Okami fanart!

I really loved the game and I wish they would re-create it for the PS3! The Blade of Kusanagi is my favorite sword design in the game which is why I used it. :3

How to make your brush in Photoshop look "wet"
I don't like the watercolor preset brushes. so I do this
1. Choose one of the default brushes (preferably "Hard Round")
2. Click on the icon which looks like a folder with a silhouette of a can of brushes. (should be next to the brush size scroll box)
3. Click "Wet Edges"
4. (Choose your size) Then choose your spacing and hardness. I do: Spacing-25% and Hardness-15%
5. Experiment and play around. I duplicated the lineart layer to make the strokes bold so I didn't have to go over them to keep the strokes clean.

P.S. I NEVER EVER use black lineart! All my lineart are usually red or purple. I do this for layer adjustment reasons

It's such a delight to see how your style changes and grow. This is a gorgeous piece of work. The muted tones really compliment the design, leaving the over all effect to be rather stunning. Lovely work, hun.

Oh, Amanda, I think this is one of your best pieces yet! If not THE best.

I just love the dramatic shading and stance. Plus, the Okami style works so well with your own style of drawing and colouring.

Ha ha, I prefer the glaive in the PS2 version... but rosaries all the way for the Wii version. It's just too much fun to wave the remote around like a psycho when using them.

FFF! You played both PS2 and Wii version? I am in the middle of the Wii version and I have a hard time attacking! I never used the wii so it is quite an experience!

To be honest, the image idea is actually taken from an old image I did in 2008. It's embarrassing--> [link] Oh goodness. *dies from embarrassment*

And what do you mean so some more? More of this style or Okami fan art?

I used the rosary beads the glaves and such always seemed to lag to much for me, with the beads I could hand out some intense combos like nobodies business. I did use a glave as a secondary weapon though.

amandas-sketches In reply to Jayoen [2012-01-10 04:44:34 +0000 UTC]

I did like the beads but I felt like they took too long when you hit the characters. Yeah, you got more hits with one blow but I just liked the movements Ammy did with the swords. They were always fun!
