Aaaaah, Arkthon !!! He's now more detailled and looks strongest !

So, you've used Β a lot of softwares.

No, I copy the drawing on paper. then I draw the lineart with a fineliner on the paper. After scanning I use Illustrator to convert the traditional lineart to digital paths. That's why they're so clean.

Ah, I see.

I sometimes to that on Photoshop, but with some kind of lines, it needs a lot of times, but the result is clean too. ^^

Hahahaha, wahrscheinlich XD
Es freut mich, dass es dir gefΓ€llt. Diesen Colouring style werde ich jetzt immer benutzen (dauert nur 3 Mal lΓ€nger als mein alter DX).

Woooow, this looks so nice! All of your lines are so crisp and clean. I don't think I've seen a shading style like that before, it looks like a mix between cell, gradient and 'airbrush'. Very spiffy.

Blachalkar In reply to Rhavencroft [2014-02-11 12:05:00 +0000 UTC]

Well I'm doing my lineart traditional with fineliners on paper. But use Illustrator to convert them into clear paths
Thank you very much! ^^ I came up with this method and was so happy that it looked fine!

Have enough wine and you get one good night, then a nasty morning after XD unless your use to it then it'll be a good night XD


I have to say the detail on the wound on his leg looks very well made as with the lighting and the shadow ^^

Blachalkar In reply to chaosgods [2014-02-11 12:01:58 +0000 UTC]

I think Arkthon is used to it (in medieval times it was normal to drink alcohol everyday) XD

Thank you very much, dude!
I'm trying to draw more and more details to make it more real.

I'm guessing that's why they are all so angry before battle, all that rage over the hang over XD

Anytime ^^
