Description a color doodle (I was talking by the phone with my ex-boss )... well, I done this to check some colors in chara 4 a project...now is my msn Avatar
just doing a test.

I gonna explain some stuff about color. Some people ask me in notes about how to do textures and gain definition on their ilutrations. I usually work in a big size canvas, this pic was done to be "viewed" in arround 150 pixels, so you can see how "brushed" looks in the original size, and how better look in a small size.

is a trick you can use when you paint in the same way, some odd strokes in distance could look like a texture . Always have in mind in how big was be printed, in that way you can work in a bigger canvas and latter, you shrink it to the "real" size... did you get it?

In the other hand, you can economize strokes, I only paint the "light area" , the dark area is... only dark


PSCS/20 minutes.

exacto, muchas veces uno se deja llevar y no sabe cuando acabar la imagen, idealmente esta debe ser funcional al formato, es algo que uno va aprendiendo con el tiempo cuando debe sacar maximo provecho en jornadas muy cortas

Awesome pic. Reminds me of a few different things, like Cecil from FFIV when he's a dark knight, or the Angelos from DMC4.

Awesome job, I love the tones of the metallic color. A lot of people usually use blue in their metal tones but I notice that the best color is a mix of blue and even some green for the darker tones.

I get what you mean by starting the picture out large and then resizing it later so the brush strokes look like a texture. I'm going to have to try that.

What I want to know is how to make it look like eyes are glowing. And how you did the wings on the Mermaid in your "The Mermaid Song" art. T_T Man I wish I was that good. (Backgrounds are my worst and I can't seem to get them figured out just right for me.)

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

GENZOMAN In reply to JiyuKodai [2009-04-21 00:49:54 +0000 UTC]

the glowing eye is easy, I done a red radial in another layer, then screen mode.

the wings is only a selection, then a some gradient and the layer in arround 60% opacity
