Description I've seen a few other artists upload lineart for others to colour, and I thought it was a nice idea.

So, if anyone wants to practice their colouring techniques, but can't be bothered drawing something up, feel free to use this one. But let me know when it's done okay? I wanna see it. :3

However, there are a few rules:

1. No altering the lineart. I don't care if you think a bit needs fixing - you're not changing it.

2. No erasing my signature.

3. No selling completed works or claiming them as your own or Jiko will chew your face off.

4. This can only be used on dA - You can submit the finished version to your gallery as long as you state that the lineart is mine, and link back to my page. No uploading to any other websites like Elfwood, or your Livejournal.

This Lineart is still copywrite to me (Jigokuko) - I'm merely letting you use it for practice. You can also crop the background a little, as long as it doesn't interfere with the lineart.

Sorry if I sound paranoid, but art theft is a very real and widespread problem.

It took a while to find the person that drew this and I love your work! I was looking for references for the Kirin creature on pinterest and found your drawing, I was wanting to ask you if I could use pieces of your drawing for one I'm doing?

I will give you full credit if I do use pieces of it for the scene I'm drawing but I will not try to implement it without your approval first and foremost.

Message me if you approve or decline. I will accept your choice and do something else if you say I cannot use it <3

Pure curiosity: considering people put pictures that are copyrighted, such as Naruto, Sailor Moon, The Little Mermaid, etc. to things like Photobucket, LiveJo0urnal, etc...

1. Why do you care if they do?
2. What could you do if they did?

I swear to god, I'm not like...planning on doing it, or trying to start a fight--I'm just honestly curious.

Heh, I kinda went overboard with the scales.
I should really go back and improve that picture - the lines are terribly fuzzy. :S

It looks great! I love the hair. I might give it a go, but it'll be my first try at coloring. Ever. O_O Any good tips? Or tutorials? I'm gonna need a lot of help.

Jigokuko In reply to chicken-bob [2007-04-13 01:00:11 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, give it a shot n_n

Tips? Hmm, only that if you use photoshop, layers and the lasso tool are invaluable Maybe I should do a colouring tute sometime.

Don't forget, you can always print it out an colour it that way if it's easier.

hey I might try to colour this on photoshop if I get a chance to a little later in the day... You really rock at lineart aye... it's really originally designed too... I like how you've taken something like a unicorn and given it a womanly form!! Go you!

Will link back to your work when I'm done

Wow the line art is soo clean and detailed. how long did it take you?
I wanna give it a shot a colouring since I haven't coloured much at all.

Jigokuko In reply to samuraisushi [2007-01-22 03:11:53 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, I don't think it took that long, an hour tops? I actually had a thicker line running around the whole image, but I didn't like it that much so I spent a couple of hours erasing that in Photoshop. >__>

You should totally colour it! n__n

samuraisushi In reply to Jigokuko [2007-01-23 10:35:47 +0000 UTC]

owah that would have been such a pain to earse =x.
Colour it I shall, aye capt'n.

oh btw how did you this line art?
Pencil -> Digital or straight to digital like with a tablet.
and since you used photoshop did you use the pen tool to do the lines?
just wondering~

Jigokuko In reply to samuraisushi [2007-01-24 00:46:56 +0000 UTC]

I did it by hand with pencil, then inked it, then scanned it
I'm not very good with drawing directly onto the pc, I think the sensitivity of my tablet is up too high, so my lines come out all wibbly :S

moonlitknight In reply to Jigokuko [2006-12-28 19:14:51 +0000 UTC]

I see her as light flesh tones and soft pin, or soft blues and white.

Jigokuko In reply to moonlitknight [2006-12-29 03:08:05 +0000 UTC]

But then I started to colour her like the kirin on the Kirin beer cans XD (black body, gold hair)

That's okay, just print it off and colour by hand if you prefer - I'm not fussy.
