Description OH GOD WHAT IS THIS MONSTROSITY?

I was looking at my prior emote ref sheets. I no longer like them. So I made a new one. It has less crappy handwriting, I swear.

Also, yes, that is Generic Gradient shading you see. Haven't used that in like two years. I did it out of laziness.

See my Animation Ref Sheet:

I tried to make an emote but I failed, I do have it made and I love it even though it's on ms paint but I don't know how to make it chat friendly, could you help you don't have to if you don't want to but here's a link[link]

First of all, MSPaint can save files out as GIFs, so I don't know why you would save it out as a JPG. Secondly, it needs transparency, but do that, you'll need a proper paint program such as Paint.NET or GIMP, both are free. Once in the program of your choice, you need to use the erasor to get rid of the background. Then save the result out as either a PNG or GIF, your choice.

I used this tutorial to know some basics even though I changed the shading to suit my own style I made this: [link]

Not too bad for your first try! I think your shading could use a little more depth. Try adding in some shadows and highlights.

SugarKoala In reply to JRCnrd [2011-07-12 20:03:54 +0000 UTC]

AHA! Shadows under the emote right? That wouldn't defiantly look better.

and within the emote itself, like around your nose

JRCnrd In reply to SugarKoala [2011-07-12 20:14:06 +0000 UTC]

You should also give the nose a highlight, so it seems to shine. Doesn't need to be more then a pixel or two.

JRCnrd In reply to Wezza-T [2011-06-01 18:01:42 +0000 UTC]

not too shabby. Although it is a little too red for my tastests. You may want try shading, and make the outline and face stand out a ilttle more.

Wezza-T In reply to JRCnrd [2011-06-01 18:06:19 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for your feedback!
I tried to make the face stand out a little more, but then it looked too "in your face" so I dimmed them down a little, but I'll just keep on experimenting for now. =]

This is really helpful thanks

I've just recently started trying to make some emoticons and my first one came out huge because I didn't pay attention to the size of the ones on here already xD

This will be really good for a re-starting point x3

I DON'T WANT TO SHUT UP. And I made tons of emotes in the last couple days. Too many. And don't tell me what to do.

Also, you used a gradient.
