"first time"?! Thats gotta be a lie...
This looks AMAZING!!!
As someone who draws almost always in pencil, I'm insanely jealous.

Well there are these..

But the first I used only a mechanical pencil... not different grades and I didn't smooth the lines.
And the second is bloody awful as I just made a mess with the different grades of pencil.
Thankyou!!!

Thankyou! I'm glad you like it!
As for stopping liking the turtles... it'll never happen! Heh.
I've been obsessed since I was thirteen and I'm almost 29 now, so that's.... 16 years of ninja turtles obssessing!
Have you thought any more about your Raph icon yet? I've got a week off work, so I have time to do it in!

OMG...I haven't been up here in so long...I sure hope you can still do that icon...
Let me see...how about a girl with wire-rim glasses and long red hair kissing him on the cheek? No? Yes? You could just do the heads and shoulders...
pleeeeaaaaaaaassssssssseeeeeee....

Not a problem. I'll do my best.. not sure how well it'd show up since the icons are so tiny.. but we shall see.
I'll put it up in my gallery when it's done.

kittyq In reply to ??? [2004-11-23 02:40:29 +0000 UTC]
oh man, this is sweeet. My only suggestion is to work on some of the tonal ranges, so that the red scarf is obviously different than the purple one, and the orange is different than the blue. At the moment all the skin tones and bandana colours look the same.
The actual idea is so cool ^^. The drawing is really good, fairly realistic (they are giant turtles, though there's only so much you can do XD). Definately a keeper!

Hiya!!! Thanks very much for the crit and suggestions.! I love getting crit!
I'll add a little difference to the skin tone and bandana colours... the guys themselves are all wearing red.. I was going to colour it and have them all wearing red.. but changed my mind and did pencil shading.. but the bandanas are all still red!
When I've improved it I'm going to resubmit it.

Thanks!!! Well I haave done a little pencil shading before.. but not in the same way... I used a HB and a 4B for this one. If I use more pencil grades.. I make a mess. If I use one... it's got no depth.. so I'm experimenting. Plus this is the first time I've blended with tissue.

I will, once I've done a little more on it. I got loads of great crits over at Mikey's so I'm working on it a little more, then I'll put it in tmntart.

Interesting composition. The shading creates a 3D-old photo look.
