Please comment before you favorite, I would like to know WHY you like the picture.
13,000 kiriban picture for =Ragthorn .



I'm pretty happy with how this came out even though it is very messy. Anyone remember how I said that the kiriban would be for something small? Yep, I decided on a headshot. It was originally supposed to be not colored, but I really liked how the sketch came out and decided it needed color. I also added a line of color dodge around the character, it seems that a lot of cool icons do that. ^.<

Sorry about the messiness, by the way. Photoshop and my computer don't get along very well so it's really hard for me to clean stuff up. Photoshop " I NEED MOAR RAM!" computer: "Bitch, please. My RAM is just at your required level so stop bitchin'." ....They have these fights every three or four minutes and it lasts about 30 seconds until they shake hands and decide to work together. Goody?

If anyone is interested, a sketch of something like this will cost you $8 bucks OR you can buy me a three month subscription. Two full colored ones like this will cost you a year subscription.

This looks really great!
I like the glow around the character it looks really neat. *-*


My laptop is evil it get very slow at certain times. ._.
I still think photoshop is confusing to use. So I just mess around in it 'cause of boredom. Haha. xP

Thank you! It's actually not a glow, but more like an outline to separate the character from the background in case it's used as an icon or something. I don't think I did it right, though. :/

I don't like laptops. They seem overpriced to me......

Very nice picture. Gives off a rather, intense feeling. I like it.
Especially the lightning in the background, and the angry expression. >

Pastiche-X In reply to Cinder-Flesh [2008-06-10 00:21:53 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, yeah, I was watching Metalocalypse while fleshing out the general color scheme. Maybe that's the source of the intensity?

Thank you! I'm pretty happy with how the background and expression came out, too.

Stop gazing! You're making him self-conscious! D:<

Thanks! Red and blue is such an awesome combo.

"Art trade for ~Pastiche-X!

This is his character Kit. I hope you like it!"

You are... a he now? D: I am confuzzled.

HEY LOOK ART FROM PASH. This is an epic moment, let us sit and stare and gaze in wonder. -gazes-

I like the messy feel, and the colors you picked really work well together, they really draw your attention to the chara (especially that red hair, mmhmm <3)

Nice work :B

Yes! And Pastiche is a dude! A purple/white dude with rainbowish stripes! (and Kit is a girl with spiked collars and red/brown coloring)
MUAHAHAHAHA! Continue confuzzling before my completely randomly-gendered characters!!11!!!!!

Thanks! Nice to hear that the messy thing worked out. I thought that everyone would hate it, but it seems to have gone over pretty well (got four favorites so far.... more than my usual one or two by the next day).

Thank you!
The expression is one of my favorite things in the picture. I wasn't expecting it to turn out so well (especially when I tend to fail at snarlies usually).

Thank you so much for such a nice comment! I'm happy that you liked it.

If you're interested in WIP stuff (well, the sketch and maybe a bigger version) I could put it up on my LJ if you want. That is, if you have an LJ account.
