Description Whew! finally got my Drawing kickback on and finished my half of the Art Trade I did with My apologies for taking so long to get this out....I hope that the cool factor makes up for it!

Anyways, I think I much improved my digital coloring on this one, and my shading too. Thanks for looking everyone!

Oh, btw, Vhe, look at her forehead.... I put the Zabby horns on there!

Nice collaberation there! I'm a fan of both of you. I like the glittery details on the armor.

I like this, the texturing you did on the hard parts of the armor is really cool... Can you explain how you did it?

Pheonix023 In reply to afangirlsdream [2008-08-25 04:12:21 +0000 UTC]

Sure thing...just as a heads up, I use Adobe Photoshop elements 4.0, so if you are using a differnt program, this stuff might b called differently/non existant.

I started with my flat colors like you saw in the WIP, and then I went over it with a faux texture brush (called cellophane I think?) set on "color dodge." I had the opacity at 20% I think, but I don't really remember...anyways, I just went over th whole thing with it, and then went over areas I wanted to highlight a second time.

Then you change your brush out to a regular soft edge (black, 15% opacity) and use it to add in the shadows.

Presto! Instant sparkley armor....

Sweet ass.. Slick looking colors and all that, nice textures and the like. The only thing that I could say forthis is that she feels kinda stiff. Probably should have said that in the lines but what are you going to do. Very nice though. 185 proof awesomesauce.

Ori'kandosii, Jess'ika!

The colors look splendid, I love the moody atmosphere the lightning and shading creates, works excellent. I'm especially impressed by the texture of the armor plates, bravo!

Lol, first time ever doing sparkly armor...I think I worship the color burn/dodge tools....

CorranFett In reply to Pheonix023 [2008-08-20 17:58:11 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, me too. Believe me, they are damn useful. Tho I prefer the Corel Painter dodge/burn tools to the PS ones for shading. They also add a certain grain.

Lol, I use photoshop elements...the grains due to the brush I used...nice that it has about 150 different ones...

Very nice. I see dead SBD's. I also see horns on her head. I like how you did the armour. Looks very nice.

Oh yes they are. Especially on Republic Commando. They're too much of a pain when they're functional.
