Description 1366x768
Looks fuzzy on deviant, but download it and it'll be super crisp
Maybe I should've done this in the first place? I like the vertical version, but horizontally it's much easier to look at... I might edit the original post. Maybe. I dunno. I could always make a poll asking which you guys like better or something I dunno. Either way, here's a wallpaper version if you wanna try it out (flipped it every which way, and this way looked best)

Ah, it looks nice horizontal as well! I actually tried it out as a wallpaper and I think it definitely spices up my desktop~

*Turn my head on the right..* *Turn my head on the left*
*Fall* 8D

More seriously, i like this version. We can see more detail from the Sonic and Werehog side without falling. >:3

Haha Yeah, it's a lot easier to see both halves in this version, whereas in the vertical one I felt like a lot of my hard work would be overlooked

Thanks!

Are you just asking what program did I use, or do you want me to go into more detail about my coloring process?

Alrighty, well, I use photoshop cs3. My process is really basic lol... The only thing worth mentioning is I color the background, characters, and eyes&nose on different layers, just to keep them separate. All I do is zoom out so the pic is really small, then throw super bright colors around with a flat brush til it looks basically how I like. After that, it's the painful process of zooming in and smoothing the colors into sharp shapes.

Oh yeah, a few things. I use the hue/saturation and levels tools a lot to really push the colors and contrast. I also use the fade brush tool in order to get ridiculously colorful shadows--I usually brush a hot pinkish purple over the area I want to shade, then use the fade brush tool to decrease its opacity. It's also what I do if I can't quite get the right color--like if I have blue but I want it more blue green, I'll brush a bright green over it and use the fade brush to get the color I want.

That's all I can think of really...

Hey. Don't knock paint. People can make great stuff with that program. Like everything else, it just takes practice

I actually draw free hand then colour on paint. I'd hate to see what my full artwork would look like on there

Haha! You'd be surprised what you can do with a little practice But you're definitely right, it's much easier to draw it on paper first!

Do you draw on paper first?

rontufox In reply to LittleKittyLionheart [2012-02-12 03:23:07 +0000 UTC]

I used to, but not anymore. I've never been very good at line art to begin with. Now I don't draw with lines at all, I just paint color shapes to sketch out an image.

! Haha, yeah, it's totally possible. If I ever try out the one-hour Sonic thing, I'll record it and then you can see how I do it.
