Its a great tutorial in its simplicity.

For more pointers of how to utilize proper cell-shading approach and contrast I suggest looking up Ryusuke Hanamoto here on DevArt.

His "how to" videos are awesome and helped me a bundle.

Keep up the good work.

yours looks better than Enix's =3

they should make an OVA, but then again, they JUST finished AC, working on FF VS XIII (int he new remastered form for PS3) and then working on KH FM+ at the same time then KH III, they have no time XD

maybe you should do the animation

Hi! I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to have to decline your offer to color I'm fairly busy right now trying to finish off some commissions and working on older projects. I do suggest trying coloring on your own - there are coloring tutorials on DA that will help. It's good experience!

Plua [2007-02-09 15:08:07 +0000 UTC]

Great! One question, wich class of pencil/brush do you use? My problem with PS is that I don't find any good brush to do an acceptable lineart, sorry for my english >.<

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

rubyd In reply to Plua [2007-02-10 00:57:48 +0000 UTC]

I use a thin brush... just the plain default ones. Sometimes I try to use the Pen Tool (that vector-based thing) but it's hard to get used to (I'd recommend trying to find a tutorial). BUt yeah... lineart on photoshop usually don't turn out great. x-x sometimes I do it on openCanvas first

Plua In reply to rubyd [2007-02-10 11:06:26 +0000 UTC]

Okey ^^ Thanks for the info I usually try to use the default brushes but... the results aren't so good xD

rubyd In reply to razzmatazztwink [2007-02-07 03:29:04 +0000 UTC]

Yup, hard round brush. I do, however, run over my blur tool to fuzz up the lines on the coloring a little.

how long does it usually take to draw something that you post. I have tried drawing, and I'm nowhere near good enough to even post it online. (That and I don't have a scanner) So I just take pictures and try to have them be good with a little handheld.
