Description I think I've rediscovered my love for marker and pencil crayons! I'm so happy, because they take hardly anytime at all and doesn't give me a headache from stairing at a computer screen! This is the pic for my next DA Id which I'll finish up and post later tomorrow, I'm tired now >.> This totally doesn't look like me but I think the colours came out nice and overall I'm happy with it (which is why I'm posting a larger pic of it seperate) I'll also probably be able to use this pic as an example for single character traditional commissions later :}

Very nice, lady. It's you to a tee.
I like how you've stylized the legs...kinda reminds me of the Gorillaz characters.

This is delightfully pretty. I thought at first the legs were too short, but I squinched and squinted, and NO. They're perfect!! I love the scarf.

This is so wonderful. I love that you used both markers and colored pencils, it really gives it this wonderful textured look on certain areas of the fabric. Awesome job!

Thank you I'm quite happy with the somewhat textured look and I'm also glad you like it! Thanks again!

aww she is so cute!!! how do you outline you pics and color them wit colored pencils/markers? mine always turn out bad or smuged....meow

sketchtastrophe In reply to mchsflutegirl [2006-02-10 21:49:22 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, glad you like it I usually do the lineart in pencil and try and get it as dark and clean as posssible. Then I make a photocopy of it which usually turns out a little lighter but it also gets rid of all the mistakes I made while drawing Then I colour the photocopy, that way if I make a terrible mistake I can start over without ruining the original I do markers first as flat colours and shade or colour the rest of the small area's with pencil crayons! I usually have to go back over the lines with a pencil again when I'm done though so they show :} Hope that helped/answered your question? :]
