Description Another collaboration I have done this month, teaming up with *eldiman , and featuring our both main characters, Tokami and skifi. Full view is advised, but to buy a print of it is even more recommended, lol

I'm still amazed at Diman's art... he can draw in sooo many styles, and be so variegated, it's almost incredible. This is the third time we have worked together, and may be the best one in my opinion.... let's see what do you all think: Feed us with your opinions and constructive criticism, it's the main key to find out what's wrong if we want to do it better next time!

Lineart (c) *eldiman
Colorwork (c) ^skifi

(Special thanks to *seel-dingo because he helped me to choose some colors)

You know, the main difference is surely how the thin lineart looks like here, it made the colors look even more detailed! :3

Whoa, it's so cool to see that awesome lineart colored!!!

I can't even believe what you did with texture here- how did you do that! Everything has its own feel to it, from the jeans to the hats to the belt buckles. Wonderful color choices and great job blending the background in with the lines. This just turned out so amazing- awesome job!!! : D

skifi In reply to Takarama [2008-02-18 23:28:15 +0000 UTC]

Glad to know you liked it so much :] Jeans textures are something I got used to do since some time ago, I even created my own pattern to do it... but the leathered items are still a nightmare, I hope to not need to deal with them again soon!

I love the coloring and the lineart. It's very thin so it isn't like a cartoon pasted on a photo type thing xP But it's a real good touch to the pic :3

Deffinately your best collab with Eldiman detail-wise. But I still love "we need attention" the most. Both your characters are so darn cute in that one.

As soon as you leave your artblock aside, of course! The more detailed the work is, the better I try it with my colors, that's why your style would be so spectacular to work with, because you're so careful when drawing everything, even if little things

*pokepoke* Light source, Skeefkins XD

If the light's throwing that sharp and distinct of a shadow, it's a bright directional light, and the highlights would be bright and specific as well!

AWESOME job blending it to the photo, though, I didn't even notice it was on a photo bg right away, which says a LOT!

GO SKEEF GO! XD
