Description Title is...kinda random. lol.

Happy belated birthday !
Goodness I'm so sorry that I'm late. I even wouldn't notice that it was your birthday if haya didn't make the gift for you~ XD I know I should've made you @CG art == so sorry that this is all I can do for now.

Anyway, here is another chibi of mine <3
I tried doing eyes differently this time. Although it doesn't turn out to be very vivid, I like it. lol. As usual, hair is my most favorite part
Background is made from the mixture of the transparent chibis with some Photoshop's basic shape.

Last but not least... My tablet is broken T___T that's why I become less active in submitting stuffs... I guess I just get lazy in coloring manually without tablet :3

Enjoy!

Hi! Thank you so much for drawing this as a birthday present! ^____^v

True it's not necessarily @CG art (although she can pass for Reina, kinda), but it's pretty just as it is. ^.^

[besides, if it were @CG art, I'd probably encourage the use of a CC-BY-SA license, lol] ^v^

What's the girl's name? For now, I'll call her Cly-chan, lol.

Overall quality is very good. The eyes are a lot better compared to the other image I commented on last time. I still think they could be 75% smaller, but that's just y own tastes -- in reality, because tastes differ among different artists, plus she's a chibi, you have lots of leeway over how large you want them.

Hair is surprisingly exquisite for a chibi and her clothing is nicely coloured and folded. ^.^

The background is interesting, but somehow I think it could be a little brighter with candy colours (or maybe even candy literally: [link]

What's so amazing, though, is how extraordinarily vector-like the image is, and it makes me wonder how easily you'd be able to reproduce this in a vector program like Inkscape. I know that when I transitioned from Photoshop vector tools to Inkscape ones many years ago, the difference was staggering. ^___^

I certainly would encourage you to give it a try, if at least to use a program that's a lot more mouse-friendly (I actually stopped using a tablet thanks to Inkscape for many years).

Some interesting sample screenshots are here (listed by version):

And my collection of free SVG files for study are here too:

Let me know if you're interested. ^__~

And of course, if you need help paying for tablet repairs or replacement, please let me know too. I might be able to help you with that.

You're welcome I'm glad that I can give you something

lol does she look like reina? ^^
I like reina. She's a tough one, and I like strong girls
LOL I forgot to put the license @@ although this is not @CG art, but I really support the use of CC-BY-SA license

I didn't think of any name, so Cly-chan is fine, lol. It's kinda cute too

Thank youuuu <3
That's why I love doing chibis. I don't have to follow certain rules to make it look realistic haha~ I'm not doing very well on anatomy, lighting, and shades, but this is something you may have known from my other drawings
<333 Hair is my favorite part too

Oh noes the candy looks yummy T^T
I agree that this can be a nice addition for the background~... Do I need to edit the candy a bit so it will be cartoon-like?

I do feel interested in learning Open Source programs ^^ unfortunately just feeling interested won't help me getting somewhere. I need time to learn them all, and time isn't something I have at the moment. Oh, the down point of college X_X
Oh? Inkscape is mouse-friendly? Niceee~ I think photoshop is more mouse-friendly compared to SAI, but I like SAI. The program isn't too heavy to be ran on standard PC, unlike the photoshop @@
When another holiday comes, I'll ensure I'll try those programs you've recommended

That's so kind of you, but it's fine
I don't have any problems financially, plus I think it's bad to ask help when I'm capable of doing it :3 thanks for offering though
I may try to repair it by myself if I can, lol.

Btw thanks for the fave also

Yo, Star Chinchilla! ^^
Sorry for the late reply, I was on a bit of a business trip...

Yep, Reina is nice, tall and strong, but there's not much to really show it yet. In time hopefully.

Cly-chan it is then. ^__^
Was thinking of Roanna, but it's already been taken by a cute chibi... ^.^

[link]

And well oooooookaaaaaay... I'll admit you might have a little bit of problem with certain things as far as full-sized drawing goes, but I said before it's nothing a little extra fine-tuning wouldn't fix. You just have to get the right "problem-solving" angle in order to achieve the results you want (or think you want). ^^

haha! Well actually I just posted the candy more as a reference, it can be anything that's bright or frilly, preferably something hand-drawn. And cartoony style would definitely look best, although it would have to be very light. ^^

Aaaah yes, I do remember how college used to zap ALL my free time -- eventually I got to questioning why I was paying so much to be treated like a slave. All my computer stuff (including open source) I learned AFTER college when I was finally free,... XD

But in any event, as long as you use stuff like Firefox or Pidgin, you're already doing a small part to help support Open Source. ^^

I've been supporting an open source project called Krita which will definitely be a great alternative to SAI, in that it handles painting, vectoring and editing much like SAI does, but it will be free (for real), nicer-looking and easy to translate into various languages, My hope is that it will become a magnificent drawing tool -- but since it's still in beta now it doesn't have a standalone Windows installer. ^__^

And okay, let me know when the tablet is a-okay then. ^^
I don't think it's too big of a problem, though, since I've been drawing without a tablet for years.

I'm the first :3

Wuooo, jadi ni dikerjain pake mouse, ya? Meski gitu, masi keren, kok :3

Juga imyuuuuut :3 :3

Hmm, aku suka warnanya, lembut Matanya juga bagus, kok. Juga rambutnya (ketauan deh itu yang paling disenengi, bikin rambut! Soalnya emang keliatan niat banget..... Hahaha!)

Good job, after all :3

MizuuHime In reply to stardust-oracle [2010-09-19 12:13:01 +0000 UTC]

Hee, kenapa musti capek2 diwarnain segala? Pake pen tool aja, dengan warna tertentu, ntar kalo g suka kan bisa dirubah warnanya...

Haha, emang siiih, tapi aku lebih suka gambar dewasa karena lebih menantang pewarnaannya

Gambar aja rambut yang banyak, gak usa pake muka....

Hoho, sama2

Iyahhh, aq pk pen tool hitam dulu, trs baru aq warnain satu2
wuakakaka kurang kerjaan bngt

bagiku lebih menantang anatominya hiks~
anatomi saya kacau.. apa perlu aq menyusup d kelas DKV ya? wkakakaka

MizuuHime In reply to stardust-oracle [2010-09-19 14:15:58 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, gimana kalo dilock aja opacity-nya terus di edit-fill? Itu lebih gampang, lho, dibanding ngewarnain lagi satu2.... Kayak orang kurang kerjaan aja.... Contohnya, nih, kalo aku bikin gambar yang suasananya sunset ato malem.... Jadi kayak versi kedua gitu. Dari yang sunset, warna kulitnya aku ubah dari yang oranye ke yang rada abu2 biru biar kesannya malem.... Dengan gitu kamu gak perlu bingung2 lagi ngubah warna....

Huahaha, jangan deh. Soalnya sekarang kelas DKV lagi susah, mendingan kalo mau nyusup ke semester 2 aja, kelas ekspresi ntar....

Iya, ya, jadi sadako, donk.... Wkwk.
