Description My laptop just cannot handle 164 layers on Photoshop... Saving took like over one minute at a time. God forbid I have to wait over one minute for something on a computer. lol I shouldn't complain... I should just flatten layers more often.

My kingdom for more ram...


Any way, my final part of my entry to Purity's current contest (to create a character that could fill in for Flinzy the Tiger in Team Purity). I'm very pleased with how it turned out.

[EDIT] Changed Michelle's line.

Characters:

Karri the Cockatoo -
Flinzy the Tiger -
Purity the Hedgehog -
Michelle the Wolf -

Well shit.
I have never seen a comic on dA so well made before to look fit the style properly. This is nice, you even added correct thought and speak bubbles unlike the tacky ones people try and use.

Thanks so much! Made sure I had a couple of Archie Sonic comic's handy while doing this, to try imitate it as best I could.

Thank you. xD I'm trying really hard this year to put lots of effort into my art. Problem is it means it takes me way longer to finish things.

JustSheir In reply to TricksyPixel [2010-01-28 10:37:52 +0000 UTC]

AH I know how it feels, but it's much more rewardign to look at your gallery and see pretty picture you can be superly proud of wich you never thoguth you could do compared to shitty quick ones.
I started working harder/longer half way through my gallery hee and lookign at what I can do now and he shitness I drew before... I'm ashamed and surprisded what I did then...

TricksyPixel In reply to JustSheir [2010-01-28 19:32:34 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, it is well worth it~!

I know a while back I was browsing through some old pictures in my gallery from years back, and I was pretty shocked. =\ I used to think they were pretty good, but when I saw them again I couldn't believe how bad they were. xD Sadly I deleted most. Kinda wish I didn't, so I could compare them some more.

JustSheir In reply to TricksyPixel [2010-01-28 19:36:16 +0000 UTC]

xD I haven't deleted anything, all ym super old art is on :devjustbethn:, but even lookign at this only a few months old account, I cna look at the first hald and feel sickened at the way I abbused my programe so badly Dx
I think I was better two years ago at stuff then I was in the older part of this gallery D:

Hurms, well that's what happens when you delete I guess? xD That's why I decide never to delete. xD

LOL. Poor Karri. Doesn't look like it'd be easy to clean in that outfit.
You did a lovely job with the coloring, but damn, that's a hella lotta layers. It looks crazy fantastic though.

Yeah. x_x If I fully colour a comic page again, I don't think I'll use 4 shades on everything.. This took way too many layers for my computer. =S

2 or 3 is enough. lol

ShelliStar [2010-01-26 17:55:39 +0000 UTC]

This is really good, I like the character's design and colours, she looks lovely <3

Only thing I will be honest about is..I'm not sure about Michelle's lines XD. I dunno if she'd say something like that because she's more of a 'sweet' girl then getting annoyed easy. Plus I don't wanna sound like a nitpicky saying that, just being honest is all

Still, its a great picture, Love the colouring and the details, nice work <3

TricksyPixel In reply to ShelliStar [2010-01-27 02:48:42 +0000 UTC]

By all means, that's fine to say. She's you're character. xD I'll change it to something less harsh. Don't happen to have any suggestions on what she would say, do ya?

And thanks much for the comments!

ShelliStar In reply to TricksyPixel [2010-01-27 12:36:15 +0000 UTC]

Well, I just looked at it and it seems you changed it and by looking at it now with the change, that IS something Michelle would say XD

Still if you want suggestions..then I'd say these:
"Purity..this is not how we treat her!"
"Purity Nooo! This isn't right!"
"Oh Purity..let the girl be pleeeease?"

Those are from the top of my head XD I'm sorry I didn't reply right away I had to go offline XD and ya welcome <3

TricksyPixel In reply to ShelliStar [2010-01-28 19:27:46 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for making those suggestions!

I changed it to the second one.

Don't worry bout not replying straight away~ I just changed it to something different before you replied, so less people would see the original line.
