I know the feeling, the current story I'm working on is a result of listening to Iron Maiden, Megadeth, and and drinking Jack Daniels.

How curious it is to see the beginnings of Gogo as a skinnier, sleepy-eyed girl. It's almost... disturbing, in fact, to see her not speak in her peculiar mode of speech I first fell in love with.
But even four years ago your work's wonderful.

EDDIE OWNS YOUR SOUL . . . ahem. now i have the urge to draw Gogo as Eddie. iron maiden are so unbelievably awesome, and having Gogo appreciate them is . . . an amplifier. this picture makes me happy to the core of my soul

VanHeist In reply to AFH [2006-10-17 23:57:59 +0000 UTC]
hmmm....i'll try!
take a fairly clean inked drawing (ink on tracing paper over the original pencils for a cleaner-looking set of lines...works pretty good) and color it with simple color fields. i use a polygonal lasso tool in photoshop for that, and also for adding small bits of shading.
for these two i made simple backgrounds and blurred them a LOT, because they're not really important for anything but effect. Then box the image in a la "widescreen style" with black rectangles.
for the lettering i think i used a real basic font like Arial. if you have a program like illustrator you can make a white or yellow font with thick black borders for the subtitles, and stick them where they look appropriate. blur the text a little for a vid-cap look
it's pretty simple doing it this way...and there's less tricks to it than you might think. the real challenge, again, would be animating the stuff in the first place. did that help at all? i suck at telling how to do things....

The old man looked in his crystal ball...
...and saw that your work was pretty excellent really. I see that when it comes to anime style artwork, you're no stranger in a strange land. Aces high, dammit! Lol

you know, I could be at a funeral, and if someone drove by cranking Iron Maiden on their stereo i'd break into leaping and air guitar....
thanks very much for the loaded comment but truly, this piece nowhere near encompasses the awesome rush i get from that track....it'll be revisited for sure
thanks again!

*0* I think you've heard this just about 5 times already, but you've definitely succeeded in giving this piece a funky animated feel to it. I love the subtitle so much...And Gogo's goofy smile...>

thanks i was trying to think of what she'd be saying with that silly expression, and my Iron Maiden playlist flipped on....hehe Gogo and Iron Maiden...that'd end in fire....
since i was in no mood to over-color stuff, i'll tell ya a little secret about the background....it's a picture I took of a dry fountain park a couple months back heavily modified, but, just a picture. Still, after some tweaking it looks like an appropriately blurred animated background, and i'm glad the subtitle came out like it did.
thanks again!
