The 'Tips for Doujinshi Artists' Thread
Rewriting Project
Ephemeral-Garden, fireflywishes, [insert your name/s here] and I are rewriting
and editing the "Tips for Doujinshi Artists" thread (click
[url=http://forum.minitokyo.net/thread/31870/tips-doujinshi-artists/]
here[/url]) to help people who are seeking help with their drawing
skills.
We will then propose to the MT moderators that it be red-pinned on the Art
Forum. We believe that this project will be a big boost to support independent
art and aspiring artists in Minitokyo.
All you doujin artists out there, whether you're in other MT doujin groups or
going solo, are happily welcomed to post your own tips and ideas here! Don't
worry about your poor/bad English; we'll try to understand one another, ne? Your
tips will be greatly anticipated and appreciated.

lovely doujin studio! Much love for NANA! Beautiful job on the shading--
especially on her hair! Endnote: I loooove her eyes!
Hi firefly, thanks for another nice comment & fave. I don't deserve it Another
Nana fan? Yahhhh huuuugs <3 <333 I`m glad you like her eyes, I really want
some fake lashes too. Maybe I'll buy @ christamas. I must save up even more.
I
don't know why you added me to watch HAHA. I don't submit very often!
Quote by fireflywishesThis is
definitely one of the best doujinshi I've seen from you catcrazy! Great job on
capturing so much movement! The shading is great and I like how he's balancing
on the text! Not too sure about the sparkles... but it's still a great job! Keep
it up!
Quote by fireflywishesOh this is
lovely Danielly-chan! (and Nooooo, this ending for Lexas looks so sad! ) The
colors go together really nicely and the shading is spot on! My favorite part
would definitely have to be the whole window scene with the city backdrop!
Really excellent blending of the colors! I would have to agree with Anj on his
elbow though... it does look a little twisted. But overall an excellent piece!
Keep up the great work!
hehe thank you for the comment ^^ i'm glad you liked it
and bout the ending... it's the begging form the ending hehe*strangeuj?*
actually in this ending Lexas umm do you really want me to tell you the ending?
anyway speaking of test... so how was your test... lol.. *you mention you are
taking a test the wk before at practice..."
btw... it seems that we are getting more newbie paddlers now. *yay for us* ... but a
lot of people are somewhat older though... I was
hoping to get some more youthful people but .. eh.. its fine.. at least now, we
really have another boat! so lol..
as soon as you are finish with your exams, get your butt back here and practice.
XP
and another thing... I think all of us state ppl from the team should just get
one day out and just hang out for lunch or something.. even if it ends up to be
in coffee 101. Or maybe we can do a Friday afternoon watching anime thing in the
science building w the anime club LOLx.. *not sure they still do that*
anyways .. I think I spam you enough...
*this is like an excause for me to goof off writing my papers* haha..
okay.. now I think I should get back to work.. Mata ne~
Quote: However, there are some episodes that can pretty much
be put off as a stand-alone itself which makes it pretty
meaningless.
I wouldn't exactly call them meaningless. They
serve as character development episodes and usually add a little bit of comedy.
(Though I do agree that there are one or two "wtf" episodes a la Cowboy Bebop.) Overall, I would agree
with the scores that you gave.
well, maybe you're right, it isn't exactly meaningless though there
are some episodes that just end a bit abruptly. thanks for the useful feedback!

Quote by fireflywishesHey there
Val4s. I saw your forum thread and felt that I had to respond. About half of my
gallery was deleted for the same reasons as your botchii message. Since there
were so many, I just said screw it and only re-uped the ones I was really proud
of. (Most of my older works were deleted). But please don't think that we do not
appreciate your artwork! I'm not really happy with all of the purges lately, but
I guess it's better than having a free-for-all in the gallery (cuz then we'd get
all kinds of crap). Well, I hope that you will reconsider depriving the gallery,
but most importantly, the other members of the opportunity to view your new
artwork here at MT.
I'll think about it, thanks for caring about my work^^
Quote by fireflywishesOh
SilentNymph this is really quite lovely! I'm glad that kyo got on your case
because I think it would be missing something if it were just in black and
white. I love the watercolors and the detailing around her eyes... I wish I
could shade like that with watercolors! (without poking a hole through the page
of course! ) However, I'm not sure how to describe it, but the way her body is
positioned looks really awkward to me. I think it's because the shadowing from
her right shoulder blade extends to the wings, which make them look off-center--
thus making her look lopsided. But it's still a great piece! (And it better not
get deleted!)
Hehehe- don't let me full ya...it has lot's of holes in it , I just patched it
up really good
About her back......it turned out even worse then in the schetch , trying to do
that shoulderblade ( which of cource no one would be able to define it as such
) ended up making her very very close to deformed.....
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your oppinion (and the nice
compliments )
Hi xD, thanks for comment and welcome. I forgot full stop cause there something
about saya-sama that make me just go woosh cause she's so fine and cool it
wicked. I wish she was my girlfriend but i don't think that will happen but
there's no harm in thinking that way. Anyway thanks and hope everything is going
great cya firefly-san.
Quote by fireflywishesLovely doujin
Sagnarn! Nice job on her umbrella and the overall composition! The shading is
good as well, though it could be a little cleaner in some areas... Other than
that the only other thing I see is that I think her left eye is either higher or
smaller than her right eye. But it's a lovely work overall! Keep it up!
Thanks for your comms, I had noticed an error also I corrected + of 10 times the
eye without result I will bring up to date the image by adding
details;)
ephie gave the green-go. So, go?

The last 2 and three story were the one that it is made to think renewing the
war.
The U.S. military bombed Metropolitan Opera House.
The talk changes.
The last dialog of Haji was so.
Nankurunaisa...You are loved and it does.
