[quote gaara-no-shukaku=Should this be deleted of having a coloured version]Well, in the case of scans, yes. The coloured version is almost always preferred over the B&W (unless its a rare occasion where the B&W is better quality). But in the case of doujinshi & wallpapers we don't allow multiple versions or works in progress. So when someone submits a B&W pencil drawing followed by a colour version it means that only one can remain, and that (usually) the first version is deleted.

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuWell, thanx for clearing it up. :D I thought I did wrong when reporting it. :\

You sounded unsure with your report, but you got it absolutely right! :D

Quote by alterlierI feel good about your painting style and I dont have any complaints about that ( not like maple)
but you know.....yeah that background idea was pretty lame, for such a nice painting image you didnt find anything better than clouds?
I just think so much space, filled with these clouds is taking out my attention from the girl...that's not good.

STFU IT'S JUST A MINOR WORK! ~_~ I'm just playing with painting, and trying to improve my clouds. >__>

I DONT CARE

Thank you so much for the comment and favorite on my Dark Mousy Vector! ^-^ I'm very glad you like it!

lol, sorry for another comment. I just noticed, it took 3 mins to load the psp file? ZOMG....
You should work with smaller size first, then when finished, enlarge it to whatever size. It will take few Mb on the file. Really...

Nah, it won't turn out as good quality if I do it that way. Plus, I might miss out on some details.
It's a good idea in theory though. n_n

Quote by moonescapeOMG! This is beautiful! I'm definately having first hand to vectoring this one. I got dibs. >:D

You know I will wall that one. >:D

Wow! I was about to wall it too, but I don't have any idea so I'll leave that up to you. :D Can't wait to see it when I'm done vectoring it. :)

r q g

Heya! I finally got the chance to reply to your comment :D.

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuMan, I have to twist my head for better viewing.
First try on vectoring photo? ZOMG... that's incredible.
Nice colour choices, nice use of gradients. Love the hair and it's little details. Nice skin shading, though there's some black patches. And the eye, it's creepy...

Aah thanks! It really is my first time, I'm somehow proud it ended like that :). At least it ain't really some shitty attempt of some little pen tool use ^__^. BTW! I was actually inspired of your Amy Lee vexel, kyah that is so perfect~ But I discovered your vexeling skin tutorial only after I finished all of it so I didn't use it... but I bet I'll use it in some later works. :D I know there are a lot of mistakes on the skin hehe ^_^' There lots and lots of other mistakes but I hope people won't notice them :). Only I know where they are mwahahhhhaa! >=3 Ahh and I know about the eye but you see, I couldn't distinguish the colors and I was too lazy to try re-drawing it.

Anywayz, regarding your username, you like Naruto? [the anime/manga, that is] Cuz I have this cute NarutoxCasper card XD. Hope you like it~

Hope to hear from you soon! Till then, take care and bye :D

Heh heh, thank you!
It took a helluva lotta patience, and it nearly killed me. But, as you said less than 10 lines above this, it was worth it.

=3 Yeah! Go PSP! =D

A little question : is the original scan has that kind of lines, like wobbly lines?

Hugs! - Syaoran & Sakura
I wouldn't say they're so much wobbly lines (although they are in mine), but if you look carefully at the big original scan, it has gaps in some of the black lines.

r q g

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuI didn't get this one right. I had in my rough list that this was either yours, Piccolo's or Candy's. And I stupidly picked Piccolo. (Though I actually want to change it to you, because of the freehand clouds)

I love the simplicity, and nice colour scheme. =) And I think her pose is kinda funny.

merged: 04-24-2007 ~ 09:53pm
By the way, why you don't want to upload the Elfen Lied wall? That also crapped me to guess it as Piccolo's wall.

lol, yeah the scan pose is what made me want to wall it. I started doing random things with it XD

nah, that Elfen Lied wall will most likely be deleted even if I do submit it. I mean, I made that in like 20 minutes, with some random brushes and textures (I did say last time that I wanted to make a totally typical wall XD). I thought that one would be hard to guess 'cause I've never done a grungy wall before.. I thought this one would be easy, 'cause of my thick vector lines.... so I'm surprised that only one person got this one :\

Quote by gaara-no-shukaku-pokes Sakura- :D

Anyway, is this vector art or painting? :nerd:

lol, it's more of a painting than a vector methinks, but since MT has no painting gallery, any type of art that is traced/copied from scans get shoved into this category, and that includes colouring in black/white manga scans (like totally CGing, even without any vectoring) :\ ... I tried to suggest a separate misc category or something for things like that, but they said it's not neccessary.. I guess MT's definition of vectors is just different from everyone else. 'cause in the gallery description, it says 'traced art', so I guess any sort of traced/copied art would count...

r q g

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuNice painting. It does look like vector-to-painting rather than complete painting.
I love those effects you put on her leg. Is it mainly filters + smudging? Great job btw. =)

w00t, you're now a mod? =O Congrats anyway. =)


Thanks a bunch for the comment on "Innocence"! Nope, the effects are brushes + vectoring + smudging (with a little "Outer-glow-ness" XD
And thanks for the congrats! I'll do my best =D

r q g

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuYo, are you leaving too, like Candy, for 4 months? :(

well, sort of, but not really. I am starting a new job in a new place and stuff, but I do have Internet access and probably some free time, so I'll be on from time to time... just, not as much.

r q g

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuThis is truely unique! Outstanding line-art. Clean and crisp vector. I'm really wondering, how the hell you can vector those lines? O__O They're so randomly "spiky" and clean.

It's worth 5 months to create this unbelievable masterpiece. Great job overall. =)

(And yay for PSP vector layers goodness)

Heh heh, thank you!
It took a helluva lotta patience, and it nearly killed me. But, as you said less than 10 lines above this, it was worth it.

=3 Yeah! Go PSP! =D

r q g

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuI like how the vector turned out, although you've been in all the sadness thing. It's a bit jagged, but nonetheless, the colouring is pretty impressive.
Yeah, I like the texturey background. Watching multiple rainbows is kinda weird, especially when it comes to scenic wall. And also, I don't think birds brushes work well here, since they're semi-transparent, they slightly gave un-lively impression. But anyhow, I love the sparkling tears. ^__^

So sorry I didn't reply about this earlier. :sweat:

Wish I could change it, but I accidentally deleted the PSD file of it. T_T So I have to leave the wallpaper like that. x_x

r q g

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuHeh, your Elfen Lied wall is missing..

OMG CANDY HACKS INTO GAARA'S POST
Yeah it didnt fit in the featured gallery, besides it wasn't nouveau really, nor jugendsil..just elfen lied.
oh yeah and I inserted Iris no Atelier and Marie no Atelier categories into the Kohime Ohse artist cat, cause that's life. Now browsable through there
[/hack]

ZOMG CANDY MISUSED HER POWER
-reports-

FAILFAILFAILFAILFAIL
I R THE ONE TO PROCESS THE REPORTS WAHAHAHAA


btw im leaving in a couple of hours, have a nice 4 months~ hope to see you make more nouveau goodness when i come back :D

Quote by gaara-no-shukaku
Very nice painting, really soft and smooth. The floor, did you use texture or you just smudged it randomly?. It's kinda cool, btw.

To make it look preeetty, I'll probably make the background darker, and add more shadow on the girl, to create a dramatic lighting on her. So, she's like watching the moon or something.

But if you don't want dramatic lighting concept, you can just add a few lighting, not dramatic, on her head or which ever parts, and the floor too. (Coz she's in a ballroom)

Try adding other subjects, preferably something less detailed. Like petals(in the screenshot), or magical sparkles, what ever you like.

Background, maybe adding some legs(lol) so we'd know she's in a ballroom. And try blurring them, so that the girl is the focal point.

thank you VERY VERY much for your comment. It helped me a lot! <3 <3 <3 Well I used a painting from a church in the background to reflect to the ballroom. I think I'll add some "legs" people XD or maybe a part of balldress. You are right that would make it more authentic.
Thank you! <3
btw: you have cool wallpapers! I love the Lacus one.. Lacus is sooo damn cute. *add to watchlist*

Take care ^^

r q g

when are you going to post your elfen lied wall D:
I want to destroy it already!

r q g

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuNice wings, I love how the invisiblity turns visible when I full-view it. And of course, the textures work well here.

Just something in my mind, why the hair colour completely change from blue to violet? Weird over-saturated skin outline, she seems kinda exposed to some sort creepy radiation, that utterly changed the outline to orange, soft brown, and black?

Erm =.=" i just follow the color on the image that i wanted the vectordesu~
Kinda weird ne? *cough* the liney should be different color ^^" well, because of the texture, it turn it like that desu~ >_<

Am that lazy to make one ^^" *laugh alone*

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuI think I got which walls are yours, but a question here, your walls are all vectored?
It's totally harder this time, and wonder what will happen for the future rounds... X___X

Well, I can say that I did use the pen tool a lot...

yup... it's impossible... I've tried 3 times, and still less than 50% DX I suck at this!

the first round was easy, now that we got multiple people making multiple walls... and more artists participating, it's hard!

Why can't you? Not enough credits? I can help ya :nerd:

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuO__o I don't know you're a guy. By looking at your avy, I refered you as "she". Sorry about that. ^_^' By the way, good luck on the group-listing thing. Cool yo. :D


lol.....it's alright. nothing wrong :) i'm quite used to it...
the avy represents my interests = fashion designing. actually, i'm not sure if the using opposite sex's avy is strictly forbidden or not since many of my friends do the same too
nyaaaa....it do happen in reality too. i was terribly underweight during national service (but the non military type conscription), that looking from behind me, some of my friends mistook me as a girl! (because of my thin waist)

thanks very much for your compliment and understanding too :D
i think it's because i add some hilarious stuff like this:

Quote: ANOTHER AWESOMELY DEAD GROUP! ^^v http://otherworld.minitokyo.net/


...which made others misunderstood me as picking up some fight ^_^'
actually, i was just getting a little sleepy, that's why i add some craps to cheer myself up X-P

same to you. have a nice day ^^

Oh my, I'm really sorry for that. I don't know that you were the admin before. I was wondering why there's no admin/member there, maybe some kind of bug. But I quickly jumped to conclude that it was abandoned. If you feel want to re-create the group, feel free to do so. :D Sorry again :(

nah~ it's okie~ nevermind~ i can't make anymore groups so yeah~ see ya around~

Quote by gaara-no-shukakuFirst try on vectoring photo, wow! The skin looks nice, yeah the lips are kinda squarey abit. I like how the hair turned out, less details but still good for the whole vector. And the textures blended well with the vector. But I feel that the tattoo didn't work well here. (Btw, is the original photo really that small?)


Hi!
Thanks a lot for the comment! It's really appreciated. :)
I added the tattoo cause I thought that the whole image was kinda...too simple ^_^'
The original pic is bigger. :)
Thanks again!

Freehand is not my friend, since it's tablet-friendly. How can it be your friend? lol.

it saves a LOT of clicking and dragging, which makes my finger tired XD .. not the most accurate, but for my purpose it was good enough :D

bad.. got less than 50% on first try as well ...

I dunno which one(s) are yours D: I don't even know if you made 1 or 2...

I can't figure out who did #16. I don't think it's candy-chan, doesn't look like starr's, maybe alterlier's

I've figured out PiccoloBear's, Tama-neko's, annakee's, and I think I got most of candy's. Dunno if I got ShiXon's. And I have no idea about flyin'... her style is so hard to pick out, and considering what she did last time, who knows (but I don't think #5 is hers, unless she's trying to make it obvious) D:

#22 is SO obvious XD

did you get mine?
