Description My lineart which you can find here: [link]

I tried a digital colouring for once and I kinda like it.
The transparency of the cloths nearly killed me...
It's a different colour scheme than in the traditionally coloured version and even somewhat of a background!

Tell me what you think, every tipp is appreciated!

I have a friend from Germany too! And she's really great at art, just like you (although she takes art on a different form though).
The color composition in this one is mighty nice! It's cool, but literally cool, for a start. the blue really helps viewers relax their eyes on finer and peaceful details

Nice job!

What kind of art form does she use?

Thank you for the nice words.

Looks great! Albeit a lil' stiff.

Didn't you just colour it in solidly and adjust the transparency? O_o;

Thank you!
You are right, the anatomy looks a bit wrong but the lineart is already kinda old^^
Besides, it didn't loom that wrong uncoloured ^^'

Yes, I did it xactly as you said. However, I'm a newbie and I didn't know how to do it so I had to try out alot until I found out how to do it best

You did transparency with crayons?

DjangoX In reply to geralin [2009-10-23 04:35:19 +0000 UTC]

Nono. I drew two seperate pictures with pencil crayon. (character, and background)

And on PS, I cut out the part I wanted transparent onto another layer and adjusted the transparency of that layer. XD;

das hast du in GIMP gemacht?!?! holy smokes wow.
ne echt. wirklich wirklich gut... und die transparenz hast du wahnsinnig gut getroffen! (ich hab mich in "meiner version" ja da nicht drΓΌbergetraut )
das ganze bild schaut total schwerelos aus. sehr sehr schΓΆn

geralin In reply to 1Rusty [2009-10-10 08:47:00 +0000 UTC]

Was haben alle gegen GIMP? Ich hab mal Photoshop ausprobiert... viel zu kompliziert
Das mit der Transparenz war etwas tricky, da muss man etwas tΓΌffteln, aber zum GlΓΌck kann man ja einzelne Ebenen durchsichtig stellen
Das ist eigentlich der ganze Trick an der Sache.
DankΓΆ, dankΓΆ... aber an einen Hintergrund hab ich mich nicht rangetraut... bei sowas hab ich immer plΓΆtzlich geistige Leere

Oh, is this your first time colouring digitally? It's really good! Even if it's not your first time it's still good. Which program did you use?

Thank you, yes, it was the first time. I really enjoyed working digitally.

Ooh, I think you did an amazing job with the digital colouring! It all looks soft and glowing and mystical. I especially like the softness of the lineart and how this looks serene. I think it is a great attempt at the digi colouring!

Thank you!
