Well you can use the poylgonal lasso to select spots to erase.

and you can auto-level an image to make pencil lines darker.

or you can make a new layer over it and trace your old picture; that works best with a tablet..

One thing i recommend is not not smooth every kind of shading because it makes it clash.

On example on what I mean and how it can make things look better I'll show u a recent cg i applied.




Here did use smooth and blurry shading but also did some harder (but blurry shading) like in the hair and parts of the clothing.

What really defines a good cg (and this arguable) is the good usage of shading and lighting.

And here's a cg from a pro o.o



Now focus on shading and lighting... see how cool it all makes it ;.; it makes my eyes watery.

But nevertheless, good enough for a start I'll tel u that.

--

Even if anime is not your style of art i do believe some of the lighting/shading effect do I apply unless you would want to make your own style

I usually draw cartoons so I usually just color with cel shading, but one way to color I know of is if you set your lineart to Grayscale then set the layer to multiply, you just add colors in on layers below the penciled lineart. I believe thats what robotam did.

Post by: InsaneJP on January 30, 2006, 03:21:04 AM

Title:
Post by: drenrin2120 on January 30, 2006, 03:24:49 AM

Well, the coloring is still good. lol, and plus, it just means that arm thing wasn't your fault, so it's still cool in my book.

Post by: Revolution911 on January 30, 2006, 03:26:57 AM

Naw, that's a good drawing. I mean the Adam dude, maybe it's his eyes or something. It still looks good, just something that I thought was odd.

Post by: coasterkrazy on February 23, 2006, 02:29:10 AM

I can't really critique art too well, since I'm awful at art (unless it's horrible, which yours isn't), so I'll just say great job! It's a hell of a lot better than I can do! :D

Title:
Post by: Tomi on February 23, 2006, 02:54:46 AM

Awesome!  Did you draw those too?

Post by: drenrin2120 on February 23, 2006, 03:02:48 AM

what do you guys think??

Title:
Post by: carmen on February 23, 2006, 08:26:57 PM

i like the character.

Maybe add some more detail? just little stuff to give him more "character" you know? for what he lacks in face emotion, you'll have to make up in something else.

colorings good. You'll only get better if you keep at it

Title:
Post by: InsaneJP on February 24, 2006, 03:04:55 AM
