[QUOTE="Malessa, post: 1299690, member: 4869"] Wow! You did that in photoshop using a mouse? Wholy cow, your lines are so smooth and straight! That is pretty* bleep* awesome! I do all my art in psp, but they start off as blobs. Then after about 50 thousand layers, I have a completed pic, but each thing on my pic has it's own layer or two. Down to right hand on a layer, then arm, one eye, then other, etc. etc. But here is an idea that has helped me alot....is if lets say, one hand or arm, what ever it is that there might be a pair of, you mastered one but not the other. I usually scrap the one that looks terrible and duplicate the one that turned out. then mirror the image, or flip, copypaste as a new layer and adjust size and what not. I've done that to wings on the fire griffen I did, and most people I paint. Another thing is sometimes the leg, arm, what ever turns out great, but the position of it looks off. What I do is select part of it to promote to a new layer, and then play with it in new positions and/or size, then smooth out the part where it may look disected. Then close out all layers EXCEPT what I know will never need to be adjusted again, and merge them together, to get rid of an abundance of layers.......... Just a few tips that work for me, maybe they can help you or at least give you some ideas. ;) Keep up the awesome work, glad to see you branching out to color! Definately keep the pics coming, can't wait to see finished product. :) [/QUOTE]
