Re: When to start coding / commissioning a GUI?

On top of Puppetbomb’s already great advice, I would add my two cents of - generally I see people commissioning GUIs after all of the art is done at least. The production flow with writing and coding vs the GUI is flexible though. GUIs sit on top of all of the art and is the first thing people see, ...

Re: The same CG but with matching MC appearance

I would say pretty much what you’ve described there is fairly accurate. It’s pretty close to the process of drawing sprite art. I would draw the Bg as one whole layer, the character and things that don’t change as another layer (generally a bald and undressed version of the character), then the vari...

Tips to keep in mind when doing character sprite design [Resource]

I thought I would share some tips that I learned over the years about making character art (sprites) and try to demystify character art/sprites a little.

Re: Needing tips & feedback on how to improve this character

My little tidbit of advice I have for shading is from my own experience so take it with a grain of salt. Practice colouring and DO NO BLEND. I know this sounds really weird but hear me out. I found that blending gives you nice soft lighting but is also a bit of a crutch that you think "I can ju...

Re: Mell's Sketch Thread [Requests: CLOSED]

Your line art/sketches are so beautiful. Like...how is it possible? Q.Q I'm curious how long it takes you to sketch/line art? Thank you very much! They are really only that clean because I take time and work at my own pace (since this is also stress relief aha). For a clean sketch I work on one lay...

Really quickly throws this at you before sleep. I don't think I've drawn a badboy character on this thread yet (unless I interpreted wrong), so I took this for a spin ;w; Hope you like it!

Re: bosinpai's art

I completely agree with King-sama actually. Day 10 is the most vibrant/lively while incredibly natural and in my opinion feminine.
That 14 day improvement though-wow!!

Re: Mell's Sketch Thread [Requests: OPEN]

Good game, would ask for chibi if I had the chance. Alas, I must wait for commissions. I think your blooms work well with your chibis. They seem to fit, eh, a cute ly :wink: (good pun... Second thought. Pretty bad) That would definitely be my first order! This is a turn of events I didn't expect XD...
