Re: Amorphous's Art Thread

And yet another month has gone by. Probably just me switching too much between art and music and programming to be healthy. Took the rough design of the guy from the previous post, made a whole body sprite for him along the way - although I did manage to change his face / hair quite a bit. Also gav...

Re: Getting rid of Artblock?

What I tend to do if I get an artist's block in the case of procrastination of finishing sprites and what not for a project, I jump onto a different creative train and start writing up ideas for a new story, or pick up an old one that I feel deseves a bit of attention, that ususally gets the creativ...

Re: Ipad artists help (or pretty much anyone)

I've never used an Ipad to draw out anything, and I know from experience that drawing with your finger is a quite the difficult task. So like the others I'll recomend replacing it. I found this blog that contains a few apps you could get for the Ipad so check it out it includes links to reviews of t...

Re: VanillaPenguin's Art thread, (opinions needed!)

It's probably a couple things, and yeah, more evident in the girl then the guy. The head is probably too much on the large size, but the main thing is the relationship of the proportions. Her legs are as thin as her arms If you look at yourself you'll see that that isn't quite how it works. o.o who...

Re: VanillaPenguin's Art thread, (opinions needed!)

The only thing bugging me is the anatomy. Although I know with the anime style, unrealistic proportions are ok, your characters look a little to skinny in some areas :/ Thank you for pointing that out, I've noticed that to be a common thing I do in my art (my proportioning leans more on the lankier...

Re: VanillaPenguin's Art thread, (opinions needed!)

Good brands are W&N (Winsor and Newton), Isabey, da Vinci, Talens. I prefer the W&N's because of the length of the handle. Thank you so much! I will put what you said to good use. And I think I'll look into the W&N brand as well. I'm always on the look out for new inking pens to experie...

Re: VanillaPenguin's Art thread, (opinions needed!)

Keep doing it by hand. Why? Well, you're in the production process now and you're used to doing it by hand. Switching to doing it on the computer will take time to get used to. I've never gotten used to it. I got a Cintiq but I still draw by hand (I trace stuff on the Cintiq though, I've taped a pe...

Re: Recruiting: Character Artist/Partner for Sci-fi/Thriller

It might be a good idea to post an example of the kind of art that you're looking for to make the job of seeking an artist easier.

Re: Would you play interactive Manga?

I was thinking of the same idea a few days ago. I've never heard of a visual novel integrated with a manga. But Kinetic novels, you might find something there. Try playing Trauma Team (Nintendo, Wii), it's not VN, but I definitely think that it's similar to the idea you were explaining. In my opinio...

VanillaPenguin's Art thread, (opinions needed!)

Hello to all those of you who are reading! I just started creating the artwork for my game, and so before I did any inking and coloring, I'd like to get an opinion on what I should do. So...
