posted this on another forum so i thought i might recycle the link. practice/experiment. OpenCanvas doesn't like me, so Gimp again, for now. but i'll still keep trying to master it, in due time d:
@metalica: you might want to try Polykarbon. some useful tutorials there. the site itself hasn't been updated in awhile, but the forums are nice and active.
A little birdy in the sky
Dropped a poopie in my eye
I did not scream, I did not cry
But thanked the Lord that cows don't fly!
[02:49] <Komi> How is Dysfunctional Systems coming along?
[02:52] <Doomfest> have you seen prince of egypt

A chara design drawn with a ball pen. If I messed a little, I'd have had to redraw the whole sketch (that was my challenge for today).
Sorry, it's not colorized yet (if I color it one day...)
mugen: Die monster! You don't belong in this world.
Haha! I bow before superior forces. You are the master lolicon perv
Awww... and I went through all the trouble of coloring this again just in case you didn't notice.
How do you make your games? I see. Thank you for the prompt replies, but it is my considered opinion that you're doing it wrong inefficiently because I am a perfushenal professional. Do it my way this way and we can all ascend VN Nirvana together while allowing me to stroke my ego you will improve much faster. Also, please don't forget to thank me for this constructive critique or I will cry and bore you to death respond appropriately with a tl;drrant discourse of epic adequately lengthy proportions. - Sarcasm Veiled in Euphemism: Secrets of Forum Civility by lordcloudx (Coming soon to an online ebook near you.)
Samu-kun's ship kakkoiii~ . Woah... how do you even *begin* designing such things anyway? ^^; Do you randomly add pieces, or do you draw a plan first? o_o
Mmm... I don't really have the technical skills to sketch out my models before I work on them. XD Mm... What I do is just think of the most distinguishing feature of a ship (in this case, the split mouth and the four cannons) and then I just keep adding more stuff that I think looks cool. XD It gets out of hand pretty quickly. Whenever there's a big white spot, I try to add weapons, engines, and other random thingies. I also mirror parts very frequently. The entire ship is pretty much four mirrored pieces that have been put together, with just some minor details added to each part. Also, if there are ship parts that I like from other media, I tend to steal them and add them to my own ship. ^_^ (The elevated bridge was stolen from General Grevious' flagship in Star Wars Episode III... I thought it looked really cool! ^_^)
(That's only the front half of the ship, by the way. I haven't gotten to the butt yet. XD)
