Meet Me!

bleh Xp some bits look really flat :/ the right circle shoulder and the left one not sure what I could've done to make it look a little more 3D :/

Anybody know the process of making a effective glowing obeject? I'm planning to make the center chest glow or look like a ball of flames and the eye piece.

Bleh my lame photoshop skills Xp

ps. Lucky I had Photoshop6 in my second drive! because 7's serial number has expired, don't ask why :/ think it may be Adobe's way of stopping piracy

I think thats a kick ass drawing! Very clean, and the sphere you can just fix in photoshop anyway I'de think?

Can't wait to see it colored, though I don't really have any advice. I can do decent looking glowing orbs, but your probably aiming for somthing more complex.

very sweet,the spheres like he said
and the white area would look better in black (the area where the legs should be)

Effective glowing object eh? I'd draw in the flames or whatnot, then colour the lines red, or blue or green or whatever, then fill in the interior with brighter red/blues/greens, getting to an almost white state nearer towards the center. I can picture it, but can't explain it well >_<
Or just look at other people or existing effects, and try to mimic them with a little airbrushing, bluring, filtering and so on.

Looking great so far tho Shirai

Hye thanks for the replies~ I'm trying to colour... well did try to colour after I got annoyed and started eating the mouse.

Keith I'm glad you think it kicks ass XB an I'll give it a shot at fixing the sphere thanks :3

tuigi sweet X3 I might consider having a dark black background but that would kill most of the lineart, maybe it'll come to me when I get to that stage Xp

AKATT Yeah! X3 it is indeed a hovering skull n bones :3 but I really hope it does get finished and not scraped halfway through. Wish me luck XB

Bomu Yo I can see what you mean, I should've tried experimenting instead of thinking of how to do it >_< I've started looking around for the effect I'm looking for :3 shouldn't be too hard if I dive into elfwood's galleries Thanks for the tip~

Not too sure when I'll finish colouring it, since I am pretty slow at cg u_u

Thankyou and Goodnight~

a good start for glowing things is to look how it is made with text efx.

btw. a great drawing maybe i try to color it sometime (if you dont mind).
