Drawings from the starving artist!!! [NEW UPDATE!!!]

[Klingeth]

@ Aku: Ohh yes :3 umm however I cannot view the pic or link D: it apparently has been deleted, moved or renamed.

[aku_tenshi-san]

Kling: woops...well it's fixed now...lol...it's not a very good photo to begin with...but i was wondering what people thought of my first photoshop job (like this at least...lol...)

[Klingeth]

Ah I see it now o.o hmmm. DId you add any highlights/glows to it? o.o or the shadowing? *is tryin to pin point out what the edits could be if there are some* o3o

Also yes I love looking at interesting outfits :3 helps me with my own. and i collect some magazines, but most of em were given to me.

And yep hehe xD I need to work on aaaaart <3

[aku_tenshi-san]

not really, though i did mess with the hues a little...lol... ^_^ i'm glad that it looks pretty seemless...maybe in a little bit i'll post a before and after image so you can see all that i did...(but we'll see...)

yeah, i think that the costumes/high fashion that you would never see on the street are a lot of fun too...and they deffinately help stir the creative juices... ^_^ i don't own too many magazines...and sometimes i will steal my mom's Vanity Fair, but sometimes i will take a look at the magazine racks in the book store.

yup! and how did that pic of your avi turn out? did you ever finish it?

[Klingeth]

Oh ok xD haha well I was wondering about the colours as well. I think thats what made me think of light & shadows etc. But okee owo I'd like to see it once you do it.

And yeh :3 they have such interesting outfits etc. hehe. Well I have a lot of Grazia magazines as it solely for the purpose of Fashion.

Also the pic, I'm still working on it. ^^ just opened the file recently and am lining the pic.

[aku_tenshi-san]

lol...well, we'll see if i post it just because it's one of those crapy reference pictures i was talking about...(i was using it to try and design clothes for myself and it didn't really work out well...lol...) plus i'd like to see if Luna has an opinion about the finished product before i reveal the "before" image...lol...

that's cool...i'm not too familiar with Grazia though...(it looks like a kinda generic gossip/fashion magazine from what i can see on google though... ^_^ )

that's cool...i'm so jealous of you and Luna because you have the patience/skill to make nice line art...all of mine just looks sketchy/incomplete because i run out of patience...lol...

[Klingeth]

Ah ok :3 fair enough then. I'm sure we'll just have to wait and see from Lunaaaa <3

Also yeh o3o it is a generic sort of fashion magazine, but I like it <3 hehehe. It comes out every week but I dont buy it every week only when I am interested in the cover and the contents.

And lols xD I just be patient cos it has to be done.

[aku_tenshi-san]

^_^

oh, ok...i tend to not buy magazines partially because i'm broke and can tend to find what i want on the internet and partially because i'm a bit of a pirate...lol...(i have actually gone in and taken photos of things that i liked from books that don't belong to me...mainly textures from those scrap-booking background paper book-things lol, but still...they're really nice to have to use in photoshop... ^_^' )

lol...yeah...that's partially why i tend to not draw too much with lines though, that way it doesn't have to be done...lol...if you notice the ver.1 vs. the ver. 2 of the drawing drawing itself you'll see what i mean...i litterally re-drew the middle in the second version because i didn't feel like smoothing out the lines all the way in the first...(which is technically a lot more work...lol...) plus, i'm not that good at inking...*sigh*...

[Lunasumerin]

hmmm well besides looking a little bit plastic-y the shadow is what makes it obvious to me that you photoshopped that picture.

[aku_tenshi-san]

ironically, the shadow was like that for the most part in the original too...because of the flash...

[Oo Midnight Memories oO]

argh im melting x.x

[Lunasumerin]

lol XD that's amusing XD

awww poor Kimmi.. is it hotter today?

[aku_tenshi-san]

Luna: yeah...here, this is the before and after shot:

you see...the shadow is about the same...(though there are some tell-tale things in the after image that you can tell it's photoshoped...lol...) it's amazing what you can do with photoshop...*god i love that program*...

Kimmi: oh no! stay with us! *sets up a fan and sits you down on a large cube of ice*...you do not want to know where i got that from...

[Lunasumerin]

wow... that's really interesting
photoshop is pretty amazing

[aku_tenshi-san]

lol...sorry for posting such a picture...*slightly embarassed*...

yeah, i definately agree...it's kinda scary what you can do with it...just because between that and the internet you could completely change who you are...but i guess that's part of the draw too...lol...
