@ Lucian: YOUR LINEART IS SO NOT WEIRD. If yours is
weird, then mine is epic fail. YAY! rofl Wait, so you use photoshop
for everything? Lines and color? o.O; I need to try out painter.
I only have Open Canvas, Photoshop 7, and expired Sai trial. XD

But wow... thanks for that mini tutorial there. O_O Way more
easier to understand than most on DA. lol. I'll try it out. <3

Xero filter called "Porceline"? Is that a feature only in CS2? >_<;

@barokku: Only Open Canvas, Photoshop 7 and an expired Sai? XD I just have GIMP.

[Miss Gizmo]

really really interesting ! 3nodding heart
Thank you for the explanation Lucian ^ ^

[iSaoto]

@ Zeph: LOL. GIMP!! I remember that program! XD
I should re-download that one...

Yeah, I don't paint on photoshop, no clue how to use it.
OC and Sai are both trials. lol. *coughexpired* So yeah,
I can't save on Sai and OC tends to shut down and close
whenever I mouse click buttons. I gotta use the hotkeys if any...

Yeah, everything I do I do in Photoshop. XD

The filter is extra. You can download it for PhotoShop. It's actually called "Porcelain" (I made a mistake). ^^

Scroll down the following page until you get to the "Plugin Sets".
These are free filter sets compatible with PhotoShop.
You'll want:

xero : filter set 1 (Rel 4 - Apr 2007) : 9 filters
Includes: Alien Mist, Greyscaler, Greytinter, Lithograph, Mistifier, Moonlight, Porcelain, Seasons, Skycleaner

That will give you that pretty filter. After install, you should find them in the filters tab under "xero".

Thanks again for the lovely replies all! heart

And Christmas_chan, I only need to pay for my DA... because I leave my messages pile up like a TARD. LoL... With the pay account you can see the thumbnails of art before to click, plus you get way more art per page... It just saves me a huge amount of time when I come back after I hiatus. rofl. XD
Plus, I don't like the ADs. My computer has a chuggy internet connection already. lol ^^

[Christmas_chan]

rofl you should like......watch less ppl?
I check my DA almost every day I think, messages never pile up, except from time to time I get weirdos faving my entier gallery scream ( like today ) I don't see the point, why not fave just one or 2 and go back to the artist's gallery??? *sigh*

[slaphappy survival]

I'd call it an honor to have someone fave my entire gallery. XD I don't get them too much; I still have lots of room for improvement. At least I can like doing art for my own enjoyment.

Oh man if I could ever afford your stuff I'd be on it so fast. *o* heart

SORRY EVERYONE!
This is a quick post to explain a turn of events...

I cannot work over the next month or so...
This is because I was hired as a temporary artist at the game company "Bitcasters". Thanks to my wonderful friend.
I AM STILL finishing everyone's commissions.. but due to deadlines at the job, I won't be available for about a month. It's sort of a last minute emergency.
I'm really sorry for the waiting inconvenience.

But GOOD news, is that I'll be getting A LOT of colouring practice. So when I finally get back to my Gaia work, I'll be able to make everyone's commissions look even better.

Thanks so much for the comments.
I'll try to come back and check this thread as much as possible. I just can't be on Gaia much until all the artwork for my job is done.

Edit: I did start the skin colouring on Keiisah's art. IMO, it looks quite nice so far... Which is a big deal.. because I am grossly self-critical.

Hang in there everyone. Much apologies.

[Lucian Kujaku]

Also.. (if it has not hit everyone in the skull yet)... I suffer from a hideous lack of self confidence.. combined with obsessive perfectionism...

I was literally moved to tears with happiness when I was called with this job offer.
Everyone here means a lot to me. Don't think I'm running off.

This is simply the very first job I've ever landed in my field as an artist, and I am so unbelievably honoured. ;_;

I cannot let my great friend and the director down. It means a lot to them.
But not only to them, to my own future as well. This is a big deal to my portfolio and all else related.

*big hugs to everyone*

I promise to be back ASAP!

I can understand; take your time. 3nodding

Good luck on the job ! And we hope to see you soon ^___^
