I decided to colour the lineart using GIMP.
This is my first time trying to colour a piece like this so any input would be welcomed :)
Had a lot of trouble trying to find a decent skin tone
EDIT: Recoloured to improve the bad choice of colours in places. Skin is less pale now
Holy crap, how in the world did you make that using GIMP?
EDIT: Ah, I see, you used GIMP to color it. The shading seems pretty wonderfully done to me.
Haha, thanks.
Yeah, the line drawing (in another thread) was done before hand.
I just traced that, then coloured it
Although, a lot of it was redrawn, when I had wobbily curves (especially on the shinigami robe) to make it look better
mae, sode no shirayuki :thumb:
If I knew what that meant, I would say thanks :)
nice use of shading. it must have taken awhile to produce that quality of work
It took a few days. Thanks :)
It's Rukia's release command for her Zanpaktou :p
I'm very behind on watching the series, so I haven't got there yet :jess:
Go watch then :p
The eyes should have been fixed before coloring; one is massively wider than the other! It is a simple coloring job and okay, but rather than tweezer that to death, I would rather point out how a person working in a digital medium should be aware of compression! If you look at any part of the image where the line art and coloring meet, you will notice how ugly these edges get; the mouth, collarbone, and eyes are particularly sore spots! Better compression when saving or setting save options which allow for better automatic compression should be looked into; your compositions would look smoother for them, I Don't Need A Name!
Can I just say.
1: I know the eyes aren't the right size, this was done from a drawing, and I didn't want to redraw it.
2: It's the very first time I've ever attempted anything like this, so I have no idea what the smurf compression is!
Ooo cool pic, i love the eye colour. I dont know who it is though, :).
