It's my original (fan) character in a snowsuit o.o
gaia's so old and has so many items i could walk into jcpenney and be like 'hm ive seen this on gaia' X3

I was referring to this pic. The sprite in the corner isn't a Gaia avatar? And yes, Gaia is very old. I have like a billion items on my avi, though I have not logged on in like 2 years.

No. I said that was roliana.com :)

Yay! I'm no longer confused. Lol. Sorry for not catching that the first time.

it's okay :3 the concept for both sites is basically the same anyway ^^

just sketching an idea
please forgive me for the very generic pose

thanks again for the tablet Tom! Much love<3

Check your line weight on your inked skteches, sometimes the thickness is all over the place. I'm only saying because i have the same problem and Qbles pointed it out.

I really hate working with lines. I either don't or when I do I vary the line weights so the picture's less boring. I'm trying to hone the skill so I can do it right :B

I vector the lineart with the pentool o.o
i do the sketches with the tablet ^^ already set to pressure sensitivity

I absolutely love this art style, def my fav. Reminds me of zombies calling and scott pilgrim art.

thanks ^.^

Neat. It's coming along really well.

You sketch better than I do lol.

thanks X3

with this lineart, are you using the pen tool, vector lines in something else, or just basic photoshop lines, theyre so clean and smooth and i just cant get it :(

I'm using the pen tool to make vectors. I used to use stroking but it came out too soft...vexelling doesn't allow for resizing to infinity.

I am still inking this motherfucker XDD

It looks great though. You really pull of this style well. It's very clean and fun. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Thank you. I'm glad my new style is a hit. I try to get a lot of butch hartman into it, but I clearly see the scott pilgrim now. I've never known that artist/series before :( I may have seen it once in Border's but never remembered it but subconsciously.

See? Nothing is truly original :D

finally done inking. it looks sloppy now but when I shrink it to a smaller size it won't look so bad.

The lines on her legs are way too thick in comparison to all the lines above them.
Besides that, it's pretty cute. I like the new style, and look forward to you coloring it.

the line on her left arm (our right) is too thick too. I am working on it! :D

You think that's sloppy? HA! You should see my version of "inking" It's so sloppy I have to put air quotes around inking.
