everybody knows tracing isn`t art, it`s fun, i`ll grant you that..but it does not require any particular skills or ability or anything for that matter, a 2 year old could do it.

SO insted of tracing easy pics that take somewhat of a second ( like that green guy or the last couple of posts) try and put some effort and do something liek acerbic did with the suzuki some time ago...

otherwise... it`s just a waste of time dont`cha think?

</disguised rant>

long post, anyway, i only trace detailed pics that take a while anyway, but i agree, if it doesnt take a while its not fun, and i spend alot of time on the color aswell, so mine may be classed as art, people say that i color well.

you can improve by not drawing 50 cent...and learn how to blend colours together

the nose and the teeth are traced with lines, use the brush tool.Also, use the smudge tool to blend the color together.

Tracing is not art, it's stealing. Stop it, people. You're just showing how much of a failure you are as an artist.

well... the tracing most of us are doin is close to stealing, but it's good practice.
also, one needs tracing to import from real life drawings into our favorite digital media. (ya kno, draw, scan, trace, shade?) it's the long way for us who don't have a tablet to draw with.

(least we're not using <trace bitmap>)
