Those look really cool! I have no clue how to make 3D things. xD

I'd like some suggestions for a picture I'm working on. It's two winged wolves circling each other, separated by the sun and the moon.


Are there any balance issues besides the empty space in the bottom right? Are the poses awkward? Perspective? Should the sun be in the front or the back?

Looks great so far global-wolf, only critique I'd have is that empty space on the right. It makes the picture look left orientated, I'm not sure what's the best approach to fixing it tho.
Looks like that would be fun to colour...

Also just to recap...

This thread. Wolves.

I just finished my playthrough of Okami last night (that game is godly), plus the last thing I saw before I logged off yesterday was your wolf sketch :laugh: As soon as I figure out how to embed music I can add ridiculous Star Wolf music to this page.

In the meantime though I wanted to ask if anyone was interested in this.

Fusion Comic. It's awesome but we sort of ran out of people and it died before. :'( But I always wanted to get it up and running again.

If we were to do that, I think you should simply start a new topic with an TC who you know comes in often enough to edit the OP.

That, and come up with a new character that doesn't look so , , , can I say stupid? lol

I'd feel weird drawing that woman.

Thanks so much for calling my character stupid.

I don't think the OP is a problem, I can change the person in charge of the OP. I don't really see the need for a new thread since that one only has 4 pages, it's barely started.

People can always add new characters/get rid of old ones from time to time if they really don't like them. That's the beauty of a fusion comic, after all.

Ah, I didn't know MODs had that power. Makes me want it even more.



Sorry for calling your character stupid. Didn't want to insult you. Just, that firey hair on that brown skin is too much difference in contrast it hurts. But, I'll see what i can do.

I'll be drawing my Falco tomorrow, in the meantime.

That fusion comic seemed like a really cool idea, but I'd be hard pressed to finish it in a week, I'd get nervous.

I'm almost done with my Toon Link comic, I'll post it up tomorrow or on Wednesday.
It looks even better than I expected it to, so I'm really happy.

Well, it doesn't necessarily have to be a week. I know it takes time for something to look good, the time limit was there to avoid keeping people waiting in line, but we never got a whole lot of people anyway. I took like 5 months to complete my section LOL. I think we can shorten it/lengthen it if the need arises (nothing like 5 months though...).

I need to get some serious work done on my Ness... thing. Whatever it may be.

In retirement of smash.
Done, my final draft is in the AESA, (and I put my peach drawing in there too for you guys to look at as well :D even though the kirby one is my offical drawing). Also we could just do the comic in here.

Here's a coloured version of the communication failure, I posted a few a while back:



Also, got my piece posted in the AESA thread too.

I wanna say place more lighting on his face, bro. That, and his lips irk me. Reminds me of a Bleach habit Kubo has, and many other anime, where the mouth is place dam near the outline of the face.

Good pohotshop work, though. Coloring is fine, but I'm interested in your method of shading. Also, your works feel like they have some sort of gradient mask over them.

I love the shading and lighting. It has a very distinct style to it. I think if I came across any of your work randomly on the internet, I'd know it was from you right away.
I really really wish I had photoshop. I know I keep saying that but **** it

LOL what does that even mean.

By the way, GIMP is freeeeee. I hear it's not bad as a PS alternative.

This music is gonna put me to sleep. Was Dissidia good? I heard it was good.

Edit: Sorry Zephron, completely overlooked your post. >:V We'll do Zelda next page. Most Zelda games have a pretty beast soundtrack.

Zolga, haven't seen you around here in like a year.

For digital painting, just use a spatter brush and I think it helps to have it on a relatively low opacity like 15-25%. That makes it easier to blend colors and junk (for me anyway), so you get good color harmony.

I've either been busy with AiB stuff(Moderation related things + Content Team + Graphics Team + Playing Smash cause it's fun) or Life in general.

I took a long break from graphics and stuff for a while. I took a couple traditional art classes in school this(last?) year and that rekindled my love for Art of all forms. So yeah. I'm going to be around here more often. I mean this is where I started WAAAAAAY back when I made those ****ty sigs and we all flooded the Giant Sig Shop with like 15+ sig makers. Good times.

Loool I remember that. Back when the Sig Shoppe was the busiest place here and there were a bunch of shops open.

It's pretty much a wasteland now.

Neon Ness is the best mod ever.

He wrote the mod book.

I want to be like him when I grow up.

Man, I saw my name and got worried. Then I saw the word "infracted" and was like "Oh god, what did I do?"

Glad it wasn't anything bad.

Cool as hell, always. neon Ness. :laugh:

DeviantArt has a bunch. Resources and Stock Images > Application Resources > GIMP brushes.
GIMP can also use PS brushes.

Quickie Post. I honestly think that in the next SSB Ness is gonna be replaced. Not to be negative or anything, I'm just sayin'.

And hopefully It'll be by this guy.

If anyone is kicked it will be Lucario. Trust me they will put in a new pokemon. Also Ness can't be kicked out. He was in the smash 64 game. Personally I am hoping that Lucario will get replaced by AMPHAROS!
