Oooh! *grins* I can see why it took you a bit to recognize her in the drawing
-
Been working some more on colouring CR's Xllusya and decided to put up a little teaser
-
*gently puts a pillow under Cami's head*
Truly awesomeness all over!! *cheers happily*
That is quite the work, girl!
Respect! *nods* -
She is a beauty indeed!
When I glanced at it on DA (the bike really stood out
) I thought it would be another DAZ render.. then I looked at it again and it really wasn't. The bike is really realisticly painted, Henri! You nearly fooled me! *grins*
And no... I'm not persueing 3D modeling. I'm only using DAZ for poses for me to draw.
I have no clue what so ever how to render stuff or create or...whatever people do with DAZ *giggles* -

It was mentioned in the Tips and Tricks topic too.. about a colouring technique going from dark to light? It made me think of something I'm working on...
I saw a video from an inspiring portrait artist on youtube (speedpaint) and got inspired to try it out.
So I've been doing a project colouring something like that aswell. See how that works and stuff... also very good practice in using colours and shades... and for me to be more blunt with them *nods*.
Look what I got sofar! (well...there is more, but since it's a non-CoH related portrait (yet again), I figured I'd place the nose only *giggles*. Afterall... noses áre found in CoH
).
I still use my own technique though, but it was a really good start for me to figure out how to be more blunt with those shades. Hopefully I'll be able to apply it on other projects aswell 
.
Anyhow it's a very fruitfull practice indeed!
*waves* -
Wait... this wasn't made in your 3D modeling tool! That is awesome work Henri!
(then disregard my comment on your DA page *giggles*)
And that is one awesome bike indeed
.
One Early Bird Vote going to Henri! *cheers*, with one more week untill the Early Bird deadline
-
Whatever you want!. Both will do. I'll make sure that everything will be in one place for the voting round .
Hmm, I just checked... it appears we cannot enter entries to the FArt Battle folder just yet. *pouts*
I have already sent Vex a message about that... still waiting reply..so bear with me!
One can post his/her submission in a thumb or a link in a comment on DA for now though.
That will be fine aswell.
-
*giggles* I mean that in a good way!
You are famous afterall
. With your own film and stuff *nods proudly*.
-
I have tried to put up the link as much as possible (and keeping it from turning into spam. By all means! Blame the 21st issue Beta boards!
@Impish_Kat: Ooh short bio's!. That helps with posing and facial expressions . Thanks!
Some of you did give bio's with the pictures. But I also looked at the costumes and went with what they were telling me about the character in question.
Correct me if I'm wrong;
- Medikitty strikes me as a person that knows med-stuff, she can be very serious about that, but on the other hadn she doesn't mind playing doctor *giggles*.
- Red Catman is one of mine, so I know him... he's a bit of a show off, but kindharted, really.
He hasn't been in contact with many girls so, yes, he's very pleased in this picture
.
- Cuwahchoba seems a mystery to me. I have 3 different references and she looks different in everyone of 'm. I chose the one that reminded me a bit of Cat-Woman as I thought it to be best suited for this picture. She strikes me as a shy, but direct person.
She's sweet... as long as everything goes her way. Don't make her angry though. You'll regret it!
- Ellie aka Tiger White... hmm.. yes.. she's Ellie *laughs*. Naughty is actually all I know about her really. But I think she can be serious too. I know she's been through so much drama she'll have to know how to be serious by now *giggles*. I'm still gonna work on her facial expression though. It's not quite.... Ellie-like just yet.
- Sapphic Neko... do I need to say more?
- The Lady Fa Xi another mystery to me. From the reference I have I got the fibe that you don't want to mess with her. She's a keep-to-herself kind of lady and you'll have to make friends with her first to make her stick around.
- Milkshakes seems to me like a bright young lady who likes to daydream.
- Furmirian looks as if he likes to chill out after a hard day of hero-work. He's a cool guy, trustworhty, very kind and huggable (well he's huge so that last part may get you hurt *giggles*) once you sit down with him.
That's what I thought about sofar
@The Fox Rox: You're not used to Milkshakes in white? *grins* now I'm curious! What does she usual where then? Don't worry though... I'm not gonna change her outfit (unless you want me to ofcourse... it can still be done... but once I start smudging it's all settled 
)
@El D: Oooh... you mean Calico has ADHD?
*waves* -
Okay..it's been another while since anyone posted some new tips and tricks here.... but here is another one!
Creating simplistic backgrounds, DeeDee's way
-
Oh good point! I'll put it in there at once!
-
@Chris: Amerikatt will be as in the artz!. Though I'm quite curious what she would look like in humanform...
And indeed Furmi should be bigger if he's 8ft. I'll ponder on that some more. Cheers!
@Neko: Oh, I know dear. But it was no trouble. Want to keep Neko a happy girl, now don't we? *giggles*.
-
Also... Cat People Project update!
-
The update for today! (not saying I'll be updating dayly though)
Been shuffling some characters... I trust Neko will be satisfied now?.
Also, Furmi has been placed to the other side.. he did suit better there (also because I'm really having trouble drawing all those legs and he's a good subject to cover up some *blushes*).
Added Ellie and the mysterious Cuwahchoba... that ís her name...isn't it?
Not satisfied with how Red Catman's hand looks now...but I'll fix that later.
Still have three people from the "list of 10" to add; Amerikatt, Calico Black and Pippin and/or Lokiboi.
After that it's all wait and see for now
-
Hah, yeah... Red Catman is very pleased with himself indeed *giggles*. That is what I was going with.
Woah! 8 ft! Indeed lucky he's sitting down!
Glad you like it sofar, Wildfire.
-
*giggles* I didn't thought it was that rude actually. His hand rests on her hip. For posing that seems quite normal (where I come from, anyway).
But since Neko really isn't into guys... I also figured it might offend her a bit. She would atleast be a bit uncomfortable.
Truth be told... when I was posing them I had this little background story in my head...
He puts his arm around Neko, trying to pull her near and you can tell by the look on her face that she is not pleased about that. She's willing to pose next to him...but not like thát!
She smiles..but that's only on the surface *nods* so she wraps her tail around his leg, ready to smack it really hard against his jewels to make clear she's not appreciating his action.
Ofcourse I can always move Neko *grins*. How about Ellie holding her like that? Will that do?.
About the girl in the pyjama's... I'll have to see about that!
I am having lot's of fun posing everyone on the list in this... I may go overboard and throw every reference I've got in *giggles madly*. -
Which guy's hand?
-
BWAHHHAHA!! Indeed Fireheart! *giggles*
-
Another update!
Been sketching ALOT and put on some basic colouring...
More will be added later on
*waves* -
Putting references won't be something I will stop you from doing.
Sorry for the late....very late... response!
Also I would like to point out... that I put Hidden Hero in the list of 10...but Hidden Hero never put up references *giggles*. Therefor instead of Hidden Hero, Temperous Nox will be on it, as she was next!.
So here's the new and updated list:
Sapphic Neko
Memphis Bill
the fox Rox
Black Wildfire EU
Healix
Amerikatt
Floating FatMan
El__D
Impish Kat
TemperousNox
and I will be putting in one of my own. Because I can!
Further (graphic) updates will be placed ->here<-.

Drat!
See that right there works better than all the backgrounds
I came up with.
Nice work DD. 
. Thanks .
To let you know my "secret"
See? No ques for Dee!Quote:Originally Posted by ChristopherRobin
Yeah there was a line but I skipped her to the front... wouldn't you?
NEXT!

*giggles* I don't think Dee has to stand in any que to get her breast signed
-
Besides doing more drawing on several projects.... I just finished another background to give myself a break from the other projects *giggles*
As I did a background for CR's drawing of Dee, it is CoH related...and that is why I shall post it here
A bubbly pinkish background for Dee!
There is no such thing as too much pink!
-
Soooo I've been working on backgrounds today.
Just some basic backgrounds to start with. I tried detailed backgrounds, but I just can't seem to work that out to my satisfaction...but I'm content for the moment
CoH related example:
And one more, though not CoH related;
The original idea was to paint the full detailed castle on the background...but I will have to do a lot of practice before I'll be able to do so to my own satisfaction. So... I figured...what if I would draw a blurred version of the castle and the trees and stuff..and so I did. It will have to do.... atleast for now.. maybe for ever... who knows!
