Dang, you 3 are quick!
Ok...I gotta go to a dentist appointment atm, but I have a cool idea for LoV for Thor which I'll start on when I get back.
Also, MarDun, if you could get a lighter screenie of...MarDun, I'd apperciate it because the ones you posted show up a little dark on my computer
And All-American Lad....I have a cool idea for what to do with your piece aswell.
Now, Off to the Dentist!!! *flys away*

Thanks MarDun, those show up alot clearer on my computer.
As for the MS Paint thing...I tried it on the drawing of LoV and it's not gonna work....The colors (even when I used the fill tool) would just show up in small blotches inside of the lines, not even filling out the shape.
Heres Lord of Valhalla
I'm still up to draw all the characters, but the MS Paint part wont work out. I can color them with colored pencils though (ironicly), which I'll finish up on LoV later.
Sorry bout MS Paint

You know there are freeware art programs you can use, like GIMP and somesuch, good alternatives to simple ol' paint. :P
Thanks, I'm checking out the GIMP site right now, so I might just have it up and running later on my computer sos I can finsih up the pieces.
Thanks again!

Yeah, GIMP is a good alternative to MS Paint. Well, pretty much any paint program is a good alternativ to MS Paint. MS Paint is like notepad, and things like Corel Painter, Photoshop, and GIMP is like Microsoft Word. Except that analogy isn't accurate either. The sheer power and kickass of Painter, PS and such is so incredible. Most people don't even use all the options contained within their proverbial ice berg tips.
PS, and yes, If you have a cool $300 or so to burn, I suggest getting Photoshop or Painter. I recommend getting a trial first and seeing which one you perfer. They are different, and are intended to be used for different things.
Ok....I had an idea on using MS Paint to color in a drawing after I've drawn it in pencil and inked it with a pen/marker and filled in all the lines. I thought this might work out pretty well from two reasons...
1) I dont have any other computerized coloring program (although I have a HP photoshop thing, I have no idea if I can make it color stuff) so at the moment, its the best thing I have.
and
2) My coloring skills with pencils/markers are...well...they arnt that good. I mean, I could color something decently, but you would probably be able to see some scribble lines in it.
Ohh...And the first three people to respond (and include screenies) will get pictures done of their characters (only note is wings....which I cant draw well...much less color)
Thanks for reading!
