Dance THANK U! This was half assed Embarrassed,but the insite you've gave was a big help. I can see what youre getting at- the shadows are too sharp and its a strain to do detail with a mouse..god i wish i had a tablet..Anyway, i was going to leave this as a pencil scetch, but decide to color it in less then, what, 2hrs.Thus, the horid coloringSweat Drop. I feel all mushy inside that you would take the time to crit this. I will surelly use your advice in my next piece! And Q: Whats ott?

Sorry ^^; OTT= Over the top ^^ Yeah- anyone that wants crit, I'll give it- it's no problem. As long as you'll use the crit. Colouring with a mouse sucks. All I can suggest though if it does become a birthday gift thing though- Wacom Graphire. Small one. Shouldn't cost much. It's sooooo worth it though! Yes

I'm game if you ever need any more crit. I wont be kind about it, but I try not to be nasty either. Sometimes you just need to know how it stands Yes

      *dies* No way! ^^ That's total LOL stuff!! Big Smile Well, have fun with it- I was there with the whole mouse thing. You'll be more inclined to put effort in with a tablet cause it's easier. Have a practice with it and see your limitations Yes They're good fun ^^

        Thank uSmile. If its not too much of a bother could you clue me into the finer art of using one. Just the basics is what i ask for.. trial and error kind of stuff. i mean your art just has a kind of quirk i was curious if you could skim through the shallow of using the thing Innocent Pweese.
        And it was very ironic that i got a tablet at your cammand!LOL!

          Well... There's no real quick fix with tablets- seriously. It's a digital pencil which makes it ALOT easier to use than an unergonomic mouse. The big thing is that tablet have no texture when you use them. That seems REALLY stupid for me to say, but when you use it, you'll understand. You can feel the pencil scraping lead onto the page. With the tablet, you feel nothing but the weight of your hand on the pen. Picking up the tablet was basic for me- getting use to the texture took ages.

          I suggest oekakis. I joined an oekaki board when I got my tablet and it's the BEST practice Yes Lots of quick easy things Smile Don't live on them, but it'll get you use to working with a tablet rather than a mouse Smile

          Sorry I can't be more helpfull than that ^^;

            Beleive it or not, that bit of info goes miles. I'll keep that it close, thank you. And do crit me harsh- that also goes a long ways, being barelly 15 and not having taken even 1 class in art- its pays to take whatever 'those who know what they're doing' say to heart. Ya Know? WackoImprovement is good.

              Ohhh- I wish someone crited me when I was your age. I'd be alot further ahead with art than I am now. My current style is mostly due to teaching myself. I don't often get usefull crit for improving my style of things...

                  ^^ It's ok. Just that any thoughts you have on my or anyone elses art- no matter how small- air it. Tell them. They may be better, or not better than you, but if they aren't told, they can't improve Yes
