Hi, it has been quite a while since I was here, I have some free time so I thought I'd show my new wall, it's
not yet complete but it's on the right track. I call it the "Serpent's Fang" and it's a Sasuke wall, so I hope Sasuke
fans will like it. Also please give comments and criticism, thanks.

I'll vote for sakura-chan but probably sasuke or Kakashi will win.

Ok, here's some more progress, made some changes considering on what you guyz said so click the link below and knock yourself out!

Hi there, this is a vector of sasuke, actually 80% of the vectoring is finished what I really want is your opinion on the color scheme.
I have here two color schemes for you to check so I hope I'll get some good feedback, enjoy.

Sasuke color test

Hey thanks fluke, I also had the same problem and I never really used the "purge all" button, heh.

Hi here're my Naruto walls and artworks

Gaara of the Sand

Uzumaki Naruto
Uchiha Itachi

Orochimaru
Itachi Doujin
Orochimaru Vector
Gaara Vector
Orochimaru Doujin
Naruto vs Akatsuki

That's all I have for now but I have some more Naruto vectors in the works so I'll add them as i finish them.

I use the Adobe bridge which is a neat little appliction which is bundled with Photoshop CS2, I could catagorize and rename whole batch of images with any name I want.

Well... I opened it up in Photoshop made a new layer repainted over the text and used the blur tool to blend the colors in... oh and thanks.

Here's the image, I've worked on it somewhat but I don't think this image is good enough to use in a wall coz it's low quality but hey let me know what you think.

Pencil and watercolor is my favorite natural media but I use Photoshop and Illustrator mainly these days coz like Plainwhitepaper said the "undo" feature is a real timesaver.

You could upload it to imageshack or photobucket and just paste the link in this thread, maybe I could even fix it for you.

Thanks for sharing your experiences, yeah the mesh tool is great for creating complex gradients but its a little time consuming and confusing at first but your tips should help start it of in the right direction and thanks again.

Practice drawing an apple or any other natural object cause mostly all natural objects have curves, try drawing by looking at images of fruits for example, they are simple and easy to draw or and did I mention the apple?
Practice makes perfect!

Could you be a little more clear on what you're trying to do or could you show the image oyu're trying to fix.

If you have a Digital camera you can get somebody to pose for you or anatomy books are good for referencing too and having some basic knowledge of the human anatomy will do you good.

FF5 is one of the toughet games I have played and Xenogears as pretty challenging too.

I really like Anime/game OST's, infact I listen to more anime/game music than any other kind, call me crazy but hey that's just me.

That's a cool painting, good job and congratulations to your team.

Cool scan! thanks for sharing though it got deleted, I hope you have better luck next time.

Ok, here's an update on the image, just thought I'd wanted to make this image in two styles, one with vector shading and one colored in photoshop. I'm working on a smaller image for the one I'm doing in PS right now, just to get the values and lighting right and thought I'd share it with you guys, so give me feedback on this one too.

Sakura-hime

Since Ukitake is surrounded by fire you should brush in some of the background color on him which will blend the two layers in much better and I think a little blurring here and there on the bg would be good too.
Below I have the same image, I edited it a little(hope you wouldn't mind), hope this helps.

Hi and sorry for the late reply.
I think you have a good imagination but you have a long way to go if you want put them on paper.
The character sure has a menacing look but the proportions are wrong, the tail is much larger than the head and neck and looks somewhat unnatural. If you want to create a cool and convincing character which is totally original then you should first learn
how to draw the natural stuff, a good way to do this is to learn human anatomy which will be helpful when drawing other animals too.
Since you've drawn a dragon like character it would have been a good idea to look at pictures of dragons as well, since using reference is the best way to learn and refine your skill.
Well I hope I've been of some help to you.

Hi, just working on this new vector of sakura-chan and don't let the title of the thread fool you, this isn't ecchi or hentai, at least I don't think it is.
Well I'm doing this from scratch, yes my friends it means I'm not using any scans, I'm not tracing over but rather using some reference
mainly for the pose and the cloths.
I'm thinking of making a wall with naruto,sasuke and sakura but they would be all grown up like you see in this image and I want it to be pretty cool too! still there's a lot of work to be done.
I got the inspiration from a scan in MT (Minitokyo.Female.Scans.Naruto_206296) and btw I'm using the scan for the cloths reference too.
Oh... nearly forgot, I need a mod to comment on this one cos I would like to submit the finished vector in the gallery( since the cloths are a little revealing).
Comments are most welcome and please give any good ideas so I can make the final image better.

Sakura-chan

Hi everyone this thread is totally outdated!
I've finished the vector took me long enough, so check out my gallery for the completed version, thanks!
