helm, how large do you work on these?  You say you're using the pencil tool?  in order for that to work, you at least have to scale down to 25%.

[huZba]

It's one of those inspiring moments when you've called all your shots and come to some kind of roadblock and then there it is, another path with lots to learn from. Huge thanks Helm, i'll take this and study carefully.

And then you send me copy of final product yes?

. . . could you post scans of the final product, maybe, if that's not at odds with copyright?

not much more to say except a word of praise.  I really enjoyed the series!

I might make a cbr version, but if you guys ask me to translate everything it's going to be a lot of work, heh. It's like 40 pages of stuff to translate and refitting hand-written dialogue on bubbles is quite a boring work.

20x40 cm at 600 dpi in Manga Studio. REALLY LARGE this means. I do not use photoshop for digital inking.

I am happy to be of service. You help me, I help you. Good karma for all.

Helm: "Mike, who do you think reads our stuff?"
Mike: "my mom does!"

these are pretty hilarious strips, Helm, but I find the lines too fat at this resolution, frankly.

I really dig that chunky style, ptoing, it looks Commodore-influenced.  I cannot find any rational explanation to why you left his ear red, though.  the previous dude, in turn, reminds me of some old American actor, Norman Bates maybe?  nah!

[ptoing]

johnny: Yeh, it sure has some aspects of my chunkfunk style. The read ear is there because I like it that way.

Something I did for an activity on another foRUM!

I want to comment abour the ears so bad - but you seem to be getting enough comments about them   As said of msn, looks great.  Both of them.

a bit of a speed paint for the night.  few hours.  I'm not entirely satisfied with the result, but meh.  I may or may not continue this later...


EDIT:  added reflected light
EDIT2: I realize now that the shoulder pose is pretty much impossible to do.  I'll fix the left shoulder later

[Indigo]
