Ah, thanks. Decided to work on it more, but I need to go on a hiatus because of AP tests.

Hey thats really cool. hmm does any one know the ethnicity of Casca?

Post by **Starnum** » Sat Apr 22, 2006 5:46 am

Nope, as far as we know she's from Midland like everyone else. Although, it is strange that she has the same type of complexion as the Kushan. There's no telling really.

Ugh my eyes....it.s toooo.....pretty.....Me....want more!

Seriously jac-k, I'm glad you came on this forum. How much time does it takes youn to draw somethink like this? Is it a lot of work?

Post by **jac-k** » Sat Apr 22, 2006 3:30 pm

Well that pic, including the head, took about 2 hrs? It's not a lot of work, that is for a simple pose, since I do a lot of sketches/study anatomy (

), etc.

you've gotten better? I like the red coloring on the eyes, and the yellow stuff on the trees.

Post by **Deathbringer** » Tue Apr 25, 2006 5:18 pm

That picture made me remember that Wyld (sp?) has got to be the only character from a manga which i *really* hated, never been so satisfied to see a fictional character dying.

Post by **Quest** » Tue Apr 25, 2006 5:41 pm

wow, sandman.
you are getting better at it.
there is a marked difference from your previous works.
=)

Post by **Sandman** » Tue Apr 25, 2006 8:55 pm

Thanks for your comments, I would also like to thank Miura for drawing such a cool picture

it was an honor to color it

.... now whats next??

Post by **Starnum** » Wed Apr 26, 2006 11:17 am

Indeed, keep up the good work man. There's only room for improvement. As for Wylde, he was a bastard, but I really enjoyed his fight with Gatts. Oh, and seeing him die brought me great satisfaction as well, heh.

i like the caska pic, it has a very calm mood to it.

Post by **MournfulWoods** » Sun Apr 30, 2006 5:48 pm

I did a bit of photoshopping.

I got a old computer screen though so if the tones aren't dark enough, that's 'cause I see them darker.

Post by **Quest** » Sun Apr 30, 2006 5:53 pm

wow you must have arrived at that from like 5 different sources.

Post by **MournfulWoods** » Sun Apr 30, 2006 5:59 pm

Well the trolls and ogre I took from Volume 25, the background I found on the net in «public domain» sites and the Guts picture is taken from a berserk figurine shop ( a link I found on the Young Animal website). There's also an abstract drawing on the left side. It's a drawing I did and then scanned.

Hmm, I've been thinkin of makin a sig for me on this board. I have some photoshop skillz but little experiance. All I need now is ideas.
Yhea, I don't have crap yet, but if I make something I'll post it here and make it my sig. I figure I'll start off by finding a nice panel from the manga and color it, although I'm also new to that.
Any advice on how to color scans would be much appreciated.

I don't know MournfulWoods, something looks a little wrong with that picture that you posted, to me Guts just doesn't fit in.

Other than that, you do some great work, I'm still trying to master Photoshop.

I don'T really color pictures but I guess you could go in photoshop and change the layer type to «multiply». Then you color on a layer under the panel you chose.

I guess that would be because Guts isn't a drawing like the trolls around. Or maybe it's his stance you don't like ? It's my first attempt at a berserk fanart. I've done better stuff with photoshop.

Post by **SarahofBorg** » Mon May 01, 2006 4:30 am

OK, believe it or not this is the first time I've ever colored a manga scan. I have colored images before though. I chose something cool, and I think I'm gonna make this my avatar

It's not nearly as cool was what I've seen here, so I'd love advice from those who've done coloring with photoshop. I choose something simple with few colors or textures on purpose because I don't have a clue how to do something fancier.

Kewl, eh?

Post by **SarahofBorg** » Mon May 01, 2006 4:37 am

Can some1 help me out? Why does the image look like crap when I resize it to avatar size? What's the best way to resize it with photoshop (I have the settings on "nearest neighbor.") I keep losing too much detail.
[edit] nevermind, it Was that "nearest neighbor" crap. Screw my photoshop teacher, who told me that was the best way.

The Skull looks okay. Needs more contrast. I am not a photoshop expert, so I can't really help ya out. May want to ask Sandman for that noise.

Any way, we have edit buttons. Please avoid double posting. It is one rule we can be pretty anal about here at Mindwerks. When you want to make another post to revive a thread, just copy the old post to the clip board, delete it, then make a new post, paste the old post from the clip board to the new post and put what ever else you have to say on that post. Or just edit your old post considering this thread was not really dead.

Post by **SarahofBorg** » Mon May 01, 2006 5:07 am

hey it's my first time, I thought the skull was more than OK, but I guess in comparison to the talent around here it's nothin special.
Alright, I won't double-post again, just edit the previous post. No big deal, just not used to it.
So what do you mean, the colors should contrast more, or that it doesn't have enough detail? Not sure what you mean, any help is appreciated.
