I'll be spending some time today making a separate post for animations. My request options are getting confusing again -_____-

Araiia · May 16, 2011, 10:15 PM // 22:15

Two more commissions completed!

Commander Shifty: (full version has transparent BG)

You mentioned that you were going to use it for a forum sig.. what are the max dimensions allowed for sigs on your forum? I made a sample sig template, but its 200 pixels tall and I'm not sure if that's too big. fitting a full body vertically into 100 pixels is hard D:

King Kitto:

"GUAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!"

also in this post: lots of blindfolds

Atro · May 16, 2011, 10:48 PM // 22:48

Very nice haha, I'll be able to pay your later today

.

-EDIT- Paid, thanks very much Araiia, now I got a nice new avatar

Warvic · May 17, 2011, 03:49 PM // 15:49

A brief break from commissions to draw some personal art.
I have this problem where I always draw my own chars as being less expressive than other peoples' chars. I'm trying to overcome that...

Aycee · May 19, 2011, 07:29 AM // 07:29

Your art is awesome =D. Can't wait for my new avi to get put into use.

Aww, that's cute! I haven't seen the 'tween' option on my version

I'm guessing PS elements doesn't include it D: I'm guessing it smooths out the transitions, which is really nice! I totally know what you mean about wanting to do more frame by frame stuff

I wish animated GIFs weren't so limiting

Others have suggested flash, and I guess there're always movie files like for quicktime, but that would mean a loooooooot of frames to draw and manage though...

Have you seen this person on dA yet? http://bronzehalo.deviantart.com/ I really love his/her animated GIFs

After seeing one of those pieces, I drew Aero's animated walking GIF.

BlackXI · May 26, 2011, 04:41 PM // 16:41

Bah.

I'm back again, after oversleeping and being unproductive, a month of raising a baby lovebird, piano camp, and (currently) a 12-day trip to Peru which will be over in 2 days. It's been a busy time in which I've only managed to draw a few personal works.

The trip has been very different from my past vacations and I think I'll be sufficiently inspired to draw for quite some time upon my return to the US on July 25th.

As stated in my original post, if you made a request at the end of my last active period (or while I was away from Guru) and are still interested in art, please say so - so that I may update my waitlist with current info.

I will be sending forum PMs to everyone on the waitlist about this.

My art style has shifted a bit again and I'm considering some more changes to this thread to accomodate that. I'll post some more after the trip. (Not sure how active Nolani is these days, I'm kind of out of the loop again.)
