very nice, people!

I decided I wanted a more stylised feel to my piece so I left painting in favour of a wood-cut look (which o'viously isn't quite finished yet )



hand fail >.<"

Haha lol, pentool ftw xD No idea what you mean with a woodcut look (I know how things cut in wood look but I can in no way link that with this ) but I think it will be nice. Such a shame you didn't move on with the prev one though, your brushstyle + those dragons = pure win ^^

I absolutely enjoy looking all the updates here. Don't think I can make it to the deadline but my omens commission is Canthan themed. If omens approves I can put it as an entry if I make it through the deadline =p.

You get a hug and eternal glory

But on a serious note, no there will be no price that all participants get. Though if there will be more donations I can make more awards, leading to a bigger chance to win a prize.

EDIT:

Another Progression picture from my side. Opinons needed: Shall I give the boy a tradition chinese costume (like the red one in the first picture) or a more Dragon Ball Z martialarts costume (like a little bit in this wip)?

Whoops, in fact that wasn't what I understood Tommy's. It's not the pen tool! I don't know what is its name in english, but it's this one:


Well, here's the last one. I won't have time to make something better, so I prefer to post it now, than not posting it at all.

IWANTTOENTER! D:
Artist Name: Zav
Artworks Name: Behind the scenes



EDIT: to not be off topic, I'll answer you here Tommy's. I draw with a 6 pixel brush. The original size of the drawing could be x1.5 or x2. Not that big ^^
Indeed I do ctrl+z a lot!
I try to make one line by one tablet pen move. If the line is not the one I like, I can ctrl+z more than 20 times

Haha very nice Lili. Ok so now you really shocked me, I fail so hard at getting smooth lines with a brush. You get them so nice, at what size do you draw? You erase and ctrl-z alot?
