Artist's Comments

My second copic drawing, except this time I thought Id try the shading with colored pencils. I actually like doing that better since I can control more where the shade goes. The only bad thing is the limited color pallete since Im using crayola 24 pack. >.<
Anyway I also like this one a lot better in real life. My scanner does shitty things in that you can see EVERY mistake. I should get better at manipulating images on PS that way my mistakes go unseen.
Anyway I like this one despite all the flaws and the cake, which looks fake as hell.
BTW I edited this in Photoshop. XD

It looks gorgeous! The colored pencil shading works really well--but try experimenting with wacky colors for the shading. I think it'll turn out even cooler.

NoBrandCon 9 was a great success, but NoBrandCon 10 is going to be even more amazing! Whoooo!

What steps are you taking in Photoshop? Are you using levels?

It looks nice. I can't wait to see what you do next!

whaaaaa... :iconawwwplz: this is sooo lovely! :aww:

the hell with the mistakes.. I :heart: this! You should continue trying with copics imo. I have a feeling that these will look even better than your digital colouring in the very near future. just a few more pictures to go.

When I scanned the picture, I adjusted the brightness and contrast, then I messed with the levels till it looked just right on my computer.
Next I want to do a real edit with ps, not just adjusting things.
Since copics are easier to use, ill be posting more stuff then i did with ps.
PS takes 3x as long. XD

Yeah I get the same feeling. When I look where I started with PS and where I started with COPICS its obvious that my starting point with COPICS is greater.
I definately plan to continue with COPICS. I can put more pictures up since I work so much faster with traditional means.
Thank you so much for the comment. I hope not to disappoint in the future.

Next time, try levels first. Generally, you get better results. You can adjust each color with levels.

Yeah, Copics are WAAAY easier. And faster. They're they best.
