okay I'm definitely not talented in the least when it comes to drawing. However i still like to do it occasionally. And since i was really bored this past night i decided to do a little somethin.

this is one of my first few fan arts i drew and colored, the main character from persona 3



now obviously its not that great, and an accident with the scanner left a nice large chunk out of his head and i was too scared afterwards to actually color in the skin tone.

So being the bored person i was i decided to throw this bad boy into Gimp and see what i could do. (not much since this is the first time i ever used gimp.)

it's not finished yet but i decided to go ahead and post it anyway. For the lulz



so yeah.


update. . .Completed piece.

Just a little Hint..
If you have the enough Knowledge,Photoshop is the best tool for coloring your Fanarts, Some Outstanding Sick Fanart out there were Handmade and colored in photoshop, and the more you know the better.
Dont worry i know some things in photoshop, and once you understand the real trick of how it works,(Photoshop has Only 1 REAL TRICK), then your fanarts will be Sickly-Cool Dude.

Just in case you want some help advice

I never bothered with image editing tools before, like i said this was the first time i ever even used gimp for anything.

next I'll probably run this one through it. This one i drew looking at a screen cap though i think.

Layers, Dude, Layers, Photoshop real Trick i to know how to handle the Layers.
Multiple layers is what allow the modication of one sector of the image withouth affecting other part of the image...
I Used to watch photoshop tutorials and after analising them for a while, i understanded that The modification of Layers is the real Trick

_________________

Hrm, well, most respectable image editing programs also have the layer function though, which makes it really... not all that special. Sure layers is a great and versatile tool, but at the end of the day, generating an image boils down to your own eye for design, lighting, etc.

Just sayin', learning what you can do with layers is one thing, but application is another. And I can't safely say I'd simplify that to a One Real Trick. >_<
