Re: My first profile

Its very good but it looks like there is a chris-cross effect in the colours? Did you use a pencil filter on it? Also needs more shade underneath to give a good 3D effect, otherwise very good

Re: My first profile

Yes there is a sort of criss-cross effect on it, its a little more visible on the other version I have of it, I in******ently gave my profile a "cartoonish" quality to it, so I tried to apply a filter that would make it as though it was printed on comic book paper. Here is the other version, with the different background:

Re: My first profile

You know this is as bad as skinning once you have been bitten?
Be careful.

Re: My first profile

Yeah I noticed it was as bas as skinning. I started looking all over for blank line drawings of planes to do.

Actually I think this kind of thing can actually help me with skinning. Because here, I learned about lighting and shading, something which I only use sparingly in my skins.

About the shade though, I dont want to add too much, as the profile is already pretty dark. Maybe I should ad a filter to lighten it up some?

Re: My first profile

Very cool thanks. I notice that even though it is there, its quite subtle. I also notice you got rid of some of the black lines, especially around the canopy, it does make it look a little nicer. I have to ask how you did that though?
