Description Here's a color version of the Flylady. Ever since originally drawing this picture, it's been screaming at me to color it. So now, 12 years later, here it is.

This is the first time I've ever tried using a thicker line as an outline. I quite like it.

Inked and colored in Photoshop CS2.

But if you look past all that, she has a fun, breezy personality. Not so great of a kisser though.

Probably, as long as it's not a roller-disco.

Never seen "The Fly." This was completely coincidental.

That is, I like the fact that they are there, not that I like the earrings themselves.

Heh, yeah I think they really help to sell the image. Those, and the bracelet.

I must agree with you there, they do indeed "sell" it.

Impressive shading!

I also like how you colored in the drink, I'll have to remember that for future reference...

When you colored this in, what resolution did you have the picture set to?

AzraelleWormser In reply to tbolt [2007-08-10 23:48:27 +0000 UTC]

I always work with the original picture in some ridiculously huge resolution. This serves several purposes: One, when the image gets reduced it tends to also reduce the appearance of wobbly or squiggly lines. Two, if I ever decide to make a print, it's already at a good resolution for doing so, and Three, unless you're working in vector-based methods (Flash or Illustrator), reducing an image will be fine, but enlarging an image will lead to artifacting.

The original resolution of this image is 1613 x 2177 pixels. And that's rather small compared to most images that I do - I've been known to start at 6,000 x 6,000 pixels (10 inches square @ 600 dpi) and reduce as necessary.

Looks like some of dose that trips out of the pubs at night. Skinny, big eyes and just buzzing around the lamp.

I like the outline. That is a very nice stile. Might wanner try that someday.

Or someone with a very open mind. I think she's kinda desperate, to be honest.

the tips of her ... hands? ... are sticky. It's setting the drink back down that's the real trick.
