Description This was a request from - my long lost highschool friend!

The girl is her OC from a certain game and the tiger is her boyfreind's character from the same game.
They are playing together! Ah sooo sweet

I wanted to make this look good since, it was for those two and they both played a big part in my past life...
Thank you both, the time spent with you was awesome!
You two are both kind and friendly people and I'm happy to see that you're still together after so many years!
I wish you all the best in the future and this picture shall be a little gift for you to have something that will remind you of me.

About the picture itself, well - don't look too much at the tiger, I know it doesn't look right, but I never tried to draw a furry animal digitally, so I didn't know how to make it look good
Still hope you like the picture as a whole... I tried my best for you

nice coloring! I love it! especially the girl.
the only critics I can say is probably the BG, it kinda looks too "empty".
anyway what software did you usually use to draw?

Azula-Kurohime In reply to nrvrl [2013-11-18 04:01:14 +0000 UTC]

my, you don't have to hold back XD There's much more wrong with this picture than just the background xD

The girl's pose is not right and the tiger coloring is terrible... XD


Anyway I use photoshop CS5... only recently I tried working in Paint Tool Sai, but I still prefer photoshop and use Sai only when I want a detailed lineart...

What about you?

nrvrl In reply to Azula-Kurohime [2013-11-18 04:56:08 +0000 UTC]

I used to draw with Photoshop, but now I'm using SAI (I found it more flexible to use),
I use Photoshop only for retouching and add effect of the finished image.

its always a good thing if you can spotting your own flaw, keep practicing and improve!

Azula-Kurohime In reply to nrvrl [2013-11-18 05:28:33 +0000 UTC]

more flexible, huh? I don't know, I didn't really work much in sai... I'm used to photoshop, so when I want to try doing something in sai I'm always like "uh where's that option? how do I do this and that?"

then I search around half an hour and in the end when I find what I was looking for, I'm like "I would've been done with this long time ago in photoshop" XD


yea, if you can... but sometimes you can't and than it's good if you have someone who can tell you what you're doing wrong

you too, keep up the great work

nrvrl In reply to Azula-Kurohime [2013-11-18 06:12:26 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, Photoshop have lots more option to work with than with SAI, like the edit-transform option, its better in Ps.
Me too have some difficulties when I first learn to use SAI (and there's time when I gave up to try to use it and back to Ps again), but now I feel more comfortable with it. I learn through lots of SAI painting tutorial on youtube and here on DA.

I'm glad we have this conversation,
and thanks for watching me,Β  I'm gonna watch you back, let's be friend

Azula-Kurohime In reply to nrvrl [2013-11-18 06:56:11 +0000 UTC]

I agree.... when I first opened sai, I was shocked that it didn't have many options which photoshop has... and my thoguht was like "okay, this program is like a child's toy compared to photoshop" XD

though it does have some handy features which photoshop doesn't... especially for linearts... and the quick rotation button is also cool


but yea, I guess it's just a matter of getting used to working with a different program... it's always weird at start, but once you figure out how things work, it's easy... I remember when I first started using photoshop... I was soooo confused XD


heheh yea I'm also enjoying our conversation

thanks for watch back and sure, glad to make a new friend :huG:

uh her artwork is really pro

manga studio, huh? yeah I've been planning to check out that program for months now, but I never got to download it my friend told me it's kind of complicated, though... did you try working with it?

thanks for the link, I'll check it out

nrvrl In reply to Azula-Kurohime [2013-11-19 00:39:18 +0000 UTC]

I know, right. Her artwork is stunning!
I've tried using manga studio, but never really use it.

yeah check it out, even if you didn't plan to use manga studio.
because you might find some useful tips, and general idea of how she makes all her artwork.

nrvrl In reply to Azula-Kurohime [2013-11-20 00:10:00 +0000 UTC]

it's varied, the fastest one I draw is about two days, and the longest one takes me more than a month.
it depend on my mood too, sometimes I would just abandoned one project and working on another one.

Azula-Kurohime In reply to nrvrl [2013-11-20 17:38:48 +0000 UTC]

well depends... I did the last two drawings in my gallery in a couple of hours... but if I want something to look really good, it can take a few days... but I never go over a week... usually 3 days max... I'd say I use 3-20 hours

nah you're not everyone has their own pace...Β 

though speed can come with practice... you could try doing 1-minute sketches... just trying to copy some images quickly, with no great thinking.... it helps to get a better hang of anathomy and such... of course the sketches will look like crap, but it's still a good practice

I've been using these sites for that purpose, so you may want to give it a try

oh come on... no one was born an artist, it's something that must be learnt as well
we all had our terrible failures that we wish no one would ever see, but it's all a part of the way to perfection...
if you check the beginning of my gallery, you'll see... well kind of bad pictures... but I came from that level, to my current in less than a year...
everything is possible if one has enough willpower

LOL, you have a love for art. as much as i adore looking at it and coming up with stories to go with pictures my creative heart belongs to writing...and storms but mostly writing

Azula-Kurohime In reply to KayleeRydder [2013-06-21 23:27:12 +0000 UTC]

well that's great too!
everyone has inspiration to do something else and we should all pursue what makes us happiest...
it's drawing for me and writing for you...
it's because all people are different and love something else, that this world is so interesting, rich and has so many possibilities!
so if it fulfills you, go on and write all you can
no need to force yourself through something you don't feel well doing
