thanks yeah I have been told that I do pretty good with only color pencils and maybe some pen and marker added in my favorite picture color wise is my Kianna Summons Blue-Eyes Color because of how the Blue-Eyes turned out I surprised myself on it

Yes! You really are good at colouring and inking. I just checked your Kianna Summons Blue-Eyes, and mamma mía! I loved that Blue-Eyes! I hope I can colour like that someday, I'm just good at drawing XD

thank you I was think about how was I going to color him because if you look at all the pics of Blue-Eyes hes not really white hes different shades of blue well I figured out a way to color Blue-Eyes and have the different shades thats to color him entirely with a white color pencil then start lightly going over it with the blues and where you need darker shades you put a little more pressure to tip of the pencil and it really worked as you can see and the girl I did that for was extremely happy with it because Kianna is her Original Character so I was so worried about screwing it up and she would approve of it and actually its a redo of her picture thats in the description of my version I had to do some work on her face since her picture Kianna's face didn't exactly have a lot of detail but I couldn't put all that detail on Blue-Eyes and not do some detail work on Kianna's face look at the 2 pics mine and hers and tell me you opinion did I do a good job Kianna herself I would like to hear a 2nd opinion on her
well just think of it this way everyone has their own way of coloring with color pencils like me I like bold bright colors on my pictures then some prefer to do lightly colored picture but I did a lot of practice in coloring with color pencils and I prefer them over markers I wish I had program like Photoshop but I don't have the money and I have had some people tell me they wish I wouldn't stop coloring in the style I'm using now with the color pencils but I wish I could does some digital versions of some of my pics just don't have that kind of money

Wow! Well I do have Photoshop, but I don't know how to use it very well XD. I haven't really tried to learn, though. These are some of the styles I've tried:

Of course they're not even close as good as the way my friend colours my drawings, like this one [link]
As for the colour pencils, well I try my best haha but I'm not very good at it:
I used Photoshop a little in this one --> [link]
I think you've already seen this one

think you did great on all of them even the DMG done in color pencil she looks good and thats no lie I true do think shes looks great and keep practicing with your photoshop and you will so super awesome look pics in the future
I have found out when working with color pencils the brand you use makes a difference because if you were to take say 6 different brands like Crayola, Roseart and so on and then you take the red color pencil out just the plain red not bright red not light red just the regular red pencil out of each box and what you have is 6 different shades of red I prefer to use the Roseart brand because they have nice bold and smooth colors to them well by looking at my pictures they are nice colors
and you friend has some awesome work as well I just took a look

Awww thank you very much! 
Yeah I think the brand matters. I use Crayola and Faber-Castell. The colours on your pictures look very good! I need to try Roseart
Haha yes, thank you! She is a professional

I try to my best to keep up the confidence of other artist so they will keep doing their works of art others have done for me so I try to pass on that great feel to other artist like yourself
the brand makes a the entire difference in a good looking, great looking and a EPIC looking pic and I actually prefer Roseart over Crayola
it shows that she is to

wow nice job xD the coloring is great ^^
btw, howd u get u name at the bottom?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thank you very much I said I would finally get her done and get her on here and its taken long enough but I'm really happy on how she and her colors came out
and the name at the bottom I did custom with a program called Roxio Creator 2009 I took and did the *ADD TEXT* feature and added the 3 parts of the name separately placed them where I needed them layered them how I needed them changed the colors to what I wanted then added my DA account address then saved it ass a single object then when I added it to the this pic I then used the cut out feature traced around the letters then when I got done tracing around all the letters and cut off all the excess area I then faded the edges to get the ghostly edge look and then made the whole thing slightly transparent so it wasn't so solid looking
sorry for the long explanation and thanks for the

I'm very much happy I think I'm happier about my newest submittion I post this morning called Kianna **Summons Blue-Eyes Color**
yeah the Roxio Creator program can make some stuff run a little slow but you should be able to find another program that would allow you to do the same thing its just thats what I have to use right now

lolz i should check it out, my inbox is going crazy now, it says i have 1165 messages LOL
I'll just write my name in tiny letters xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
wow thats alot of messages I try not to let mine get like that
what ever you feel does the best for you some people have digital signatures and some have ones that they have hand created for their pictures I couldn't think of anything I could do by hand so did mine this way

lol yeah i know, but some days, i cant go on DA to check them. .__. i joined so many groups. in one hour i would get oveer 100 pics in my inbox
I wonder if i could photoshop it XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah I figured that was the issue for you not checking them more often and them building up like that I understand yeah I actually had to go into my settings for DA Watches for groups and stop the pic flow and now just get the journals every so often go in to the groups and check out the newest pics they have to see if I want to fav them
if PhotoShop allows you to add text to a picture and edit the letters then yes any program that allows you do add custom text and customize the text like the colors differnt fonts and like the outline colors then yes check it out you most likely can

i know it sucks X.X i unwatched some groups pic
yeah, i might need to look up a tutorial for that
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah get so many in one day got to be pissing me off for a awhile so I changed some of my settings on that and it not so bad now
yeah check it out it should allow you to make a single project out of that without adding to a picture 1st

thats nice to know that you like it that much and I'm really happy on how her colors mess to gether as a whole she came out awesome this has to be one of my best pieces I've done so far

Your welcome ^-^ And I agree! I enjoy seeing art of her. She needs more love.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah another artist has already told me that I needed to do another pic of her but not really sure when i might get around to it because i already have a few things lined up that I have to do 1st and I'm just hoping that they turn well enough 1st but she really does need more people to draw her and back off all the I'm sorry to say the gay he-and-he Yu-Gi-Oh! art I'm really tired of seeing Yugi and Yami in these gay Yaoi pics and Bakura and Marik are also done way too much together
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I agree with you.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah there is a little to many people drawing that crap I can see a few but I think there are more artist drawing Yu-GAY-Oh! than regular Yu-Gi-Oh! stuff you know there is actually a group on DA that is called yu-gay-oh I was like you have to be kidding me now the bad thing 98% of the same sex stuff with Yu-Gi-Oh is Yaoi or Guy-On-Guy but now I like the Yuri or Girl-On-Girl stuff but there isn't that much of the Yuri type stuff as there should be but I just stick with the regular Yu-Gi-Oh stuff
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I agree again. I like to draw the regular YuGiOh stuff even though I throw my character Setzuna in there.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hey but your still drawing Yu-Gi-Oh stuff when you throw in another character that just makes the picture just that much more yours and original
