Description
This is fun and easy to do. Just draw any character you like paying close attention to the sillouette. Add a few minor details in the clothes for reference later and then scan it into photoshop. Fill your entire character with black and the background with bright red. Then use your lasso tool and your original reference lines inside the figure to add very slight highlights to certain areas but keeping all exposed skin or hair in black. Add some custom text playing off the iPod logo(for example, I used iDraw) and some text at the bottom. bing bang boom, you got your own custom ad. This one is in honor of my love and inspiration, my wife ( doing her patented go-go dance of course).Now you do one!

Doesn't mean you can't have fun drawing an ad for an iPod. (8

Some people hate the iPod ads because they see them as a bandwagon jumper thing. I like'em. They're fun to do cute. This one is especially well done.

Most impressive. It's actually amazing how amazingly simplistic the iPod ad is to redo thanks to photoshop. It's almost like they NEW other people would be wanting to play around with it.
Plus, you're little step by step makes it rather idiot-proof.
And I do enjoy the personal touch, with this patented go-go dance (if your sure about that, cause I thought I saw it last week on the street)
In either case, a fine work indeed.
As such, I have something of a request. I have recently come to the odd conclusion to start a long-term project, which requires one or two things I need to gather. This project is actually a gift for some friends of mine, of whom I own a great deal to. I have gotten the idea of giving them something back, and with your help I can do that. I simply ask permission to reference your work here for my project, which is of no personal gain to myself. And of course you shall get all the credit you deserve for what I do.
Thank you for your time, and thanks for sharing all this wonderful work with us on DA.
