Description So here is the 'semi-finished' version of the (bad) colored sketch some time ago. It is not very good, I must admit, but I think I like the design a little better now. The reason why I did not shade her skin/hair/clothes etc. is because my shading skills are simply not pro enough. I had a hard enough time picking out a palette, and even now I'm unsatisfied with the color combinations. If you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them, as Mimi will probably undergo many changes before I settle on a final version.

... I wish I drew better.

Media
Photoshop CS2
Wacom Graphire 4 Tablet
4+ Hours (believe it or not)

No musical inspiration. huzzah.

Mimi is copyrighted to me. Please do not take her or her clothing designs.

If you would like the lineart to color the picture, please note me and I'll send you a link of it. ;] But if you do so, please link back to me and this deviation. Thanks.

Nice clothes, even though i think her eyes look kind of weird, and her nose are like two slits, just like Lord Voldemort. Nice picture, you own. Favorited!

ah I don't have the money for Adobe xD so it's GIMP all the way (haha oh yes, that's my stuff looks like crap xD)

Aaanyway, what I wanted to say was : Well done!

Thank you so much for the kind comment!

Anyway.. You don't have Adobe? -pat- Well, it is darn expensive. (methinks it's a rip-off.) (holy cow, methinks is actually a word... on my paranoid automatic spell-check thingy ) (and your stuff is not crap. pshhawww.)

Well, thank you again!

ooh, cool! What d'you mean it's bad!?
For shading tips I generally use Adobe's multiply and screen options on the paintbrush, dunno what your program has.
-is no good at people-

Thank you so much!

(Lol, I use Adobe too btw. xD Multiply is pretty spiffy, I must admit, although my drawings tend to look retarded on the few occasions I try it out for shading..) Anyway, thanks again.
