karuma9 In reply to KaelNgu [2009-01-01 12:42:43 +0000 UTC]

I think so too. Maybe it's because I didn't blend the color well or the shaded part is too dark. Thanks for remind me about this, will be more careful next time.

Thankies my friend. Yeah, he always looks cool most of the time. Having bad academic result but his basketball skill is almost invincible. The anime is great, if ya dun mind it's a classic one, you can find it very funny and interesting.

Me too, coincidentally... I missed the part after Kenshin fought the mummy guy. But overall it's freakin' great! I finished yuyuhakusho d, and I like it's GBA RPG game. Playing becomes more interesting after watching the anime.

same here, mate! I always have no clue for BG's so mostly I choose something easy to make like a wall or sky and clouds
but seriously: making a decent Bg can take longer thqan the actual pic :/

but it looks really good!

karuma9 In reply to Azley [2008-12-30 01:00:52 +0000 UTC]

haha you know bg is the most subjective thingy of a pic. But here's the benefit, we can try on various bg, looking for the most appropriate one to be it. So, though it's sometime puzzling but it was fun. Thanks for the comment and fav as well mate.

Azley In reply to karuma9 [2009-01-09 22:15:33 +0000 UTC]

BG's are my worst nightmare (right after coloring dark places) - yours are always so creative and I lack talent and imagination :/
but I just need to try and try till I get something decent I guess

very welcome like always, mate!

karuma9 In reply to Azley [2009-01-10 14:25:26 +0000 UTC]

lol right now I'm working on pieces which I have no idea at all about what bg to put. While I keep on sketching some future works, I started to worry. (and my drawings piled up lately, haha) Yeah you're right, I'd rather choose some simple and decent BG next time, yet I still dreaming to make some outstanding BG myself.
