*Saves your advice, and adds to watch*

Thanks a lot. I've only just got into this style of art, and I have a friend who says she'd be more than happy to give me some advice on how to execute anime drawings well... I can't wait to get into CGI.

And I desperately need a scanner. =/

I've got photoshop, yes, (check my page!) but don't know shat about colourising drawings. (And I don't even have a working scanner yet!)

^__^ I did look before I asked you but there's a couple of programs out there that can do those efects things.

but for the bg I made a copy of the layer I was going to work on. then on the top layer i went to filter/blur/radial blur...
it'll come up with a popup window. make sure that the 'zoom' button is pressed and play with the settings as you will.

on the bottom layer I made a layer mask then used the radial gradient, (with the defalt colors white forground, black background) started in the center and dragged to the end and played with it till I got what I liked.

as for coloring. i actualy started with other people's art 'cause I hated how I drew. I didn't think I could draw worth anything. poke around in other people's galerys. ask them if they would let you try and color their art. (if you would like find anything of mine you would like to color and go for it. I'm not a great artist but it's something to start with. just let me know what you wanna color) just make sure you give the artist credit for the drawing. what I do with other's art is put the lineart on the top and change the mode to "darken" and put the color on layers underneath it that way i don't alter their original art in any way but to color it. I start with a base color and then throw highlights and shadows on it... hope I helped some. I'm no expert but if you have any more questions feel free to ask!
