Description
Um, sorry this took so long to get up! First time I've ever colored with the computer. Uhh..enjoy?COMMENTS PLEASE! I don't know how I've done. I hope it looks better than my scanned marker stuff.
SPOILERS
Theyre holding hands...it's kinda symbolic like because Namine is part of Kairi

I am just going to say that this looks cute but the lines around Kairi's hair and face don't seem dark enough the gray seems to stick out.

Great job with your first computer coloring...
Well good job overall actually....I like the way you drew the hands.

I likes! The lines look a bit light, but I guess that's just stylistic. I like how Kairi's skirt looks. I can never draw pleated skirts right >.<

Wow, this is very good, especially for a first time coloring on the computer!
I love the way you've drawn Kairi's skirt, very dynamic ^^
The only thing I'd suggest is that you add some highlights to the hair, it's a little dark/flat. Great job though!
And thanks for stopping by my page, it's always nice to meet a fellow fan

i like the skin tones, although the feet are fairly large
π: 0 β©: 1
LOl yeah, thats actually the style of the characts. Believe it or not it you look at the actual art of the characters their feet are much larger....its kinda strange

Gray outlines aren't such a downside (at least to me), I mean, you used light colors most parts of the characters. Anyhoo, I'd say this is another good peice from you.

great characters. i like it. i don't like the gray outlines of kairi's hair, but that's it.

Very very nicely done
If i may, i would like to make a suggestion or two
- I believe you used the burn tool to shade most of this ne? It is a matter of preference, but I feel that the burn tool often is not the best shading tool, especially for more complicated pictures
if your interested check out this tutorial: [link]
It is very good and teaches you how to paint shadows, because the burn tool often destroys much of the depth of a picture
-Also, try to keep your lines dark - I think the lines on namine is a bit grey
Besides that...keep up the good work! - you have an awesome gallery

Lol thanks for the help! Actually....I didn't use a brun tool, I just used different shades of blues or whatever, but I understand what you are saying. Yessss the lines are grey....i was stupid and colored the eyes on the same layer as the outline so I couldn't change the outline coloring without ruining the eyes. But thanks for the comment, helpful comments liek these are VERY much appreciapted! <3

Ah...i know what you mean -hates when that happens-

Wow. Your First time coloring with a computer? I'm a little Jealous.

LOl youre completely right, there's a tone of little tricks that you havwe to figure out and adobe isnt just something anyone can do or any other art program. But thanks so much!

I wish the outlines were more apparent and bold, but other than that, very nice! Especially good job on the hands; an area I have mucho problems with. >_<
π: 0 β©: 1
Lol thanks! Yeahh,..,..the lines bother me but i stupidly did the coloring of the eyes in the same layer as the outline....so I couldnt really change it. But thanks!

Really good picture, I like the poses they are in, although the gray lines on Kairi kind of stick out.

You used Photoshop?
Alright, let Aries teach ya a little trick.
Y'see how the lines are all gray on Kairi's hair? It's real easy to get away with that kinda thing on lighter-haired people, and a bitch when it comes to darker-haired ones. But, y'can fix it pretty easily!
Go to the layer you use for your lines in the 'layers' window. Now, above it, there should be some little icons. "Lock: (Little Checker Square), (Paintbrush), (Directional thingy), (Padlock)."
If y'click them, they'll make it so y'can't do certain stuff to that layer. Locking the first one will literally make it so y'can't color outside the lines. Locking the second will make sure you can't color over what y'already have. Locking the third makes it so y'can't move it, and the last one locks all of them.
It's actually really easy to make those gray lines black. Lock the transparency so you can't color outside the lines, then hit those lines with a big black brush. You can even dial down the opacity on the paintbrush tool so it's not too dark.

LOL, yes I know....I tried that like when I was almost finished but then I remembered I made the stupid mistake or coloring the eyes in the same layer as the basic lines. I could of used a regualr paintbrush though....didn't think of that. Thanks

Lol, well, generally, they look a ton like the characters....The only difference I notice is that Namine's hair is darker by a few shades, and that Namine's dress is a little different, considering the bottom edge of her dress is jagged, while here it's smooth, and that it looks like in this picture that her dress has no straps. Kairi looks a lot like the real thing, and her tie looks especially good
