Gen-Til won one of my art auctions, so I ended up drawing her avi which was fun to draw. It's been a long time since I drew anything with cat ears. D:

I know she's missing her eyebrows, but I'm too lazy to put them in there you didn't notice until after I told you, right? ;D

I love how this came out considering that it's cell-shaded although I took more time than I wanted to.

<3 criticism appreciated!

I like the soft colouring in this, you can see it is the same colouring style you've been using, but it has a softer touch to it. Looks good :3

;w; I LOVE TEH EARS! ... ... 👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Saiyuni In reply to KitaeKat [2008-05-26 19:50:50 +0000 UTC]

soft... coloring? D8 but... cell-shading is the opposite of soft-shading xD

I think it's because of the style of lineart >3

lol I know! I haven't drawn them in so long, I miss them D8

You ARE AN OBSESSED NEKO FREAK! >D I was trying to find the write words but hey, you found it for me xD

Lol I know I know, its just with the new style of lineart, the colouring just seems really soft and etc. but I can see it is cell-shading.

D: You ought to draw ears once in a while <3 and... I admitted it so I am completely fine with it >

Wow...it's much softer than your usual. I like the change though. Your getting more defined in cell shading. Your still lacking some depth. While everything is shaded nicely it still looks flat.
Keep working girl. I should start having new stuff up in the next few weeks.

Saiyuni In reply to Yunsildin [2008-05-20 19:23:49 +0000 UTC]

Really? And I'm really glad to hear that! <3

And rofl It's flat because it's cell-shaded xP I found out a way how to sell my art for less but getting a decent quality ;D

cell-shading = flat-shading >D

Yup, I will! And I can't wait to see them! <3<3<3

I've seen some cell shading that is truly dimensional and very simple. It just takes using the right amount darker and lighter in hues for shading and highlighting I think.

x3 I know; and I know exactly why it looks a lot flatter than other cell-shadings, but these days I can't get myself to try new styles D8 or it's just the fact that I'm using much thicker outlines.

Either way, thanks for your critiques~ How would I improve without them? xD

@_@ Wow. That's just...awesome. XD I so wish I could get a full body of an OC in that style. >>; But I don't think even two MCs would cover half the cost eh? XD Great job on the art though. <3
