Description My trade with of her totally awesome character. This was seriously so much fun to draw. But I never did care much for coloring with red. I am just not good with red. XD

I began coloring on her leg, and well, sorta messed the fur up. And it was one of those situations where you try to fix it and only make it worse. Hope you don't mind too much.

I think the red turned out lovely, it's a tricky colour to work with and you did an amazing job!

I don't see where the fur messed up on the leg, looks great

I do actually have a question for you revolvivng around your coloring, to get this more realistic effect what tips would you give on white fur?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

SpottedNymph In reply to Kenshinxx [2010-02-24 06:40:07 +0000 UTC]

White fur? Ooo, a tough one. I used to hate coloring white fur. I don't mind so much anymore now, I think it is fun.

My #1 tip is DO NOT USE A LOT OF COLOR. Regardless of how much detail you do or do not have, use very little colors. My white fur almost always used to turn out looking light gray because I tried to add to much deatail with a light gray. Use a darker gray or black very sparingly, if at all. And going for the fur detail, don't just start in one area and add fur in on EVERY blank spot. skip around, and vary your pressure. The key is minimal color and detail, which will make for surprisingly good fur, even if it does not like good at first.

I hope that helped a little, I am not to well at explaining things.

Kenshinxx In reply to SpottedNymph [2010-02-24 13:38:49 +0000 UTC]

Yes it does, thank you it's intresting to see how others do it.

I myself use 3 colors for black fur, dark brown, persian blu and thn just black on top.

I have seen that piece by her. And I already favorited its awesome-ness.

Er.. hehe, I do love your badges. And I love trading originals as well, but I do love how this turned out. Let me see if I cannot get a good copy of this made at a store near me, if I can then I'd love to trade the originals.
