Description I went through hell to upload this, haha. Using my old computer, which still has my scanner installed, it took about 30 mins for Photoshop to start up, 10 mins for Firefox to start up and a loong time to upload the drawing itself.

At first when I was drawing the shirt I though it pretty much sucked, then as I continued I though that "hey, it doesn't look so bad" and now I'm pretty happy about it ^^

Oh, and you see that shoulder protection thingy? The top part? All 2B mech pencil ;O I wanted to try it out a little. But it took so long time so I switched to 9B regular for the other part.

Well, I hope you like

mattcrossley In reply to Tacoly [2009-04-06 05:52:16 +0000 UTC]

ah true, I use my fingers for that, but it makes a mess, I might ahve to try that ^^

Tacoly In reply to mattcrossley [2009-04-10 12:05:15 +0000 UTC]

Using fingers for blending usually gives an uneven result, so yes, start using something else ^^

mattcrossley In reply to Tacoly [2009-04-10 23:51:26 +0000 UTC]

yeah I've noticed that, I quite like cross hatching but im not very good at it

although sometimes I like the uneven-ness like in skin tone

What did you need a sock for? I really love the image, but that part of the artist's comment really baffled me.

I really can't think of any criticism, so I'm just gonna have to say unsophisticatedly that I love it.
