This is my very very late birthday gift for my friend *CutieAnimeBaby*.
I'm so sorry for the lateness hun.
I was trying to make it look the best it could.^^
I've called this Dive to Blue, after the L'arc En Ciel song, it's really great and I think it fits the mood.
The lyrics are taken from a translation site.
I wanted to try doing some vector drawing. Well, it's not exactly that since I've done it mostly in Photoshop. I didn't want to just trace the original picture. The background was alot of fun, I've got to play with some nice PS effects.
I hope you like this Amanda, and all of you as well.
P.S.- If anyone knows where to find any vector drawing tutorials I'd be very grateful.
Fullview please!!

SaikonoYume (Reply)Total Posts: 316Dec 14, 2006 4:33 pmFreehand... I think I have that... But I tend to draw in Flash more. I know I did a project in my art class last year in Freehand, and I remember it being downright painful, lol. So I feel your pain. ^^ --- That which fell from the sky was not rain

Sayonara Ame (Reply)Total Posts: 1603Dec 15, 2006 5:45 amI did one too and it took alot of time, but never drew a person seriously so I didn't have much patience with this one. It's really easier to do in Flash.*nods* ---

Sayonara Ame (Reply)Total Posts: 1603Dec 15, 2006 5:35 amThanks again. I used the picture for the contours, only changed them a bit.^^ As for the pants I think they could've been better. The shading on the left leg still looks kinda cement-like to me. ---
