Yeah, so Jak my be my 2nd fave character from the games (you all know who's #1!) but darnit if the guy isn't fun to draw.

I am still getting used to my scanner and the way things work with it. Some things are easy to scan with (perfect the first time around) and others I am still playing around with the level-changes to get the image looking right. With this pic, I gave up after about 10mins of fiddling with the levels, because I couldn't get it looking anywhere near like the original piece

The original has much stronger-looking colours. Like the green on Jak's eyebrows and Soul Patch are a deep forest-green...nothing like the colours you see here. X3

Oh well. More playing around with the scanner next time.

EDIT: A-HA! Now THIS is what the colours SHOULD have looked like with the first scan! - Just like the original! :3 Finally, Jak no longer makes you need a pair of sunglasses to look at him and his bright skin.
