Description
A quick coloring/drawing test, using Violet's slightly updated character design. I'm still trying to figure out what's the best way to draw, ink, and color the graphic novel, and the results for this one is pretty decent. I was able to work this with relative ease, but I'm wondering if I'll get any complications when I color full pages like this?Well, I'll keep trying different things with different characters. C:
Sketch, colors - Photoshop CS3
Lineart - Flash 8

I'm so glad you're finally giving her a skirt. That mini-dress thing didn't make as much sense as this.

I realized how problematic the mini-dress thing was about halfway through round 1. But, at that point, I didn't want to just arbitrarily change her design just because I realized the problem with it.
So, new graphic novel with a nice fresh start. Yay.

Thanks! I'm liking it too, but Flash is a tad bit fickle to work with. D:
And yes, Cloud enjoys being my signature. XD I just felt my old text-watermark was too boring.

Hmm... if you can afford it, I suggest purchasing Paint Tool Sai for lineart. Its lines are super clean, and not to mention the program's only $20.

A little less than $60 actually. xD
I tried before, but I found out it's not available for Mac! D: What a shame.

Ohh yikes. The price must have jumped!
I have another idea that might work though. If you enlarge the sketch and set the DPI to 600, I think you can get fairly clean lines using the pencil tool. uses that technique, if you want reference for what the results look like.

Hmm, I might try that for the next color test! Thanks for the suggestion! ^^
