Description (With a nod to Mali, who already colored this...)

I decided to practice my CGing. Now I particularly don't like CGing... because I am lefthanded and I learnt how to use the mouse with my right hand. I get frustrated both when I try to either teach my left hand to use a mouse or when I try to force my right steady enough to draw straight line.

Whining aside, I forced myself to do this. It's not so good but I expect I'll get better at it as time goes on. I discovered somethings while coloring it... I should learn how to do that clickclick thang and draw over my inked lines so that the picture can be much smoother, or learn how to ink smoother lines before scanning. O_o;

I practiced some things that I learnt in my wonderful New Media class in this... namely layers and how to make shadows. Now I'm quite proud of my newly found shadow making ability.

*cackles* I could very-well see this happening on the show...alas...if only it wasn't a 'kids' show...they probably would have blown each other to pieces ages ago in such a case.

ok, since you reccomended ripping apart your art....

1. No bridge for Dib's glasses!
2. Dib's pupil isn't colored in!
3. The back of Dib's head isn't curved enough
4. Dib's ears are too square
5. both Zim and Dib seem to have boots to large for their legs
6. The end of Zim's antennae should curve inward, not outward.
6. Zim's skirt should only have 3 rings on it.
7. from the side, only two spikes (not including the scythe) of Dib's hair should be visible.
8. Dib's collar should stick out and to the back, not the front.
9. Zim's collar should be in the shape of a trapezoid, with the larger end at the top.
10. Zim's skirt should be like a rounded cone, with the top in the collar.
11. Zim's mouth should be completley black inside.

I hope you take it the right way!

Thanks Cyberen!

... I'll keep those in mind for next time I attempt to draw Zim in the Zim style.

(Except for the eye... I might fix that when I get home.)

so much rage in his face, it's adorable. Not a bad cg coloring for someone just starting out. The shadows are especcially nice. You did something with the layers for that huh? I'm too lazy to mes with layers most of the time - heh.
