Oh look! It's my first figure/figurine/trophy I've ever drawn! ^^ OF NEPETA, ALSO!

BTW, I used Zaneki's technique that she used to draw the picture that she sent on the Homestuck topic! Thick lineart! ^^

BTW, again, the shading looks pretty easy to me… I don't know why some Scratchers complained on the shadows

Finding the right colors, however, IS hard for shading, but nevermind that! ^^
BEE-YOO-TEE-FULL
OMG
I love it!! What brush did you use for it? It's totally awesome! :D

(and how is your handwriting so good?? ;_; )

I cannot express my love for this picture. It's so wonderfully simple yet colorful yet cute and AGH.
<3

C:

And you did perfectly on the shading. But if you'd like me to post an explanation on how I choose colors for shading/highlighting, I can certainly do so.

(and I know I've obsessed over it enough already, but do you mind if I save your picture to my computer? I just want to… look at it some more… :P )

XD Sure sure, you can save it X3

I didn't think it would impress you so much XD

I played around with the “Oils” brushes a bit (but I never used the “Fine Soft Glazing” ones).

It's all made on 1 layer, which by ‘made’ I mean ‘drawn’, and it's originally not merged with the background (PNG!). I used the “Medium Bristle Oils” just for the lineart, and then I filled it out with the basic colors, using “Fine Feathering”. Then, I added the basic shadows (the darkest ones) and used your method. Then I added some highlights. All with the same brush. Tho, I had some problems with the head, but I eventually figured it out. For the highlight on the horns, I changed the Opacity a little (I think it was from 10 (default on that brush), to 6, and then some little 3). I didn't add too much highlights to the hair because I already tried it on the edges/tips, and it didn't satisfy me (I thought it didn't look good).

For the eyes, I made little circles under her hat's “teeth” ( :3 ), and then I added a darker, but smaller circle to the corners, or edges, of her eyes. Then, I filled 3/4 of the dark circle with ANOTHER, smaller, and a bit brighter, circle. There still remained some original color. Then, I added the basic little highlight, and, because I found it cute, I added another, small, but brighter, dot, near the highlight.

And now they look like little pearls! ^^

PHEW, my little rant about how I drew the picture and with which brushes. XD

BTW, for my handwriting, I don't know XD. I used… erm… Still dunno how you call it, so I'll trust the translator and call it ‘script’. Ok, I used scripting… letters…? They used to teach us that from our first 2 grades I think.

BTW, for the line there, it's a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG story XD

Draw like the wind, my friend. But, ah, assume the wind is a person, I suppose. A person with a sheet of paper. A person who is handy with a pencil. Okay, just draw like an artist, then.

Of course I did!

…I wish Photoshop had good oil brushes; all of the ones Elements has are these blotchy ones that aren't even good for shading smoke D:

EDIT: Okay, I really need something to draw. Can someone give me something simple-ish to draw? Something that'll take, maybe half an hour or so?

You can install the free version of Artewaver on their website! I used the free version, too! ^^
And the download is fast, so I don't think it takes up very much space.

BTW, select the “Default” (if your gonna install it), because I checked, and there is no advertising/antiviruses/clients whatsoever.

You know I picked this up from you, you know? The Nepeta picture. The Nepeta picture you posted after my picture. X3
BTW, for the fancy handwriting, I can't do anything about it XD

Yes, but, anyone can decide to use thick lines… it's wasn't technically my idea…

I was not blessed with good handwriting. ;_;

Hey Zan, is it worth trying to draw Meta Knight? XD It's a bit hard to draw him, at least to me.

(yay! you called me Zan! :D )
I've… never played Kirby… but I say go for it! If you want to draw something, draw it, even if it's tough the first few times.

Posting so I'm still on-topic
