(I have colored "bronze" before---manually, from colored pencils. It takes gold, green and a little Tuscan Red, I think. Perhaps I could show you my attempt at bronze?)

Or, if you have Adobe suite, you can use Illustrator to make clear-cut line art, Flash to color, and Photoshop to shade/effects.

Have you tried sketching lightly on one layer and tracing them with dark, thicker lines on a layer above it? I've read about that on dA tutorials, the final line art is awesome.

Computer, with my tablet. Basically, if the line quality sucks, it's my computer. :P

Ooh, did you draw this by hand or by computer graphics?

The blue stuff was his idea, and I'm glad he thought of it. I'm most proud of the colors used here - have you ever tried to make something look bronze? It's hard.

Yeah, I should have up something tomorrow. See, Tokronos, SoR's pokemon? He came up with the idea, but originally the final stage would be a sleepy grandfather clock until I convinced him to make it an awesome robot clock and so I'm showing him how I pict...

Speaking of the guy, can we get back on topic and stop talking about what not we can fit into our backpacks and/or backpack like objects like our pockets? We've gotton WAY off topic.

I probably should stop bringing my hats around. I have more papers to bring around. Students bring their own homework. I have to bring everyone's homework AND tests. And schoolwork.

Drufle could be harboring monsters in his pockets...... (I have no need to explain the pun/reference.) I feel lacking. I have no pockets.

WHOA! Those are huge pockets!

Re: Drawing practice.

feeds@yuku.com (Drufle) — Mon, 24 May 2010 00:37:15 PST

Oh hoh, you wouldn't believe what I can fit in my pockets. For some reason, every pair of pants I own has huge pockets. In one pair of pants, I can fit the following: two books (actual sized ones, comparable to about half a Harry Potter book), my DS, abou...

I would bring a Laptop around, but I lack one. I would bring around a sketchpad, but I feel like my still life is terrible. I would bring around a Camera but I feel like it takes up too much space (I don't bring around a Backpack, I just use my pockets ...

Well my school is fairly large, and I have to walk across campus twice each day. I think that's about a quarter-mile. It's really far. At least my backpack's comfortable. If it wasn't, I would need a daily massage to make up for the pain. Besides, I can c...

In my backpack, I have my bidner, my pencil case, my math book, my calculator, my phone, my key to the house, my DS, and whatever other crap is in there. Now, that doesn't seem like much, right? Well, I keep EVERYTHING else in my binder, which means ...

I carry a tote bag for a backpack, which has some colorful candy bar wrappers, a few pennies and nickels, random pieces of paper, a spare book in case I finish my other one and my lunch----no lunchbox, just a plastic bag. I carry around my binder also, wh...

My locker is in the nether regions of my school, so far away that I actually can't get to it between classes. We have four minutes between classes, so imagine how far away my locker is. So anyway, I have to keep EVERYTHING in my backpack. My books, my bin...

I've just been drawing a bit lately. It's nice, not stressful (which is a change from my usual schedule).Here's something I drew today. The colors got screwed up horribly though. The shading looks non-existent. He's just a trainer. Thoughts? I'll be ...
