    I'm the Tofu in the comic, right? hahahaha.

    Well... I don't know how she does it, but maybe you can try combining vectors with painting?
    To me it seems like she has one side with hard lines and one with soft shading for her hair highlights, and so maybe you can vector the bottom edge and then airbrush the other side?

    I noticed that nav-bar doesn't line up perfectly like in the pic here, so yeah, for these add the height to however many pixels until it lines up:

    #nav-bar { height: 50px; }
    #nav-bar ul { height: 50px; }

    this thread looks fun! I want to join! XD (I should be doing homework, but I'm doing this instead. TwT)
    Anyway, I realy like your progression! Keep at it! :D Though it is a bit hard to see, especially the comics. I wouldn't mind seeing bigger versions.

    ok... I don't have anything before eight grade unfortunately, but this is about the time I started taking art seriously anyway. Warning: Big pics. I pretty much put in everything I did, minus doodles, or it would've gotten ridiculous.

    Mostly 2006, except the first two.

    More 2006 that I forgot to put in the thing...

    2007 was a very prolific year, and the one where my current style started to form.

    2008, especially near the end was when I really started to push myself to become better. Also spent a lot of time on oekaki.

    2009... mostly portraits and stuff. I'm spending a lot more time on individual pictures now so there's not as many.

    oh... I have a question... what's #leaderboard? I've been messing around with it but I can't figure out what it does.

  7. DarthTofu Elite Member 4wk 4d ago

    Thank you so much. ^__________^

    hayashi... am I the victim again? -_- hahaha.
    When did this issue happen? XD But I like it. Yaaaay!

  9. DarthTofu Elite Member 5wk 2d ago

    Oh... what happened to that ultra cool highlight box you had before?

  10. DarthTofu Elite Member 5wk 2d ago

    Excellent! <3

    Hey, Squeenix is selling Cloud perfume! Now you too can smell like Mako radiation or whatever Cloud smells like! It's unisex, too, so anyone can smell like their favorite 12-year-old JRPG character for the low, low price of $70! (or ¥6900)

    I'm dying of laughter. Your thoughts?

  14. DarthTofu Elite Member 5wk 5d ago

    I'm having loads of trouble trying to fit my current layout into the new one. T_T
    Actually, I have loads of trouble designing anything for the new layout. T_T

    HOLY SHIT I JUST TOTALLY REALIZED MY LAST WALL COULD'VE FILLED THE SPOT OF F FOR THE ALPHABET PROJECT. >_>
    Two years ago I was gonna make a FFVII wall for it anyway. XD
    I guess you can put it up if you want. XD

    Seasons sounds good to me, and so does limited palette rainbow happiness. I've been getting into pixel art recently so controlled color and all that stuff has been really fascinating. haha.

    I like the idea of contest winners as the layout, too.

    Collages are not allowed, so I'm assuming that progression sheets aren't allowed either. There is nothing against posting old works, though, as long as they are sufficient quality.

    If you want to post your progression sheets somewhere, upload to an image hosting site like photobucket, imageshack, or la.gg, and you can post it on the Anime Pictures Dump. Works in progress can be posted in The Sandbox.
    I've done it myself in the past, so yeah. :D

    Btw, welcome to MT. ^_^

    Yaaaaay. Awesomeness, it's up it's up!
    I dunno if I started school yet. I've moved in, but classes don't start until tomorrow. :nya:

    Piano, had lessons for 12 years... it's the main instrument I play obviously...

    Everything in the mandol family (Mandolin, Mandola, Mandocello... never got to play the mandobass though. :P)
    had lessons for 3 months on Mandolin, ultimately ended preferring Mandola after experimenting with the other two.

    flute, ocarina, recorder, fife, percussion stuff (in concert band... mostly timpani and mallet percussion), ukulele. these were self-taught.

    and while I don't claim to be able to play any of these, I can at least get a decent tune after a bit of wankering: cello, guitar, theremin, musical saw, banjo. XD and I can at least get a single decent note out of pretty much anything else, though I don't know if that's all that special.

    I don't know anything about how to play bowed instruments like violin, but string instruments in general are rather similar and easy to pick up if you can play one of them, and that bowing and plucking are surprisingly similar though have many different nuances (of course).

    I took partial IB... only Literature. I failed that. hahahaha (actually I passed, but barely)
    IB in Singapore sounds really tough, that sucks.

    Though even here in the US everyone I know that took full IB were dead by the time it ended.

    Recently I started using LAB color sliders in photoshop to pick colors instead of HSV just for the hell of it. And I started getting curious as to exactly what the hell LAB was, being the color nerd that I am. Though I'm also very lazy so I never bothered to research it...

    Then while browsing good ol' DA I came across Janaschi's journal post... and it's very clear from the examples that LAB blends colors better than standard RGB or CMYK. And that's where I found the link I just posted.

    So in short, basically while CMYK uses the primary colors of ink, and RGB uses the primary colors of light, LAB treats colors the way the human eye does (Lightness (rods), (a)green+red, (b)blue+yellow (cones)) and therefore has a complete spectrum of colors visible to humans whereas the other systems are limited. Also, LAB can be converted to CMYK for printing without the color discrepencies that RGB to CMYK does.

    In the realm of digital painting, it actually causes the colors to blend differently, since luminescence is treated separately from color. So yeah, seems pretty cool, I'll be experimenting to see what happens.

    EDIT: This just in... LAB mode ROCKS MY SOCKS OFF.
    It's like painting with a lightweight dodge and burn that doesn't destroy the colors. *_* And the blending is so smooth it's unbelievable... I'm not getting those weird pixelly dark spots anymore. (in my research I have discovered that 8-bit RGB blends subtractively, hence the dark spots...) You can't save jpgs in LAB, but I don't effing care. It's wonderful to work in.
