And what about lineart?

i just wanted to say once more that my desktop background never looked better. it puts a smile on my face to open it, and i was able to move the icons to the other side of the screen so i can see peanut now! yay!

You did a great job drawing those, Two_Twig!

Although I must say, I liked your old style better. The more HP-like style. But eh, this one is great, too.

Artist should draw in his own style. Unless he wants to copy someoone's style...

For some reason I actually like twiggy stick's 'new' style better!

First, there was a brief five minute period of sketching for basic composition and structure.
Then there was about thirteen minutes of final line drawing. After that was everything else >_>'

Like Anton said, my last "style" was mostly just me trying out Rick's style for myself. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery; but now I've felt I should show what my real style looks like.

@Everyone & Ebly: Thank you guys, very much

I like that I am separate to everybody
Makes me feel special

Silly Ebly, you've always been special.
It's just that now you're officially special, what with being a moderator and all =3

This is what Max looks like, if I draw him with my style;

It's messy 'cause 1) it's a sketch, 2) I'm still not used to draw with my tablet. D:

I may outline and colour it soon with Photoshop. o:

Ebly · Post by **Ebly** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 3:11 am

Man, tablets are hard to get used to - but despite that, you still draw better than most people here! Definitely a good artist.

RaptorAnton · Post by **RaptorAnton** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 5:46 am

I like his nose))

Same here, I just cant seem to get outlining to look good.
NickCole's style is really nice

, looking forward in seeing the outlined version

Jack · Post by **Jack** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 9:08 am

muffins and cookies thats a nice sketch of max. i have been trying so hard to get the muzzle right in all my drawings but its just not working out for me.

NickCole · Post by **NickCole** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 10:54 am

Here is the outlined and flat coloured version;

Sadly, I'm not fully satisfied with it. D: It looks...SOOOOO OFF. I'm still a noob at colouring.

Dylan · Post by **Dylan** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 11:07 am

Wow! That looks so good NickCole!

And finally more Maxwell!

ArgentFlame · Post by **ArgentFlame** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 11:07 am

Nick, that is awesome. I especially like how you did the eyes.

NickCole · Post by **NickCole** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 11:21 am

Sadly, I liked the sketch more. D: I don't know why but it always turns out bad when I outline and colour it, but there's a rare chance it doesn't, so I prefer the sketch.

But thanks anyway~

The Game · Post by **The Game** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 12:10 pm

Really NickCole, that's a nice drawing! Be thankful you don't draw like me...it's truly a blessing:D

Jack · Post by **Jack** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 1:26 pm

wow. awesome art thingy you got there. that is really great.

Don't be shy, your picture is awesome. To finish it you need only "burn" and "dodge" tools in PH and two minutes to use it. Then even you (why are you so critical to yourself?) would like it...
p.s. I wouldn't say about shading, but your picture is big and that fact, that there are no shades, becomes obvious))
p.p.s. Oh yes, and there must be darkness inside of the bell.

perhaps, but the eye and the style is very original, and thats what i like about it.

RaptorAnton · Post by **RaptorAnton** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 2:58 pm

So, I was insolent enough to work on your picture))

Not very accurate, but it took me two minutes, as I promised. Well, three actually, I also added background ))

As I allways said: "When you see that you failed with copying style - just call it your own style"))

p.s. Also, this could be easily turned into a cool avatar:

Kyderra · Post by **Kyderra** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 4:40 pm

but I think NickCole was still working on it,
looks good do,

Absolutely, Kyderra. You had no right to say that. How dare you.

As I just said:
NickCole's Max is very-very-very-very-very AWESOME!!!
(To tell the truth, I only wanted to make an avatar from his pic, but white background seemed to me dull and I've added some color and shading...)

NickCole · Post by **NickCole** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 7:25 pm

@Everyone: I'm glad you like it then, Thanks! xD

@Anton: I don't really use the Burn or Dodge tool, except when I'm colouring the eyes, 'cause I often mess the drawing up. D: But I'll try again.

And here's another quick doodle of Peanut before I head off to class;

You guys can do whatever you like with it, EXCEPT CLAIMING THAT YOU DREW THAT. ~~I'llhuntyou.~~

Kyderra · Post by **Kyderra** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 7:28 pm

JAJ! another great work of art

also, i do not think he uses burn/dodge, but rather a new layer with light and dark tones
(or at least, thats how i do it)

very curious to see the outlined version of it

NickCole · Post by **NickCole** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 7:41 pm

Here's a SMALL teaser about the colouring.

Sadly, I LOVE colouring and drawing the eyes. D: I tend to make them...shiny.

Jack · Post by **Jack** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 7:46 pm

i don't care if it looks lousy and is made with paint, this was a lot of fun to do.

Dylan · Post by **Dylan** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 7:50 pm

Peanut...He may be a dog, but I love him anyway!

Again, nice work Nickcole! Now if you excuse me, I'm going to hug the computer screen.

Jack · Post by **Jack** » Sun Feb 07, 2010 7:54 pm

his eyes... so shiney. i just wanna go there and put him on my head.

I know you guys are really enjoying your real fanart, but here's another half-hearted derivative work from me!

Alex · Post by **Alex** » Mon Feb 08, 2010 5:01 am

NickCole, that's some really awesome fanart you got there

. I can't wait to see colored version of Peanut, if you're gonna do it.

Ebly · Post by **Ebly** » Mon Feb 08, 2010 5:56 am
