Aww, colouring's something you just really have to practice and have patience with. The smaller the picture, the easier, I think; I hate colouring massive blocks, especially if it's all the same colour (which is why I never draw backgrounds). And, I think, the more colours you use, the better it'll look.

Same here. It's hard to make all the lines go in one general direction and not make then break in the middle when coloring large blocks; if you somehow mess up, it's really easy to see.

Paint Bucket tool/Fill tool FTW.

Oooh! Arylett has downloaded Paint.NET.

She likes it. A lot. It's got Paint's simplicity (and easy-to-draw-outlines-with-ness) with GIMP's pretty tools like Transparency and the Wand~ But it seems to lack an airbrush. D= Nooo, not the airbrush! I use that a lot.

Paint.NET is awesome.

I've heard about the wonders of the airbrush, but I never used it before, since I don't have any great computer art programs... Maybe I should go find some random demo version of some expensive art program or something. Hmm...

Answering Eclipse's question... I usually draw whatever I'm currently obsessed in, Linoones, wings, flying things (birds, airplanes, dragons, etc.), and random Pokemon.

I KNOW >,< Don't you just hate it when that happens? I would draw on my homework (bad habit. GO AWAY MOM) and the picture will turn out to be more awesome than usual. But I'll have to erase it because it's on my homework. That's why I usually keep a small pile of scratch paper on my table so when I have an urge to doodle, I can actually keep the art if it ends up to be good.

So I wasn't the only one? xDD
But for me, it's my school notes. Luckily the teachers never check, so I can doodle as often as I want. :D

Also, I was thinking about making an audio skit featuring all the members of the OS. You don't have to give me samples of your voice or anything, since I could edit my own voice to make it seem different from the rest.
Then again, I need your permission to do this. Or better yet, I won't do it at all, if you want. |D
 
In response to Eclipse's question: I draw myself. A lot. In weird crazy clothes. I used to not draw me that much, but now I find me drawing me very increasingly. And Pokémon and dogs. Lots of dogs. Birds too, I like to draw birds and wings.

I would do the voice thing! With my OWN voice even~ You don't have to imitate me, I love recording crazyawesome things~ And there's several in the voice thread.
 
Yaay~ You'd make a great addition Arylett. Thanks. :D

...

Zora, your voice is really, really awesome. It's like a voice I'd expect in a movie or something. :DDDDDD

EDIT:
Concerning the skit, and assuming that 1/3 of the club could participate, I should go and make the skit now... Oh, and to give a feel of what the skit is going to be about, I shall give you a sentence about it:
USE THE HOLY HAND GRENADE
...
Well... eh... ^^;

You mean that? It always seems to sound too deep for a girl when I hear it. :/

No, not as in those pretty models with the most puffiest hair in the world, but like those sort of gruff women who seem to have the best lines in the world. :D
...
Okay, that did not make much sense. Please ignore me. D:

I can't seem to find the voice thread, mostly because I think I'm going into the wrong forum. Help?

Well, I can't argue with that. x3

And I think you want this thread. >>

I've been into traditional colouring for a while now, and at first I hated it because I kept making mistakes but now when I use a shade that's darker than what I wanted or if the colours start bleeding I'm all 'ffuuuuccckk' and just grab the right shade and scribble like crazy, or I draw something over it to camouflage my mistake.

Eclipse said:
Which reminds me...
I wonder if Photoshop has the airbrush. That'd be epic in a sort.
Click to expand...
Yep, Photoshop has the airbrush. It's kind of hard to find, but it's there.

Oh speaking of which, what do you guys draw often? I tend to like making really fuzzy hair, or practice eyes. Other then that, I doodle. :D
Click to expand...
Nazis. And gays. Also men, or politicians. Often combinations of these things :v
Oh and I like to do portraits and caricatures if someone's blind enough to ask for some.
And I do comics a lot, I guess.

I once drew Hitler cutting himself with a rainbow shooting out of his wrist on my English paper on Animal Farm because I was bored/distracted, but luckily my teacher didn't bat an eyelid :v

Audio skit is go. Here's me talking about fashion or whateverrrr i am the coolest guy

I do that too! School notes, class worksheets, homework... If you look closely, you can see eraser and pencil marks on most of my work. It is a good thing that teachers never check my notes.

YES. JOINAGE PL0X.

.... I would give you a voice sample if I know how to record voices. Err... Help?
 
I agree with Eclipse about your voice, Zora! It sounds exactly like she described! Oooh, awesomenocitycool.

And whooo, Linoone, you have some voice on you! I really like it. You sound cute. (I know, this sounds sort of weirdly phrased. But uhh, Arylett says things weird.)

Putin's voice is sweetenocity. I like it~

Also umm, voice sample here. PREPUBESCENT BOY. Wheee, at least I'll be a funny-sounding addition to the team! I do my own voice acting, hmm.

To stay on topic, Zora's cake picture makes me snacker so much. X3

Don't have any way to record my voice....but I sound kinda young, angry, odd....and a girl...

Will you upload it to youtube?
 
I guess I could do this with my unmanly voice. :c There are some clips of me in the voice thread; one where I'm reciting a daffodils poem and another one where I'm talking about a snickers bar or something. It's all good.
