    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Ymo's art-thread (Heavy images(?))

A) Overshaded is when too large parts of the body are shaded, but mainly when a certain part is much darker than it should be.

B) Could i have Lars(turtwig), in a pose somewhat like the Pt sprite's, with a muscle band wrapped around each of his legs?

If so, *asks for a few choice sketches for safety*

*Activates the mighty Choice sketch item*
 
Hmm... D: I think I might have been drawing too much Lars lately... xwx'' Maybe some time later, tho.

Firechao, I did a lineart, are these eyes ok?

They look good to me - as I'm feeling rather perfectionist about it, I'll mention that I'd like it if its expression looked a little less stressed, but it's very good like that!

p.s. thanks for putting up with my incessant grumbling XD
 
maybe - I think the problem is that the lines above his eyes make it look like he has a "furrowed brow" (couldn't think of a better way to put it)
 
EDIT:

-Please could the "CYmo" credit be made smaller so that it fits on to the foot? You will be credited in the footer of all pages either way... maybe you could even just give me a "CYmo" water mark that I could put in the corner of the banner or next to the drawing - its up to you.

-Also, as I'm happy with the whole drawing except the eyes, Pease could you draw it without eyes and then try lots of different eyes on it to give me a range to choose from - or at least save a copy with no eyes so you can easily change his expression if I ask.

Thanks so much for drawing this for me.

Oh, sorry, I didn't see the edit. D:

(The C was just put in there quickly because Im paranoid and I don't want peeps stealing the lineart... ;W; That might happen. I'll put it somewhere else once Im finished.)


I don't really have an idea of what kind of eyes do you want... It's a lot easier for me if you give me guidelines. (The original artwork nor the screen aren't really helpful, since the eyes are just half-circles.)


Im being so slow again, so as an apology, here is an evolving-adoptable bulbasaur:

Uh, CYmo, I've got a question- I've been drwaing a lot lately, and yesterday I had a chance to upload one(okay four) of my pictures on the computer. So my question is: could you by chance 'shade' one of these, errm, creatures?
 
Ah, I've got so much drawing to do already. D: Firechao and one deviantart-friend... Plus more adoptables. xwx'
 
Okay, I'll start doing it right away. <:D
(A lot of the time that goes into making these is actually telling myself to do it- I will never do paid requests, it's just too much work. :P)
 
cool - I'll keep checking back for... however long it takes you to do this kind of thing.

p.s. Squiby is awesome! shame I can't draw...
 
Well, I hope I can get it done today. :P The fire is giving me trouble at the time.

Yeah, squiby is the king! It makes me want to draw pokemon all day for adoptables. :P I'll be doing charmander and squirtle soon~

Edit: Okay, I did a quick cell-shading, and two versions of that! The first one is backlit, which would be realistic for the situation but is a little boring. The second one is a regular one with lighting from the left.
Background is transparent so you can give it a background yourself (Though I can make the black BG if you can't do it yourself.)

I can redo the shading if you wish, and also do a soft version of it.

The eyes have turned out great!

to be honest, I quite like the cel shading...

I can see what you mean about the left one being a little dull - The right one looks better, but I don't like the little mouth he has (the ^ shape).

So, Please could you remove the mouth and maybe make the shading on the forehead a little straighter down? (not stick out quite so much on the forehead and maybe not point in as much between the eyes)

Summed up: change right please: flatter face; no mouth (or whatever the ^ thing is supposed to be XD).

Thanks!

p.s. I can do the background - it's not going to be just on a completely black background anyway as it'll be in a more complex banner than the last...

EDIT: I like your charmander! (it was posted while I was writing this)
 
Thanks alot - it's perfect!

I'll probably ask for some simpler drawings to put on specific pages when I've finished coding the new site...

But for now, feel free to get back to full-on squibbin!
