...I love my tablet. ;___; *curls up to Jen*



This one is the jacket 'complete'. Of course, it totally isn't yet. I just did the basic shading. There are no wrinkles, and the white part hasn't been touched yet. XD I think I have to save the white for last. Once again, the fur is going to murder me in my sleep.

Aaaaaaaand with some pants shading. Haven't done any erasing or even come halfway with the shading, either. Oh well. See my progress \o/ I did the jacket and pants today. The skin I did some color changes on. The hair is still fail. Ignore it.

Ooooh. Nice, subtle shading. Good work.

You may beat me for this but...I kinda like the bold, clean look it had without the shading. D: It was really fresh.

It looks even MORE subtle on my laptop screen. =_= Damnit. The colors and intensity look so different, it annoys me.

*beats you again*

I may try to color it again another time, when I feel like tackling cell shading properly. I think my style would look best cell shaded, but I just suck at it... it looks weird to me without blending.

XD Then practice! Actually I thought you were going to cell shade it when I saw it. Either way, it does look nice. :3

Looks amazing so far!If you need any help or tips I'll gladly offer what I can :3 Other than that, looks fucking amazing so far.

I am. D8 But I have time to do both styles. Wana finish this one first. The other requires MORE lines... orz

8D Thank you. I'm working on it. \o/

Though I do have a question! When you're doing wigs and need to get one of those crazy styles? What do you use to make it stay put? Hairspray? Hair glue?

[identity profile] soundninjakin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 02:34 am (UTC)(link)
Wasn't..expecting that kind of question XD.

I usually use a combination of both. Depends on the fibers in the wig, too. Usually glue holds wigs nicely but it gives it a bit of a tackey appearance up close.

Hairspray is good but there's this hairspray glue that works wonders.

8D A friend of mine is doing an Angel cosplay and he wanted to find a way to make a crazy hairstyle. Do you have a brand of hairspray glue?

[identity profile] soundninjakin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
Yup! It's Schwarzkopf: got2b glues blasting freeze spray.

It's in a bright yellow can so you can't miss it. :3

[identity profile] kageisuke.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
...XD wtf brand is that? I'll google it and let him know.

Haha, he won't miss it. I would, I bet.

[identity profile] soundninjakin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah reading it I was like "wtf is a Schwarzkopf".

It's a pretty normal brand though! So you should be able to find it no problem. If it's for insane spikes, then you're gonna want to hold the hair up and spray from top to bottom.

[identity profile] kageisuke.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
Top to bottom? Why that way?

[identity profile] soundninjakin.livejournal.com 2008-10-05 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
holds the tip the strongest since that's going to be where most of the weight and gravity is in spikes.

I shall trust your experience. 8| Not like I have any idea what would work anyway. *rolls away*
