ART POSTING

(Subject not going through....Third time's the charm...??)

Art stuff thread starting...NOW!  If you draw stuff, you can post it here! I draw in a sort of anime/manga/toon style, but if you don't, don't let that stop you from posting your stuff!  I would love to see other people's art so post away!  They can be OCs, fan art, or just random stuff.  You can use any media, including digital, like I do!  Just to let you chatterboxers know, I started this thread so we can share our tricks of the trade with each other.  Feel free to: ask questions about how to draw certain things, post techniques, share art, and mostly HAVE FUN!  If you draw your OCs, feel free to share information about them such as their names and that sort of thing.  Same goes for fan art since not all of us know where these characters are from.  You don't have to be polished with your art.  I myself am just a beginner at anime/manga/toon.  I'm not good at hands so if any of my hands looks particularly cruddy, you know why.  I also struggle sometimes with feet so same goes for that.  If any of you know how to draw a particularly good hand or foot, feel free to share your trick for it.

Going to post a picture of my OC, Tuxedo, if this post goes through okay.

@Mei-xue: Those Chinese outfits are really nice!  I love the flowing lines!  And I love seeing the different styles.  My OC named Spirit Crowcat wears an outfit that is inspired by kimonos, so it was really nice to see your pictures. Is there a specific name for those outfits?  Kimono is a Japanese term, and these are Chinese.  By the way, I like the fact that you included historical information. I don't really know much about Chinese history so that was a nice addition.  :)

@Cho C.: I really like your blue manga mermaid. It looks like she's actually moving! I've been trying to make my characters look like they're moving, and I think I sort of pulled it off in a body art of Petra that I'm currently working on. I also like the way you did the design on the MLP picture. It's like Zecora with a bit of a twist! I personally am not good at drawing ponies, but the only way to get better is to practice, I guess! And those dragons and charries look cool. I really like the colors that you chose. 

@Mei-hua: Those manga girls are so pretty! The first one had a very cute expression, and the other was so elegant. The eyes on the first one must have been very hard. I know from experience how difficult it is to make them look gradient.  And your manga mermaid, like Cho's, is so kawaii. I love the way her hair, like Cho's mermaid, is flowing. I hope I learn to make hair flow in my drawing class. Oh --  I liked your cherry blossoms too.  They actually made me think of the cherry-like blossoms that were on a tree in my backyard. The blossoms have already fallen off so this picture brightened my day.

@Bluebird: I'm glad you like my ideas. I'm hoping that other people will too and join you in drawing activity 1. Going to post the rest of the Kite pics in a bit.

Thanks Lap! (Love your age field) Let me tell you, that was my first time attempting to draw a pony. However it did take me about a day to get the sketch right. 

For some reason, if I'm doing something else while drawing, I always end up making them look like their moving. O.o

Wow! Someone needs to teach me how to draw manga!

@ Lap- I absolutely love your style. Grrr... I wish I could draw cartoons!

P.S. Has anyone heard of Viria? She draws a lot of Percy Jackson fan art, and she is soooooo good!

I just searched her! I love her drawing of Rachel Dare. Younger CBers- be warned that her work isn't always appropriate.
