do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

Well, okay, so she doesn't have big big guns, but they're kinda big, anyway.
And if you don't know what I mean, see fer yaself :P

And, ofcourse, detail on the guns she's weilding.

I know, it was drawn kinda quickly and without too much direction, which kinda ruined it.  I still kinda like her, though.  The guns could prolly have been drawn better.

Yay for big guns!

cooking something up, I'll post when its done and scanned.

By the way, Turnsky do you recommend I go over the final lineart in think black marker before scanning, and then erase as best I can all the sketchy lines and so forth? I'm always reading about people using India Ink pens and all these sophisticated sounding items which I have no idea what they are, all I gots is a thing Sharpie type deal.

for lineart? these:


i use a gel ink ball-point for foxfire, only 'cause it's more durable for the speedy inkwork i usually have to do for the comic.

Up until my house ate it (like 6 months ago), I used a .05 mm Copic as my liner. :P
As far as I've seen, though I'm prolly wrong, there's not much difference between the Copics and Pigmas, aside from colour selection.

I dunno, it depends what you're shooting for.  One picture I drew awhile back I just rough sketched pencil, then went over it with a small sepia pen, and left the pencil in.  Some, I ink with a pen, erase the graphite, then colour.  And I've never used India inks, before.  I'm still in the position where I don't know what half (more than...)that stuff is.  Best to work with what looks good to you.  If there 're lotsa little details or something, I wouldn't suggest a big marker :P  On the other hand, if you want it to have thick lines, go on ahead.
Personally, I wouldn't go larger than a 0.5 mm pen for line art, but that's just me.

Have fun with your art, and enjoy creating!

WIP, but you get the idea



Now, in her left hand she could either be holding a flag or some sort of flare/grenade. Any ideas? I wasn't really thinking when I drew it. I could put that nice world domincation thing I drew up on the flag...

edit: Is it clear that she is holding a gun, or does it look like she has a "gun hand" like megaman? I thought it was pretty clear that the gun is obscuring her hand, that why you don't see it, but then again I drew it so I'm not a casual observer.

Piss off:D :D

She's clearly got everything in place to be a female. Just don't like to overdo it. Plus, the waist is too small for a guy. And the hair and lips.

You've been watching to much anime, with chicks on unreal and unappealing proportions ;);)

I coloured the WIP, just for kicks. I'm going to re-scan the picture when I've done he lineart in pen or marker, so please keep in mind that this lineart is very, very rough and messy. Some of the colouring wil probably change as well.
