Description

O.K. I did my homework this time....i found a really cool anime site with member art and examples and explanations of what manga and anime is and what is important in a character..and i wanted to thank Mcafee2000 for pointing out my obvious misunderstanding of what this style of art intailed..It has such a deaper meaning than just being a cartoon.and i look at it in a whole diffferent way now. The technique i used here i found in a Tutorial by snowsultan ..it is such a cool way to do this..you parent your character and clothes to a Ball(primative)then parent the ball to a box(primative)then you shrink your Z scale down to 18% in the box flattening your character and clothes..Then you use the ball to turn your character without loosing perspective or seeing the flattness..it is pretty amazingly well thought out..and looks pretty close to what i wanted...i then used a filter called Poster edges to get the stiff gradient and pronounced lines. I liked the last image i did but i see now i really couldnt call it anime as the style is to complex and busy..now that i have some guidlines i think i wont make that mistake again.Hope you enjoy..

Incredible! I don't know that there are any mistakes in art, but as artists we do continue to learn and grow, and your ability to create so many different works of art is a testament to that. I think you've captured the Anime look so brilliantly and the colours are so incredibly done. Astounding artwork!
