I usually don't come to this side of the forums, but i must say:

ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR WORK!! KEEP IT UP!

They are BEAUTIFUL~~

Thanks man, I'll draw you some boobies for that. (and for Jessy)

What about for me?!?!

;____________;

Here's how I do it:

Go to Channels. There's a icon of a dotted circle that says "load channel as selection." Click that then invert the selection. Then go to Edit > Fill with whatever color you want.

hey thanks fellow Filipino user.

(same goes to you, naz!)

As promised, BOOBS!

Not the boobs I had in mind. Not at all. Nice (EVIL!) art, but NOT NICE BOOBS. ;__;

Did this while waiting for a download to finish. The original picture looked so beautiful, so I tried drawing it. I guess you can call this my first "portrait".

Nice, the line work looks spot on. If you could just push the chiaroscuro (the transition between light and dark) aspect of the shading further, it would be just perfect. :3

I just choked oh my drink when I scrolled onto the zombie boob picture. Thanks man. Haha, but those two pieces are great. What Magi said about the transition is great and all, but I like the sharp contrast.

Do you mind posting a link to the picture that inspired it? I'm kind of curious of how it looks/differs from your interpretation, if at all.

Awesome job, btw.

Another one I did while waiting for a download to finish. Took me about an hour, and a bit more for the cleaning. I'm doing these for familiarizaiton of the anatomy structure of the female body. I'm still learning. Reference is a Heidi Klum pic.

I still can't draw hands :(

Easily the best one in a while. :p

There's supposedly other things one can do to familiarize himself with the anatomy structure of the female body, but drawing is probably the best way.

I am still at school, so I couldn't really view it in full size to make specific critques. >.>;;

Do you use anatomy books? You can really use some shading exercises, because those exercise doesn't just help you learn how to render forms, but also force you to think of human forms in the sense of light and dark, and how different form effects lights that travels throughout a surface of a structure, and then it would make it easier to construe shapes from different angle that way. :3

I also gotta admit, I am not the best of hand drawer, however, you can always use your own hand as a model, and often people make a full sheets of drawing just of hands. Drawing hands could be fun, because there are a lot of expression that can come from the hand, be it compositional and emotional expression.

Man, I've always wanted that drawing anatomy book at the bookstore. So far, I just refer from pictures or other drawings just to determine where shadows should go. Books are still a great way to learn things, I just don't have the money to buy one (or more).

As for hands, male hands are no problem, you can draw them as rough as you can, it's the female hands that I'm having difficulties with :( They look ugly if they have MAN-HANDS. So, I'm trying to fix that.

Also, if you noticed, my lines are VERY DIRTY, I can't seem to make clean lines at all. I have shaky hands, that's why most of my drawings don't have that much curves. :(

Wonder Girl. Tried doing inks again. Still having a hard time doing them. Always had a hard time doing them. There's a couple of errors in this one, hope you see them. Comments, suggestions, tips, etc, are very much welcomed.

Great stuff, Vemp. Look forward to more pictures of RUE!!

Thanks Jessy! Here's something for you:

I forgot I can't draw guns, so 50% of the time was wasted on drawing the gun.

Vemp, can you draw a.. say, 4 page mini comic? I love your art, but even better if it's compiled into something. =p

What you lack in gun-drawing ability you more than make up for in other drawing abilities... :p

Artist of the year!

hey naz, this one's for you:

http://www.opimage.co.uk/u/daikon/th_sg.jpg

no gun though.

Damn it, the more of your work I see, the more I envy your artistic ability. >:[

Don't envy me, I don't have a girlfriend :(

Yeah, I know. All those women you bring home on a daily basis leaves the next morning. Just when will you take one of them as your girlfriend?

Dude, Vemp, that's... that's...

FUCKING AWESOME!!!

I love you, seriously. I want to turn straight for you right now.
