I'mpicking a toon I did for the logo for my 'dragons and dolls' page.

Should I go with the cartoony or hard-bit? Here are four b&w sketches before I color em' up

Your the man :thumbsup

I like them all but for a logo I would go with #3. It would be a great t-shirt too :Graucho

Thanks fellas!

I didn't know how far I could go with these but when I posted the original pencil sketches on my site that page got hit alot so I go with the flow.

I'm gonna follow your suggestions.

I'm also gonna push the envelope too. See how griddly I can get.

Now wait til tomorrow when I post color versions!

nice!!!!
use the hard bit!:thumbsup

Thanks! Encourage me before I chicken out!

Believe you me when I say that your sentiment is shared.

Hunh?

do you color all your stuff in photoshop

just wondering

you rock!! it looks really good
great job :thumbsup

Sometimes. I use a combination of programs to achieve specific effects. This color version was the 'fast mode' I'll do another one with more bite to it.

Believe it or not, some very cheap and free paint programs/graphic programs can achieve a wonderful effets that the big boys can't do.

nice:thumbsup

Thanks Nezster!

I'm laffing my ass off because on another message board I posted the same question and one guy got into an in depth critique on how I should have colored the dragon's boner.

It was sooo funny I wish I could put it on a t-shirt. He even did his own version in color and it's priceless! Glad to have that kind of input. ( d'oh! )

You are now in my power...sleeep...sleeep...

Great work
How long does it take you to color one?

Thanks! Coloring time varies on complexity and other factors. Some works that appear to take for hours can be only a few minutes.

These are all really good, looks like your technique has really improved. Nice job :thumbsup

Okay here's the last one.

I reckon your sketches are great, but i don't like the colouring at all. I think you'd have much better results with solid colours and shading.
