Description heh, sorry for the really cheezy pun ....... in any event, this is my first attempt at using the pen tool in Photoshop to work on a pic. ~ dehumanization was a great help to me while i was toying with this one. also, to anyone who's going to ask, it's true i didn't put in the other eye. no, it's not an oversight, i'm just more lazy than i gave myself credit for.....

one last thing to mention, this was an experiment. i think it looks cool. so by all means, please enjoy!

for being the first person to realize i mentioned that before anyone else, you get a big !!! it was mostly just a test/trial type of pic. it's more solid lineart than i've ever gotten before.......

yes, it's been way too long! it's easy once you get used to some of the tools n stuff. but then again, i'm still just a novice..... heh. I'm happy to see you like it, though.

TheDrag [2004-11-22 21:55:43 +0000 UTC]

Heh I agree with Mr. Mario man there on that one for the eye. I love the lighting on it it's really pretty neat. That ear port thing looks really cool. I dunno why i like that one part more than anything else.

astroXLR In reply to TheDrag [2004-11-23 09:40:22 +0000 UTC]

for the love of god, can't you forgive one eye?! figures..... anyway, i tried to be careful with the light source and the flat color. next time i'll go for a full body type of thing. and no, i don't intend to put in another eye. just deal with it! man, i probably sound like a jerk........

bumman [2004-11-22 20:24:45 +0000 UTC]

Props on the pen tool man. Looks like you're really starting to get the hang of it! I still say you should give him the other eye though, heh. (Or at least make that side of his face completely black and give him like an evil glowy eye )

astroXLR In reply to bumman [2004-11-23 09:11:16 +0000 UTC]

yeah, yeah, yeah....... 'the other eye' that's all i hear from you guys! you know you're not the first, right? an evil glowey eye would look much better on Bass than on megaman! and yes, i have practiced using photoshop's pen tool. it has been interesting to say the least!

dehumanization [2004-11-22 17:21:06 +0000 UTC]

Looks like you're getting the hang of the photoshop pen tool pretty quick. I've known people that I've explained everything in detail in person and they never got what to do (like when I was in college and people would beg me for help). Good job, buddy.

MisterIngo [2004-11-22 13:01:10 +0000 UTC]

Great work with the colours. they give a good overall 3D shape to it. Only thing I would like to critique on is the lack of the eye on the left side. No matter how small, it should always be there.

astroXLR In reply to MisterIngo [2004-11-23 08:48:53 +0000 UTC]

yes, i know the eye should be there, but i really don't like cluttering up my work space that much. we acn call it style. cause it's certainly not me being lazy....... is it wierd that i mentioned that without a prompt?
