Description So while agonizing over the woes of digital inking I looked to YouTube for some SAI videos to see how skilled artists do their lineart.

I still don't get it.

The fact that every video was 5x speed didn't help either, but all that quickity made me want to attempt to ink like I -think- the other artists did. I think I failed, bwop.

So I spat this out in a little under an hour. I dunno. Whatchu guys think? Am I just overstressing about lineart? And that lineart doesn't -have- to be robotically crisp and smooth to make a good overall image? Is that growth on my butt malignant?

Thanks for stopping by!

lol, some tutorials really don't help at all. That's basically why I only look up the basics and then just try shit - and despair if I can't figure out the rest .

So you use SAI now, too? It's a great program for lineart I think, photoshop (at least my version) makes it hard to get un-wobbly lines. SAI's option to edit your lines by dragging certain parts is a lifesaver sometimes.
And the curve tool can make so wonderfully smooth lines ^.^

uhm... I should actually comment on the drawing, right?
I like the hair A LOT and the shading looks really nice - although I wouldn't have put such a big shade on the very top of her head since the light source seems to be above
Also I'm always amazed when hands actually look like hands I want that skill, too

It's not all that difficult o u o
I just don't like it cause sketching and lining is the most boring part of a picture for me >u>

Anyways, this is cute~
And you might wanna see someone 'bout that butt of yours.

Logically yes. I just can't help but wonder sometimes whether there's some technique or tidbit of knowledge that greater talent posseses though. In all the videos I've seen -no one- does it like me either so I wonder all the more.

The growth seems friendly enough. His name is Charles and he speaks like a distinguished english butler.

Isn't that a good thing though? It just means your style is even more your own :3

Does he like crumpets and tea?
