i dont suggest shelling out that much on a professional standard tablet go for a cheap local one instead i got mine for Indian Rupees 2,500 ( approx USD 50 ) and its not one of those big time branded ones but it is really great. I might buy an expensive wacom later, but for students i recommend cheap ones.

i suggest to make sure u take a tablet trust me, anyone who wants to go into gfx will greatly be benefited by one i know people dont use tablets while pixelling but other stuff sure needs it especially if u airbrush in photoshop

they are linked directly to jagex page so i think jagex is not allowing them to be shown here reuploaded on imageshack ( links in quote changed to imageshack ones )

agreed with nardil too many renders = too confusing and jumbled in most cases you cant guess wheres the start of the particular render and wheres the end i did a sig 500 X 200 with a total 6 renders ( was real crappy but who cares ) but to make sure it was not jumbled, i had 3 renders on one side and 3 on the other and to add up, first side was staring at the second one who was staring back. So it looked like they gonna jump to kill each other any moment but still it was not really good to look at to end up, i will say "too may renders spoil the sig" ( we cant have cooks here can we ? ) :P

These are 2 of my old sketches Drawn with an HB pencil Then inked with a regular black pen and pencil work erased here goes Note : The "Original Image" means the well, original image, but rotated and cropped, without change in dimensions. The "Resized Image" is a resized, smaller version of "Original Image" And the "Photoshopped Image" is a modification of "Original Image", not much modified, only removed the paper and other stuff, kind of like every stray thing removed, and a minor cropping. Just see and u will understand lol 1 ) Take A Look Behind Original Image ( 1.11 MB - 1708 X 2188 ) : Resized Image ( 562 KB - 800 X 1025 ) : Photoshopped Image ( 231 KB - 1672 X 2184 ) : Description : A dragon sitting on a rock kind thing, and a warrior kind of guy jumping out of nowhere from behind to slash him down :D 2 ) Beat Me Up Original Image ( 1.48 MB - 1600 X 1716 ) : Description : A cyborgish guy at the verge of slashing down a noob :D I seem to have lost the resized and photoshopped one of this one :( Yea, i love making fantasy and fights Well thats all for now Made them way back ( not enough time to anything else than study these days - exams in march :D ) Out of the two, i like the first one And they took forever to upload on my ultra slow connection :P C/C Pl0x EDIT: I just photoshopped the Look Behind and it came out pretty good :D Here is the deviant link http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/52247121/

u sure know how to do some good graffiti and yea, i do it all time while taking notes :P the only c/c i have is :- use color and make em in a drawing file instead of notebooks and yea , study :P

great vector and i agree with tjbart - shade and highlight the hair a little. [offtopic]yea i saw his myspace, and his avatar is a rough portrait of him :D

first off... CONGRATZ :D now bout the image well its messing around so i cant give much c/c on it yea but i can say its a lil nice but i sure expect ur future works to be like ur awesome pixels

oh.. come on it cant be that bad oh.. and btw i just noticed that the nose of the goblin looks a lil wierd around the middle

Hi I thought i will try my hand at painting made a nice little goblin no tablet - mouse only around an hour or less heres the original goblin i came up with in the end after tweaking of the hue, saturation and brightness a little, heres what i came up with. looks better according to me oh.. and the wierd alien head another with transparent bg for info on how to make those curvy lines in the alien head, check here c/c plz

the only one i like is the boney hand i dont mean to be rude but the others look like drawn by a real young kid in the dragon one, he looks like a kid coz his face is too big compared to the rest of him the wings look like fixed instead of being able to make him fly click here for help on making wings ( i did not make the tut, its a demon wing tut but works for dragons too ) in the strongest man alive, the anatomy is too off in the expressionless warrior, his anatomy is a lil better, but only of the upper body ( except face of course ) this is all the cc i cud give
