terley Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 making a freebie for jakey (teenageloser) cus he donated loads in my time of need :shock: :wink: His brief minus character descriptions; Outside, on a street, street lights on. Outside, arm around his shoulder and his around mine, in close background, the a lighted up sign saying "Pub" and other buildings up and down the street. Nothing else, you can think of. Make it look like a street in england though, so you get the idea mate. Have us both smiling/laughing with a mugs of beer in our hands. Just the layout blocked out, not using linework. Done a face and hands, man Terley, you gotta speed up... (talking to myself again :? ) Crits would be really useful, tell me what you think of the layout :) . Atm im gonna work on the characters, worry about the background later, but im hoping of having some other characters / objects behind. cheers :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misterxman Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Nice technique with making silouettes first, cool angle on the BG. Looking a bit drunk there from the way the characters leaning. :P Pixel sigs by me.Pixel Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terley Posted February 18, 2006 Author Share Posted February 18, 2006 This is how my last sig turned out, to those who may think its a bad technique. To.. Thx xman, theyre on the way back from the pub, so I was going for an angled perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdprs Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Not a bad way to start them it seems. I always just draw them on paper then scan, i find that works best for me. Anyway, you sigs look sweet, hope this ones good too http://jdpr.deviantart.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, you sigs look sweet, hope this ones good too I do draw it out first, just don't go by linework. blocking it out simplifies everything so I can work section at a time. Going by the original drawing sometimes means the end result can be brought down by the drawing quality. More booze is a great Idea LP. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punc Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 It looks like a complicated way to start, but looking at your previous one an effective way indeed. Can't wait to see the complete version :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortress2000 Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Good technique. I think I used the hardest technique for my sig. Makeing it completely on MS Paint. Nothing else. Writing in colour was fun while it lasted...The Tip.It. Furry! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemonfish Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Good technique. I think I used the hardest technique for my sig. Makeing it completely on MS Paint. Nothing else. Most people use ms paint. As you can tell from above terley uses it and I do too. Also mxm does but that's offtopic. Really liking it but I think it's a bit early to post progress. P.S Fortress, i quite like your signature for some reason. It's simple and the shadows are nice. Dunno why though it just cathces my eye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
