I'm with Nya on this one. I don't think it looks bad at all... almost cool, actually. besides, MSPaint is great for pixel things. but not for things with soft lines and such.

personally I think you should get oC, coloring paper sketches in oC really looks cool with the paper texture.

oC? *Googles* crap, just a bunch of links to that dumb Fox show...

Anyway, yeah, it's not like eye rape bad, but I hate the color palette, plus it's all pixelly. But I'm gonna have to wait until school starts to use a computer with Photoshop again.

Open Canvas is amazing.
I just wish I had the talent to use it properly.

Inferno-Suicune.png


My first inferno. Is it good?

I'll get straight to the point:

PILLOW SHADING = NO.

I hate hate hate pillow shading, it looks so bad and unrealistic. Dx

I don't think bad, but you probably should have done it more like an infra-red picture... not everything's going to glow yellow.

also Nya, that's pretty much an opinion... mine is too.

Yeah, I think the big flowy ...thing on its back could be dark red or something. For instance.

What's that?

Pillow shading is when you shade it so all the edges are darker than the center. It creates a gradual fade towards the center and looks horribly un-realistic on almost everything. See the legs, mane-thing, head crystal-thing, head, neck for major visualization of it.

And to show I've done it too:

Not the best example, but omg old dolling/pixel art is old...
Ignore the body (It was a base) and the Hair (have never really pillow shaded that).

Seeee~ xD

(btw, yus both are girls)

infernos are supposed to look like that iirc .__.;

Pillow shading is bad bad bad, and something like that shouldn't be promoting people to doing that. =3= But this is coming from the girl who also hates fusions with a passion. I won't go into detail unless someone wants me to write the rant. :p

"Kid's got some skills."

It's ok, I HATE 98% of my old stuff.
But I just can't bring myself to get rid of it. It has a weird charm to it...

Yeah, every inferno I've ever saw looked like that. Y'know, lighter as you go in.

ugh, then someone needs to teach whoever started that thing that pillow shading is bad. =3=

It even looks bad when you're pixeling PILLOWS. xD

You know, I almost want to write a little rant on fusions and the like on my blog, but urgh I know so many people like fusions I don't want to be starting flames for stating my opinion on them, I just like to say what I think and get it out of my head and onto something.
