I dont know if i can post this, but i didnt read nutting against it in the thread rules, so here it is, a page of a comic that i will never finish, if someone has the time and wants to ink this at Xara, it would be AWESOMEEEEE. Thanks for watching, and comments will always be important for my improvement. Greetings from Tijuana Mexico.
Are you requesting that a Xara employee finish some work for you?Quote:

Please give a reason why you'd like someone to complete work that you can't finish yourself?
You might not have read it explicitly in the Forum Rules and although I can't speak for Xara staff, TalkGraphics does not do 'freebies' - sorry.
looks like a zine [comic book] page to me - are there others, why just this one?
a lot of work here to finish this
@SLEDGER - Steve, it look blurry because it is pencilling [or equivalent ] - hence the request to 'ink', ie put in the black lines; and then color....
Thanks Steve - I know what Inking implies ;)
yes I am sure you do, just 'filling in the detail' [:D] for those who may not ;)
touchy Beings these Divine Masters it would seem BTW
.......I have no idea whether the protagonist in the drawing is meant to be a 'divine master' [of whatever type as there are many] or not, and in any case my Spanish is pretty ropey , so I could have got it wrong
In other words - I have no real idea of the mood or the setting or the direction in which this piece goes - what the atmosphere is
All these things would make it very difficult to render it well
Still it is not actually that difficult a technique - I did the attached just to practice a couple of things - its all vector, the lines in epression 3 [but you could use another program], and the coloring in xtreme
yes I know the inking is a bit rough and ready - I did not spend too much time on it you understand :D
if you want to give it a go yourself we will be here to advise :)
Sorry if you guys got me wrong, AND YES THIS IS MY WORK, this character has been on my sketches for a long while ago, you can see some works i early made here http://mx.geocities.com/wcrsnipers/turoks_index.html, just click at GALERIA and you can start watching some works i made, why it wouldnt be mine? (I really dont understand the point of your question), and im not requesting any Xara employee to finish my work, the only thing i want, is if someone has the time to put some color into this, it would be great, by the way its just one page, didnt mean to make this a comic page, originally i started drawing the cat with the sword and then i realized that i could make this a comic page. Here is the link for this page at deviantart http://turoks.deviantart.com/art/Ink...eame-129024220 (You can watch the other drawing if you like). By the way i post some vector that a friend of mine added. Oh i almost forgot: "Y con divina maestria rebanaba a todo aquel que se cruzaba" = And with divine skills, it sliced everyone that came in front of his road.Quote:

I really like the rendering you have posted - very good
Thank you also for the comment on my 'quickies' :)
Of course all experienced renderers have their own style - which brings us to the question: why do you want another one done? - Is the one you posted not right in some way?
Incidently - to my eye there is something a bit wrong with the top half of the unfortunate slicee with respect to his/her bottom half.
At first I thought it was that the body was the wrong way round - but its an unnatural head and arm positioning I think, that is giving me this impression.
Anyway it is good work - thanks for posting it up
[Sledger was only doing his moderator thing by asking if it was your own]
Why do i want another done? I just want to see how it will look. BTW, color its not my thing.
okay - looking back at the pencilling there is no problem - its the face that is too indistinct in the colored version - this is just a quibble, easy to fix :)
I see that you have licensed this under creative commons on DA Ben, I might just give a go there - could put in some good practice
Boy the tone on these forums has changed for the worse. All i seem to read of late is someone being attacked for posting, asking a question or having a difference of opinion. I for one would hate to be a new member and have to ask how to do something. No wonder half uf us choose not to post.Quote:

Read the OP, there were no "How do I do this?" questions.
An unsubstantiated comment :rolleyes:Quote:

whatever my statement stands, I still think the old Moderators had a little bit more patients than you, rather than slamming the forum rules down everyones throat when you disagree on a post.
Has the heat up in QLD got to you or something.
