Wow you did a great job with this picture. The lining and colouring were just great. Its really awesome to see Linali better. I dont think you did too badly on her. Keep up the good work.

thanks , although I think the eyelashes could've turned out better since I got the shape wrong. i think linali turned out better than allen though.

thanks lina , have you tried using a soft brush to shade? You can get shading like mine then , gaussian blur works too. The sparkles and flowers were just brushes but yeh I like them too .

the soft brush is next to the normal circle ones (you know the circle bruhses with the faded outsides), I suggest only for skin and shiny things though since it makes clothes look weird sometimes.

If I were you Lina, I would try the gaussian blur method. What you do is shade like normally have on a different layer (so the shade and skin colour are on seperate layers), then select the shade layer and gaussian blur it to your liking. I find it gives the same effect as the soft brush method. Also if the blur goes out of your lines, you could always magic wand your skin layer and then blur it so it doesn't go out of the lines. I can make a small tutorial for you if you don't understand what I just , since I can't explain things well .

I like your simple shading lina, good for chibis and such . Oh (kind of a request ) do you have any pics of Leon's Chaltier? I need it for my next pic , I got idea from playing a fanmade game . Although I can draw the pic since I broke my wrist .

my wrist will get better don't worry about it, thanks though . I would like pics of him in the swordian form please but some human pics would be nice if you got any, thanks in advance.

I'll post ithe tutorial (like the lineart one) on tales forum in the fanart thread ok? I would make a piccy but I find it lags when it loads, I could pm the tutorial to you if you like as well.

I'll make the tutorial as soon as my wrist starts moving again .
