Mezhik: Kate says that it is very cute and she wants to meet him. She promises not to burn the fireballs.
Bakannon: @Geravind: If you're being serious, it's supposed to be a small trowel type object half buried in the kitty litter. If you're being sarcastic, then yes I agree that I could have done better in making it clear what the object is. I will try to improve my drawing of handheld tools in the future.
Kewot_Rokar: I miss Dmitri.
Toryu-Mau: @Bakannon: Because every time someone attempts to draw Dmitri, they are suddenly overcome with "The Feels" and PTSD.
It's a heavy subject to bring up.
Geravind: @Bakannon: No matter, what this one meant. -- Khajiit barely would guess a trowel here, anyway. It can even be a little paper-ship, pounded by a cigar, whatever. -- Lord of plots teaches to interpret anything in all possible ways. Khajiit knows many things, others do not. =*_*=
@Kewot_Rokar: The courier-cat is still on the way, keep your hope. -- There should be at least references about Dmitri hereafter. |

Toryu-Mau: It's practically summer where I'm at, but I made a pumpkin pie anyway. Take that, mother nature! Am I rebellious enough now?!
Vidiotdragon: Introducing New Pumpkin Spice Katia. Because we make that into everything else, so why not?

Ralham: So many good designs to choose from your collection! I don't know which I like the best!
Out of these, I think the two right ones are my favourites. |

Makkon: @Radian: Matt's method is pretty useful, and it is the classic way of doing it. The way I paint is pretty far into left field, but I find it preferable compared to Matt's method that I used to do, wherein I'd find myself getting hung up on details too soon and it was hard to make large changes.
For example, if you need to change the color of your subject, you have a lot of work to do when it's all merged and you have colored directional or ambient light affecting the colors (like in most conditions). Hue-shift or overlay just doesn't cut it. If you want to change the direction of your lightsource, you might as well start over. The method I use lets me make pretty drastic changes to the subject at any time without the need for a full paintover or completely reworking entire sections of the image. It also naturally gives me great colors, so I don't have any guesswork. For reference, my friend Johannes Helgeson paints using this method and gets very fast and consistently good results. https://www.artstation.com/artist/helgesonart Here's a tutorial about how he paints, pretty much identical to my process give or take a few layers. Warning, nudity: http://helgesonart.blogspot.com/2014/08/a-formula-step-by-step.html
Makkon: @Radian: Also forgot to mention that Johannes eliminates the many-layers problem by making a "selections layer" where every part he'd need to have separated for masking is just a colorful, easy to select color with the magic wand. I haven't become too comfortable with that method yet, but it works great for him.
![]() Also, all of these lighting layers get's flattened down to be painted over in the end, these layers seldom give you the final result you need. They give you a solid base to work from tremendously faster and easier than the traditional way I think. Give it a shot!
Radian: @Makkon: Yeah, ability to easy change colors, lights and other things is great advantage of this method. Thanks for links. I wish I have such friends

Geravind: Khajiit wants to want to learn easier methods of making cool arts than almost completely manually working with every damn pixel.

angrybacteria: @Makkon: On the one hand a step by step would be awesome, but do you really have the time for that?
In regards to the sword question, I refer to Layer 1 and Layer 2.
Filthypaladin: I'm finding this discussion very insightful. Thank you!
The_Pitiful_Writer: Immediate thought upon seeing this was "Katiadin Stormblessed! Best Windrunner.

Khajiit_mexican: Wow!!!
DavidTheZettaNerd: *SPEAR OF JUSTICE GETTING LOUDER* NGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH! GREAT WORK YOU TWO! YOU'LL BE GREAT FOR THE ROYAL GUARD! *faint sound of Papyrus crying*

gm01epic: Somebody told me to upload this so I did. While Kaz was making the gif you see right before this image, I made this.
It's Kazeross.
Toryu-Mau: @Adroma: THE-RAGING-OVERLORD has spontaneously combusted with his own brand of memes recently. Gr8 Stuff!
gm01epic: @Enheldor: It did, actually! Thanks for that, I'm new to this.
@Toryu-Mau: We must never let these memories slip away~ And before I forget, thanks for the stream, Kaz! It was fun (for the most part). |

BadReligion: : ^)
unknown_victor: @Mezhik: should have posted yours instead, did a way better job of it than me, oh well.
unknown_victor: @Mezhik: feel free to post yours as your own if you want, this took me like 20 seconds to draw and the idea came from Geravind nitpicking anyway.

Serinexxa: Random frame from a gif I was making for the contest about summoning spells. Had gotten the skeleton all ready but got bored.

Thebaconator3: RIPIP Katia and Enchantmen, ded by spoopiness.
AMKitsune: Casting such powerful spells without the use of any stat enhancing enchanted gear of his own... This is but a glimpse of the sheer might and power that the fabled enchanter possesses.
DavidTheZettaNerd: I am disappointed by the lack of a skeleton tag.
