It's a bit different than Mickey's, more smoother.. I'm having fun doing this! I wish I could find a tutorial, though, so I could learn shading.

Here's the picture I looked off.

wow, you sure do have the basics in order.

That drawing looks pretty darned good!!! You can work on the other goodies later!! ;)

So you do it by putting up the picture then coloring over it in paintshop or some program? Interesting, I've never done that. Looks like it would be fun.

thats really neat!! It looks just like molly!

Yep, I just created a new layer over top of the picture. I used to the lasso tool to outline my shapes and then filled in with the bucket. Very easy actually! Except furry dogs. lol But I like how Molly's white ruff came out.

Jess i would just search for vexelling tutorials if you want to learn shading and stuff. You are soo much better than me when I tried my first time though LOL I was so discouraged I NEVER tried it again!

[Jadapit]

It's very good. I love how her eye looks with the background.

[Blue_Frog]

wow -- thats great! I only wish my attempts at PaintShop (i think you mentioned that you were using this in another thread?) worked out as well ;)

Heres a couple of links that might be useful to you if you like playing with digital photos etc.

How the heck do you do that? :eek:

[BC_MoM]

Paint Shop Pro 8, the lasso tool, fill bucket, and patience. :eek: LOL It's quite simple, if you have the patience for it!

Thanks a lot everyone. :D I like the encouragement. I may try to do some shading tonight after homework.. I think it may be disastrous, though!

[Alysser]

BEAUTIFUL! I love how it came out, I wish my parents would get me PSP 8 I've always wanted. If your ever taking requests I'll be first on the list. :p

[BC_MoM]

Alyssa, interested in PSP8? PM me. ;)

If you want, I can do a practice on Sassy.. lol

[Vette]

If your ever taking requests I'll be first on the list. :p

And ill be second. LOL

i have Paint Shop Pro 9. i love it,, but erh... i need one of those 'PSP for dummies' books. :o

[mustlovedogs]

i need one of those 'PSP for dummies' books. :o

LOL, I need one too! I have PSP X, and I still don't understand even half of it! All I understand is the basics...but I hope that I will learn even more!

BC_MoM- That is AMAZING! My eyes widened when I saw it! Great job! I'm going to go try that right now!

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

That looks great Jess! I tried the same thing once, but it didn't turn out anywhere near as good.

[Danegirl2208]

wow! Thats great :)

[Husky15]

That's just too darn cool! Looks great! Background goes great with it too!

[Almita]

That's great Jess! Man i wish i had PSP or something lol i just have that free photofiltre one.

[dukedogsmom]

That's really good! And, an interesting way to learn how to get comfortable with the process, also. I may get brave and try to do that.
