not bad, blur the border before smudging maybe? :3

You mean the border of the colour layer? Well hopefully in a finished, inked peice, that won't show....I get your drift and all, but I sort of like the hard edge border to the colour....saw something like it in the Capcom Design Works book for Street Fighter 3....I guess it's a taste thing, but I can try it your way and see what it looks like, that's what experimentation is about.

ive never seen anyone use the smudge tool X.X but... yea.. i have AT LEAST that many windows open usually >.> if not more xD

Breakdancin' yo! :D

Is that a roo doing a handstand?
