Pretty clear lines.

Sai has a great method of displaying lines. That's one reason I love the program.

Color blending seems different though, but it's nice and soft.

I think it's that you can choose the brush shape and in this case, I chose a hard edge. It still has a slight drop to give it that soft end but not to the point it's pixelated.
Give it a shot if you think you'd have interest. I use the english pack for the software.

The pen tool specifically. (The watercolor tool is fun to use as well)

I'm no artist, but more information always helps ;P

Might doodle stick figures ;O

Whatever you enjoy doing =p
Everyone has the ability, but I think the biggest thing is most people that start young don't remember the trial and error bit for the basics that can be frustrating to people who start at a later stage.
Like those kids who learn instruments at 5 and people in high school just want to die because of how good the kid is =p
But it's really time spent practicing, not age.
Sungha Jung is an excellent finger stylist guitar player, but he also plays around 3 hours a day minimum.
Most people practice for a short while (guitar class is at most, 40 minutes) and then go on with the day.

I think it's due to the lack of imagination in correlating ideas into paper properly.

That and a fancy way of saying that I'm lazy ;.=.;, good thing about society is you can pay for services.


How long were you drawing ;O

Very nice! I like the slightly muted tone to the colors, makes it almost seem like an old portrait done on parchment paper.

One thing, though, is that his right arm looks a little short compared to the rest of his body. Nothing serious, it's likely just that particular angle throwing me off.

Thank you very much for doing this! :3

That's a lotta sweet detail there, looks really neat :D

Pretty cool design, I love the spikes on the back of his head and the broadness of his tail - lends it some real muscle. :3

Heheh I love big tails on things :3
Was a fun character to draw though

Big tails are the best <3
Is there a big tails club or something? I'd love that xD
