Tagger's Tag

Yoyo and Beat from Jet Set Radio Future, playing Tagger's Tag. Yoyo is being a little shit, as usual. ("WHO DA MAAAAN?!" omg shut up) I'm replaying the game right now so it inspired me. I wanna do a similar one with Rhyth and Cube.

This was more or less me fiddling with Adobe and experimenting, figuring out how to paint in it. I bet I could get really good at it if, again, I practiced. The thing is, I really need to work on seeing my work from an overall, big picture point of view, because I tend to work zoomed in a lot and things lose their shape and end up wonky, which is why some parts of this look weird.

I also need to learn how to define the lines more and give it more depth using colour, etc. Yeah. Still has a lot of improvement that could be done.

Another experiment.

Another OC3 experiment, this time of some sort of prehistoric fish-man based on a concept from a novel my friend is writing. Or about to write.

I realize the colours are really shitty, but I will get better at it, I swear XD And I have to get the lineart more clean looking too... but I was kinda lazy this time anyway, so eh. It looks kinda half finished the way it is but I got bored D:

Learning to paint

Anyone remember that program OpenCanvas? ...No? XD Well I forgot I had OC3, and I went to try it out and discovered I'm actually vastly better at painting in this program than anything else. I don't really know how this works, but it does. This was more of an experiment or a test or whatever, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I'll probably try and do all my stuff like this from now on. Now if only I could get it more cleaned-up looking.. somehow.. ahah.

Slapped some textures on it since that seems to be the style these days. Textures in the pic by lookslikerain, link on the bottom right hand side of the blog.
