Why I Love Gimp.

Tue Oct 20, 2009, 6:32 PM
  • Listening to: Nickelback- 'S.E.X.' The A in A/D has a playlist.
  • Reading: Peoples minds from across space and time.
  • Watching: The cursor... it blinks...
  • Playing: 'Drag-the-beads-and-watch-kittens-go-insane"
  • Eating: Your mother.
  • Drinking: Tampico fruit punch.
Okay, short entry today. So I've been working with Gimp for a few days now, and I've gotta say, I still love it just as much as ever. I have yet to actually complete any art on it- I'm too busy playing with it- but I've tested several of my new 'toys' and I'm adoring them all. I have three new friends; their names are 'Dodge,' 'Burn,' and 'Smudge.' Glee.

Thank you Cross for the link and basic lineart tutorials, thank you Rad for the hand tutorial, thank you BOTH for being willing to doodle over my projects to tell me what needed to be fixed. Oh, and Rad, you owe me a mugshot now. Heh heh heh...

As it stands, I'm working on a picture of my original character Chrysalis again, this time in a serious pose. It's going to be my first Gimp work, so I'm taking my time. After this I have a stamp to do and a few sprites for a friend. I'm looking forward to seeing if I can use Gimp with those, too. Here's hoping!

Anyone know a good tutorial for anime-style mouths?

The Blood of Some is Sweeter Than the Blood of Others.

A cynic is a man who, when he smells flowers, looks around for the coffin.

Not all that glitters is gold. Some of it is vampires.
