At first it will be slow going, but the more you do it and the more you get used to it, the faster you'll go. On the current pic I'm working on it took me about 30min to sketch, and I'm in at 1hour and roughly 20min digitally. I hope to be done within the next hour XD
I may have to try that... I just think i can go faster traditionally. It kills me to spend more then 20 mins or so on a pic lol. My latest kaneki picture took me almost an hour but i made myself slow down
Thank you! Digital isn't as hard as I thought it'd be. Especially now that I do up the sketches traditionally and then just plug them in for ink and color. I'm looking into getting a good knead eraser so that I can make better use of my pencils too. If you want to try doing digital I recommend getting a cheap little Bamboo(or other Wacom table; don't go for cheapest all over, they don't last as long) and GIMP is a great starter program. ^.^
I know right? Luckily it was a very clean image I used for pulling. The other image was a manga cover and it was very grainy. I can't stand .jpg format on pics.
Thank you~! Midori is an adorable character and I had fun drawing her! I really like how her hair came out too. I pulled colors directly from an official art piece.
