Whoa, took me a good minute just to look for the "New Thread" button. T_T;
Um, I'm kinda new here (I signed up ages ago to look for some Yuuko from xxxHOLiC artwork for inspiration, but that was it), so I thought I should just introduce myself. =D
I used to do a lot of artwork when I was younger, but stopped for a number of years (thank you, endless schoolwork! *shakes fist*) and am now finding it a bit difficult to start again. So hopefully by joining a place like this, I'll be somewhat motivated. ^^;
Have a couple of questions, though. I noticed that when I look in the gallery normal fanart has been submitted - does that mean I (a new user) can do that too? I'm looking for a place to put up stuff but am worried that my art will get stolen (has happened to me and my friend before). How do I prevent this? Besides putting my name in some noticable place in the middle, that is. Lol.
Another thing is, I saw some stuff done by a user called "angelgirlz" - posted a comment about the techniques
used but got no reply.
Now, since I'm new here, I'm not sure if people here don't reply to questions on a regular basis but I am
really interested in the technique used. Could anyone elighten me on how to create an effect like the ones in her
(...his?) artwork? ^_^ Would be eternally grateful.
If I've posted this in the wrong place, please feel free to gun me down. >__>;
