Artist's Comments

This is part 1 of a three-part series I'm working on. This first part should explain anything you might wonder over when it comes to stationary emotes.

The next two parts will deal with Simple Animation and Advanced Animation. Stay tuned. :D

If there is anything you feel remains unaswered in this tutorial, please contact me and I'll make sure to add it. :)

Awesome. I'm really looking forward to it, especially part 3. For me right now timing is the hardest thing to do well. I can really benefit from your wisdom. :nod:

Really nice. I love how you added how to shade them by hand. I've found that it's easier to shade them from the outside towards the inside. If you start in a corner, you'll end in the opposite corner. It's basically the same thing only backwards. ^^; expressions kill me. This is perfect though. You can apply it to even MS Paint :heart:

I used to start from the outside as well, but when I started trying from the inside instead, I noticed I found it a lot easier and quicker. :)

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
When was the last time you got your hands dirty? Check out *ArtisanCraft
:iconkoffeeben:

98% of the teenage population does or has tried smoking pot. If you're one of the 2% who hasn't, copy & paste this into your comment signature. I DRAW DRAGONS!

Not really sure, I've never experienced anything with "formated colors", sorry. :O

This really helps! You are a gud teecher :B

Perhaps you should also do something on how to animate in photoshop in your next one? (If you already were doing this, then don't bother saying anything 'bout it :3)

(For future reference, I found two typos: 1) after the picture of the colour selector in Photoshop, with your reference to where each of the colours should come from, you have "Make sure it goes from forgroung to background"... it would probably be best to have "Make sure it goes from foreground to background." :D 2) On step three, take out one of the r's on around.)

Thanks for pointing out the typos, I'll fix them eventually. :P And, yes, parts 2 and 3 are going to be about animating emotes. ;)
