They are my favourites. Excellent drawing skills and, great shading too! The cartoon/vector style is great. Keep it up! I'll look forward to seeing more of your work.

PS: Do you use a table to draw, or is it just line tool/brush tool?

Merry Christmas

The chefs and lacrosse player were scanned in. I freehanded drew those and THEN scanned them in. The butterfly, however, was drawn with the line tool. I enjoy drawing, lol.

You can draw cartoon styles excellently then! Your line tool use is also very good. Try drawing the chefs (or something entirely different) with just the line tool.

Merry Christmas

Oh, don't worry, there's a bigger project coming up. I just hope it works out well. I'll be using just the line tool and adding effects with the options given.

@Oma: Thanks. I just wish weren't so busy. All I want to do, is not worry about anything and just draw, draw, and draw on PDN.

@Pipp92: Thanks. I enjoyed drawing it.

@Worldnewser: Thanks for visiting. :) I actually feathered ALL my images, but I guess the feather doesn't really like me or something. lol.

Well usually, I tend to checkmark the "True Feather" option, since it seems to work more effectively in most circumstances (depends on the case).

But sometimes, it doesn't work. Then I'd just use line/curve tool over the jagged lines. In your case, I'd just outline them again using the ellipse tool or the outline object plugin :wink:

@Welshblue: That was so sweet! I love glossy/glassy buttons. I have another that I'm working on. I just need to feather it, fix it up a little more, and it will soon be posted.
