Making Anime Through Paint.Net? o.O

[FireBender88]

yeah, I just downloaded this software today, my girlfriend introduced me to it.

well I absolutely LOVE anime and I was wondering if theres anyway on here I can make CG looking anime with the software, and not only that, id like to know how to put a background with it after ive finished, and another thing im curious about is how to make it look as if ive sketched it incase I DONT want the CG look

im not very bright so if someone could give me a step by step tutorial of how to create this I would be SO happy!

its also important to me 'cause its my girlfriends and mine (im a girl, lesbian >>) anniversary tomarrow but shes going to be gone and I want to make her something nice using the software

I appriciate anyone who can help me out ^^

[FireBender88]

im SO sorry to double post but now that I made an example maybe someone can help me better (I know im not the greatest artist ^^;

well I did this pretty well, but theres still the white lines from when I tried to make the crease or shade or whatever to make it look like CG anime art

if anyone else can help me figure out how to do this better it would be much appriciated

[FireBender88]

I wanna draw anime for this site I go on ^^

[TakeMangaka]

OK, I sent you the email.

You see, if you want, you can also do like this:

See I've done the whole outline again? It may be easier to paint.

EDIT: sorry guys, I just realized it was too large when I finally posted it. Fixed now.

[Yata]

ACK! Please just link to an image that large and don't display it... that thing is huge!

[FireBender88]

sorry but I really didnt understand any of it ^^;;;

And it's giving my broadband trouble aswell.

Anyways, I'd just look around dA for tutorials (there are tons of them) and try and convert them for PDN.

[FireBender88]

yeah, learning how to make it look CG would really help me greatly 'cause I LOVE anime!

its been a passion of mine ever since I was really little! ^^

[TakeMangaka]

Ok then, I'll do a quick tutorial now. Hope it works.

[TakeMangaka]

OK IT'S DONE!! Just look in the Tutorial's page.

[mustang maverick]

It is a great tutorial to say the least.

Just thought I would be generous.
