I just thought I might share these with you guys. They all consist of a few different mediums. I love sketching and coloring my drawings in Photoshop so quite a few have been colored in Photoshop. I also love pencil shading my sketches. ^_^

Amazing work! I personally like the Tidus Tears, you placed really good detail in it. I have some of my own drawings but they are mostly people from bands...

Tidus Blade · Oct 16, 2006

Tidus Tears, Cloud lays aeris to rest, tifa and cloud and seris chibis and the cloud strife ones are really amazing!

love em, very good proportions... you jsut need to "defien" them more. its really good.

Dark Child · Oct 21, 2006

Um, why do they have copyright print on them? Some of them don't look like they were drawn. Some are believable, but I highly doubt you drew some of those images, sorry to be blunt.

hahahahahahaha that's so freakin funny! Yeah I didn't draw them at all *rolls eyes* What I DID was scanned my sketches and then put them into Photoshop and put my name on them so they wouldn't get stolen because I've had that happen a lot, rightkthnx and if you don't believe me then I'll even take pictures of the sketches with my webcam so if you don't think I drew them that's your own problem and you can get the hell over it. As a matter of fact, here if you want it to be more believable...here are the original sketches before they were shaded and colored

don't ever tell me that I didn't do something when I did. I worked my ass off on those so don't you dare tell me otherwise

Good art work Tidus_Girl and I think they are 100% authentic.

*Omni-Slasher* · Oct 23, 2006

They're all good drawings, Tidus_Girl. Keep up the good work.

Warrior of Light · Oct 23, 2006

Tidus_Girl's pics seem legit and her's to me so I think we should hold off on any plagarism accusations unless something concrete is shown to dispute it.

As for the pics, I think they are quite lovely, particularly the one with Cloud, Aeris and Tifa. The coloring is just delightful. The only I find with some of the pics is that the shape of the faces on a few look....strange. Sorry I can't give anything more useful, but that's just how I see it. ^__^

Serah · Oct 23, 2006

Thank you very much Dragonsoul! Yeah, I think I know which ones you're talking about ^_^

I'm still have a bit of trouble learning how to draw anime face shapes properly as well ^^;; but I'll get there one day! Here is one I just recently did of Yuna in anime. Here is the original sketch and here is the colored, Photoshopped version. I love coloring sketches

Nice one TG.

Tethar · Oct 23, 2006

You do excellent art TG they do look good coloured in but I much prefer the Sketch art.

Dark Child · Oct 24, 2006

I can believe someone could draw them, I even thought you drew some of those, but lets get real technical, why don't you get a digital camera and take a picture of them ON the pad, then I'll believe you 100%, I only believe you about 50% now.

But go ahead, make a fool out of me.

Dark Fantasy X · Oct 24, 2006

That would explain alot Tidus girl if you used Photoshop, any ways congrats on those great drawings/computer generated pictures. That didn't make any sense did it... guess it doesn't matter that much does it... hope not

Empra · Oct 24, 2006

I cannot believe the nerve of you. You are REALLY an asshole and pretty damn pathetic if you can't realize what real art is. Or are you just jealous?

Well lets not flame now shall we, I just wanted alittle proof, those drawings are perfectly believable, but as an artist myself I experience way too many posers. I've had people steal art off my sites (i use different site names to conseal myself) and use it as theres, though I am alittle unhappy you tried to take this out in an immature manner, I just asked for alittle proof.

If I offended you or made you think false things about me I apoligize, but you really didn't have to say all of that. I understand your feelings, I hate when people doubt, and there was really no need to pulls mods in this when I just asked for alittle proof. Did you read my first 2 sentences? I said the drawings are beliveable.

The real question is, did you please yourself cursing me out? Because I was not aiming for you to please me with proof, I believe in your artistic abilities, but your lengths to prove it were, immature, theres no other word for it.

So I hope you find it in yourself to forgive me and to not fly off the handle when someone ask for alittle proof of your abilities.

Serah · Oct 25, 2006

No I probably shouldn't have, but I have been under a lot of stress these past few days and when I saw that, that was just the icing on the cake and I was extremely hurt by it, EXTREMELY. I worked VERY hard on those and I found it pretty sad that if you're an artist yourself you should have recognized right off that that was MY own work. I drew them free handed all by myself. I even posted the before sketches and you STILL did not believe me and that was rather upsetting. Thank you for apologizing but I still think you came off extremely rude to me. If you had a problem with it, instead of posting it on a public forum and making me feel like shit you should have PM'd me. I gave your proof which I should not have had to, but I did anyway. Nobody else on here seemed to believe that those weren't mine except for you. I have never gone to another fellow artist and told them that I didn't believe they drew what they did out of respect for that artist and next time maybe you should learn to do the same thing
