An amazing piece of work Mandi. It is an excellent demonstration of your sublime skill and expertise.

Wow. Photoshop's a little more effective than colored pencils, isn't it? How is it that you take away the boldness of the lines in the original, and have them fade in the colored version?

one of these days I plan on making a full color tutorial on how I blend and shade but it's all the matter of using color and certain brushes and the smudge tool. It takes lots of practice to learn how to color that way. You can always go on deviantart.com and on google and look up Photoshop coloring tutorials if you're too impatient to wait for mine :P I don't know when I'll get around to it.

And thank you very much everyone :D

rotflmfao yeah and when you said it it sent me into more fits of laughter xD
 
awesome pics
i loved the way u used the black pen;)!!!!
i also like your style in sketching :) its fast and well detailed:cool:
 
Thanks Ashe :) I love to sketch. Anyway I wanted to post a new one I just got in my head tonight. It was an idea that came to mind. Here's a small description:
This is not too long after Aerith died and Cloud is out walking alone in the rain. I don't know why I had him holding his swords, but in my mind he's just discovered he has Geostigma and he's walking in the rain and trying to drown away his pain and heartache of losing Aerith and his suffering from the Geostigma. Just a colored sketch.

Excellent ones of Cloud, Mandi. I don't usuallt say this but the coloured one looks better then the sketch.

Nice work but the last Cloud one in your first post has a bit too much cheek. I dunno, he just looks kinda...chubby if you can see where i'm coming from.

The rest great though, love the Yuna one. (b'-')b

Exactly what I was thinking. I also adore the chibi Rikku pic. I was like, "Awwww, ain't she precious?" I even see Paine through a whole new light...

I like that, "Cloud, is that Materia I spot in your pants?" Hilarious. Truly hilarious.

Anyways, LadyAerith, it'll be damned hard not to believe that these were drawn by you, because not only are you a really talented writer, that's evidence enough to believe that you're a really talented artist as well. I wouldn't worry about the other people who happen to not believe your art, because I genuinely believe these are yours, with or without proof. Anyways, I strongly urge you to make more for fans like me.
 
Christmas one was awesomely drawn! The coloring was pretty good, actually is really good! But I loved the shadows!!!
flower halo one, drawing looks awesome! Cant wait to see colored version ;)
 
They took awhile to do lol. Good art takes lots of hard work and patience, and thank you CiiCii! ^_^
 
It's amazing how much art one can do in a span of 3 days. Here's a HUGE update for you all! ^_^
