Wasted Sundae

Postby Midnight Tails » Sun Jul 13, 2014 9:12 pm

This poor boy took a long time making a sundae for his crush, only to trip on his own tail and drop it, causing it to smash. :(
(so now he's just on his side crying about it, but he'll get up soon and make another one! He doesn't give up)
He's very clumsy, but he tries his best!
He's unsure of whether his crush is due to admiration or if it's more than that.
Either way he enjoys making gifts for them! His clumsiness just tends to get in the way.

I just realised I forgot to put the white/whatever shade of pink my friend said it is, in the inside of the ear. D:
I may edit later and add that detail in.
That eye I think is pretty much the best I've ever done. :) (in my opinion)

I'm partially colour-blind; I cannot see a lot of reds or pinks. They don't look grey or anything (like true or more full colour-blindness), it just blends into one colour and I can't tell the difference, they also often appear lighter to me than they appear to others. It is only just enough of a problem to be noticed, and if there's enough of a difference between the colours, I can see a bit of a difference (like with that strawberry).
This pseudodragon wouldn't have been able to be coloured in by myself, without the help of my wonderful friend via skype (video call and sharing screens), who carefully instructed me on what colours to use (even though I can't see what they're meant to properly look like haha), and used photoshop/paint to put blue where the design on the pseudo's body is so I could copy that.
Even with this though, I wouldn't have been able to do it without the help of layers. Seriously, layers are one of everyone's best friends. ^.^


Even if I cannot see all of this pseudodragon's design, I think he's a gorgeous boy! <3

Apart from the pseudodragon's colouration, I did everything else by myself. :)
Timer is so long because oekaki was being mean and not saving for so long so I had to leave it open for one single session even though I had to help with moving things around for the new carpet being put down and stuff.
My laptop kept crashing a lot (does that sometimes) and I kept losing a lot of my work, (if my laptop is being weird oekaki doesn't save), but eventually I got to the point where I could ask my friend for help with the colours. C:

I had trouble finishing it off as oekaki froze and I couldn't open a new oekaki either, but me and my friend fixed the problem after a lot of attempts to fix it. c:
I finished the rest of my form days ago, so it was annoying that the art stuffed up so much, but at least it's finally done! c':
There isn't any shading because it was hard enough to get the design right with my friend's help, and if the surrounding things where shaded properly the pseudodragon would look out of place with no shading.

If I win this boy I probably wouldn't draw any art of him myself (as it's not fair on my friend to help out every time), but I'd certainly commission some art! :3
As I usually do, I've written too much. ;.;
