  • Title: Hanging up the stars
  • Artist: Moonlight_Naida
  • Description: I got the inspiration from a sketch I did last November. I liked the idea but the drawing itself was extremely crappy so I tried to re-do it to make it look better. This is my first drawing without a lineart.

  • Oh how cute! I love this, it's adorable. The colors are soft and still have depth and everything is so smooth and yet so crisp. Definitely have to agree it's a very refreshing change from all the anime floating around. And congradts on this being your first Lineless piece! biggrin

  • @Chaogirl: Thanks for the comment. Indeed this was my first liness drawing but I do a lot of coloring too so it was so different from what I usually do. And I know the anatomy is far from being perfect but I'll try to be more careful next time.

  • Wow, your first drawing without lineart? I must say, I'm impressed! Most people new to lineless painting are far too timid about using dark shadows, but I think you nailed it. I especially like how you did the legs and hair, they have a lot of depth to them. You might want to watch your anatomy a bit though, as her arms are different lengths.

  • I like it! It's a welcome break from the manga/anime drawings that flood the world with their standard angled faces and bodies.

  • Thanks for the comments everyone!

    @NuttyLikesCandy: I used Photoshop CS3
    @Raining_Stardus: Yeah, it reminds me of clay too. I always color my drawings the same way but this is the first time it looks like this. I liked the effect though.
