Better than most and you know who I am talking about.

...won't name names...

Nice, man! Looks really good! This beats the everloving shit out of my drawing skils, but still, goooood stuff.

BTW, you? Bored? <goggles for a bit> I didn't know you could be boring and/or bored!
Zounds!

Actually, I'm not sure who... That guy with the journal? In that case, certainly. He's a double putz because his own art has the beginnings of technique but completely lacks passion. Wotta dick.

And of COURSE I'm bored! My mind is like a pachinko machine! Without constant stimulation, I go fucknuts!

I'm impressed with your artistic progress! You're paying more attention to coloring, even if it's a fill job, you're not being sloppy with the fill job.

I figure, if fill jobs are what I'm limited to, I'll do my best to make them look as good as I can! ;)

Actually, I think I like the shrunken version slightly better; the lines blur more. That's one thing my program cannot do; make pixel-ly lines smoother. Grr...

Geez, get a better paintshop program! Pirate one if you have to! Antialiasing is something fundamental to image presentation on a computer.

AntiWHATaling?

Hmm... Well, I do have absolutely no qualms about stealing anything on the internet that's not nailed down...

Eh, Pay no attention to Alfador :) All of my computer-colored art is pixelated: I just shrink it down for submission so you can't tell. Back in the beginning I tried lots of free art programs and NONE of them could properly flood-fill anti-aliased lines. Maybe they can now, but now I'm more proficient with my software than I would be with new software.

Well that's the thing! You anti-alias AFTER you color everything...often BY shrinking it down. Alex is saying that his program DOESN'T DO THAT when it shrinks!

...isn't he? *confuzzled* But yeah, pixellated is desirable when you scan in inkings and start coloring, and then you smooth it out to SHOW it unless you're going for a pixellated look or the resolution is so dense that it looks nice and smooth anyway--which has the added advantage of being crisp and sharp instead of blurry, which can happen if you antialias too much.



PLEASE FEEL FREE TO IGNORE MY BLITHERINGS. I'm talking about what I know which ISN'T MUCH.

Yes, you did indeed get it right. Shrinking it just makes it more pixelly, except when it's a .png. Either way, it still doesn't look very good.

Ah, okay. Yes, my software anti-aliases my art when I shrink it. I thought I was the oddball using pixelated art when coloring as I figured somehow everyone else was able to color anti-aliased art. Maybe my way isn't so oddball after all.

What a coincidence you should happen to comment on this! It was *your* comment on Fahren's recent Dale (about his feet needing to be licked clean! MURR!!) that inspired me to go tinkering about with this picture!

Hey, cool! You did some more C&D art. Groovy, man. I try to draw them little b'stards but can't get 'em quite right. They defy me!

Actually, this is an earlier drawing I just colored (which is here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/325406/ )

Hmm, he's pretty sexy, damn, I love his tail there.

I'm curious, what method did you use to get the lines coloured like that?

I like his tail too, but I think I could've done his feet better.

As far as the lines, I just took the color I'd filled in the white space, reduced it by about 30-40%, thn used the fill tool. Of course, I also had to get in there with the pencil tool to make sure lines for, like, his arms wouldn't end up the same color as his shirt lines.

I see, very clever. Maybe I'll give that a try. Thanks Mr.Alex.

hey, great to see you drawing again! That's a very well done pic there. I'd like to use in the next edition of the RR calendar - how would you like the credit to read?

SURE you can use it! I guess just say 'Drawing by Alex Reynard' and give my FA userpage.

BTW, I was *totally* just about to send you pics of that amazing Gadget doll! Why am I not surprised you've already seen it? ;)

...actually, I think I've given you a kind of eternal blanket permission to use any of my pics in the calendar anytime ya like. Just let me know when! ^__^

Just to let you know that the Chip n Dale's fan art calendar with this picture is up at

Thanks again for your permission!

Awesome! Thanks!

hey, looks good Alex! :D

Thanx!

DRAW MORE!


Seriously, this is not a request :3 I STILL think that napkin doodle of Batlebie is the CUTEIST thing ever! :3 your talent liesin more then just storys...speaking of wich I have alot of new storys from you i need to catch up on.

Then Read, my boy! Read like the WIND!!!

I kinda want to draw more, but I'm not really inspired much anymore. My brain kinda melts in the summer months...

Makes sence to me. Im a little lerry about reading dangerus lunitics, I dont know if I have the energy to become obsessed with yet ANOTHER one of your stories! :3 seriusly you could publish your work, if you know, people would open there minds a little. :3

It's energy well spent, my good sir! ;D

Very true, and my allready iffy sanity has had repeated holes blasted into it's foundation by your, horizin expanding literary works in the past, guess my brain can take a few more for the team.

By the way, his name is Charles...my brain I mean. :3

My brain's name is EEGAHRAHNOKK, LORD OF DOOM AND WAFFLES.

So...umm...what? You can like, manafest wafulls with your mind? Flameing, evil waffuls? That would be so awsome! Do you use souls for syurp? :3

Wow. I love it when I come up with random crap and someone actually analyzes it. "Soul syrup" is an awesome idea.

Also, I dont know why, but my computer isnt allowing me to type apostrophes all of a sudden! WTF!?

mine used to do weird stuff like that O.o run an anti virus anti malwear/spywear ptogram and or restart your pc. should fix it.

Huh. Now it's fine.
