dankes....

Kiki: trial and error!....sweatdrop.gif....actually, i use layers in PSP....i outline the picture with the black line in one layer (actually 2, one goes underneith and one goes on top of everything)....add the solids in another.....add the shadows in at least one more, depending on how i'm doing the shadows for a certian image, then add little details like the eye glints and facets, and stuff like that......the background then goes on at least one more layer underneither all that, sometimes more depending on what i'm going for.....

does that help ya?....*G*....

I have to admitt it's exceptionly good. How to you create something like that? It's awesome. But no offence, she sort of looks like Sailor Jupiter in a way.

actually, if you look, all the sailor scouts have a similar look....i think there's 3 different face shapes that are used, and only small differences between them....it's mostly the hair and the clothes that make each look different.....

and i used PSP to make them....i did use exisitng pictures for the poses she's in, simply b/c i'm not good at doing that myself.....
