So far, you all must probably know that I am obsessed with Anime. Well, I didn't technically draw the body. I only drew the shadows, hair, clothes, and stuff like that. I just found a base that I liked and decided to make a picture out of it. So, here it is. It only took me like 5 hours to do this. I didn't feel like putting shadow in the hair, so I left it as is. And if you are wondering why the eyes are different colors, I just wanted to do that so bad. I was about to do black and red eyes, but then, I changed black to purple. (For some odd reason...I don't know why) Well, hope you like it~!

Here's the base I used to draw the picture

This is the picture I drew (or painted) on the computer
Ahhh, you use anime bases. I know a lot of people who hate artists who use traces of other's art to make a base like that, so, be careful. Sometimes, it's hard to tell between art made from a free base, or a trace base. Even though you've used a base, though, a lot of the work was your own. I would consider it as being very much your art. I mean, five hours? That's a lot of work. Just as long as you credit whoever made the base (unless it was you) you'll be fine! And please post more of your MSP stuff, I love it! Jenth
So you use bases, too? cool I'm not alone. Do you have a tablet? Cause that's pretty amazing on MS paint I can't do that on paint even if it took me four weeks it wouldn't look as good as that I'm sorry I don't have any criticism haha because I like what you added to the base.

Hahah! I was wondering if other people used bases too. If you keep practicing on the computer, then you will be able to get a good picture out of MS Paint. By the way, what is a tablet?
A tablet, (also called a "wacom Tablet" since Wacom is the leading maker of them) is a HID (human interface device) that simulates paper on the screen, it comes with a pen that you can use to draw on the computer in programs like Photoshop, paint, gimp and all other things.
They come in handy because most people can't draw free-hand with a mouse.
Nice work, It looks good, even more so now that I know you didn't use a tablet :O
Ooh, those things. I always wanted to try one of those things. They seem a lot easier. (I think I know what you are talking about). Well, thanks for explaining what a tablet is. [:
Hey I've never done a base before. I suppose it would give you good practice if you wanted to jump right into the colors and shading. But personally, sketching is my favorite part Anyways, congrats on completing a 5 hour drawing!!! I know how much work it can be, and I'm sure you learned a lot from it. If I can add a few suggestion to this, I'll say that technically we shouldn't see her eye behind her hair. Though a lot of people would like to see at least some of it, I'm the kind of person that would rather have it hidden. Your choice! And I love the color contrast between the two. I love her outfit, it's really cool. You definitely shaded at the right spot on her shirt, great job! I have trouble finding those shadowed areas. I think you should've done extra shading on the skin, and especially the mouth, just for practice. It looks fine, but it might've just given you a bit more practice. Next time, though All in all, great job!! Keep it up.
