I'm an inquiring mind and i would love to know....what kind of medium do the artists use to paint and draw the JL'ers? I like acryllics, and Adobe Photoshop (check out my new avatar!!!) I would lke to try their style sometime because it looks so wonderful. BTW I did my tiny picture just using he airbrush, thats why its sooo fuzzy looking....like it could walk through walls..??! lol...

Also i have other pitures i'd loe to post, but I don't know how. If anyone has any hints...i'd love to hear them. Until then,no one can see my funny pictures of Flash and the others...i'm curently working on something hilarous, but i won't spoil it for you until i can show you

I can't figure out how they get everything so crisp. is it paintbrush? it blows my mind. I can't eve do the cool style of the great poison ivy picture....someone help!

Thanks in advance!

Hmmm... personally, I like to pencil everything by hand. If I decide to ink it, I'll break out a transparency and the darkest and most fluid permanent marker I can find. The transparencies I buy have a white sheet of paper on one end and I use that to protect the inks from damage.

Once I'm happy with the inks, which are usually relatively different from my pencils, I'll usually do all my coloring in photoshop.

That's what I do. I'm sure there are better ways, but that's my method of protecting my original pencils.

so in photoshop, after you ha the basic character outline...what do you prefer to color with? paintbrush? airbrush? or pencil? i've never used the pencil option myself? bu if you have some drawings that you've done with it i'd love to see their style! I have another one done, but i still can't post it. i haven't had anytime with all these midterms to study for.
