I got kicked out of my school building today because the janitors needed to wax our hallway. Perfect excuse to give in to my intense craving for some
This is Barnaby (nicknamed "Bunny") from Tiger & Bunny, a surprisingly good anime this season. It's set up as a hero show and the plot is pretty predictable, but the great chemistry between all of the characters keeps me watching!
Barnaby Bunny!

I tried to CG with the brush I normally sketch with. It was a nice change of pace. :)
EDIT: Did a bit of colour and blur tweaking.
Here are a couple of alternative versions. I ended up inking the original sketch and tried my hand at cel shading! I never really do clean lineart, so this was an interesting route to take!
I think this last one is probably my favourite, which makes me really sad because I spent considerably more time on the rendered version!

I really like the one with cel shading!!!
.... the bunny ears are so random. I clearly fail at understanding anime.
Thanks Nicole! I think I like the cel shading one more too, which makes me sad because it took like 1/4 of the time of the fully rendered one. D:
Haha it's all good, anime is a strange world!
ANIMU!!!
I like both the soft & cel shaded versions :D Your soft shaded pics always have a nice dreamy quality to them. I don't think I've ever seen a cel shaded pic by you before! I really love the colors you used for the cel shaded version too :D
Thanks Minyan! I think I've only ever done a single cel-shaded chibi lol... I rarely have clean lines to begin with. :S
You are so pro at cel shading, give me tips! :)
I actually wanted to add some gradients and textures to the cel shading, but it was 5 am by that time lol...
I like your non-clean lines style! I can never achieve that D:
Haha thanks :D
Yeah try playing with gradients! They're quite fun to use w/ cel-shading and it creates that semi-cel shaded look =] Flash is actually really good for doing cel shading stuff when you use the "paint inside" or "Paint selected" functions with the brush tool :D
Awww you can! I find clean lines way harder. :\
I have to admit, I'm not very fond of the Flash interface and tools, so I think I'll stick to AI and PS for my cel-shading needs for now. But I'll give that a shot eventually! :D
