I hope that assists you. If you have anymore questions ask away.
Thank you :)
One thing I'm wondering about is how long it takes until the batteries in the pen have to be changed. Can you say about how many hours it takes for the batteries to run down?
It takes probably about a month or longer.
For the pen I use it requires a AAA battery.

"What tools did you use?" Photoshop CS2, and Tablet
You are using a graphictablet WeisseEdelweiss? I have for a while been trying to buy one at ebay, but so far the wacom tablets were always sold for more than I was willing to bid. In spit of the fact that the wacom tablets are supposed to be the best (no batteries required for the pens etc.) I guess I might have to settle for a cheaper tablet.
I wonder if you can give me any useful hints which I should keep in mind when looking for / working with a graphic tablet?


I'll be honest with you, Malte. I didn't have a clue as to what kind of tablet I wanted, however I came across a rather large AIPTEK tablet. It works very well for me.
You're absolutely right about the batteries. Although it can be annoying, I learn to live with it. ;3

What I find, when people first start out with their tablet, is that they have a difficult time drawing on the equipment and looking at the screen at the same time. This difficulty holds merit as we are all traditionally accustomed to looking at we draw or write as we put it on paper. Getting use to the tablet is all something that comes with practice just like drawing itself.

Working with a tablet has many benefits vs using a mouse. It provides as much control (if not more) as a pencil on paper. I'm a big fan of traditional art yet I'd much rather use Photoshop and my tablet. It's a geat opporitunity to work with extreme detail.

I hope that assists you. If you have anymore questions ask away. ^^

Just continue drawing and you'll improve, in your overall drawing and at drawing certain characters.
Definately! :D I can't wait to get better. :3
Thanks for the support. ^^

You're really good at drawing, but that picture makes me a little uneasy. It looks like Duckys mom is sorta forcing Pteronto into an act and he doesn't like it too much. Were you looking at Petries uncle when you drew him or something? I swear to god it looks like a traced picture of Pteronto. Perhaps giving him more of the Petrie look might help.

I'm not trying to diss your work or anything. I certainly couldn't do it, but focusing more on the facial features might make it look more like the children actually grown up instead of exactly like the adult characters. Please understand that this is supposed to be constructive criticism, not just mindless and/or mean comments. I'm sorry if I offended you in any way. I can't wait to see your other work though. :yes You've got a real talent.
First of all, it's spelled Pterano.
I didn't trace trace anything as you imply.
I used Pterano's basic layout for adult Petrie. They are the same species. I honestly can understand how you'd think it looks similar to Pterano, yet maybe not as close as you think. It takes experiance to recognize such things. ;3

Yikes! I looks like Ducky's mom is on Pterano? Wouldn't that be kinky? XD
Yet, I had to make an adult Ducky. I think it's a pretty good assumption to believe she'll look very much like her mother. ;3

Facial features of the children? Maybe you could create a tutorial for me so I can see what you mean. I think I did a fantastic job. ^^

Well, as far as your constructive criticism goes, I need helpful tips not blunt opinions on what you think I did. I need a direction, but it's a good attempt. :D I'm not offended in the least bit either. ^^ After all, I do visit DeviantArt. @.@ Those people on there are crazy.

No, no, my dear. I apologize if I offended you with my art seeing as it made you "uneasy." ;3 I'll try to dish out a better warning next time.

Wait, Valentine's day? I thought it is on the 14th February.  :o

Must draw a valentine picture fast.
It is. I just submitted it early.

For my next trick, I shall make a size comparison chart. :o

Petrie is most likely standing on something. ;3

Happy Valentine's Day all!
Here's my favorite couple from LBT! I hope you all enjoy this and have a happy holiday! ^^





Front Page BABY! >D!!

(Note: I know Ducky would most likely be larger, but I wanted them at eye level to some degree. Petrie is most likely settled on something.)

Yes, I have been drawing since I was about 5 years old. I'm 20 now. XD
It takes time.

Thanks all! ^^

This took about 2 days I do believe. The line art takes the longest.
It only took about 30 min. for the backround so that's proof. ;3

"That pic in your signature is so cute!"

Lol! XD Thanks. I did that at about 7 in the morning..laughing
the entire time. I thought it was the funniest thing in the
world. It is cute. I hope it'll one day be canon.
Currently, I think Ducky has a bit of the puppy love for Petrie. ;3

"I've been wanting to meet you so much! I like his pose!"

Thank you! It's always nice to meet fans of my fanart. ^_^
I'm still playing around with what adult Ducky's look. I'm using
her mother as a bit of reference. I'm hoping to have that ready soon.

I believe they were aliens. A major clue is that flash of light and the camera panning up away from Little foot. We don't get to see them leave until the "meteor" flies across the screen. (If I remember correctly.)

Thanks ^^ The reason why Ducky looks so small is because she's behind him. ^^; I didn't know it would be that hard to tell. I guess I didn't do a good enough job with that effect. ^^;
