Thanks again for that awesome review, Pangaea! :D Glad you like the new picture. ^__^

Those feathers on the base of Star’s tail look a little odd, the way her wing membrane connects to them; it would be more realistic if the outermost one overlapped the wing membrane, rather than appearing to support it.
It's still experimental, but I do agree that it looks pretty odd. I'll try to solve this in future drawings.

Quote
Are those the same feathers that form the back half of her “skirt”?
Actually, no. Those backfeathers cover the half of her actual "skirt". ;)

By the way, here’s an observation regarding Sky’s head crest.....
Personally, I don't mind the little details with their head feathers. It's some kind of way to keep things easy and fast. Most cartoons do the same to save up time. Although, I could try to adapt to this little issue in the future. :angel Just need to remind myself.  ;)

A great an awesome part to complete the little story! :^.^:

Nice to see Glide looking out for his brother in law. Serves that gray wingtail right! :D And aww, the ending part was sweet yet again. :^.^: So it's somewhat official they will have a second child then? Heh, I wonder... :angel

Thanks again for this sweet little story~ :wub
I will definitely give my review later on for the Fanfiction Award.  ;)

Ah, forgot to answer pokeplayer984's question:
Probably not. I promised not to enter the next contest to give others a chance. :) Also, I'll be leaving soon somewhere so I won't even get the opportunity to enter.  :confused
Sorry to disappoint you.  :oops

A daughter... wait, what!? A daughter? Are you reading my mind or something?  :blink:  :o

[size0](I should really work on DoaW as fast as possible :oops)
Well, I thought to call her Dawn. Her color is somewhere purple/blue and her tail vane would be... ah, it's quite difficult to describe so here is a pic:

The smaller part is semi transparent. ;)

So, are you actually planning a second child for Sky and Star? I guess getting lessons from Glide makes Cloud a strong big brother.  :lol  :angel

Thank you everybody! :DD

^Caustizer
Hey, it's good to see you aroud again. Welcome back!  :yes
Well, I thought it would look much more heart-warming to see her fall into his arms. :^.^: Grown-up or not, I think it's only natural when you haven't seen your beloved mate for such a long time who is leaving again very soon for a much longer time (I view them as very young adults by the way :p :angel)

Heh, I might have an idea for Cloud and Glide already. ;)

Thank you for the comment, Justin! I really appreciate it and I'm glad you like my works.  :DD

Yay! Finally something new :lol::



So, I finally overcome my depression a few days back, and I still feel totally awesome! :D
I would like to thank all the people and friends who supported me in that stressful and lonely time.

:cheers  :celebrate THANK YOU ALL! :celebrate   :cheers

And it seems that Star is happy too. :^.^:
[size0](OR, she doesn't want me to leave as I'll depart to the Philippines in a few weeks for vacation. ^^)
Hmm... it looks like I still need to get used to the new design though. :confused But I still like it nevertheless. :angel

Saurus Rock: Member Hall of Fame / Award voting 2011
« on: June 23, 2011, 01:53:20 PM »
Alright! Now it's my turn! :D

::: Fanart Award ::::::::::
This one is... quite sad actually. :( There's less activity when it comes to fanart. :unsure: Most topics are about fanfiction (I have no problems with that though) so it makes it hard to decide for a candidate. Hmm... Malte279 is an "all-round" artist. He has done sculpting, an embroidery, traditional and digital art! :wow You deserve respect! :yes Although there are many mentionable artists around here, I noticed that Pangaea, who doesn't only do regular fanart (I hope to see more from you :)), but also doing birthday cards for people with their specific characters who have their birthday today. :DD That is what I call generosity and so I vote him for the Fanart Award!


::: Feedback Award ::::::::::
Although it seems he doesn't have much time nowadays or doesn't get enough sleep, Pangaea still comes online and post a detailed and awesome review for both fanart and fanfiction. He's practically reviewing all works in that section, which I really respect. And thus, he gets a vote from me for the Feedback Award!


::: Friendly Member Award ::::::::::
I'm sure most of you agree that this is probably the hardest award to choose a member for. This place is filled with friendly members, you don't know where to start. But, I already have someone in mind and this someone is known as Caustizer. I was in a deep depression a few days ago, knowing no one would actually care. I felt sad... and lonely. Then, he came, cheering me up and writing a small but very sweet and adorable story, just for me. I never felt appreciated so much before. Therefore, Caustizer deserves the Friendly Member Award. Thank you for being there for me~


::: Helpful Member Award ::::::::::
There is a great connection between the Feedback and Helpful Member Award for me. He's helping members to improve their works by giving them constructive feedback, me also included. Without his help, I wouldn't have a stable view of the gang in their teens and for the new design of my wingtails. Not only that, he provided me with artworks I've already lost, which is more than helpful. All good things come in threes so Pangaea, I really appreciate your help and you're the right choice for the Helpful Member Award! I'd also like to mention Caustizer for being a helpful friend too. :yes


::: Philosopher Award ::::::::::
Well, I'm not active at the more deeper discussions on this board, but I did notice that Malte279 is as philosophical as ever, be it a LBT discussion or a general topic. His posts makes me really think outside the common view, which IS actually a part of being a philosopher in the first place. And that's because you get a vote for the Philosopher Award Malte! And, although I don't know him that much, Jansenov gets a little mention from me too. :)


::: Proactive Award ::::::::::
She started as a normal member and before you know it, she is now part of the administration! I say Mumbling is a good choice for this award! Not only because I see her almost everywhere, giving helpful information and links, but also because she is in charge of the new Fanfiction Award, the very first time ever! :lol: And therefore, she get's a vote from me for the Proactive Award.


::: Role Play Gamer Award ::::::::::
Unfortunately, I didn't keep track on what was going on in the RP section so I have to skip this one. Hopefully, it'll change next year. :)

Is it okay for me to delete the images from my Photobucket account (I'll still have them on my hard drive, of course ;)), or would you prefer me to leave them up?
Yup, I have them all now. Thanks. :) You can of course keep them on you account if you don't want to delete them. If you do delete them, that is fine too. :yes

Quote from: Pangaea,Jun 22 2011 on  09:35 PM
P.S. I think you should feature "artist Sky" and the Glide portrait (the two images I shared at the end of my last post) somewhere in this gallery. Even if the wingtail design is "outdated" now, they're very nice pictures, and I really happen to like them. :yes
I too have both of them on my hard drive. ;) Both are now on the list as requested. :^.^:

It's times like this when I feel vindicated for being a pack rat; as luck would have it, I have a habit of saving my favorite online pictures to my hard drive, and that includes every piece of artwork that has been featured in this thread in the last one-and-a-half years. So, in the interest of helping a great artist to share his full history of LBT artwork, here be the lost pictures of the teenaged gang:

Oh my, that is so awesome!  :o
Not only because you're providing me with my lost artworks, but also because you're saving almost all my works. :o I feel really honored. :yes

Thank you so much for the pictures. Now all pictures (beginning from 2010) are online. :lol:
Thanks again Pangaea. :)

And again I have to say, this is the sweetest thing that someone has ever done for me. :DD It really helped me a lot during the past month.
The story is so adorable and a pleasant read so far. :wub I'm happy you're finally sharing it with the rest of the GOF.  :)

On a sidenote, I'm feeling much, much better now. :yes

There are many places I'd like to travel. :^.^: But since you're asking for ONE place, I'd travel to Rio de Janeiro! :D After seeing the animated movie 'Rio', I got really interested into it and I would really like to participate in one of the greatest carnivals in the world.  :wow

A little bit of update:

Forget what I said above... I've overcome my depression and I feel totally happy and relieved now! :lol: A feeling I hadn't had for weeks!  :D
Gosh, I'm so happy right now. I hope to add some new artworks very soon~ :^.^:

On a sidenote: I fixed some broken links, beginning from pictures from 2010 (page 7). A few links are still broken though (like the pictures from the gang as teens as I don't have them anymore :() All other pictures can be found on the first page. ^__^
Thanks to Pangaea for pointing out. :yes

Malte

What version of Photoshop do you use? I'm using Photoshop 7.0 and it seems that I'm unable to select multiple layers (newer version might have that feature).

Quote
However, I can only add leaves either onto the trunk and branches of the tree
You might have the 'transparent pixels lock' enabled. It allows you to paint on an object on the layer you have currently selected without painting 'outside' from that object.


or you have a layer 'grouped' to that object:

It's similar to the transparent pixels lock, except you're painting outside the object too, which is not visible until you 'ungroup' that layer.

Quote
or onto the background leaving the tree itself uterly "untouched" by them

Hmm, that's new to me. :unsure: Do you paint on the "Background" layer or a layer that is just 'below' the tree layer?

Because the layers above are always 'untouched' from the layers below them. That's the only thing I can think of.

A few screenshots of your workspace might help me to understand better (if those problems aren't solved yet with these solutions). :)

@ Im little green glyder :J

I'd say digital. I mostly use Paint Tool Sai to sketch, lineart and color (and somtimes backgrounds). Then I use Photoshop to polish the picture and add a few effects. :)

@ Pangaea
Well, I could at least visit the GOF for about five minutes, just to check what's new. I might get important messages by the time.  
But thank you for your concern~  :)
