This is a screenshot of my screen... (like it cud be a shot of anything else :P)

anyway currently I've started a Samus pic. I took a pic from the galleries of Metroid Prime and am tracing it in Flash (same as I did with Megaman)

I'll let you know how it progresses ;)

Just let you see this to tease you all.

Yeah...her armor is really hard sometimes...grrr...I was sketching a pic of her the other day and if it wasn't her shoulders giving me trouble, it was the helmet...>.< You did a nice job, though! It'll be cool to see it colored...:)

The helmet wasn't that bad for me. This is the pic I copied. As you can see beneath her helmet and between her joints is very dark so I had trouble finding out where the lines started and ended so I kinda had to make it up :P

Took me a couple of hours. Not that long. Most of it was spent doing the circular areas (circles are HARD) and the dark areas I cant see.

Calbhach: Sure I'd love to see it.

Wow, that looks really really nice! :D

I wish I could afford a program like flash (although I'd probably use it more for animations anyway). I also wish I had a tablet. And maybe a laptop. And a car (wait, I'm 14).

Oh well, I'm just a lost cause I guess :sweat:

Put it this way - If I don't post a finished piece - you'll know it was rotten ;)
