No, Raijin Z!

Thanks. I had done another Shredder pic back in about 1999, but I chromed his armor, and he had a slightly different pose... AND I INKED THE PIC. No sloppy-looking pencil lines, oh no! Anyway, the old Shredder pic and a lot more of my better art vanished when my hard drive died. -_-;;

coolmike1586 · 02-24-2002, 11:44 AM

thats gotta suck

hmm will u be willin to send me the shredder pic?

**Kali** · 02-24-2002, 11:46 AM

Bummer. I checked out the art on your site and it's all really good. I couldn't do decent CG if my life depended on it.

Raijin Z · 02-24-2002, 11:50 AM

Mike: Send it to you? The alternate version (Technodrome BG from the arcade game) is on my site, conveniently accessible via my nifty G.I. Joe-esque banner.

Kali: All it takes is practice. I've been CGing since 1995. I started with Paintbrush (Windows 3 Paint), and moved to Paintshop Pro 3 Trial version (for Windows 3). I drew Sakura from Street Fighter Alpha 2 with the mouse and colored her, but I only had a 16 color display! 640x480 on an ELEVEN inch monitor! AGH! Can you say nast pixellation? Anyway, I bought Paintshop Pro 7 a year or so ago, and it's been smooth sailing ever since. Anyway, all it takes is practice. There are a million and a half CG tutorials online. I made a couple, and I can point you toward some that I've found helpful.

Thanks, but I think I'll stick with my pencils and paints for now.

coolmike1586 · 02-24-2002, 11:53 AM

Raijin Z · 02-24-2002, 01:06 PM

Yeah. I use Adobe Streamline on some of my inked pics, but it's not always helpful.

coolmike1586 · 02-24-2002, 02:05 PM

Hey azure, we forgot to tell him of the pizza buffet.

**azure turtle** · 02-24-2002, 04:03 PM

*quickly looks around*
Pizza buffet?! Where? Where?
*dashes around like a mad-turtle*

Hi everybody.The roads were bad today going down to Sioux Falls from Watertown. There was this hot mama as a libraian that was starin at me and I got off the computer.

coolmike1586 · 02-24-2002, 06:58 PM

*trips over the red carpet as azure rolled it out*

HEY IM WALKIN HERE!

Raijin Z · 02-24-2002, 08:39 PM

Well, I recommend Paintshop Pro, personally. It's easy to use, efficient, and most importantly, it's not expensive. $100 new compared to Photoshop's $650. If you already uze Photoshop, the interfaces aren't TOO different. Thanks for the welcome, peeps.

coolmike1586 · 02-24-2002, 10:01 PM

sweet send it to me!

**azure turtle** · 02-25-2002, 02:21 AM

I just checked out your site, Raijin Z. I gotta say, it kicks major shell! I really like your artwork. You're talented, dude. And hey, I'm a big Mega Man fan! I'm assuming that you are too, based on your artwork. I think that the robot masters never get enough credit. Thanks for sharing!

I was just on a Megaman kick. I try to draw characters that don't get drawn much. I'm thinking about Pharoah Man and Samus Aran right now, but I don't draw very often. I REALLY need to draw my original characters, because I'm starting to forget what they look like. ;_;
