[With much help from my friend] [Elthia]

I've been drawing since I was a kid, like 6 years old.
I've always enjoyed it.
My favourite style of drawing is "Manga". Why?! because i've been inspired by the anime "Dragonball Z". That came on TV when I was 12 years old. I paused the television screen, and began to draw it. I drawed really good, though it was not my design.
On the age I am now, 15, I have been drawing much of my own designs.
My Poster started with a simple idea of mine, [Limbed].
It is my Character named, Limbed. Because it was my very own thought up character which i designed months ago. But that was still a rough. I really liked that character, even now! I guess that is the reason why I am redrawing it to a Poster.
Though, when I have put something on my mind, I'm not letting it go. And if I am going to do it, I am doing it in the BEST way I can!
So my preparations were HUGE. I've been redrawing my character for almost a month on A3 format!
Of course, I didn't want it to be a 8 A4 papers pasted to each other. No, that would be to amateur. What I am going to do, is very similiar to what a pro should do.
I want to edit my design with photoshop. Straigten the Lining, Colour it with the computer, so it isn't crappy as if i would colour it with my colourpencils.
BUT! I cannot work with Photoshop that well. So I have asked a friend of mine here on Elftown if she could do it for me.
I asked [Elthia].
She's resized it to A1 format and started straigtening the lines, colouring, adding light, adding shadows.
The steps [Elthia] and me ([Limbed]) have been put down here. So all of you can see our work!

I, [Limbed], have finished the sketch on A3 format for my poster A1 format.
I've blackened the lines with a marker. I did this because I was bored. and I've given the decoration of the coat a red colour. Because it was very unclear what the decoration was and the lines of the coat itself.

[Elthia] is done with the colouring of the coat. The face and the jeans will come later
No shadows or light. That'll also come later. PATIENCE!!

[Elthia] is done with the colouring of the drawing.
It's totally coloured now.
Only the light everywhere, and the shadows on the coat and the jeans are left.
And I have redrawed the eye. Because I got some hate letters :P.
AND!
I need to come up with a background.
People!! HELP ME OUT!!

I'll keep you guys up to date..

[pyrochick]: pretty

[Limbed]: thank you =D

[Phoenix Ashes]: The detail and the pose is really good i like how you have made the coat look similar to feathers... the only thing that hit me that looked odd was the eye, it is too large, it needs to be small and narrow to give it a kind of thoughtful look

[Limbed]: okay... thanks chris.. you're quite right.. i'll change it later.

[Wunjo*]: Ik Vind em echt Mooi! Alleen Hij kijkt nogal.. geschrokken, geshockeerd haast. Ik weet niet of dat de bedoeling was maar het lijkt een beetje maf. Voor de rest issie erg goed, de Details op de jas vind ik heel vet. Misschien kan je nog iets op de achtergrond doen? =3

[Limbed]: ja.. dat waar jij op let.. zijn precies de dingen die ik nog moet veranderen.. ik wil de ogen veranderen.. ik moet ze ietsjes kleiner maken.. en wat meer gevoel laten uitstralen.. en wat de achtergrond betreft.. ben ik nog niet helemaal uit.. ik wil beneden.. lang groen gras doen.. met een beetje een winderig effect.. en gewoon een mooie blauwe lucht.. wat sluierbewolking.. en misschien een zon..
