This took a lot shorter time than I would have thought. XD about three days I would guess. >.> This may win out in the battle of the CG styles for the most part, since the other style is like... a week, maybe more, and that's for basic images. It will take me about a month for the other CG I'm working on at the rate it's going -_-' In any case!
Why 'Test'?
I tried a ton of things here.
1. Obviously the light source.
2. Thick lines.
3. What I HOPE qualifies as cell shading.
4. Using opacity for erasing rather than coloring. (Example being the blindfold.)
5. Melons ACTUAL skin tone.
I failed that last one because she's still a little darker, but I'm not complaining.
Obvious mistakes (Also known as 'Don't mention them unless you can explain how to fix it.' XD )
A. Melon's Eyes.
B. The dullness on Kat's hair.
C. The lack of proper shadow on the left side of Kat's body ( >.> Yeah, I noticed. I just got to a point I couldn't fix it without going insane.
D. The BG from Crapsville, Lol.
E. The jaggedness of Melon's black outline, I learned a lot from that there. F. The broken looking leg on Kat. I really could use tips on fixing this. I make this mistake ALL the time.
Okay. Done now. A hug to all who actually READ that.
Lastly! Go visit [link] it's an awesome place to hang out, talk about anime and Manga, and my favourite place to RP. You can even get C+C on your artwork.
I really like the blindfold that Kat has, it looks nice in my opinion. ^^ I wish I could help on the things you listed wrong, but I don't know how, sorry. >>;
I like this though and your character Melon has cute feathers in her hair.
looks very nice, i think the cell shading is good but on things like the skin the curve is unnatural and doesn't seem to be where the real shadow would be... also theres too many colours with the cell shading... most people go with the main, the darker and the lighter and there done... some go as far as having an even darker spot but thats usually very small in comparison to the rest of the slightly darker shadow. so with light... here you have even bands of colour and it looks like the object is flat because of it.
her upper lip (kat) also looks a little off i dunno if it's a shadow or a line but i think the pic would be better if you removed it... maybe instead put something like nuetrual lip colour there if you wan to get the same effect but even better...
but yeah... i like the blindfold, the pose (other then the broken leg which i dunno how to fix... next time try doing the pose yourself in front of a mirror... that may help.) is great
and yeah keep it up
This is a rather interesting coloring job, I think you so cel shading pretty well. A not on Kats leg, draw it at more of a agle that follows the leg, pretty much all you should see is the foot and very little leg. Now I wanna try to draw something to cell shade lol.
XDD I know I buggered on the legs, that was the area where had I payed more attention I coulda done it right.
Thanks for the leg advise, that will likely help

Actually, aside from the legs (which had I paid more attention I coulda fixed.) I quite like it. and, I'm not going to use ONE shading and ONE highlight, or even two. To me it's totally lazy. It may be fine for an anime, but for a number of still pieces. *nod nod* I may stick with this shading over all, but tweak it.
As far as the lip goes, yah XDDD I was trying to figure that out but failed. I think I'll go with the lip color next time. If at all, I'm unable to do proper upper lips. I like the blindfold too. XD
Hmm, I don't thing that'll work XDDD No floor length mirrors, and trying that on the bathroom counter could get me hurt. My problem is that I cant figure out forshortening so I tried something and mussed. I learned from it.
