Zophia poked me to make a thread. I know this will die off quickly, but I guess I could just show off some work in progress, and what I have managed to do by combining MsPaint and GIMP.
The first one is the outline. It is done in MsPaint, since GIMP was acting up.
The next two is the coloured result, both coloured in GIMP (It was acting okay again) The difference is the outline. The upper one is with the original outline:
With this one I copied the outline and blured it. So the original outline is on top, the next layer is blured, and then the colour come:
The last one here is what I will think of as the conclusion. A gradient layer from GIMP, smudged out and adjusted, again with the smudge tool. The lazy solution, I know.
Work in progress, right? I do not know if I am going to make it any better.
Did Cen kill someone, or is that just rust or something on the pole?
Well, I hope it is blood, as I intented it as such (along with the spots on his pants and jacket, but those are probably hard to see). And I will like to pretend he did, just for once, before he goes back to being Mr. Nice-guy-follows-rules-all-the-time again.
Might be the angle I'm looking at my screen from, but that last one... It's like the blurry edge is seething, and along with the silhouette, it gives it quite a creepy look. o.o

It was possibly what I was trying to catch. Nah, I would just conclude I still cannot draw trees, and I cannot figure out to do the pictures in a print friendly setting...
I like the tree. it looks pretty cool. i wish that was an armatar. great job !
Does not really fit the current theme, and it is probably not very good as an armatar > > But thank you.

Don't no what you are talking about, that is a great tree, if I had to criticizr something it would be that same branches almost look like feathers, they are so thin where they connect that you can't actually see where they connect.
