Falling art:- Digital anime art tutorial

Right so in my previous post I said I was going to be posting a digital art tutorial for my latest art piece, 'Falling Apart'.
The program I used to make this was only Photoshop CS2. Tools I used was a Wacom Bamboo fun tablet and pen.
*The techniques I show here are what I find best, you can try and find your own way, by using these techniques.
*I am using a tablet so, things will be different for  people that do not have one!
*Please click on the images to enlarge, for more explaination!

*I would say this style is a combination of realism and anime.

So lets begin this digital anime art tutorial!

New art:- Falling Apart

Hey! So I havent posted any recent art, or any of my art on here for a long time (sorry, been kind of more focused on my new blog ^^;)~

Aoi Portrait: Complete

Well, a few days ago I posted on my Tumblr that I was drawing 'Someone' now I can say its Aoi from the Gazette, with his new Pink hair!

So here are the steps I went to makingmy Aoi digital drawing.
I wanted in this piece to have his hair the main focus, to I made the rest black and white....well black and grey....
Any way lets begin!

Under the Water

Hey, well I'm finally back with a new piece of art :D~
This one is called, 'Under the Water'

Gackt Portrait:-Complete

Yay, so as I posted previous, I have been working on a digital portrait of Gackt, which to be honest I didn't even think I would finish! But I can actually say I did, and I'm so happy with how its turned out! :D~

So as I said in my last one too, I haven't done a digital portrait for ages now.The last time I attempted was a Miyavi one, which I still haven't even finished and is still at the same stage.....fail...I will eventually finish it....maybe haha.....
Anyway, I will show you the stages I went through to make this portrait of Gackt!

Gackt Portrait:- WIP

Phew, so this portrait of Gackt that I mentioned in my last post is not really taking me too long to do surprisingly.
Its been a week since I posted that, so I think its only taken me about 3 days, on-off, throughout that week....that's really fast for me!! haha......

What I'm doing right now....

Haha, well, I just thought I'd make a random post about 'What I'm doing right now'
...I really have nothing better to do, and I guess it can be a slight preview of art to (hopefully) come haha.

The Very Cloudy Flower....

There once was a Very Cloudy Flower....The End.... :D~

The Very Cloudy Flower... By MayonakaSun.

2 in 1 post tutorial and new art

Well these I actually uploaded on deviantART a couple of days ago.
First one is my finally completed Tenchi Muyos Ryoko fanart :D (Im uploading the stages towards so I can talk more about it instead of just saying 'This is my art' haha)

New art again!!

Well, as the title says this is another post about my recent art :)~

First one is called 'LoL....'

Ryoko WIP....

Well this is kind of just a question on how I should colour this.....
I cant decide whether to colour using Photoshop, or to colour using watercolour paints, or pencils.

New art....

Well, I havent posted this type of post in a while
so I thought I would :).

So the first one, is called, 'Shoot 'em down'.
This is what comes from playing too much 'Yakuza 3' haha....and when I start drawing 'Yakuza-ish' looking guys....ish and making him look similar to Daigo from series haha xD.

With this I tried makeing it look similar to an old-school looking anime like 'Cowboy bebop' or something, with the colours, lines and the huge gun in the background. I dont know if I have fully succeeded in this, but hopefully you can see at least some similarities to
  it.

Brush Tool Tutorial

Well, my friend asked me about brush tools the other day,
as in my college work I had little butterflies and roses and she didn’t know how to do it.
So I thought I would give you this so I can hopefully help other people too.
*All of these brushes in the tutorial/examples can be resized in anyway, to your preference.
*I am using Photoshop CS2, so things may vary in different versions of the program.
*All examples are below their explainations.
*More detailed look into the brushes are in the images, so please click the pictures to enlarge.

How to make an animated GIF

Well Im back with another basic tutorial for how to make a simple animated GIF.



*Im only using Photoshop Cs2, so icon and selection maybe different on other versions of Photoshop. The same basic properties are the same though.

*The exact same things can be done on 'Image Ready', but again there maybe slight differences.
Using only screen shots or your own images. Im just using Photoshop as it comes as more of a convience to me.

Anime digital art tutorial

Well I shall be telling you how I make a digital anime art painting using a scanner, Photoshop and a cheap graphics tablet, which is a Wacom Bamboo fun.
Please visit my more recent anime digital art tutorial here 'Falling Apart' -Digital anime art tutorial.

*Most/all the parts I made on all separate layers.

*All this is from what I know to do easiest, I am not the best and there will probably be much better ways of doing this, mine just comes as an example for techniques.

*I am only using Photoshop CS2, things may varies of different versions.
*More in depth examplainations on all the images, so please click to enlarge them. :).
*All images are above the examplanation of that section.
*This painting can be found on my deviantART page ->http://mayonakasun.deviantart.com/art/Pirate-Girl-126031671

How to make a basic banner

Well ok so this is a tutorial on how to make basic banners for your own blogs and websites.

First thing you need is Photoshop and hopefully saved pictures on your PC or MAC.

All I used was pictures I had saved on my PC.

First thing I did was open the pictures I wanted to use.

I will be using these for my tutorial. Simply click all the images to enlarge them the main image you will be looking at is the smaller sideways one.

New Art....

This is the ususal thing, showing you my new art.
Well this time its only one and its Rikku from Final Fantasy X/X-2....
Which can be found on my deviantART (sorry you will have to copy and paste, my links are still not working http://mayonakasun.deviantart.com/art/Rikku-152566675)

With this one I wanted to make it looks a lot more simple and change up my style
a lot. I tried making it look different, from making the colours simplier, the lines, and overall less detail.
I hope you can see that haha.
It took me absolutely ages for some strange reason haha, about 2-3 hours which is kinda bad really for what it is haha :).

But anyway, thats it, I dont know what else to type haha :D

Recent Art....

Just thought I'd post picture of most recent piece of art called 'Escape....'



So this is the preview version of it on my Photoshop.
Ive uploaded the real one onto my deviantART http://mayonakasun.deviantart.com/art/Escape-148163536

This was done in about 20 minutes, using Photoshop and a graphic tablet.
It may not be the best, but I'm happy with it :).
