[MsFantasyArt]

[AnoNeko100]

Do you know how to add backgrounds to anime pictures??

Like for example, I drew an anime girl on a blank white canvas, now i wanna add a background without drawing OVER her, how do i make one where it appearsto be behind her?? i know you must use layers but how should the be set up?? ? The anime girl has already been coloured.

[DasRoteWunder]

WOOAAAH, this is AWESOME! Not fat. Perfect.

[CaptainAntique]

well made, good job.

[Aeromusique]

Fat? It's called "curves".

If she's fat, I may as well jump off a cliff.

[dini28dong]

How to download GIMP?? (confused)

[MICKEYbrm13]

@dini28dong "getgimp.com"

[valura3]

Why the heck people think the girl is fat? I look like WOAAHHH when i saw it, i didn't find her fat at all, she got curves and that is the first thing in woman to draw my attention. Well done ♥!

[XxchibikitsunexX]

woah

[o0art0o]

[DuckiezFan]

the legs are a bit cyborg but aside from that its great! nice anatomy

[ami12321]

Oh wow, your terrific :]

I aspire to be able to draw that well.

[RuuKa8]

[Antlephore]

GIMP vs Photoshop

[rockchick136]

@Antlephore: gimp rules all the way.

[Seyxxx]

because?

[nanderv]

Easier interface, shorter loading, lower price, more effects, don't have to buy new versions (it's free, duh), cross-plathform (windows, linux, mac), You have to get used to the interface though (if you use windows). It's based linux style of menus (edit -> preferences for example). It's easy to use once you've learnt it though.. And there are tutorials to set up your tablet in gimp.

[Dooftac16]

@Antlephore i like photoshop a lot but i havent tried gimp. i tried to download it but my compy slapped my in the face and said no

[MarieAngel95]

Hello!

Wanna enter my drawing contest that ends 1th december?^^ I think you`re really good at drawing :D

[Nanaleechan]

GIMP ROCKS!!!!

[AmiraFrazier]

GIMP SUCKS!!!! or maybe i just didnt download the right version perhaps?

[Nanaleechan]

@AmiraFrazier you problably didnt =w= i use GIMP2 :3 and you have to learn how to use it for it to be useful :P

[AmiraFrazier]

well yeah your right. but i tried it and i really couldnt work it but now i'm working with Photoshop and its pretty good.

[spazzout123]

@AmiraFrazier I downloaded gimp twice. the first time i used it, i was absolutely lost, and decided it was useless. I learned a bit more about photo manipulation and digital art, and then downlaoded it again. gimp is now my savior, and is drop dead amazing in my opinion.

[nifapa]

what is GIMP ..??

[jatosoft]

essentaily gimp is a free photoshop.

[TheSnosk8]

gimp is a wannabee photoshop program that is JUST LIKE IT but it's free

[Amberlyn7771]

its better than photoshop -.-

[Epsillon42]

That's why everyone has it...

[iwritebooks]

just a free version (and some say that it is better....honestly i don't know because i don't own) photoshop

[Sirmau]

quite impressive but there is one little glitch, her upper middle body does... or if I may say, it does not measure. It's just my observation.

Overall, fantastic work, lots of time invested and may you get a reward for doing a great job.

[beansbob11]

Wow, This is so beautifullll!!! TTuTT

[Kookiez66]

you made that look really pretty! 5\5!!!! :D

[Death82]

lol everyone will be pissed with me but

this is the first time ive seen a fat anime character

............but it is a good drawing

[Kazumixxo]

naw i agree with cha :p

[NinaUmari]

I don't think she's fat--but you are right in a way; she ain't as skinny as others I've seen.

[OtakuPowersActivate]

Not quite no.

However, the clothes are loose and give the impression that she's bigger than she actually is

[DarkDEATHSecret]

XO AMAZING! UR GREAT!!!!

[FireBriethingSpyro]

wow! thats realy good! Anime`s skirt looks real!

[Temarieevee]

wich version of gimp is that? because i have 2.6.0

[vanbanx]

Very nice!

i'm still getting the hang of GIMP but your vids helped a bit ^^ could be better tho.

now all i need to do is save up £2,000 for a drawing tablet... "dangit"

[FreakoChu]

£2,000 ??!!! I spent £99 for one Wacom Bamboo Tablet, and it's really good

[METMAN92towhoknows]

you mean a tablet you hook up to your comp? or a stand alone tablet/convertable computer?

lol i wan't both. the computer is expensive but wacom bamboo tablets, like FreakoChu mentioned are quite cheap.

[MikaTakashi103]

GIMP is free yea, also it's fast to download only takes 1 minute to download the whole thing.

[sarrrrah3]

im down loading it now its takeing forever T.T it looks rely good too

[MikaTakashi103]

It went fast when i downloaded it.... Maybe because your internet is a bit slow?

[feddyboiz]

if you're not using a tablet, then that's really good.

[ganandowf]

dude wtf is up with her legs?!

[hotpiebob]

i dont see any problem with them???

?_?

[vanbanx]

i think she is ment to be standing in water or sumet :P

he just hasent put any detail into it,

[cheerfulchickz]

Is the "gimp" free?

[xXJalacoXx]

Yes.

\\^// Jalaco \\^//

[chihuadog08]

[AlonzoandJemima]

[chihuadog08]

[ziberteck]

great detail, i don't like the actual picture(just because of personal preferences) but a lot of talent.

[ADHARA92]

Your drawing is very nice, very impressive!! I tried a few times before to draw using GIMP but unfortunately i failed to do so coz it is really hard to control the mouse especially when you want to sketch...

[otakuofanime]

awesome anime style. are ufrom korea of china cuz it looks kinda like manhwa or manhua! keep it up!

[TAMMYXL3AH]

oh wow thats amazing

[sexilady72]

[OverlordRijii]

[hyperanimegirl4lyfe]

omg this is insanely good! WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE HOW INCREDIBLE THIS IS!

[dattebayo12310]

D: finally someone who doesn't draw crap they learned from a freaking american manga book.. GOod Job!!

[animefreackgonecrazy]

OMFG!!!!! IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL TO BE THAT GOOD. . . oh wait a sec. . . then that would mean ugly anime guys . . .noooooo!!!

[commissioner123]

[KittyCute12345]

I dont have Paint, GIMP..... all i have is Corel DRAW.... It really sucks

[Shirviu]

The program he used is free so if you were interested, it's not that hard to get

[nolainaro]

can you tell just what program did he use to draw this can you tell me please i need to know.

[Shirviu]

He wrote it in the description...he used The GIMP.

[xXJalacoXx]

Wow that was amazing!!! I wish I could draw like that... I wish I could draw...

\\^// Jalaco \\^//

[ifeelprettyohsoprett]

Oh my... Oh my... B-E-A-U-TI-FUL!

[iExcelStudio]

buy a wacom tablet first... then come back and pm me how.

[FoxKomet]

It's true, when you first start out with GIMP you are like, "WTF?" (Unless you are really good at computer art...or something) But when you start to use it more, and know how to use it, it ca be just as good as Photoshop, or even better...

[Miesje10]

Me too, zelda1125

[zelda1125]

how did you learn how to use GIMP???!!

because i just like downloaded it and i have no clue what im sappose to doXD nand im like only 11 and i have no idea what halve of the things meanD:

[Diegog5]

I had no clue either. Just use it and you will get use to it, experiment with the tools.

[Enselic]

Watching GIMP tutorials here on YouTube will help you get an overview of what is possible, and how to use GIMP.

[Angelandghost2]

11? o.o aren't you a little young for youtube? xD

[ChloeAnime]

Awsom vid im obsesed with anime and im 11 and im not too young. some day i hope to be this good at anime

[mikk6739]

Just want to ask a question..

[wataruxi]

Gimp rocks~

[belle2545]

[whatheal]

[ZenelShabani]

You forgot the neck :) it should have been dark ccouse there comes no light. Or am I wrong? :p

COOOOL CLIP BTW

YOU ROCK !!

[MewPudding2006]

YOUR !REALLY! GOOD!!! i admire you sooo much!!!

[darkbitterangel]

how long did it take?

[teeheelol]

i wanna do you >_> is this all done by a mouse ?

[Getchar]

No, I use tablet pen.

But I don't use any pressure or tilt sensitivity, so the tablet pen is used same as a mouse.

I'm not good at drawing lines with mouse, so I use tablet pen. But you may use mouse instead if you can control mouse perfectly ;D

[bitterdoll27]

what tablet pen are you using?

[MydniteDaun]

@Getchar I use the mouse to do most of mine cuz I can't afford a tablet pen. Once the practice has taken hold, it's not too difficult. But if stuff collects on the pads underneath the mouse, it can make it twitch around n stuff so you gotta clean it alot.

[kobato96]

@Getchar

What's a tablet pen?

[Dianathegamemaster]

@Getchar oohhh you use a TABLET pen...no wonder its so perfect! see, i dont have a tablet pen 0_o

[MsFantasyArt]

@Getchar can you tell me what king of tablet you use?:3

[KoroshiSama]

Sugoi!

[amatsu1614]

[GegoXaren]
