Backrounds aren't a big deal to me, so that's ok.

Yeah, I've realized that... I don't really mind, but I'd like to reach a "regular anime" style as well. Yeah, I'll need help with both anatomies then OTL

Well, this is the process I go through:

-Scan 300dpi
-Use pen tool (=_=) and make the lineart
-Color flats
-Fail shade
-Shrink
-Post on Internets

I cannot, so far, draw well on my tablet for my life. I can try, and show you, but I definitely need help with actually drawing lineart. Photoshop (CS4) doesn't let me use the pen pressure setting....

Yeah. Only one direction. Ok, so have space between the lineart and shading.

Really?? That'd be so helpful~ I'm online everyday during summer, but my school starts on 16 August and I'm not sure about my times then. I'll try to see when you're online~

Update:

I've been working on light coming form the viewers' direction, and also abandoning the pen tool. I combined both practices into these pictures: [1][2]
