I bring you fanart~
Like... whoa. ^^. First art and fanart from me in the year 2006. (I actually started on it last night, but yeah.)

(Sorry to anyone who sees this posted more than once. Crossposted to tori_shishi)

Features Ootori and Shishido from Prince of Tennis. Yay. <3. I drew Shishido when he still had long hair, because I DID NOT want to draw the

OMG CUTE!!! ♥
Shishido's expression is great, very him-like. XD And his long hair~ Wai, now I must draw him with his long hair too >_

[daburusu]

Yes. XD. ♥
His long hair is loveee. <3. And it's probably easier to draw than a cap. Because I suck at caps. D:
I love his expression. Hehe.

[crychicken]

Caps are evil, hats might be easy but caps... Especially the way he wears it, backward that is, makes it two times as hard to draw. x_x
Ohtori's blush is great, it's very Ohtori-like too. <3

[daburusu]

Yeah, but I think drawing the brim of a cap is hard too. >__<. If I tried, I'd have to look at a lot of reference pictures. When Shishido wears his cap backwards... you have to draw the curve of the hat just right, or his head looks really weird. XD.
I was going to draw Ootori with his eyes closed, because it would have been cute too. But I didn't, because I like to color the eyes best.

The brim isn't hard for me to draw but like you said, the difficulty lies in the shape of the head! Shishido's head looked like Oishi's when I tried to draw him with his cap on once. I was really shocked at how bad it looked. =_=
The eyes look totally shiny, like marbles. Reminds me of cat eyes, especially Ohtori's. Btw, your shading is great, I wish I was as good as you. XD

[daburusu]

XD. First Shishido looks like Yuuta, and now he looks like Oishi, eh?
I like both of their eyes the same. ^^. I was experimenting with eye coloring styles on them. :D
Yeah, I sucked at shading at first, and I'm still trying to improve. Practice makes improvement, right?

[crychicken]

Ugh, stfu you! XD Guess I can draw anyone just not Shishido. ;_; That's a lie of course, I haven't even tried drawing anyone else yet
At least you know how to use some program to colour them. Is that openCanvas thing easy to use? And a free program? XD; (I have Photoshop 7 but I'm too lazy to work through it)

[daburusu]

I have to draw other people too. Like Kaidou. And Inui. Together.
I think openCanvas is easy to use, but then again, it's what most tablet users use for lineart. I just happen to use it for coloring as well.
The oC version 1 is free, but I haven't tried that one. 03E Plus isn't free, but I didn't pay for my version (but don't tell anyone), so I've sent it to a few friends.

[crychicken]

Me too! When I'm done drawing all those ToriShishi pics, I'll draw some InuKai. XD
I don't own a tablet yet, so yeah... Will have to stick to copic marker and the like for a while, I guess. Don't worry, I don't pay for most of my progs either. XD;
