I have to create a children's book cover for my project at college. It can be something that we have come up with or a existing charecter, if its an existing charecter it has to be drawn in a different style to what you would normaly see it drawn in. So I decided to do a book on the ThunderCats and I decided to do them in the Dragonball style of manga and because I dont have the time to learn how they colour the charecters I am air brushing it in Photoshop.

I don't think its too bad for a first atempt at air brushing in Photoshop. I also picked up a Trust TB-3100 tablet to help me do all the lines on it.

Wow, it looks much better with the hair, it definitely has a likeness now.

It's still missing the characteristic cat eyes.
Right now it looks like MegaMan decided to go Red today.
There are also lighter spots around the mouth and eyes.
I think if you add those in it'd be MUCH better. (Don't forget the long eyebrows)

Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

Yeh I know its missing the cat eyes but I decided to leave them out for the dragonball style ones as the cat ones didnt seem to fit.

and heres a Point of Sales display I had to draw in 2 point perspective, scan in and render in Photoshop
