My new IZ themed art

Hey all, just thought I'd share my newest Invader Zim drawing with you. Well atually it's Tak and Mimi. For any of you that saw my other pics I think you'll agree that I'm getting better. later

don't know the cartoon, but /me likes drawing.. shows promise :smile:

My younger sister watches those shows I think on Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network. Maybe add some color in their.

Its been quite a while since I watched the show so I can't remember if Tak looks exactly like that (I thought she had more features to seperate her from Zim?), but its a very nice drawing anyway :smile: I'm using a Gir CS:S tag at the moment :wink:

Thx all, sorry there isn't color, I usually don't color.

I like your drawing. Simple but still good-looking. Haven't ever seen
or heard of the cartoon. Is your avatar from the same cartoon? Looks
kinda alike.

Yea, In my picture It his Tak and her modified S.I.R (Standerd. Information. Retrivel. Unit) but she calls it Mimi.

In my avatar It has Zim and Gir, a defective robot made of scrap S.I.R parts.

Ah but from those red eyes, its obvious he is working effectively for once :smile:

Yes, that pic is from the episode "Gir goes crazy and stuff" were Zim gets fed up with Gir's beheiver and decides to lock Gir into Dode mode which makes him work correctly :eek: But in turn the now functioning Gir sees Zim as the stupid one and a threat to the mission and trys to destroy Zim, they even add something from The Terminator

quot "Your meahods are stupid! your intellagence is stupid! for the sake of the mission.. you.. must.. be.. turminated!"

I'm surprissed that many of you Europer have't seen the show sence that's the only place it's still being shown.

What a nutty show. My friends like it, though I've never seen it. It's also abound on the Internet in the form of P2P, so it can't be that bad.

Hit it with a blacking pen and you're all set :smile:

It is in pen

Then make the black solid black. Use PSP or PhotoShop.

In the scan it does look like you used pencil *cough*likeyoushould*cough*

NooOoO

Blacking pen is different from "pen". It makes anything you draw come out, well, black. With no streak lines -- waayyyy better than your ball point pen :razz:

And that's what a blacking pen is for Crono -- solid black.

Oh sorry I guess you mean a professional art pen. In that case no I havent, it's really just a sketch.

To Crono: I did it in pencil first then went over in pen.

My avatar I drew using a pencil. Then I just used photoshop to color it in.

In reply to Reno.

Most of what makes Tak look different them Zim is the colors. You see, the Irkens define what color uniform a soldier wears by what color there eyes are. Since most Irkens have red eyes (like Zim) they have red uniforms with grey/pink neck/arm openings. But Tak is one of the rare Irkens that have purple eyes thus she has a purple uniform with pink neck/arm openings, plus since shes a female her uniform has a more finine look with different shaped arm pads, look at the attached images.

BallBlue I'm going to punch you in the face. I know the difference between a ballpoint pen and a PrismaColor (for example).

To be honest, if you want to ink something with physical ink use a goddamned fountain pen with Higgins ink or something as such, otherwise use your computer, you can always print it out for a physical copy (by the way, work at at least 300dpi resolution if you plan on printing something out to avoid compression.)

half-dude, perhaps you should try to color it in Photoshop as well?

I dont own photoshop its to expensive.

I think you should be able to download a free trial from somewhere,
probably their homepage. And there are other free alternatives, even
though I don't know their names (gimp?).

You can download a Photoshop tryout from here, <span class="smallbody">151.6MB in size</span>:

http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=39&platform=Windows

You have to register and create an ID though.

thx man I'll try that some time, though I've heard that its hard to learn how to use it.

Like you say half-dude, some of the free trial programs are hard to learn. And by the time you can use it, your 30 days are usually done.

A lot of people say that Gimp is almost as good as photoshop, and has the added attraction of being free. You can download a windows version at http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/

There's links to tut's there too.

If you download the trial of Photoshop, or borrow it from a friend or
"get" it someother way (;)) then you can find some tutorials and links
to other tutorials and resources here:

http://www.b-man.dk/tutorials.asp

or just google for Photoshop tutorials or something and you'll probably find a bunch of more or less good sites

i had a working version of PS, i un-installed it in favor of PSP8.. i am sure PS may be better, but it was much more than i needed, and i had no inclination to learn its nuances to make it more valuable to me.

PSP8 looks so much like PS, why bother for more??

I got Jasc's PSP 8 in the Power Suite Edition last March for my birthday. I haven't used it yet expect for about a few hours. Once HL2 comes out however I will be burnig a hole through the CD.

If you didn't get that because your stupid, it was a metaphor.
