      @AustinShurtliff I color it ALL in by hand… I’ve tried a few work-arounds (brushes, copy and pasting fills) but nothing looks authentic and the edges look goofy.

      And sorry to do a big process post here. I’ll put it some place else next time- I didn’t know about a blog section?

        @MarcRobinson This is so good. I love the concept and execution is really good. Sorry to hear about the 72 dpi thing. I've been there before.

                  @annastenger, don't be sorry. I'm super happy you shared that here. We once did a blog posts where we featured SVSLearn students, and I was just thinking it might be fun to do something like that again, especially with some of the changes coming to SVSLearn.

                    @annastenger your colour harmony is always bang on. I definitely need to be more conscious of selecting a limited pallete like you do.

                      @MarcRobinson Oh thanks man!! I had historically been so bad with color that I had to pull in the reigns A LOT and focus on just a few hues with tints and shades... I'm getting a little more confident lol

                        Since I haven't really done any covers, I decided to dive into one for the September Prompt.

                        @MarcRobinson @annastenger @cgibson Loving the entries for this month!

                                        I've not been on the forums for a long time, but have been wanting to do one of these entries and was able to squeeze in a little time to get something done.

                                            If you're going to try to make a machine that turns toys into real creatures, I guess you should be wary as to what you put in there!
