I actually did a search this time for a topic like this. I was surprised there wasn't one! I have something to share with all of you.

(sorry it's not a link. NBCI doesn't allow clicking on links to images.)

I hope all the A E Phi's, DZ's, KD's, and AGD's are happy.

It's a drawing I did on the computer, of the mascots of all the sororities on my campus.

Hey KayDee--

You did that??? That's awesome!!! It was too cute.

Hee.

Do you have any idea how difficult it is to make a turtle look even SLIGHTLY femanine? LoL. I actually like how the squirrel turned out the best, with the giraffe as a second... The Turtle and Bear were the first two I did, so they were kinda the experimental ones.

How did I do it, newbie? Oh, boy. Quick technical explanation.

I have a drawing pen for the computer, so I can sketch directly onto it without using a mouse. I used a light grey color to do a "pencil" sketch, then I filled in the color. I shaded next, using the airbrush multiply tool, then I did highlights with the screen tool. Next, I added the detail work, and lastly, I outlined.

Sunglasses were done with a multiply tool set on low opacity. Of course, I gave the bear the cool army fatigue shirt.

GO AROTC!! That's it, in a nutshell. Took one day for each of the figures. I also just realized I forgot the middle part on the Giraffe's tail! Oh, no!

My major is drawing, and I'm going for a degree in character animation on computer.

I was especially inspired by lion king. Hee.

I printed it out and hung it in my office...just need to add some AGD letters to it.
