Trying something a bit different.

I'm practicing recolouring and shading in Gimp.

That's pretty awesome.

Thanks. I'm going to keep practicing using different lighting angles and shit so it doesn't look like I just added bevel and emboss to a rushed rendered character in photoshop without taking away the whole "cartoon" aspect of South Park's design.

Nice ork, much better than mine

Good work! You managed to make it look nice and clean.

These are really clean looking, nice work. I'd definitely like to see more using GIMP...

[Dogzilla]

Nice work. It's very smooth and clean. Make more!

How do you get clean edges? Just wondering...

I use the polygonal lasso tool for drawing in shapes, like the blue on Batman's Mask and his cape and I shade by creating a new transparent layer and drawing in either white or black lines with the paintbrush tool and then blurring them with a combination of the Smudge tool and Gaussian Blur filter, then I use the Eraser tool to get rid of anything that goes outside the "lines".

If that makes sense.

Thanks man! I know what you mean I'm currently creating a movie poster in GIMP that I might upload here.
I just need a main character to put on the front - a badass sorta guy (but not too old) anyone got any ideas?

Matt Damon from The Bourne Identity?

Maybe......

Now, on another note - MATT DAMON! MATT! MATT! MATT DAMON!

that is sweet
