My digital coloring of a delightfully-cute sketch of Ida (left) and Frida by :iconkaimona:. <3


Rather than having fun lining and coloring a drawing not my own, part of the reason I commissioned this was in looking at her various sketches, I had to see what this style of orca artwork would look like colored.

Thank you. :aww:

In this case, I'd say it's the excitement of playing a game of tag that's got their eyes looking so wide. :XD:

Thank you, for the compliments and for drawing the base on which this was colored. :aww:

I can understand the sentiment. By reactions were much the same the first few times I saw my work digitalized, by myself or by others. I can't say whether or not GIMP is the easiest to learn, but once I got the hang of it, I don't know that I could use anything else. Everyone's different, though, and if you find it's not for you, my advance would be to look into other programs like it, to see which one might work best for you. :)

Best of luck to you. I'd suggest looking up some tutorials on coloring in layers to get you started. From thereon it's just a matter of practice and finding what method works best. :nod:
