i 'inked' the edges on photoshop, and i'm in the middle of colouring it on photoshop

Awesome. I love it, very original =) The heart could look a little more .. cracked though :D

Love it <3

Eh not bad, I dont really like his arms though. create job on this piece

Like crofty said you could "crack" the heart a little bit more

yeah, the reason it doesnt look very cracked is because i did quite a few rubbings out, but i have erased that on photoshop, and coloued it a bit

Ahh, i see =) Show us the coloured one :) ?

*partially coloured

the heart is meant to look whithered

Nah, I loved it originally. Don&#39;t color it. The black ink and pencil add the effect of goth/dark. Really nice effect, and the coloring ruined it.

yar, it was a first attempt...so it was more of an experiment, im going shade the actual picture with a pencil in a &#39;scratchy&#39; and &#39;gothicy&#39; way

Yeh that&#39;ll look awesome, can&#39;t wait =D

I dissagree and agree at the same time. I think the black ink and pencil did give it a great gothic effect, but the coloring defenitly didnt ruin it. I think with time you can get the gothic look and the gradient to make the robot look metalic. great job.

Gradients look too fake.

Use a brush on about 5-10%, and keep going over it =) A fairly small brush. 5px or less. THat should give a nice effect =)
