KW's Vileplume

[icycatelf]

This is my latest PokePic:

Someone from another forum requested a Vileplume...
therefore I made one.

Comments? I already know that it is fat...

Cool pic KW! I really like Vileplume's flower and the way the background looks like it could appear in the TCG. :)

As for crit, I think the picture is a bit blurred. If you're worried about it looking jagged or rough it's a good idea to draw a bigger version and then resize it later to smooth it out.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks FG!
All my pics seem to blur when I use them in PPT layering...
I don't have a prob;em with jagged edges but it's the halo (the white line around the pic) that bugs me. I try to smooth it hoping that the halo would kinda fade away, but it doesn't work...

Ah right. Yeah, using the blur won't get rid of that halo :( You could try using an eraser tool to get rid of it - which program are you using?

 

[icycatelf]

I'm using PhotoMax SE (it's not really a popular program).
I try by just using the fill option which takes care of most, then I try to erase the extra dots (considering that my pics are normally drawn on paper and scanned). I'm afraid if I get too close to the pic with an eraser tool I might mess up.

Ah, how cute! =D I agree with FG--It really DOES look like a Pokemon trading card. You know, the holographic kind xDD It's really pretty! The effect looks like it was intentional anyways, so I wouldn't worry about removing it xD It does look a bit blurred though, but overall very cute <3

Nice. I like its spots on it's head. Nice background too.

Hmmm, I'm not familiar with that program. I would try the eraser though if it has an undo tool! :) You've nothing to lose if you save beforehand ^^ A hard eraser might not work too well but a soft one should look good.

I'll try doing that when I make future pictures.
Thanks for the comments everybody; they're appreciated.
