Hi! My first posting here.

This was strongly inspired by Belgian artist Dany. I'm nowhere as talented as him, though.

Inking and coloring done in Gimp 2.7.1 in Ubuntu 10.10.

So, what do you think?

Looks fantastic to me; thanks for sharing your result and welcome to our site Kim.

Not that bad.... but if you become as talented as Dany don't post here, this is a family forum

Welcome to Gimp Chat Kimppi!

Keep it clean hey! i wouldn't want to have to ban you.
That looks pretty pro to me though. Nice job.
Did you scan the drawing and then fill it in or what?

Nicely done, I Dig!

Thanks!

No worries, I'm not going to copy Dany's subject matter, I'm just trying different styles.

I scanned my pencil sketch, but then I traced them with Gimp paths and deleted the sketch layer, so everything you actually see is from Gimp. (Btw Gimp paths are quite feature-rich, but seriously underdocumented. I learn something new every time I use them.)

Coloring is very basic Multiply layer flat color. I could do much more "pro" coloring, but this style might not be detailed enough. I dunno.

Nice work kimppi. to Gimp Chat!

Great work! She's a vision for sure! My only advice for improvement would be to give her red hair, instead of blonde. I have always loved red heads. The purple dress is perfect.

Seriously, Welcome!!

Yes but then you would have to change the eyes to green and well then the dress color would have to go
It could go on and on and on and on.
