It is obviously evident that I am both very VERY bored and lacking in inspiration. I wouldn't do this otherwise 'cause I generally a very lazy/busy (depending on whether or not I have work to be doing) person.

So! Sketch requests are open. Now, usually I say 'only for people who haven't made a sketch request before can apply' but I can't be bothered to check (see, lazy).
Therefore go ahead.

RULES! For there are always rules.

1. Two characters MAX.
2. Provide a reference.
3. If you really can't provide me with a reference picture then a VERY detailed description will be okay. But you can't complain if it's not exactly how you pictured it. These are free after all.
4. Nothing that goes against DA's rules.
5. Preferably nothing that has a crazy amount of detail.

Bear in mind I'm better at people. I will try with animals but can't promise they'll be as good.
I will draw het, BL and GL.

First 10 get it. On your marks, get set, GO!

Misc life update:
Not exactly doing anything. There is nothing to do. Made an attempt at finding work but have failed =_= Reading a lot of the Dresden Files. Playing Pokemon. Watching Torchwood. :shrug: Not terribly exciting, I know.
Saw Public Enemies at the weekend. It was not very good. I was so bored and eventually started getting annoyed that no one had shot him yet.

Later y'all
:heart: L-O

I noticed that you use MangaStudio. I had recently had made something with that program but I can't get the export picture to turn out how it looks in the program. Do you have any specific specifications for your exports? Or could you point me in the direction of where I'd be able to find such information. :3

BTW your comics look really nice.
Hmm, when you say 'it doesn't turn out how it looks in the program' when you've exported it, what exactly do you mean?

I can tell you what I do. I don't know if it'll be any help but I hope it is ^^;
First there's export type. If I'm exporting just lines for a regular picture that I intend to colour then I export by Pixel Specification. If its a fully toned page then I export by Size Specification.

When you export the image make sure that in the Output Data Settings that Output Finished Image, Output Text and Output Tone are all checked.
Also make sure that the pixel ratio to the original is 100%. I also export as a .png file thought not for any specific reason.

When you open it in an image editing program it can look weird, generally because of its size, but if it's printed from that program at full size it'd turn out just as it would if you printed it from MS. For posting exported images online I resize them in Paintshop Pro and they look fine. Some of the tones can look a little blocky but overall it looks okay :)

Ermm...if that doesn't help I'm sorry.
And thank you :) I'm glad you think my comics look nice.

Actually, that's a really big help. THANK YOU!

The quality was looking really bad when I exported so hopefully this will fix that problem. I also have PSP so, that helps knowing I can resize them and they'll look fine. You don't have any problems with moire I'm guessing. Is there any specific size that you use (resizing I mean) that works best so it doesn't 'cause moire or anything else?

Once again thanks for the help. I greatly appreciate it.
When I make images in MS I always work at 600dpi. Then I either use the 'Japanese Postcard' size in the Custom Page settings (which is about 2362x3496 pixels) or the 'Doujinshi B5, A5 finish' template from the Page Template settings (including the bleed this is 3638x5102 pixels). The former is what I use for lineart and the latter is what I do for comic pages.

I usually resize my comic pages to about 600pixels wide, which generally gives me a height of 842pixels and the quality of that can be seen in the pages I have posted in my gallery.

I'm afraid I don't know what moire is ^^; Problem with toning is that it is recommended you do it at the size you wish to print. Unfortunately this is usually bigger than is suitable to be posted online and the tones will be slightly distorted when resized.
