Artist's Comments

Sorry for the huge file :P

By the way, something I forgot to mention in the tutorial. A lot of people say "why don't you just put the figures in on top of the background?" I guess this is a valid way to do it, but for me, I find that the figures end up looking like they're floating in the environment. If you're going for an animation-cel look, fine, but if you're painting both in the same style I think it's worth the extra time to paint it all on the same layer. That way they're sewn into the scene, not patched on top.

Thanks for all the support guys :hug:

oooh! Now I see! thanks thanks! though In my class we refer it more as a "scene" than "environment". xD maybe it's just the way my lecturer speak.

very useful tutorial indeed! thanks!
