SWF's are good only for backing up. when uploading use GIF.

At any rate, you need to work on your curves more. Use the Elipse tool for the eyes.

**Brad Clarke** · 05-30-2006, 05:30 PM

pretty nice grissom, I like them.

**Grenade44** · 05-31-2006, 09:06 AM

They are great pics

**Solid Snake** · 05-31-2006, 09:10 AM

Lines are a bit thin though.

Everyone says that. That's just my style of drawing I guess, I think they look fine with the thin lines

Yes.

Use Export > Export Image instead of Export > Export Movie

I'm not trying to shoot down your pic. Since it's pretty good for someone starting out. But, if you work at it, then you can pull off stuff like this:

This is the same thing, which I also drew in Flash, but I spent a bit more time on it. Patience is the key.

**Grenade44** · 06-01-2006, 11:05 PM

Thanks for doing that

i hear ya on that, i'm just trying to get as much practice as i can, thanks for the tips

My first attempts at creating grabpics:

I used Flash and the coloring guide from LTBQ for the pics.

**grissom** · 06-02-2006, 01:26 PM

Pretty good, aside from a few small flaws. Lisa's eyes are huge in the first pic

**Lisahugger** · 06-02-2006, 11:20 PM

Yay, Lisa!
Your "first attempt" turned out very good. My only nitpick is thin lines. Aside from that, your grabpics are great, especially the second one.

Keep it up!

Good work. Now that I think of it, the old Scratchy is very black compared to the grey one from the recent episodes.

**Suus** · 06-07-2006, 04:22 AM

Some more grabpics

**Lisahugger** · 06-07-2006, 05:40 AM

Those are just great! Nice moments chosen for the pics, too. Sweet stuff.
And again, the second one is my favorite.

About a month ago I drew some new pics for the first time in aaages:

Bootlegged Scratchy: http://www.simpsoncrazy.com/gallery/...ratchyCool.gif

Here's one of my all time favourite pictures I've made:

Thanks!

I used some thicker lines this time and the pics look better now.

**Suus** · 06-11-2006, 01:39 PM

New grabs:

Does anyone know/have a good guide on shading? :O

**Lisahugger** · 06-12-2006, 08:02 AM

Awww! For some unknown reason I loved the first one. Nice moment.
Second picture is great, too. My only small nitpick is slightly deformed pupils. It's unnoticeable on the avatar though.

But the first one... it's simply sweet.

Re: shading - I'm not sure about that. Almost all shaded grabs I've seen so far looked worse than the originals. Usually people use simple Photoshop filters for that, and the result looks more "embossed" than really shaded. But if you'll manage to prove the opposite, I'll be only glad

**pekk** · 06-12-2006, 05:09 PM

Lisahugger, what a surprise that you love a picture of Lisa being hugged. =) I love it too. It's the same feeling as the one with Marge holding baby Lisa in the rocking chair.

This is of course my favorite thread and I think you're all making terrific pictures! Keep 'em coming!

**garret** · 06-15-2006, 03:32 PM

**grissom** · 06-15-2006, 03:51 PM

Nice job on those Gorak

**~~#1bartfan#1~~** · 06-17-2006, 07:35 AM

a good place for grabpics is capefeare.com

**Solid Snake** · 06-17-2006, 08:45 AM

Well Duh.

And about 125 of those are mine.
