Let's start this off with some blind warrior doodle!
Not sure if female but possible.

And really good doodle.. BW (rather BG black-grey in this case) has its magic, isnĀ“t it? Welcome Xormak!

Btw Texture on the skirt is very interesting!

Really nice, X! In that genre, gender seems very unclear anyway, haha! :roll: :D
You really come in with a strong style and very unique! c:!
Feels like he/she is leaning quite a bit. Try flipping the image every now and then [F6] to check for balance.
If you wanted to use the warp mode to tweak a bit, I find it best to turn of Texture for that [t] and use either brush#6 or #1 with a low bias and really big brush size to carefully nudge stuff a bit.
But it's a fantastic start for your gallery thread! :ob

Successful debut Xormak! I tend to think this one is a she. We cant see some of her more "defining" attributes behind the armor c:! :D Tell your teacher I said that a handful of minutes is not enough time to see the possibilities that Verve creates. Tell him/her to take a close look at Taron's Spock picture and the summation of it's making. It's such a powerful tool geared towards the artist :ob c:!

Different style choice for a small school project :)

Conclusion: Verve can definitely be used for cartoony illustrations tho, the workflow and as i mentioned in another thread, the preassure control could be refined.

PS hopefully i will soon pump out some more painted stuff.

PPS: Taron, please find a new way to remove layers ;) I have to resize the window just to do that :/

How about [shift]+[delete] ;) :ugeek:

Also, for cartoon styles you may want to switch the paint mode to (=) rather than (>). That's the little button next to the paint action icon. Or simply hit [m] twice to get to this mode. [m] rotates through the paint modes, you know. If you're on (=) you will have a fixed material build-up that clamps at 1.0. This will avoid the heavy streaks or excess build-up.

Cute style, by the way! c:!

For pressure control, you can always bring up your wacom properties, too, and adjust the curve there, while I work out finer controls in Verve. There are a few challenges in the fundamental behavior of Verve, making this stuff somewhat trickier than in "ordinary" painters.

Hehe nice start! c:!
About cartoony illustrations, "= mode" + "brush 6" is definitely a winning combo.
