Oh Cat... *poke poke poke poke poke* You're not lifting more than a piece of paper are you? -> (yes I did it)

Make your hubby lift everything, even if it's an overly sized toothbrush that weighs more than paper ;D

Anyway...

Thank you ^__^ I'm glad you liked the art.

[~*Cathy*~]

HAHA very funny. I'm being careful with what I lift and stuff, okay Mom? LOL

And of course I love it, they're great!

[chrisangelo]

Did you just call me your mother!? I feel so honored XDD J/k. Well... not that I wouldn't feel 'honored' if it were the case but it's physically impossible for me to be a mother *phew* and I'm younger than you so........ unless we have a time machine now there is a thought!

Anyway XD

Thanks so much oh and Cat, you should check your email ;D

[~*Cathy*~]

LOL Don't feel too honored, I actually don't like my mother. LMAO Plus, you're right, it's just too impossible. but should would make for some interesting conversations, dontcha think? LMAO

[phoenix]

*you don't like your mother!??!?!!?!?*

XD

Well some mothers are just unlikable... I guess I'm like to have one that is -likable-

Oh and -note- to everyone who likes my art. If you enjoyed Turbo: APRM, and know how obsessed I am with just JUST - Kim's role, then expect some more art soon <3 I also will be opening a threat for other PR art like Rocky/Aisha and Wes/Jen!!

[phoenix]

Hi everyone I am not dead.............. at least not yet ;D

Here is a piece for the story I am -producing- Never Say Never.

Woohoo, he's alive!!!!!!! ;D Like the colouring and the detailing on the text (purty reflection-action :

And I'm stoked to see your new thread!!!!!

[rapunzl]

Gorgeous. I really love the images you chose for each person, and the added touch of Kim and Tommy gazing at each other. The background and blending is impeccable, as always.

[jps1926]

Great art piece for a great story so far. I'm glad to see you're not dead Chris, just resurrected huh? LOL

[Kim]

WOO HOO!!! I love it *gushes* Sorry, can't help it. I love those powers and that time of PR! *bounces up and down*

[nfty07]

I love it.
if the teacher doesnt like it than tough because as long as you like it than that is all that matters

[phoenix]

Thanks Nifty

I honestly don't care what my teacher thinks anymore. He completely disregards graphic design as art so anything he says goes in one ear and out the other.

[nfty07]

Your Welcome

My english teacher is like that say somwthing to him and it doesnt go all teh way through

[nfty07]

I soo can't wait to read both fics. I love the poster, it makes me want to read the fic now

[Kim]

Poster looks awesome, and I can't wait to see the story

[wk88]

If Shawn's the king of T/K writing, I nominate Chris for the king of T/K art.

[twinflame]

I Love all your artwork and I agre with wk88!

Dually noted. LOL

Great stuff Chris!! I finally got caught up on your posts (so the last five arts you posted) and I've loved every one of them. Can't wait for more!

[wk88]

Damn man, that's awesome stuff right there. AJJ looks freaking gorgeous. I apologize for this in advance, but I'd chop one off for a shot at Amy Jo. You'd think after 16 years I'd get over it, but I've loved her since I was five years old and I think I'm always going to. LOL.

[~*Cathy*~]

Well, you already know what I think about this one, but I'll say it again. I love it!

I think you did a great job; knowing what you started with, and seeing the finished product. I'm glad I could be of some assistance too! Thanks for not just telling me to shut up, when I kept giving you suggestions.

Love it, and can't wait to see more!! (hinthint)

[.liz]

Wow, Chris! That is beautiful! It's a great manip. The face looks a bit sharper than the rest, but I guess that's how you intended it to be _{and we've got to see Amy's pretty eyes clearer} (: Yay for Cathy for helping too!

I think it's great that you put the artistic details. Selective Color is my best friend too! Never really used shape blur though, usually I always play with motion blur; maybe I'll try after this (:

As always, you managed to create something beautiful and totally you. Loved it!

[lilsmiles]

My favourite part is the colouring... It's just pops right out of the screen!!! So pretty! And thank you for sharing some PS tips

[nfty07]

OMG. That is soooo amazing. I wish I was abe to do stuff like that
great job

[White Firebird]

Amazing. That's all I can say about it. Amazing work man.

[Kim]

Great job kiddo. I knew you'd get past the coloring irritation Looks so purdy.

[rose19586]

OMG!! You are awesome! I love all your designs!! =)

[phoenix]

wk88: First off... back off my woman! Second of all thank you very much =D. I'd definitely have to agree it's made of awesomeness!

~*Cathy*~: You know I would have never finished it if it weren't for your help so once again I want to thank you! For some reason you always amp me up about my art haha... hmm... what else will you use your powers on?

.liz: I used to be so old school about coloring. I'd actually use color layers and then sharpen and burn the areas that I wanted dark lol. Don't get me wrong, I still do that, but selective color is soooo addicting. Thanks Lizzy =D

lilsmiles: You always love my colorings =D I wonder when you'll get sick of them lol.

nfty07: When I first started building websites... erm 5 years ago I didn't even want to think about making graphics. I just asked other people to make them... but I learned easily that graphic designers are bitchy so I started on my own. Practice makes perfect ^^;


White Firebird: =] thanks. Once again I know it's awesomeness.

Kim: Does being 19 still mean I'm a kiddo?

rose19586: There are many awesome people in the world, but I'm glad I'm one of yours =D thanks Rose!

AND

Thank you to all who viewed and didn't comment, hope you enjoyed !!

The answer simply is never

Liking the new wall. Although, Tommy's head looks a bit indented and mushed, if that makes any sense at all. And your background image is beautiful, did you make it yourself? It's so nice to see you returning to the dark backdrop, even though I loved your lighter ones just as much! Smilies for Chris! ;D

[phoenix]

Actually there was like a plant or something covering his face that I had to edit out so that's why it looks that way I also used the smudge tool on both Kim and him to make them kind of have this 'pop' effect where it looks like their half blurred / half in focus =D

And also, I've been told I should do more lighter stuff so I'm actually glad you enjoy my darker art. I feel definitely more comfortable with it, I always feel like there's so much more you can do with a dark base than starting with light

P.S. the blending is also much more effective with dark backgrounds, and the lighting settings work way better. If you try to erase with white backgrounds it gives it this gross gray tone to the outer border, like if you use the dodge tool too much.
