Graemlins

Bella · 03-12-2003, 05:31 AM

Hello all, I am having one heck of a time trying to make a graemlins (the little emotion icons. I have not been using photoshop (6) for a whole time but am learning everyday something else.
I am trying to make a couple, a doctor, and a pharmacist for a board I am on. They have asked me to do this and I thought it would be easy. Boy was I wrong. I am having a harder time with this than changing my sons dyper.
If anybody could send me to any info or any kind of help on these i would very much appreciate it.
Thanks, Rhunt

Hi rhunt and welcome to the board [righton]

I don't think that any of us can teach you how to draw; you'll need alot practice for that.

I can only help you with Photoshop and maybe provide some painting techniques.

Do you mean an "emoticon" such as we use here to express "emotion" [confused] ? If so, this is, indeed, a very difficult task for anyone fairly new to PS! [saywhat] That really is a web-art form (pixel art) "all unto itself"!

If you're really serious about this particular art, this is a decent tutorial that might help you to get started http://www.computerarts.co.uk/tutori...l.asp?id=32297 Just remember, you still have to have some 'drawing skills'...

Best Of Luck with your project!
