Artist's Comments

omg, can it be?! It is! A TRADITIONAL MEDIA PIECE!! Crazy. This was made with scratchboard in my cartooning class. Scratch board is a peice of black card that you scratch the black off of (using pointy scratchboard tools) to reveal white underneath-- to put it plainly. So yah, last time I did scratchboard I tried a lot of crosshatching for gradient shading. This year, though, I decided to stick with solid shading. So I went with a high-contrast pic I whipped up of--go figure-- Jak. Then I made a contrasty rubber stamp with Daxter :D But that's not being submitted :XD: So yah, enjoy!

PS. I signed my name in Photoshop. Just to go ahead and put that out there.

Envious of your use of shadows... and on scratchboard! My first thought was that you used a Sharpie, and with all the black space, I was just wondering how many marker fumes were inhaled. ;D

VERY nice.

Could that get any BIGGER? Jesus, woman.
Anyway, it's pretty awesome. I'd like to try scratch board sometime, but GOD would I suck at it. XD

no, it can definitely get smaller though :XD: My num lock was off so it didn't resize to 25% =\ I pretty much fixed it like 20 seconds after I submitted the big one, though, so you are just too early! GOSH XD

hehe, thanks very much ^_^ Yah, that would be a lot of sharpie O_o... I think that if I were to use sharpie, though, to save braincells I would probably use black for all the white bits and then just use the "invert" option in photoshop.. :D;
