Since I`ve tried to take a little break from my coursework, I`ve been up to some other little things, most of which involve helping my boyfriend out a bit...
As people may, or may not, know; me and my boyfriend are huge anime and pokemon fans, and when we`re older we want to go to Japan too! But before any of that can happen, we need to get jobs and earn money... All of the boring stuff that everyone else has to go through.
One of David`s favourite pass times is creating his own Anime characters and Fakemon designs, Unfortunately I haven`t done any
of his character designs over the holidays, but what I have done is a few fakemon designs.

They`re a whole lot easier to draw than before since I have a new laptop and new drawing tools to make sure the final thing looks neat enough for him. David hasn`t really got the patience for photoshop and he doesn`t know how to use it properly, so I turn his designs into digital designs. He simple draws them, sends an image to me over the facebook and then I daw over the top of them to create a digital layer on top of the original image. he chooses the colours and where they go, he chooses the small edits or wonky lines that I didn`t notice and then he gets to keep the final design that I make for him! Easy as that really.
The only thing that I still cannot do is the shading, I`ve tried adding the white highlights from where any light would hit them, but every time I then try to blend the white into the image it just doesn`t look as good as it did without the highlights. So trying to perfect any shading and blending on the images is still proving to be a little bit difficult, David did say that I`m slowly getting there, just a few more practices and I might have them done properly!
I might work on my own photoshop work soon and teach David how to do this at the same time, I`m planning on just photoshopping people at the moment and turning them into plain black and white images with bold outlines... You`ll see if I ever get time to do them!
At the moment, I do enjoy helping with this little fakemon designs, I just need to teach myself how to blend and add highlights properly before I get ahead of myself and try to design completely new things for my own work.
