@ Mrmo: Brook from One Piece? Also, I love the way you dither with the small circles.
@ a3um: Awesome....frog? Although I think you need to go all out with the afro and really make it big and round. Edited by Lathien - 07 November 2011 at 9:29am |

Erm, I've only watched the first ten or so episodes of One Piece, so I wouldn't really know :)
*edit* Google image search shows me Brook is pretty much a Slash expy (regarding the style), so that's not really an afro :D Edited by Mrmo Tarius - 07 November 2011 at 9:39am |

I thought that too based on a google search but it's definitely an afro, and it's always called an afro in the show. But, must just be a funny coincidence. Although you really should watch the rest, I'm near 400 myself and Brook only just came into the series though.

Not really the style I was going for :/ ![]() Muffro definitely sounds like something quite different. How about "the chocolafro muffin", or just "chocolafro"? No, not quite right either. |

@Chibiwing - scatter the highlights more throughout the hair.
@Mrmo - For your second guy - the face is looking great, but the hair is very lacking. I know it sounds like a bit of a cop out, but perhaps try making his hair a solid colour. |

@skamocore, that's because I haven't really worked on the hair yet :D expect an updaet :)
@chibiwing, much better, you can also scatter some 'middle' tone throughout the 'shadow' tone, too. Makes it look more 3d and less flat :) Also, regarding contrast, you could use different color ramps for the hair and the face! Or alternatively, you could hueshift the highlights (or shadows) (or both). |

![]() This is a bit rough but taking shape. Does an Afro need to be round? I think he's looking more like Mozart Elvis - needs a white fro and a piano maybe... Headband and round fro I reckon.
@a3um - that is great
@offwhite - That's a cool muffro Edited by Gavralcraw - 08 November 2011 at 2:34pm |

![]() I know it's basically the same muffin, but I wanted to try animating it. I would really appreciate some tips on how to make smooth animations, 'cos it's my very first time animating stuff. |
