How do I make beautiful anime pictures like the ones in the links below and where can I learn to do it? (I realize some of these may actual be different styles, too.) Thanks!
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location) is a decent site with a huge numbher of artists, and art, in it. Some people put up sketches and the like, not simply finished art.
One artist I am familiar with, Yukito Kishiro( GUNNM/Battle Angel Alita), has a decent site with a lot of his artwork in it, from sketches to cover art. Though much of his art is toward the cyberpunk end of the spectrum, I refer to him in this due to the fact that he goes into some detail on many of his pieces. He also has a number of rough sketches posted as well.
Much of his newer, and more processed art is at the top, while many of the pencil - only art is at the bottom. I think many of the pencil sketches/rough computer art are good to see how he puts everything together. May not be your cup of tea, but I thought the technique to be fairly good. Plus he lists if he uses software, and what he uses. [ Erronius's advice column | Ask Erronius A Question ]
