art tips
God damn guys, im very very bad at art when it comes to textures. I need some tips, not the;
Open gimp
Set attributes to 128x128
make a face
wear it

but i think my main problem is, what tools? what tooooools
I use gimp, I have ps CS5, which would be better for me to use?
I know your thinking;
Go google it!

but this kinda art is totally diffrent, i need some help, anyone who gives me good tips are highly appreciated.
Basically, the Pen Tool is one of the most efficient ways to draw lines/outline things in GIMP and Photoshop. You click a point, and then another point, and it draws a line from point 1 to point 2. It's pretty neat. There are also other variations of the pen tool that can make curved lines, you can freestyle, etc.

But yeah, what Fenris said would be some better options than just trying to use a pencil tool, etc. Try experimenting with different brushes and tools. Example: I tend to use a low opacity smudge sometimes to make things look more blended, etc.

The more practice you have and the more experimenting you do, the better artist you will become.
