THESE ILLUSTRATIONS WILL BE SCANNED IN BETTER QUALITY FOR THE ACTUAL GUIDE.

EDIT: Holy heck I hate this scanner. It ATE most of the colors and most of the sketchlines (which are part of the style I'm using) can't be seen. AAAGH!

So yeah, I'm making a fanbot creation guide. :D I have all the text for it written out, so now I'm drawing the illustrations for it. They won't appear in a big chunk as you see them here, though--I'll be rearranging them on the guide.

Experimenting with a new style with different kinds of pencils.

Ugh, SAUT-A and VN-GO gave me a crapload of trouble. Especially VN-GO. WHY did I use him as an example like five times when he's such a BUTT to draw? I think I'll replace him with a different bot for some of the examples...

KU-TO actually gave me a bit of trouble too, weirdly enough. I had trouble making him NOT look like a girl because of his optics. XD;; So I gave him ANGRYEYES since I couldn't get his optics to look right drawing them normally.

See the "1-2" on the bottom? This is the second page of illustrations. The first one contains a bunch of other pics, and there'll likely be a couple more pages of illustrations for the rest of this first part... I've got a lot of work ahead of me.

*sighs* Unfortunately my parents have been busy so I haven't gotten my files from MUR-E's hard drive yet, which means I still can't use programs like photoshop and the like. Ugh. So unless anyone wants to collaborate with me to put the guide together, it'll be a while before I actually release the thing.

All these bots belong to Pixar, except for...
KU-TO, who belongs to :iconessoe:

If you're having trouble with the scan quality, have you tried increasing the DPI? What do you use to scan - a scanning specific program or the Import feature in Photoshop? I know you can increse the DPI with PS but don't know about the kinds of programs provided with scanner/printers.

...Um, my mom has some kind of mammoth scanner/fax machine/printer/copier that I use. There is no Photoshop on my mom's computer.

My own scanner I cannot use because it's too much of a hassle to hook it up to my mom's computer. I can't use it until I set up a new computer that I can make MUR-E's harddrive a secondary harddrive in.

KU-TOOOOOOOOOOO! XD

Actually, have you tried getting a copy of Paint.NET? It's like Photoshop only open source and free. I think it also reads PSDs too. This might work for the stuff you need to do.

I was aware of that, but what program do you use to scan? I was wondering if it might have some settings to get it to scan more fine.

It's no specific program... just whatever came with the scanner. oo;

There are settings but they're not as advanced as the ones on my scanner.
