that is easy smeasy

nah I have no idea how to do that. paintball was right though the lips hurt when you look at it.

I loved the anime also. Great storyline with some of the best fight scenes that I have ever seen. What made them so awesome is they didn't have special powers to do them.

it looks like he traced the render and grained the fuck out of the bg
still hurts the eyes to look at

tracing something is also called "vectoring" and that is what I would classify what he did. I'm sure there is they way he did it and an easier way to do it, but I have never done a vector before. Maybe I should try sometime.

i didn't color burn them
light on the bottom layer, parts overlay on top, n then highlights added if needed.
pt of lightsource imo is to give the sig a reason to be lit the way it is, so u dont have weirdass highlights all over the front of his armor, for ex, when he's lit from behind.
+contrast'n all that, but any more of stronger source would cause yucky glare, or lit in place not want lit.
is same way u'd setup a 3d piece mostly
except it'd be more obvious since u could see your lights/range onscreen
