I've thought about doing one a few times, but no one has ever asked me to do one and there's a million other tutorials out there (though most of them aren't very good!). Another problem is that my process changes from time to time.

I'm using a new method right now that seems to be working very well. I draw the picture (or parts of the picture) in pencil and then scan it into Photo-paint and then I blur the image a bit to soften the pencil marks. After that I go over the whole picture using black, white, and gray only. Then I put the image on a new layer and set the layer to "Multiply" and put colors on layers under that in solid blocks. I use several layers. After that, I shade and highlight the colored blocks with a hard edge brush set at 98 transparency, usually. I used to just do the whole picture in the computer in color, but I'm finding that drawing it first in pencil and then going over it in black and white before I start coloring is giving me more detail and better proportions and it's also faster than the way I was doing it.

After I have the colors done, I flatten them together and make a mask around that and then invert it. I then go to the layer that has the black and white drawing and erase around it and then combine it with the color layer so it's now one complete object. Then I do a background. I've only done one picture like that and I'm working on another one right now. It's coming out well so far, so I may stick with this technique. It's certainly better than the way I was doing it.

This guy [link] has some good tutorials on his site. I don't like how he traces photographs, but his technique is good and his tutorials were really helpful to me.

I've put up all the video game related art that I've done in my gallery. There's not much, though. A "Final Fantasy VII" picture and a few "Street Fighter" pictures and a couple of "Darkstalkers" pics. I think that's it. I quit playing video games a few years ago so I don't draw video game pictures much unless there's a contest or something and the ones I do do are usually from old games from the '90's. Was there something specific that you're looking for?
