Though primitive, its quite effective. http://groups.msn.com/purrhead/shawn...oto&PhotoID=51

All the lighting in that pic was made using that technique. (you can make a lighting or highlighting layer with the same technique).

Anyways, I'm impressed by your advancement in your coloring skillz .

Nice stuff, and that is a very acurate potrayal of Magica Dispell. Ah the classics. ... Dang its kinda crazy how there was actually a Duck Tales movie out in theatres, back in the early 90's. I just remembered that.... I'm old O.O;
GREAT- FINALLY SOME HELP /\/\
Thanks, I'll try putting that into effect in my next few picture(I also have an animation that I hope to colorise of Spot the Starcat leader reving up, running and dodging plasma gun blasts. Yes, it's big but it's almost finished.).

Actually, the thing about Magica was that I had just finnished reading the greatest Magica comic I've ever seen; 'Forget it' by Don Rosa(who's rapidly becoming my favorite.), and I noticed a few differences between the way Don draws her and the way others do: namely the wayward hairs on top and the fact that her dress shows a bit more cleavage...(Eh heh heh...) Since it was coupled with 'The Bedeviled Dime' which was the first scrooge story I ever read, I felt I needed to do something to commemorate it, so I drew her the standard way I've used to seeing her with those differences...
Oh, and if you ever get a chance, you should read 'Forget it', it's funny.

Also, I did see the Ducktales movie. It was really cool, especially the ending with that "Stop those pants" line.
