Cyrus Siridius & the long wave of plushies
lashtal posted a topic in Contests, Quests and Adventures
So, the anniversary is over, but a new wave of plushies is descending on the realm. As you may have noticed, Cyrus Siridius has been caught trespassing Necrovion and met a premature end. Who is this fellow? What do we know about him? This is what a very accurate autopsy revealed: You have one week (deadline: May 11 23.59 server time) to draw an avatar for Cyrus Siridius. Quoting Aia, the drawing should be in black and white (no colours).

I decided to mess around and sketch an idea I had for an avatar. I'm really new to this game, so I was looking for some advice on how to make this better.

[size=5][u][b]Photoshop CS3[/b][/u][/size] Before I begin, I would like to say that I have Photoshop CS3, every Photoshop version is somewhat different, but versions CS1 and CS2 may be similar to CS3. I am not certain of this. Not everyone will do this process the same as I do and not everyone has Photoshop. There are most likely simpler ways to edit the avatars, but this is simply the method I tend to use. [u]First: Cropping/Cutting[/u] When you open your picture, cut away a lot of the white space by cropping the main part of the picture. I do not use the crop tool usually, but instead
