Hey guys i have a problem. I wanted to get into digital art and stuff but i'm not to good at drawing. I wanted to make a skin for a dragonball z mod(better not make fun of it!). I'm also using photoshop. Don't expect too much from me a gr.8 drawer. Can someone try and do someonething with it and repost it. I want it too look like bid for power's dragonball z models before it switched themes. Well this is all i can do....

may I point out how amusing it is that you refer to bid for power before they switched themes, yet are making a DBZ mod? Do you not know WHY they switched themes?

From the Bid for Power FAQ

Didn't this used to be a Dragonball Z mod?

Yes it did, we worked for nearly two years on Bid For Power with Dragonball Z characters until Funimation and Infogrames sent us a cease and desist order. We now continue work on Bid For Power without the use of the DBZ brand.

It's just them.... They weren't suppost to have a site like that. They needed to check everything out at first and they didn't have any support for the mod.

Ok I'm the wee BFP mapper person....

Hi keep in mind that our skinners (primarly Ansel and Rodney) have been skinning for years and do is as a career.
It just takes time to get good and be able to give it a professional look.

Anyways, I'm stoned. Night all!

Hey, here's some steps on how I do skins, I know it's not too informative, I'll have to do a new skin tutorial one day... it's been a while, heheh. For the anime look you should probably go lighter on the shading and have a harder edge on the shades.. in DBZ (and most cartoons) the characters have a base color, a shadow color, and a highlight. Sometimes they throw in a deep shadow color. I'm sorry my examples below don't fit with the anime style but I had some of the steps saved so I figured I'd post 'em maybe they'll help a bit.
