I think it would rule with tons of grey, black and white... :)
Or maybe it's me that I've been reading too much manga, but I think it will look cool :P

Everything looks better with color of course. XD You just need to work on cleaning up your transparence a bit more which is the hardest part of working with it. just go along really carefully to erase along your outlines to get rid of that bit of white that shows up on dark backgrounds. For help, make a layer of dark blue or something under your artwork allowing those white specks to show up so you can erase them.

You mean, a lot hues of grey? Like raster-foils/raster-layers do?

Yeah, sorta embarrassing, I only noticed the white dots and not-so-clean-black-lines etc by now,  XD. I sometimes use a dark BG to check, but I often forget xD. Thanks for reminding. :)

colored. Although you really need to shade Emma: she really contrasts with the detail you put into the bat.

Yeah, I see. Well, it isn't finished, so... lol :P
I didn't mention, but I didn't make the texture of the bat per hand. I searched some pattern from google and inserted it. XD

I think it would rule with tons of grey, black and white... :)

I don't know if it's actually the name, but this is what I meant:

You use them to get shading- and texture-effects, mostly in Mangas (but of course in other art-work too).

I see what you mean though... I'm a fan of this concrete shading, too. I just don't use it too often XD

Yeah, it has its benefits, too. :)

XDDD Basicly my stuff stinks. (Look up, it's a texture. XDDDD)
