Aha! Was about to guess that next. First pic really looks like Jet Black. Would be way sicker if you hit up some older animes... are all your customs anime-themed? And what do you use to do your customs?

yeah you have to bare in mind that at this point when the pic was taken it was like only half done. loads of graphics missing. outlines and fades. ill try and russle up a finished photo.
in regards to what i do.
some are yeah!!! have al sorts really went through a period of graff's, classic japanese (lame), standard patterns, no im more focusing on very techy faces and city scape design.
in terms of what i use. again all sorts, started of with those posca water pens which were pretty good actually and was well easy to do, just took a bit of time to get good colour consistancy. moved one to paintbrushes and sponges.
for last year or so i have been working with air brushes, this has enabled me to get so technical and has inspired me to focus more and more time to design.
it takes a while to get this style right but once you have hit up a couple of good designs and you get you technique down you are laughing mate.
whats next who knows, if anyone has any other styles techniques that they use please let me know.

EDIT: My apologies in advance for even THINKING of posting a link to a N*** design... so mod's and my fellow adi-addicts don't click if you're weak at heart!
Semafor, I'm not trying to hate, but don't you think your design looks an awful lot like RAZOR SHARP's over
here?
I mean, damn near identical... but maybe great minds think alike... just wondered if you'd seen 'em before.

It's a similar picture, but then it's the same character, so it would be.
Otherwise I hardly think you can accuse the guy of copying someone elses work.
