Hehe, if you want to see it actually bigger, click on the "detail view" symbol below the picture (or simply here) .. that would be roughly the actual size .. just that it's only a fragment, in fact, the whole picture was that size ;P
Yup, I wanted the dragon to look a bit thick skinned .. after all, they have to endure loads of evil things, like dragon slayers and such X.x
Yes, I know what you mean .. but I thought it more like a flamethrower or such .. the flame usually steams out a bit and then goes upwards, but then again, you're probably right .. but I suppose it would look boring if it just went straight and then faded ^^ By the way, Spyro they have on the Playstation and on the Gameboy, from what I know.
Oh, the prints I mainly just want to play around to see what's possible and such .. it's pretty easy to do, actually , after you submit, you simply select what should be available (like cups, puzzles, shirts or such) and that's it. I'll probably try to get myself a puzzle, so I can look what quality it has (and then give it to my sister ;P )

anyhow, thanks for your nice comment, muchly appreciated, as usual ^^

Woah... @.@ It always amazes me seeing how big resized pictures of yours (And the few others I know who end up resizing their art) end up being... and then I realize how much work you put in and all the time it'd take and yikes... quite a lot to do, but well worth it in my opinion. ^^
And you're right with the skin and fire statements. The flame's a lot more kool looking, and the extra skin'd be good for the dragon. :3
Wow, I've heard of shirts and mugs and mouse pads, but puzzles sound really unique... and a lot funner. X3 Have fun with all the things you can make your art into... that last part sounded off, but ah well. x.x;

Yush .. but it's fun, you could try that too ^^ with your style the lines look a lot more precious though, since you already make them that small when you draw your pictures (I don't think you are resizing, or are you?) .. and I'm sure your pictures are just as much work as mine are, they are all stuffed with details and have pretty colours as well :3
Yup, the puzzle sounded interesting to me too .. hehe, you could get yourself a Nishi t-shirt, ne? ooor a big puzzle with everyone of your characters, that would be fun too, no doubt X3

Nope, no resizings here... though it'd probably be easier to do pictures that way... aside from the space it'd take up. ^^; Thanks though, I'm sure we both try our best on each picture to make them look as nice as possible, I just meant with your pictures usually being so much bigger that it'd take a lot longer... and be more work that way. ^^;
Puzzles and shirts, all those seem neat, but a shirt seems less complex and confusing for me. ^^; Lol, but your Toby-puzzle'd be fun, hope you and your sister (And whoever you show it to) has plenty of fun, as I'm sure you will. ^^

true, but then again, if you resized, I doubt your pictures would look so sharp .. they'd probably be a bit more blurry. Yush, I'm sure we both try our best .. and naw, I don't think mine take much longer, because you would spend your time on the pixel-y details, while I would just add them with a brush.
Hehe, but I somehow don't like shirts with pictures too much .. I much more like them in one colour (preferably earth tones ^^), and maybe a little logo somewhere (but I'd prefer completely plain ones over the ones with logos). puzzles however are fun .. you get to place the pieces together and have a pretty picture afterwards (if you did it right ;P ) which you can put in a frame and hang up ^^

I only really have one program that allows resizings to come out smooth, and it's not really meant for that, so I don't think I'd really try it that way until I have something a bit more fit for that sort of stuff. ^^; Your way seems interesting though, and it works too, and that's a lot of what counts. :3

Indeed, shirts with pictures might not be all that hip, and sometimes not as comfortable... but there're always coffee mugs, right? That'd be fun... though I may not end up using it much... perhaps a puzzle would be a funner (Though I'd be stuck on it for quite some time, even if I did the drawing myself @.@). Ooh, so that's what people can do with puzzles when they're done... At least for certain types I suppose. ^^; That sounds mighty nifty as well. ^^

Meep, yup .. but one can just see on your drawings that you don't resize, since .. well, the fine lines are exactly one pixel, without blurring or anything, so I guess these are pretty different styles - yet I like both a lot, because on yours you can see the effort and the details very well, even more than on mine - plus your style has changed a lot - especially looking at the first drawings you showed us, you have sure gone a long way - even if they always were cute with some interesting perspectives in the first place *nodnods*

Meh, my sister did that with the 1000-pieces-puzzle @.@ .. I could never do such a big puzzle either ^^; Naw .. I think shirts are more made for logos or such, than for pictures .. but coffee mugs are a nice idea too ^-^ Hehe, imagine, putting Nishi on a monday-morning-coffee-mug *chuckles*

Eep, the details in mine might be noticeable from looking at the picture since that's all there is to it, but you usually have those preview boxes of the actual size that show us more detail than we thought there was, and those are always fun to look at. ^^ You're style's changed a bit too in a way, especially with your character. With yoshies there isn't much you can change, except for getting the anatomy down or creating your own style for it, but with other animal creatures where you can do whatever you want with them, the design can always change a lot. From your earlier pictures (Which look really neat, btw ^^) it seems that Tobias' gone from a lot of different looks with his fur, facial structure, and his hair too. I ramble too much, but yeah, changes like that are fun to notice and you've gone a long way yourself. :3

Woah, that's impressive, but it does sound like it has a fun result. A coffee mug'd witha friendly looking character would be nice to wake up to, but maybe I'd make Nishi more cheerful if I were to do so (Or I could just use a friendlier looking character instead), that way it'd be more pleasant to wake up to. A Tobias coffee mug would be a super way to start off each week though, yahoo. :P
