p.s your lineless art looks really high quality art! do you use use the same models you draw for every update? or you just redraw them everytime?

seems like it is made in flash, no?

I use SAI to draw them, and Photoshop for any other effects.

And yes, I do have dedicated models for all the characters (and poses). But SAI tends to degrade the quality of the layers the more you use/modify them. They get all blurry and the colors begin changing.

So I often find myself having to redraw them. But that’s good because then they look even better than the old models! Sometimes I just redraw them because I feel like it, or when there’s errors in the pose or general look.

I would use a vector-based program like Flash or Inkscape, but then it takes away the fun of actually drawing. Also, Flash is hard. .A.
