Thanks. I'm still very much a beginner due to large and frequent hiatuses and lack of formal training but I think I'm getting somewhere.

I saw the link in your sig on Gaia. I'm God-the-almighty there. I'd consider coloring for you once I gat the hang of layering. I'm an old pro at coloring and I'd advise you to learn.

Cool, thanks. I'm getting a bit better at inking but coloring is still quite a disaster for me.

Well, do you know anything about lighting? Its my current obsession. I've been trying to express lighting when rendering just black but I don't have quite the hang of it so it really shows when I try to do it digitally.

I've been studying it a long time.[link]
I''m not sure what you mean. Something like this or light reflecting on glass? This is from a WIP. [link]

something more like the first link. I'll show you a failed sketch where I'm trying to figure out lighting when It goes through the scanner. (there's a queue.) Then it'll probably be more obvious what I'm trying to do.

okay. my AIM is Rievou. My computer is always on but I won't be on for the majority of Wednesday due to class and the fact that I run Magic: the Gathering that night. But I am available all of Thursday.
