What??? This is a very easy base to do, have you even tried to do it??? It's all pen tool work.

Ok I'll try it
I requested it because the pattern (the fingerprint like thingy) on the side and the hood looks way too hard for me (who literally had never used gimp until yesterday) and I feel like I won't be able to that part but I agree the rest looks fairly easy
Anyway, is this request considered rejected now?
Just asking

No, let me see what you come up with, we always like to try to get people to try painting, not one of the great painters did so from the start.

True indeed
I'll try to recreate the base tomorrow (it's 3 am for me rn) and I'll try my luck with that pattern too

 

[garrett1127]

I'll work on that pattern also.

I continued trying but I just could not make the pattern
Probably gonna need your help with that (that's why I requested this in the first place)

Looking good, learning the pen tool will be 70% of the battle on most base work. I'm working on that pattern.

Thanks a lot
Speaking of the pen tool, whats the equivalent to it on gimp? (I mostly used the gimp paths tool for this)
Update: turns out that the gimp paths tool is the photoshop pen
