I'm submitting this for critique. Before I paint my dragon/jhereg I wanted to try to make scales with just paint instead of painting each one individualy (too insane). The wing is fine, it's exactly how I wanted it to come out, but the body scales are a little iffy.

I used both tablet plug-ins, the space bar nearly placed all the way to the right and tried different strokes, some circular, some cross hatching. Some paint, some burn and dodge, I'm not sure.... Help would be most welcome and wanted. ;)

Thanks Gerbear

Axil62 (Apr 29, 2006)

I love this too, but I thought the red thing was the positive probe on a multimeter.

Mal (May 1, 2006)

Has a native look about her. So glad your painting again. (bout time)

Axil62 (edited Apr 26, 2006)

Thanks all. I just burned the shit out of my hand on a muffler. Kids, if you're riding your new toy, and the canister on the muffler starts getting loose, don't try to delicately, tippy tip finger tip, eech, ooh, ahh, ouch, tighten the 10mm nut just enough to make it home. Now, I know you'll probably try it anyway, so if you do, for god sakes do NOT let the meat of your thumb at the bottom of the palm touch the exhaust pipe...not even a little bit ok? Promise me. A nice example.

I bet that smelled like bacon...
MMM...home cooked hand bacon

Axil62 (Apr 27, 2006)

enjoying the pen tool

It is indeed fun to look at. I enjoy the solid, individual strokes of your pen paintings.

woah_pockster (edited Apr 25, 2006)

your lines are so loose and undefined, but the way you make your strokes makes the whole portrait so detailed and you capture a depth that you just can't do with just airbrushing (or whatever other tools) shading.
you're wonderful =]

Sweetcell (Apr 25, 2006)

It looks like you made some pen strokes over a real photo, so well done.

Axil62 (Apr 25, 2006)

Yeah kinda. I had the ref up in PSP so I could look at it while I drew, used ALT + TAB to switch between the ref and Shi... look at ref alt + tab...draw...alt + tab... look at ref....alt + tab...draw...back and forth. Because the ref and the canvas don't fit on the screen without overlapping. Know what I mean Vern?
