The dodge and burn tools... If your work starts looking like you threw some photoshop filters on top of it or you rely on it to do your shading then you should ease up.
I hate to say it but I think this one is borderline...still interesting to look at though.

I dig it. That's all. Rightio Zack. :}
frootcake (Feb 27, 2006)
i saw it and knew it was you, but its not your usual standard. that could be just because you didn't use a ref? if you didn't then its pretty creative and stick at it dude, its about time you did a pic that was only 9/10

Oh my, I absolutely love this one. It's a new favorite of mine by you. If this was for sale I would by it. It's ethereal and speaks to me. Frankly the burn and dodge tools are used perfectly here. Truly Axil, a stunning piece.

Just edited to add that this piece feels almost religious to me. Say portraying a modern day saint or apostle.

Something about this really caught my eye. It's very pretty, good job. : )
Axil62 (Feb 26, 2006)

thesolarwinds (Feb 26, 2006)
simply stunning. like passion and anger mixed into this fire.
Sweetcell (edited Feb 28, 2006)
I see love, it's burning, bright as anger, or as deep as passion. You are so the guy.

I had a dream long ago with Freddie Kruger as a math teacher on a space station. We were in the classroom and I couldn't get a problem (bad at math) so i called him over to help. He was bent over me going through the problem when I looked out of the large bay wall to wall windows and saw something coming towards the station from deep space. I asked him what it could be and the whole class ran up to the windows, Freddie then says "It's an invasion." I may have woken up, or the dream swithced, but it was something that stuck with me to this day.

Since we're sharing.

I love the loose style in this. Her face is so pretty, and I really like the skin tones.

Your art is awesome.
Sweetcell (Feb 18, 2006)
I echo all of the above, she has an 80's punk to her. I expect her to start singing "Hit me with your best shot."

It's midnight Cinderella, but don't you worry none
'Cause I'm Peter Peter the Pumpkin Eater
And the party's just begun

I guess your Prince Charming
Wasn't, after all
'Cause he sure seemed different right after the ball
I guess more than horses are turnin' into rats
And by the way he's walkin'
I can guess where your slipper's at

I'm gonna help you get over
Bein' under that spell
You're gonna learn to love midnight
Inside this pumpkin shell
I've got a few new magic tricks
Your godmother can't do
I'll show you what it means to
Bip, bip, bip, bip, boppity boo

It's midnight Cinderella, time that you should know
There's gonna be some changes in the way this story goes
It's midnight Cinderella, but don't you worry none
'Cause I'm Peter Peter the Pumkin Eater
And the party's just begun

I'm Peter Peter the Pumpkin Eater
And the party has now begun

Supposed to be a quick sketch until I decided to color it. Spent the majority of the time on that unfortunately... turned out ok.

On a side note, if you use alot of layers on a large canvas in shi-painter it's going to crash if your java is left in it's default setting. I found this out the hard way by ruining an advanced piece when I did a safety save after java ran out of memory. 2 hours of linework disappeared and no the undo button won't fix it and I had about 9 layers all mashed together in a big mess.

Anyway, try adding this to the Java applet runtime settings in your windows control panel: "-Xms64m -Xmx512m" (remove the quotes)
-Xms <-- minimum memory size java will use I have it set to 64Mb
-Xmx <-- maximum memory java will use, mine is at 512Mb so adjust this according to your system (I had to do this or the advanced piece I was working on wouldn't even load!)
Java is set to only use up 64Mb MAX by default...which is easily eaten up by several full layers on a large canvas.

*This stuff may not make a difference if you use less than 4 layers so if it ain't broke don't fix it...

Sean Penn, I believe? Well done Jay.
terracotta (Feb 10, 2006)
You nailed his expression; eyes and mouth great. Thanks for the java info--I have had a couple of saved pictures refuse to load or, if they were saved with layers, only partially load. They were neither large canvas or on the advanced board so I'm not sure if your 'fix' will help but I'll try it.
HunterKiller_ (Feb 10, 2006)
I dunno who that guy is, though he looks familiar. Likin' the loose style.
Jervy (Feb 11, 2006)
Thanks for the comments!
dapoppa: YOU WIN TEH PRIZE!!!! Yep it sure it Sean Penn...with a sunburn lol

tc: It should fix that if you run out of memory, but if the layers come up merged together...you only hope is the undo button. I'm lucky because I had an earlier save with the line art only so I can finish it in painter.

HK: Sean Penn is an american actor...the guy in 21grams or I am Sam.

I find it interesting how you flip the image several times when you did this... He looks like one of those murderous clown types, dark and scary.

I too am a saltwater enthusiast! I have never kept a mandarin, but I have keept the Scooter Blenny which is basically the same thing but uglier. My tank is bountiful with copepods; alas, he did not make it for some reason (about 5 months). I have had to swear off the copepod eaters.
Zack (Feb 8, 2006)
"same thing but uglier," lmao.
Opium (Feb 9, 2006)
man, I praise you people who have saltwater tanks. I get frustrated just cleaning after beta fish lol Beautiful job terra! I'm glad you stuck with it and were finally able to finish it so you could post it. Thank you for keeping at it!
