I had that trouble the first couple of times I drew here. I think it has to do with the toggles that I don't understand yet. Like on the far bottom left and the far bottom right. I have learned just to stay away from them. One has Normal by it and another one has blend or something. If you are on the wrong layer it seems like you cannot drarw either but you are just drawing on the wrong layer. Read the wiki and it might help.

Thanks Laura - I have been struggling through the Wiki but I need to go through it line by line with a drawing open so I can practice as I go along - if you see what I mean . . .

I have no idea, but when I saw the thumb I thought it was Stifler's mom xD

drawn in 43 min

I think eyes were too close together so I pulled them apart, now I think her right eye is above her left eye.....argggg. Will work on some more later.

Aakyra (Mar 26, 2008)

She reminds me a little of Erika on one of the soaps... don't really watch just like noise while I am getting ready for work! Nice QT!

QTgillie (Mar 27, 2008)

She is Mariska Hargitay, as Meno guessed. Now that I look at her she does have the Erica Kane from All My Children Aakyra. Still have no idea who Stifler is Anatomic. Thanks everyone for commenting.

His face has some interesting hilights. Not quite sure how i feel about that - maybe a little to pronounced? hmm it does kinda fit with the stylistic nature of the image though.

The lighting is really sweet - how did you do that?

mooki (Mar 26, 2008)

you can feel the light

Oh, wow, this is very good Starz and very refreshing!

FuzzyWuzzy (Mar 31, 2008)

Oh my goodness, well done, I wish I could see colors like you do, water is so hard to draw, this is so calming to me.

KuteDymples (Apr 1, 2008)

This is pretty, water drops are so very hard for me to do and you have done an incredible job on this. The aqua color is so perfect and the shine and reflection on the drops is so perfect.
