Can someone walk me through drawing human hair? All the tutorials I've found are for photoshop. (obviously I don't have it!) So can someone teach me how to draw realistic human hair? I tend to make it look 'stringy' or 'cartoony'.

blech... what's that line my mother taught me years ago "sticks and stones can break my bones but names will never hurt me" :P oh and then we have the updated version a la my stepmother who just comes out and warns me that one day I won't have any anymore....... now did I need to know that before my time and from HER?

Sometimes smoking "pot" is good for you.......I heard that Patrick Swayze is allowed to smoke pot for medicinal purposes. He has pancreatic cancer, and he's been doing better since his doctor has prescribed medicinal pot for him to smoke. He smokes a joint a day. I really like Patrick Swayze, and I hope he can be completely cured of his cancer. By the way......This is a really cool draw....I like it!! :)

I'd love to have a lava lamp like that! lol Really awesome, those colours rock

Bubblicious (Aug 14, 2009)

You know what this reminds me of? That one vial/potion thingy in Hercules, where Hades was trying to steal his powers away from him so Hercules would die. Only it was pink.

Yes, loving it! I would kill for that lamp, seriously.

elly (Aug 15, 2009)

I would LOVE a lamp like this!!! (Don't be surprised if you see these in the store come Halloween!) VERY cool concept!!

firecracker (Aug 16, 2009)

I keep coming back to look at this......I know that I would definitely buy a lava lamp like this......I love it!! It's so cool and eerie and very mesmerizing!! I want one!! :D

Maybe he is looking into one of those "crazy" kind of mirrors that you see at carnivals, that distort your image...."LOL"!! :D

"Spirit Horse"

firecracker (Aug 12, 2009)

My fantasy horse.....I'm posting this as finished.....I might do some more "touch up" work to him later.....but I'm pretty much satisfied with this horse for now. He started out as a black stallion.....but "morphed" into a "Paint" stallion....."LOL"!!

Hi "xsi"......Thank you very much for your nice comment.....I appreciate it very much. I'm glad you like the "pic". I don't mind if you put this on your desktop.....that's a nice compliment that you think the pic is good enough to use as your desktop......"thanks"! I have already put it on my desktop. I love horses too.....and "Native American" culture. :)

You're waaay too good to be in intermediate.
You have some serious skill.

Keep it up.

firecracker (Sep 26, 2009)

Thanks "druyamiko"....for your nice comment....I really appreciate it......but I don't think I'm at the "advanced" level yet.....I have a lot to learn about drawing and blending, and shading, etc. I only use the advance board when I need a bigger space to draw in. But, I really appreciate your nice comment.....it gives me the encouragement to keep on drawing. Thank you very much.....:)
