This is very cool Dave. I would like to enter this contest but I do not understand how to do the textures. Or, do you just draw textures, or do you import them from somewhere.....Just me, confused again.

QTgillie- The applets aren't set up in a way for you to import textures from anywhere, so you'll have to draw them yourself. What davincipoppalag did here was draw the sky as if it was wood, the sea as if it was made of bricks, etc. If you have any questions about it go ahead and ask.

Brick water must be hard on the rudder. Cute idea & nice draw.

Wow now that's some molten hot a**ed lava! love the glow to it! nice work Wiz, How about a tad of highlights on the mountain? I think it could use a few, like what you did on the water, just a touch to make the mountain appear a little more 3d would really set this one off! I really love this one great job!

Oh My Gosh Wizz...this is really cool..I love the detail..Good pic and well done...:)

Wizzard (Mar 27, 2008)

Well, I can't be around losse women because Mrs. wizzard would surely cut my ard off. But I do love the casino. And yes I have been on two of these river boats, One on the Ohio river and the other in New Orleans, on the MISSISSIPPI River. It was very much fun.

Aakyra (Mar 27, 2008)

Excellent job. I love all the different textures.

Xina54 (Mar 26, 2008)

Hey Starz - the sheen on the gold satin is just TOO real! the fringing, the bell, the embroidery on the face - all amazing.

KuteDymples (Mar 28, 2008)

Terry......I can't believe I missed commenting on this. I have looked at it so many times and I guess I was so engrossed in all of the detailing I thought I had commented. I love the whole draw, but my favorite part about it is the one piece of cording that comes down from the bell. I can't quit staring at it. It looks like you could reach right out and take it from the picture, seeing the side of it and the perfect details you have put into it. Wow! Masterpiece is quite the understatement for this. Mardi gras memorabilia has always taken me aback, and this would be a perfect addtion to all that I already have.

This parrot was inspired from a photo by JustinBlackStudios who was kind enough to let me use his wonderful photo of this beautiful bird. I will put his link later. But need to say to him thanks so very much! http://justinblackphotos.deviantart.com/art/Elegance-32547187

Uh, this is gorgeous, those feathers are so bright and colorful.

LOL all the ones I'm finding that I want to comment on turn out to be yours. Keep it coming. You have some really great art on here.

Cordelia_Pink (Mar 3, 2008)

I just noticed your icon pic and was curious to see what it looked like upclose. Cool! I love how vivid the colors are in this picture, it makes it so life-like. I've seen your other drawings of birds and I think this one is by far the best one. I don't think I could have done this in 20 hours, great job girl!

That's an really awesome drawing!!!
