Originally I did this picture as a sketch for an art class, then it made it onto scratchboard, but I really wanted to do it in colour so here it is :) Its not as good as it could be, but if I mess with it anymore, I'll probably screw it up...

Thank you everybody! This was done by playing around with the settings. I even worked on it in greyscale for a bit. I saw what looked like a pinkish dress and finished it from there. I wish I could do things like this on canvas. Maybe blindfolded?

Why do you wish you could with your talent?

jekyll (Mar 1, 2010)

I guess what I should have said, Suntan, is that I wish I had the inclination to do such work on canvas. It's one thing to push pixels around to form a drawing like this, but I'm afraid in a paint medium I'd overwork it and think too much about it. ( I'd never know if I was finished or not) I'm not sure I understand this kind of art. I enjoy it when it's done by others but I just don't feel any attachment to my own.

Get blindfolded then and just go with it. If nothing else, it would be fun. ;p

zoom in once, so pretty that hint of pink

Flubbles (Feb 28, 2010)

Thank's, i've got few little details to add and change but it's 99% done.

The light in the upper left corner is gorgeous, this has turned out beautifully.

Teapot: he's a type of puffer fish, from what I can remember when I took this shot :) and thank you

looks good, the gray bar gives it more of an abstract feeling. I like it. :)

vlad.the.hamster (Mar 1, 2010)

Ooh, nice! lovely colors. :) I think the other background could've worked, but this is nice, too.

I like both vrs 3 & 5. They both have a very unique look about them. But, I'm partial to vrs 3 personally =)

Wow, this is bad.

Ew. Maybe it'll look good as a profile picture on here, but other than that, wow, I don't like it. I wanted to try out a different applet for once.

chibi is fun to play with

Miss_DJ (Mar 1, 2010)

I like it

elly (Mar 1, 2010)

Chibi ROCKS! I like the silhouette design but the background could use a little blending maybe. Did you use multi layers? The colors are great!

vlad.the.hamster (Mar 1, 2010)

Chibi is fun but I don't like actually using it for anything serious... idk, just me. :P

Tweet!

I dont mind the dodge and burn in this pic, i think she used them well without over doing it.

elly (Feb 26, 2010)

I tend to use dodge and burn in about every draw I do somewhere or another...can we say obsession?? lol! I do overuse them and I'm trying to tone it down a bit...I'm only in my 2nd step of the 12 step program for dodge and burn addicts =) LOL! Thx for the comments =)

Zero_Lemons (Feb 26, 2010)

I just want to hold it in my hands, it's so cute! I really love the details of the feathers. I think your use of dodge and burn is effective for this as a whole :)

Lovely little bird! He looks nice and healthy!:))
