Artist's Comments

I'm going to focus alot on painting now, kind of like how I did before doing 1 painting every day. The goal will be to just paint, experiment and have fun.

I don't know for sure. About 3 hours if you count out the 1 hour I spent trying to fix a problem I had with erasing on layers.

Wow nice work overall! This would take me like a month ><

Not if you used the same technique I used.
:iconmarkmoonedge:
Oh you perked my interests! Would it be too much to ask the methods of your techniques?

For that image I basically used the tools explained in this DVD. It's hard to go over it all, but if you'd get hold of this DVD I'm sure you could make sense of it.

But I can give a general tip if you can't get hold of it. You basically paint your shadows first. Have everything dark, still having the color you want and so on, but really dark. Then in painter you duplicate the canvas and apply a soft light over it all with the glowbrush and then erase all the places where you didn't want it to be and the you color pick inside the light to redistribute it where it should be / detail it out. I guess you could try and do the same in Photoshop with a color dodge layer and a low opacity soft airbrush, but I haven't tried it.

Interesting, I'll give it a shot with my next work. Thanks so much for the tip!
