bean-tor Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 http://i.imgur.com/Tbb5ZxS.png Hello, friends! :hi: The thread title says pictures, so hopefully my version of a selfie is permissible! In my professional practice, I'm much more comfortable with actual paint and brushes...but I thought I'd attempt something less doodle-like in the digital realm for once. Kinda makes me want to splurge on nice software someday! Did you do this on your PC? If so, well done! Yes, I did :) Thank you very much, Turbine! :cheers: Gosh I wouldn't know how to even start doing something like that. Oh I believe that you could do it! :cheerleader: In my studio, I'm used to working by seeing my support (canvas, etc.) and hand/tool in the same place...one of the biggest adjustments for me was staring at my monitor while my hand controlled the stylus out of sight on the drawing tablet. Otherwise I used a rather similar process of forming the image :) I think I'd have a lot more fun with more robust software, though! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Bean Great drawing :) I download quite a lot of free open source software and one programming I've got that you might be interested in is called Krita. It's a lot like Photoshop but with the photo editing tools taken out so it's really more just for illustrating and drawing. It looks and feels very professional and the only problem is that it can be a quite slow at times. However for the price - or should i say lack of - it's great :) Just somerhing you may want to check out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
