Description What a delightfully unimaginative title, I thought it sounded more appropriate than "The Wood of the Oversized Squirrels" though.


I had great help from =Elandria 's stock photo for the girl and the rest is history.

I can't paint leaves, so this will have to do until I get better at it.



Photoshop Elements, about 4 days work.

I kinda like how the leaves are done. It makes you pay more attention to other details.

thanks I love hair designs, I obsessively collect photos of cool hair that I find on the internet. Not a design major though,no, pathology major.

This is absolutely stunning! If you use a tablet what brush preset do you use to color like this?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

acidlullaby In reply to LifeIsHard [2008-01-02 20:09:16 +0000 UTC]

yup I used a tablet, the brushes where mostly standard hardedged round ones and some speckled ones and a bunch I made myself from sakura blossom patterns (for the grassy bit near the bottom)

LifeIsHard In reply to acidlullaby [2008-01-02 20:35:46 +0000 UTC]

Wow!! I usually use soft brushes.

acidlullaby In reply to LifeIsHard [2008-01-02 20:40:02 +0000 UTC]

I find soft brushes a little hard to control as the value of saturation at the edges is usually different to what I want

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

LifeIsHard In reply to acidlullaby [2008-01-02 20:44:19 +0000 UTC]

True, true. Sometimes the edges turn out lighter than the middle part of what I'm coloring.
