Description Had an absolute blast on livestream today! Thanks again for everyone who came and watched!! Think there was a record turn out this time... at one point I counted 23 people.

This is Practel's cheetah! At the beginning of the day Practel got on and I asked for a request for an animal, Practel was the first to say cheetah. Later on I had everyone chose the colors of the cheetah from the eyes to nose and ears... from there I filled in the rest!!

Total time about 6 hours, photoshop.

I'll have this streaming on demand for a little while on my live stream. [link] Its a large file so I'm going to have to remove it at some point in the near future.

Thanks again for an awesome day!!

Brushes used:


Also side note this is large enough for a 1900x1200 desktop wallpaper!

I would have chosen the cheetah, too--like riding the wind! Another beautiful creation.

It was so much fun watching you create this as you go. You're magnificent. I have some questions for you. I'll PM you later tonight. I want to go into animation and am hoping for full scholarship to Kansas City Art Institute. I need info, bad. I know it's what I want to do, but I'm so naive on what the basics are and I'm struggling to better my style and realistic look. Hope you an help me out. Will PM you later. Thanks, you're wonderful!

Awesome!! ^_^ remember to always add and subtract when doing leaves. you can go back though and add details later if the leaves are close up.

Oh quick question, i never got the hang of those rock brushes either XD How exactly would i use such things XD

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

charfade In reply to DaftPunkPitbull [2011-01-08 16:40:30 +0000 UTC]

well they sort of work like stamps, on a top layer, use the brush and stamp where you want the rocks, what size they are etc with a dark color. Then on a layer underneath paint fill the area with a the brush tool a lighter gray color works. Then if you want add highlights and shadows to this layer.
