Description
Sketched with pencil on heavy sketch paper. Painted using Photoshop 5.5 and a Wacom Graphire 4 tablet.I sketched Tala, our shepherd, when she was asleep next to me on the couch at my fiance's parents' house. She's very much my baby girl, even if she's the world's largest stinkpup.

I envy your coloring skill, I am still struggling with photoshop coloring. You also did an amazing job on the dog's shape.

Thanks. I sketched her from life. She was asleep next to me... only way she'll ever hold still long enough. ^_^
Digital coloring is difficult to learn, but just keep practicing at it and you'll improve pretty quickly. What worked for me was switching back and forth between digital and traditional (colored pencils) media. Learning concepts with one helped me with the other. Still learning on both though!

Lol, funny bout the dog. Yeah I will keep practicing. I was going to use this one tutorial, but as soon as it got to making a layer mask, I had no idea what to do with it.

I dunno... how much does she weigh? I think I may have a stinkpup in the running, lol. :3
This is really great. Your stuff HAS started to really dramatically improve since the tablet. Sometimes there's so much to be said for just having the right tool!
