Description
[Fullview please!]xD Just take a guess.
The full thing has finally been completed! (At least to my liking xD )
It actually didn't take as long as I had previously thought to add hair. It only took about two or three days.
I'm really super proud of myself for finishing this piece, as it's completely, 100% digital. No sketches or scanning, it was started in Photoshop, and it ended in Photoshop. It's also the most recent realistic-type piece of art I've done in quite a while.
[Edit: Saturated and darkened this one, too. I'm kinda' sad that I had to. Again, 'Argh! sucky monitor! D< ]
Thanks so much for taking some time to view my work!

And then I finished it.

Haha, thanks! ^^
Digital isn't all that hard once you get the hang of it.
And using a tablet can sometimes be easier than any real-life media. It's super easy to fix mistakes!

i just cant get the feel for digital maybe
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, it's all what you get used to...
And the tablet makes it SO much easier.
Like you wouldn't believe. xD

XDDD Uh...very carefully?
^^ Nah, I actually took a look at Linda Bergkvist's (Enayla's) tutorials on painting in Photoshop. She makes it look really easy.
Her website is here: [link]

Wow, that is amazing! Great job! I wish I had photoshop so bad!

^^ Thanks so much! I actually didn't buy Photoshop. 600$ plus is really not doable with my parents' wages. I just got it from a friend. We'll just say she's... rather skilled with computers. ;D

Your welcome!
I know..I'd never be able to afford it! Even during Chirstmas time! I've actually downloaded all the free trials I could possible download, but they only lasted for 30 to 60 days.
And how is your family doing?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Same here! The trials always ended right when I got really into something!
The family's doing great! My dad's actually going back to school for a year! ^^
How's yours? <3

Ugg I know! Its very annoying, I must say!
Aww thats good! I'm happy to hear that!
They're doing fine, my Mom is busy like always, and my brother is out of college and working for my Mom, and my sister is still in college, but almost done!
Oh, and I'm homeschooled 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You can say that again!
Homeschooled? That sounds fun! ^^
Since when?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep! It is, but its boring. And I'm cooped up in the house literally 24/7!
I just started this year, actually.
My first year of high school was a ... terrible expierence. But thats okay
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I can imagine. Just being stuck inside for three days during those snowdays drove me absolutely INSANE. I don't know what I'd do without being able to go anywhere.
Aww, sorry to hear that!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah
Thank yoo, Its okay!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
xD I can imagine. You can actually get up and go to the bathroom without having to write out a pass and eat lunch when you're hungry...blah blah blah. xD
So how do you do it? Is it like an online course or something?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahah true. And you can sleep in.
Yes it is an online course. I have 4 main classes, (math, science, english, history) and nothing else. It kinda sucks because I miss choir, and art :/
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
xD Sleeping in would be nice for a change. -_-
Yeah, Band and Art class would be sorely missed. Especially all the different things like languages and sewing classes.
I guess it has a lot of pros and cons, doesn't it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Very true,
Well, I go to singing lessons and still do art here.
It really does have its good side and bad side!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
^^
I guess that does work! And you'd have a lot of time to practice the things you like to do the most, like photography. xD
It doesn't sound too bad.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Extremely!
I'd almost like to try it out! xD

HOLYBUTTNUTS! thats amazing melly! *jealous* you need to teach me photoshop!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
xD Buttnuts! That's just about one of the funniest things I've ever heard!
Thanks! <3333
Photoshop is really easy once you get the hang of it!
