Description It took me 3 days to do this... 3 days with a whole lot of interruptions. I saw toounit was having a contest and I loveee his work! XD I just had to enter!!!!
*wonders what prizes there are...* XD I hope i win something nifty like a free drawing or what not. that would be so cool โ™ฅ
Here's hope to winning!

How I made the image:
I figured out this really nifty way of coloring on Photoshop. It's been taking me literally "forever" to do it though... approxmately almost a year.....
Though I just realized it a few months ago XD

I love to use the airspray airbrush. the one that is 9 13 and 19 after the soft brushes on the default brushes in Photoshop. It just gives it that halfway blend look like real paint but makes it almost look like a marker instead or can also imitate paint if Used heavily. I discovered it while working a few commissions.

I feel a bit silly.. most of the great artists would already know about it from the get go because they take time to explore a program while me. XD i just use whatever cause i'm to lazy . lol.

I have Photoshop CS2. Lover of photoshop! ( ^-^)b

I'm hoping I can convince my husband to buy me corelpainter XI or whatever new version they have by x-mas with the 6D tablet Pen and Airbrush Pen to boot ahahahah... (fantasizes....)

oops... i didn't notice that drool falling out of my mouth.
*hastily wipes with sleeve*

Thanks so much for the compliments!

If anyone knows great Coloring tips! I would love to hear them.

How do you know all great artists know photoshop from the get-go? I think they all learn the same as you, cuz you never know what something does until you *really* do it, not just play around with it. Anyway, nice work. And maybe I'll try those brushes you found, although I need a pressure sensitive pen (I have OG Graphire 2)
