That's a doodle? 
The fire looks awesome. How did you do that?

Used a rough artistic brush on 20% opacity and started with red and orange tints for a rough definition, then used white on 30% for the hot centre. Then added some blue and yellow for the gas fire look. Goes rather well after 2-3 hrs of practise

Your welcome. Uhhm I wondered do you have any tips on how to make scans look good? The scans of your pencil artwork look really beautiful. Maybe my scanner just sucks.
The tablet I use is called Bamboo Fun Touch & Pen. I tried to get used to but lately I lack the time.

Well I think just about any scanner except the pro stuff sucks. I use a HP Scanjet G3010, which I bought just because it was 50% off. I scan at the highest possible resolution, than I load the image in Photoshop or GIMP and convert it to B&W to remove coloring spots, up the contrast a little, and add my autograph. It's simple enough and works because except my large pastels I don't use any colouring. Dont know any tricks to scan those yet, though
Well, practise makes perfect

(sorry it took me like forever to reply to this)
Hmm. Well I have just found out that it's not my scanner that scans so bad... it's infact Photoshop that destroys high resolution scans. For some odd reason my copy of Photoshop stopped being able to produce high resolution pictures for me...
Oh I hope I'll learn it one day. School leaves me too little time to learn it now though. Thank you a lot for your many advices.

No problem
Hey, if it may be a little comfort... if you think you've got little time now, once you're a "grown up" you find you'll have no time left at all
But don't fret though. You'll learn. If you want to bad enough. Every time I have a moment to sit down and practice my craft I find my skill to be improved
Cheers, and good luck!
