The reason your giving aint good enough for me you got the talent to do your own stuff...if you can imitate brom and do this well...you can grab a couple of picture of women on the net and paint her the way you imagine it and not Brom ex:the clothing shed be wearing or the pose anything you fantasize you put on paper or on your sceeen in this case so common dont give off lame excuse like and create eveyone knows you got the talent!

Dedmann!

Ok. Thanks for reply and for giving me the force to TRY to make something of mine.

The reason I said that is beacuse I always have made drawings (black and white) and now I'd like to learn the use of colour... but I can't imagine anything and PAINT it... (I can draw it, but not paint) I'd like to be able to get the hues of something in my mind and then put them in my painting. If you know what is the way to get there...

Thanks again for your comments.

start with something really simple, like an apple. just play around with color and light. Work small and fast, do a mountain of thumbnails. Start basic and just keep practicing.

Nice work there :thumbsup:
Blackarts is right, the best way to learn the use of color is painting without lines, just big strokes of color. And take your references from real life (photos) better than other artist´s work, you´ll learn the real laws of lighting and avoid copyrights problems! ;)
I think the best way to work with colors is getting a wacom, you can experiment with all the colors of the universe, different techniques..., it´s cheaper (no canvas, brushes, markers, pencils, sketchbooks, oils, easel) and you wont get your hands dirty.

Hey he visto en tu pagina que dejaste de estudiar arquitectura en el segundo año porque te gustaba mas la infografia... yo tambien estoy en la ETSAM (quinto curso), y tengo las mismas ideas que tu, pero decidi acabar la carrera por si el tema 3d no salia bien. Conozco a varias personas que han hecho el cice como tu, lo bueno de ese curso son las amistades y enchufes que puedes conseguir (Martinez Lara) para entrar en el mundillo 3d, ademas de enseñarte a usar los programas 3d.

Suerte y un saludo!

Ok thanks for your help. Painting real life should be nice... I usually don't copy another artist nor real life. Because of that my tecnic is so poor. I'll post here my first painting...:) Of course, I already have a wacom...and I love it.

I'm posting now one of my recent works done in photoshop7. Well, the original drawing is made with a pencil and then scanned it. Imported it to photoshop and painted it there. Something quickly.

One question... Which program do you use for digital paintings? I have some trubble to blend colours (make gradients softly as in real life paintings) in photoshop. Painter7 does it ok. I want your opinion...

Hey Pancreas, no sabía que la gente se molestaba en visitar mi página... (Está en construcción desde abril y no la he terminado porque pensé que nadie la visitaba...) En fin, la arquitectura me defraudó bastante... Y el ambiente de la escuela no iba conmigo. Decidí aventurarme en esto y no me arrepiento para nada.
El CICE esta bien, mas o menos, pero no te creas que sales de alli con trabajo... Pasan bastante del tema. Terminas y ahi te quedas tu solo para apañartelas. No es lo que parece.
Haces bien en terminar la carrera ahora que no te queda nada... Asi que mucha suerte y no te desanimes (por si acaso...).

Sorry for the comments in spanish and thanks.

And here is the original made with sanguine pencil. No references at all.

Visit my 3d thread and say something... If you want.
