Hi all..

I made thise using Photoshop, I start with a small pencil sketch, scan to photoshop then start coloring using a Wacom Graphier pad.

I would b so pleased if u tell me ur comments and criticism, and about wt I should work on to improve my drawing.

I haven't studied art anywhere, I'm basicly depending on internet tutorials, so am I doing well so far ??

For the "sun boat" image, I used a real back ground image, then I painted the boat over it, I hope this is not cheating..!! ;)

I love monsters, those ones look great :)
It's not cheating to paint over a real image. It's called matte painting, and it's pretty popular

I haven't really "studied" either. But I can see you've had lots of practice and dedication, :thumbsup: to that. I hope you have fun with it, that's what counts

Definetly not bad for your first ones.

Your style is very soft, which may or may not be a bad thing depending on the final image. You might want to experiement with harder edges however and see what that would look like.

On the monsters pic, I wouldn't make my signature so ubtrustive, make it a bit smaller and don't cover up your main subject matter :)

The ship looks really nice, the photograph in the background blends pretty well with it. The hull looks a little grainy however.
