I upgraded from a wacom pen partner to an Intuous 2 and wow what diference! really worth the money.

PSCS2 35 minutes, was hard to cram all that in to 35 minutes, even with the extra 5 minutes. I may go back and more to this i like the concept. It is supposed to be some one looking at a treasure map ....

Hey Guys.


Ransom - Thar be blue in them thar hills! ... I like the lighting and feel you've stared

DreamMaster - nice! you've got the reflected lighting and everything...

embryotic - another good un. i like the textures on her face - although i feel like you could have used them more sparingly. Oh and nice trick with the drop shadow on the ornments on her hair - seems like a quick way to get them to 'sit'.

Robertt - cool! Love the colours. Love the depth. i feel like the Blue dot is in a funny place in the composition...


Here's my attempt: No crazy story., just something that happens all too often - painting in your best clothes and getting paint on them.

PS - 25mins

"the blue dot" - nice name for a spaceship, so here it is, landed on a planet, and two passengers are looking around.

PhotoshopCS, 40 min, it was difficult to choose overall tone of image for me, so skipped timelimit a bit.

wow time flies.
I started this one way back when it was posted. My first thought was "The Blue Dot" - a superhero that never really made it.

this is my first take -25 min in photoshop.

http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/6208/bluedot25minjj9.jpg

And then before I could get around to finishing I went and saw 300 - amazing stuff! So when I cam back to this sketch I still had the Spartans on my mind and went in another direction.

It really has nothing to do with the topic at all but I thought I would post it anyway.

round about 4 hours into it in PS

I should have reworked the composition but it was a good rendering exercise for me!
