Title: Doom Funnel
Name: Saber Alexander McConnell
Country: USA
Software: Photoshop
A ropey tornado blasts across flatlands. It's probably one of my better digital pictures and I must have looked at a million tornado pictures and video clips to get an idea of how they moved. The dust cloud at the bottom was actually the most difficult.

Here you are!
Welcome back to CG Society, Saber!
Can't tell you anything specific about tornadoes, sorry it is a kind of subject I never tried, but I'm a great fan of the 'reference is good' school of thought, so, in my opinion, you are on the right track: paint a subject you like and study it throughly one aspect at a time.
...at some point you'll likely feel more or less sick at the thought of painting one more tornado pic, don't give in to the feeling, that's when you are on th cusp, just before things start to fall in the right place (boy, don't I know!).

Oh jeez...if I had just come here and actually looked, I would have recognized your avatar picture. Thanks for taking the time to comment...I appreciate it. I am still trying to figure everything out as I said.

Don't worry, Saber! It takes time to learn the quirks of the place. :)
BTW if you don't visit a thread after you get a 'comment' e-mail you won't be notified of later comments.
