Thanks for taking the time. I do understand as artist we all have our own vision. Also that we become so close with a piece we’re working on that we don’t see things that others do. Knowing this I also feel as artist we are always learning. Anyone that feels they are beyond that is missing out on there full potential. I personally did not want to have it look like he was running into the wind (The t-shirt would then cling more to his torso). I don’t see it as a flaw, just a choice.

I see a lot of wips here that I wouldn’t even know how to start with a critique. The fact that you do I find amazing. I always assumed you have a vested interest in this website. If not
they should give you a cut of the action because you have put a lot into these wips.

This piece came out very, very good!

I went for it and got the 24HD - the touch features honestly looked like too little for the extra $1000. I LOVE this HD, it’s an amazing piece of technology, and it’s already changed how I work for the better! I don’t regret a penny of the purchase, I should have done this a while ago, lol. The story of UPS trying to deliver it is a story in itself, the driver was a bit intimidated by the box, they don’t ship it flat anymore, the box is huge.

One thing, if you could, maybe on your next piece, is to show how you do the flesh tones, step by step. You have a very strong technique that I think a lot of readers here could benefit from seeing how it’s done?

Also, how about a look at your brushes? I’m redoing my brushes on the HD, my old ones don’t work as well, now that I have so much more to work with. :slight_smile: I’ve been thinking a stickied thread on brushes would be a good idea anyway.

Thanks Guys.

I need to really check out the HD. Flesh tones I’m still trying to figure out, in fact color in general. I have guidelines I try and follow but sometimes those go right out the window. The only big one is stay away from the black slider as a color darkener. Unless you have a black background
even then.

Ha… brushes, I did a screen capture for my facebook the other day. A lot of them are more for graphic projects. I used the flat watercolor on the Runner.

FYI… thanks Lunatigue now all I see is haphazard folds in a T-shirt with to hard of an edge lighting.
