Description
Mmm... boring title... but full view would be nice.I'm trying out a trial of Painter XI.5! Tell me what you think, and if I should consider getting this someday instead of openCanvas. :3 I've given up with Photoshop -- too expensive for things I'll never use. :3
This didn't take long, but it was frustrating. There are so many different brushes in Painter!

It looks wonderful. Ive had same experiance with painter and its multitude of brushes..It took a while to get used to is all besides; better to have and not use, than to not have and need. Great use of highlights and shadow to create depth in the painting, I love it.

pretty! I love the way you did his eyes and hair! ^^ I've never used painter or OC but I think if I were to opt for one over the other it would be painter just becuase of all the beautiful works that seem to come from it. I'd have to say that it's really up to you though ^^

"No! oC all the way! Don't mess with that Painter shit!", is what I'd like to say, but having never EVER used Painter in my life, I have no right to say that! But of course with trying out new software, it'll take a while to get used to. So I'll say keep on trying it out!
As for this picture, it's not my favourite of yours, but there is a nice uniqueness about it that would definitely stand out from other Kite fanart. The colours you've used remind me of the work I used to do when I first started CGing.

SkeletalWings In reply to zanazac [2006-08-23 19:45:40 +0000 UTC]
xD Oh... that's great Zac... yeah, I used to think that oC is the best painting program ever... and I still kind of do, but there are so many objections. D: I'm gonna try out Painter again, see if I can do what I did in oC and more... and if not, then, eeeeh...
Not my most favorite either, but I really need to get used to Painter. I'll try and do better. Aha... your older stuff? I really liked your older stuff. :3

Ahh! This is a neat way to mimic the oil painting effect~
I heart that coloring.
Heart it to death.
Well, not to death, but you can see where this is going @_@
As for the expression...is it supposed to be uncertainty or is he having a really bad day?
Poor Kitey-witey >.<"

Hey, wow! Thanks!
I just got the Painter trial and I've been working with it and stuff~ seeing which program I should get: Painter or openCanvas. I love oC to death, but it seems Painter can do so much more with a bit more hassle. Once I get the hang of things the hassle would be gone, right? :3 But still... oC~ D: What do you think?
Uncertainty. :3 It was just a mug shot, nothing to look too deeply into... :3
Thank you again!

Tintinity In reply to SkeletalWings [2006-07-03 14:46:25 +0000 UTC]
I think oC is always the way to go when you're coloring the skin (amazing wonders the effects can do )
But I'd try new things to see which one works best.
Whatever happens, I'll forever stick to my beloved Photoshop CS2~

SkeletalWings In reply to Tintinity [2006-07-03 14:51:23 +0000 UTC]
Yeah I know, beautiful effects on the skin. :3 Maybe that's what I can do~ switch off after I do the skin~ oh I don't know! xD The thing is the two work the same in some ways, but different in others. Like no other program I have seen can produce such a glorious lineart as oC. :3
Hehe, another CS2 fan. :3 You're lucky~

OMG it's great! The colors are fantastic, and the lighting is so warm and inviting, just like a hearth fire. I also like the expression, so sad and thoughtful. If I were you I would have used a more yellow/orange color for the background.
Very nice.
