Some lousy drawing I did of a dark-elf-dude several months ago. It's nothing more than a very simple sketch done in painterClassic and openCanvas - I love those programs! biggrin.gif I already thought about doing a digital painting in Photoshop with this sketch as a reference but school is currently too time-consuming...

I like the proportions in regards to the upper- face (eyes, eyebrwos, that whole horizontal line looks right) and the shoulders.

thanks a lot! biggrin.gif

[quote=Fuzzy Knights]What Photoshop do u use - I have 7.0 and if I can learn to colour like that then help me![/quote]

I'm using version 7.0, too. I don't know what Photoshop CS2 is like because always buying a new version is simply too expensive kvright.gif

some advices if you want to start digital painting on the computer:

- Buy a pen tablet! It doesn't need too be the most expensive type of tablet at first (the one I have now is about medium-priced: Graphire3)
Don't try to paint things with the mouse, that's much too difficult

- read through a lot of tutorials for digital painting, there are some pretty good sites out there which offer a lot of help

- don't only focus on working on the computer and keep on practicing drawing with pencils.

- look at what other people do

- and don't give up! biggrin.gif

I can not really say much about how I actually color things because finding your own style is a very important part of the process of practicing wink.gif

I'd say around 100 euro/$ - eller omtrent 815 norske kroner, kanskje litt mer, er ikke helt sikkert wink.gif just noticed you're from norway, that's pretty cool because I'm half norwegian, too! Do you happen to know Fredrikstad or Hankø? That's where we usually spend our summer vacation
