Well I started reading a book... Very wierd considering it's the first time I've ever read a book on my own free will (besides the Goosebump series). Anyway It is "The Divine Comdey" by Dante (don't wanna find the book to spell last name). I know this pic isn't an accurate telling of the books imagery, but hey it's my pic! anyway here is what i saw when they get to the first circle of hell(don't ask why)...
EDIT: btw this is a cincept for a full painting i want to do

| If you're looking for tips on the composition, I think the pier/jetty/boat-platform-or-whatever-you-call-it-in-the-US and the skiff should be moved a little more to the right so that they both sit more in the middle. |

Well i did use ps6. I used paintbrush tool at around 5-20% opacity.
Btw that pic is a little compressed too much and the brush edge is a lot harder than that. Damn jpg files...
Thanks
