Have you decided to make Painter your digital weapon of choice? No Photoshop for jr?

Her left eye seems to be a bit off, but otherwise that's just excellent job.

I'm still relatively newbie to the digital painting (been a wacomist since March) and I've been pondering if I should try out Painter, I like PS 5.5 very much but I'd really like to give another proggies a chance. Painter classic, which came with Wacom, was pretty handy but it's not working properly on my system for some unknown reason...

thanks guys for the comments,
luna: i'm still photoshop crazy, i just wanted to try out painter
prox: i shrunk it for ya, but the image quality has suffered! arg.
rip: yeah i noticed the eye problem too, i'll have to fix it,
tyron: i used the oil pastel and some other pastels, and alittle bit of the round oil brush. i did it from scratch on the computer the same way i would do it on real canvas.

I like the use of colour, face looks really well drawn too. No crits.

only the lack of simatry in the eyes and details in the ear prevent it from being so great. still it is marvelous to me. well done. great colors
