his left hand, it needs shaping a bit..
and yes, painting in Photoshop takes a long time to get good at..
Did you use a tablet or mouse? |

Hey Bump.
Using black to shade colors will make things look smudgy. Learning to control your brush strokes to clearly define form takes practice, so does learning to paint with photoshop. It looks like you have an understanding of light and shadow and where to put them. Try experimenting with reflected light and see if that doesn't help breath a little more life into the shapes.
I can't tell which leg (or horn)is closer to me. Maybe if you make one darker (or the other one lighter) you'll get more depth in the picture.
So when is Satanmas anyway? Do you get stuff for being naughty? |

Thank you very much! thats the kind of feedback I'm looking for.
I actually tried to make one horn and one leg darker but because I didn't have any defined lightsource and no background to suport it looked strage, but I'll definitively aply depth to future pictures
