Hi all,

This is my first post so I'm going to say something original before I throw myself in...

I've been reading this incredibly great forum for several months and have found tons of good information and seen great art from you during that time.

I also had a tough wacom question in mind but I think I'm saving it to my next post

.

About the pic: Actually I don't really look like that very much. I used a little clay sculpture I made while ago as a reference. Made with Painter. Critique and comments would be very much appreciated.

Welcome guy!

Nice to see your 1st post.Be carefull becouse my father is a hunter and can shoot you.

Nice colors But i think you need more contrast.

Heh, looks great!

And I think the dentist is a good friend of yours no?
Very good to have some more painterly people here, hope to see some additional work of you soon.

P.S:I also had a tough wacom question in mind but I think I'm saving it to my next post
Don't conjure the sword of Damocles upon your head with asking a W**** Question, you made a pretty good start -why throw away your life just now

like that picture very much. the colors are great.
I thought I would be the ugliest boy around here.

vracky: Thank you.

Ramiranda: Well then, I'm not gonna come to Spain before my plastic surgery

More contrast.. Ok, thanks. My monitor gamma must be little adrift or then it's just me.

Nex: heh, you should see the burr set the local dentist has in reserve for me. Good dental hygiene always shows. I'm definitely going to post more, I hope.

silber: Thanks. Next time then.

nil900: Thx. But.. my mommy always said that I'm so handsome boy *sigh*

Hi, Rhomb! (Terve kaveri..)

Hehe.. is this your self-portrait? Really? Hmm.. this is really nice though I don't personally like about wacky brushes.. *grin* They look a bit chaotic or something. Still I like your style. This is cool!

Uh.. and welcome to the forum, of course!

Terve vaan, Mutsi

and thanks for commenting.

Well, I just love the painter brushes, you can use "less wacky" brushes in it too though. This is mostly done with "round camel hair" brush with different opacity levels and feature sizes.

I replaced the pic. Hope it has has a little more contrast now.

I'm glad you like it Cos. I remember seeing some nice ink and pencil sketches from you last week.

Okay, I'm letting this one sink into oblivion now.
