I did two old school matte paintings back in '86 so let me see if I can explain how it was done then without thoroughly confusing everyone...

One of the shots the studio wanted was of our heroine ...

Along with the above comments and compliments I would like to add my 2 cents. Throughout the snow in the center of the image your use of the clone/rubber stamp tool is what jumped out at me. I would k ...

I began to read this thread and thought this would be a good question for Pat and lookie there. Glad to see he still lurks...

Hey Phillip/eyewoo,

My company bills my time at $85 per hour. Of cou ...

Nice work!

The scan is a bit dark though. I'm sure you used a full palette so maybe bumping up the contrast to help it pop more? Then again it could be my monitor...

Once again, nice job. Watts Atel ...

O.k., eyewoo. I've figured it out. Your subconscious is in high gear.

This is you!

You're the Good Guy Mystic Artist who is fending off the Bad Guy Ambassador Art Director and his minions who have i ...

Claire?

I agree with Sumaleth and would add that if you darkened the background considerably, lessened the lighting in the back of the figure and popped the highlights more as you worked your way forward woul ...

Sorry if anyone was inundated with a yitload of pop-ups when I first posted this. Host problems for the moment...

Sorry, no blood here. Didn't know if it was appropriate to post in the figure drawing thread because it's digital. Will post a charcoal study there tomorrow...

As far as your contrast question I would say "no". Too much light and focus on areas that don't need it. I say this because I understand your dilema 'cause this is an issue I struggle with as well. Th ...

Not a comment on Star Wars, but the first thing that came to mind when reading your post was how it is the same with the idiot/flame threads that occur around here...

A bandwagon, good or bad, is fun ...

The hair growing on my face doesn't worry me as much as how it seems to have stopped growing on my head...

Nice to see you still lurk, Blitz. If I'm not mistaken you're the football player? Have you done many of these elfin/fairyesque images before? I don't recall. My apologies...

I'm assuming you're look ...

*blubbers through his tears*

F*** me nekkid. How do you do it? You've been asked this before and I might have been one of those that did; PhotoShop? Painter? Initial canvas size?
I'm still in the pr ...

I don't enjoy getting involved in these types of discussions because of the all around ugliness involved. I've known the feeling of being wrongly accused, but know the feeling of being busted as well. ...

Thanks, waylon.

I've gotten a lot of reference mileage out of the abandoned plant series you posted a year or so ago and I'm sure I'll get good mileage with these as well.

Much appreciated!

Once again, a nice piece with nice color choices. I agree with the finger issue, but the nose doesn't bother me much (no offense Pat, I respect your opinion on many levels). A comment would be to add ...

Nice piece. I like how my eye danced around the subtle rhythms throughout. Maybe popping the highlight of the eye a bit more?

My 2 cents. Works fine without. Nice color choices too.

Watercolors are ...

Mine would occasionally do similar odd things and per suggestions here, the apparent culprit was my tablets close proximity to the monitor. I now use it on my lap (not much free desk space) and it wor ...

Greetings all.

This is a piece I've been toying with and I'm at that point where I could use some advice. Who doesn't need to seek help? I still plan on working out the shadows and highlights a bit m ...

Not sure if I fall in the 'decent' catagory, but I remember you and the other old lurkers that have recently posted with fond memories...

Nice to know you still lurk occasionally. I'm bad about lurkin' your Drawin' Board. Is that still around? I'll go find out...

As far as C&C are concerned, No critiques.

Nice work and I agree with said comments.

My two cents, if they're worth anything, would be to tighten up the skirt a bit? You have great rhythym and fluid motion working throughout and I thin ...

That is an excellent observation Soulfuct and that is what this forum is all about. We can get so wrapped up into our own work that we sometimes lose up from down. A whack to the side of the head with ...
