Hey guys,

Recently i've been busy with digital painting. So actual paintings, with no lineart, and it's really fun to do! Of course you have some guidelines at the start with lineart but that is just necessary. The best feeling is when you make the lineart disappear and suddenly it looks really good

Here are some of my recent paintings!

 

As you can see there is still a lot of work to do, but practice makes perfect and I learn new tricks and skills every time I paint a new one.
I use a WACOM Tablet with a digital pen to do this and I use Photoshop CS4, yeah I know there are newer versions but my laptop can't run them. So i'll just try to make the best of my current version. Anything's possible right, it just takes a little longer!

It's fun though, to see yourself improve over time, just take a look at my first few digital drawings and look at how they improved over time.

 

Here you can see like a timeline of my improvement and confidence with the tablet. It started out with black and white, with shaky lines and no color. But the more I got confident with the tools in photoshop and by watching a load of tutorials (!) I have improved over time. Of course there is so much more to learn, but I take it step by step
