I'm a really big fan of warm images.

Originally this was just a sketch for my Sketch-a-Day (hence why the lines are sketchy and rough), but I felt like experimenting with painting styles and color. I still don't know how tree shadows work though. ~1hr30min.

Beautifully done.

That said, did anyone else notice that the thumbnail for this image on the mainpage looks like a furry giving birth to a dark turquoise baby?

I think I'm broken. o.O

Sorta reminds me of Asuna in the 2nd part of SAO.

Ffffff I love this splotchy-paintey style so much. Experimenting never gives me these type of results. @___@

@Pavchka I know what you mean. I'd never made a custom brush in SAI and I notice that while you can change a lot of settings it's still pretty limited in getting the effect you want. ;_; Oh well, you do what you can I guess.

@Rationale It has been a weak point of mine. Especially in perspective, I normally get the necks off.

Besides this image is a whole bucketfull of SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAFT so it was tough.

Thanks! I was really hoping for that feel! It was a custom brush I made in SAI, essentially a hard square brush with no size change and blending capabilities turned on. I've been meaning to practice a more painterly feel and learn about colors, and I felt this brush was perfect to try with.[/quote]

Nice! I've been trying to do some watercolour colouring in SAI but I'm having troubled with all the brushes being either round or oddly shaped. Importing custom brushes into SAI isn't easy.

[quote=Pavchka]I think that's skin, and the grey parts after that are stockings or boots.

This picture has a wonderful, peaceful feel to it. Which brush did you use?[/quote]

I wish I could sit down on a bench right now and enjoy the sun. Sadly its 7 degrees Fahrenheit with a windchill below zero. Walking to class is not going to be fun =/.

Feels like watercolour mixed with actual digital painting. Good job.
