well I drew this first with adobe illustrator then tranferred it to photoshop to simplify matters :XD:

digital drawing's getting me down :inno: ... it's like learning how to draw all over again.
I'mma try using this as a base and improving it as I go... will post the progress if any...:bored:

lol..okayy..so what exactly is that?

keep on practicing though..and believe me with practice everything will become so much easier. A year ago I used to find illustrator frustrating and now I think it's the easiest and most amazing graphics program in the world. :p

how intriguing... well you two keep guessing the unguessable until I try to clarify your visions, god help.

nabs: that is miraculously the sun and a couple of mountains...

(sigh)... lol...
that's it... I'm digging the very tutorials of this program.

You can find here some Excellent illustrator tutorials tee:

Following some of them will help you get used to the various illustrator tools till you find your own path once u're set.

That's really nice. I love what u did with the water (It is water, la? lol) there, It has a unique and an interesting look. Esp. its colour, so .. pure, clean and light! Love how the flowers stand out and the leaves. Good work :cute:
Keep it up!

3T - i like the way you progress with AI, and i encourage you to go with it all the way... try to color your work in AI instead of PS and check it out. it really has a good choice and nice stuff ;)

the sunsent would've been better if the lower part was out of it... thats my point of view!

over all... great work :)

TripleTee
09-10-06, 01:54 PM
nosa: I knoww...hmmmm... I guess I should change the way I color them.

Moomad: yeah I'll try out coloring in AI this time.... it'll just take time to get familiar with the tools there...

however, thanx you 2... I'll try again

I liked the sketch, well sketched, heh. The lines and the stars, though, I think the upper lip could've been a bit better and i'm not with the coloured one. Well done! :)
I liked the blue there in the sunset one.
