Anglo-Saxons are calling my attention lately, maybe because I've been studying them at schoolYeah, it must be so!
Medieval Tibetan set:
Good blue in the eyes and spacey background Bella
Lots of settlements Kyriakos. Cool.
This isn't a high res because I screwed up, but it is a black and white thing:
An intricate piece! What program did you use to do this, Mystyr?
Thanks Max - the 'program' is called 'pen and ink and paper and by hand'.
Oh, good, it looks so "digital" that for a moment I thought it was digitally done
That's okay Max - it took a few nights to be that precise, so I'm glad that you compared me to a machine
This however did not take very long at all - I've rediscovered fingerpainting!
So you could rightly say it was done digitally

I like that one Kyriakos - could you do sci fi sets? I'm thinking Warhammer like, though I don't know how much time it would take
Warhammer 40K? I dislike anything sci-fi apart maybe from some H.P.Lovecraft (which has little to do with sci-fi anyway).
You dislike sci fi? I hope that doesn't mean you've missed out on Dark Crusade and/or Soulstorm? They are both so good they are Art. (Fortunately they're still available, and play on modest systems, if you're ever in the mood - highly recommended). Keep up the good work in the meantime!
So you know I'm not the best artist, so no criticising. I've already criticised it a lot myself. Just thought I'd share with you my practice. I used Bamboo Wacom and Paint Tool Sai

Find your dream and stick with it...or your life will have slipped past in a whisper with you still on the bottom.
You didn't say how much you liked my fingerpainting
That's good Beaut. (I gave up on Wacom, though is Bamboo the program not the tool?) It definitely looks like a depiction of a recognisable human face
Why do you preface with "you know I'm not the best artist'?
That's my criticism - all art is just doing the best you can do with the amount of time you have available, and the so-called 'great' artists are merely people who have decided to allow themselves to have that time - usually, but not necessarily, to the point they arrive at becoming professional.
Taking the case of Van Gogh say, he was a dedicated amateur who only sold one painting! And what bargains they would have been!
If you like something enough you'll find yourself the time - and remember, it's not about showing off as much as developing, one of the reasons that artists are rarely happy with their work: I'm never happy with anything I do, but why spoil the mood of the thread by saying 'here's something I've done, but these are the faults a1 - z26'?
Also nothing photographs properly - you can never get the sense of scale from a jpg, which is why I don't mention the dimensions, and regardless the impact is completely different - everything handpainted I've submitted I'm doubly/triply etc unhappy with, know I'll be unhappy beforehand, but do it anyway just because...
Keep doing it Beautifull (Promise me!)
Dunno much about art myself, but I feel this thread is Mystyrious n' Beautified, among other several qualities
