Buck Testa 5,505 March 27, 2015 Share March 27, 2015 I'm going to have to look online on how to practice certain texture techniques, I didn't quite get the effect I wanted in her mane. 8 http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Billy%20G%20Gruff http://billyggruff.deviantart.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPVpSXbUpDYTcaFHTPiPjYA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DashYoshi 9,565 March 28, 2015 Share March 28, 2015 This is a really nice drawing of Celestia. I like the way you painted her. Good job! ~ Created by @Princess Moony ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HereComesTom 2,268 March 28, 2015 Share March 28, 2015 That picture's not bad; it's stylized. That's no euphemism, either: I could see an artist who knows exactly what they're doing painting Celestia just like that. I kind of see what you mean about her mane, though---I'm not an artist or an expert on painting by any means, but maybe keeping the brush on the canvas for longer would make her hair look more...what's the word I'm looking for...fibrous? I'm saying that assuming this was physically painted, of course; it's getting harder to tell as technology moves along. What really impressed me was the shading on her face and neck---you really did a great job with that! Especially the part between her chin and her ear; it was kind of subtle, but it really did a good job showing where her head ends and her neck begins. And it was shaped perfectly.

Complexity 181 March 28, 2015 Share March 28, 2015 I really like how you used the medium for thick lines that look very unique and visually appealing. Great piece right there!

Actually I did it in photoshop, but I was going for a painted look. Thank you for the compliments though! Yes I'm going to look into techniques for future use, I want to get a look that is both like hair and like smoke, something that seems to evade me at the moment. Not for long though.
