@ Rainbows

No probs at all, and yeah tell me about it @o@;;
Traditional is so hard to get back into, I really struggle making the transition too
What gsm was that paper? Looks really nice to work with :D
Post consumer deal??

I'm about to do a piece, using water colour and an airbrush, for someone on here... X___X
Scaaaary

@ PrincessKasumi

I am opposite. I find it very hard to get into digital.
I prefer my watercolor.

It's hard to get back into digital when I've been smearing things around with my fingers XD I get very irate with my tablet - it DOES have a touch function, but it's not nearly intricate enough to replicate what you can do (blending-wise) with your fingers and paper.

nivvy;
it was a REALLY light paper. :( not ideal, but that just means that I didn't make many erasures. I got dangerously close to going through the paper on the heavily shaded areas XD
post-consumer, like recycled paper. o3o with little dots and interesting textures.

Gosh, I wish I could get into traditional stuff easier
It's like once I stop, I'm not able to get back in to it for a good long while
I can't do both traditional, and digital pieces at the same time
I just can't seem to do it for some reason X_x;;

@ Kat
o0o water colour <333 Can I see some of your stuff please?
I adore water colour ^^! I've been using it in an airbrush lately
But I love the use of it with brushes, such lovely texture, fades and shapes

@ Rainbows
Wow, that makes your piece even more special ^^!!
I'd be so clumsy with that kind of paper xD! Kudos to you <3
o0o got ya, I love that type of paper too, beautiful textures and surfaces

@ Poppet
I shall try ;_____;!
Good to see your thread is nice and active at the mo
Hopefully it stays active, should be able to attract a bunch of attention ^^

this is the painting I finished a day or two ago though the photo is still bad since it's raining so much and I can't photo in good sunshine.
I never used an airbrush. I don't know many techniques or tools since I taught myself even if I go to an art school. They don't teach me anything.

@ PrincessKasumi
Yeah same here ;_;
Stupid procrastination!

@ Kat
Awww, awesome ^^
I love the way you use water colour, I'm not able to use it like that
Yeah, art school kinda sucks. I mean I did all the classes right through school
Completed a bachelors in fine art, and am a restoration artist for a day job, specialising in fine painting
I definitely learnt more from doing work, on the job as a restoration artist, as opposed to art school
Shoulda saved my $25k loan, and spent it on something else to study, like nursing lol

I prefer being here to when I wasn't at art school and I have learned I don't want a career in art AT ALL. Less than zero interest. I'm here for writing mostly although it's only my minor. I learn a lot in my writing classes, but for art classes, they just say go paint. It doesn't help that I took the basic classes at a non-art school and there are gaps because of the school transfer in general.

I WISH I had rainbow pants. Usually you'll find me in super-baggy jeans.
I've lost about 30 lb since I got to college and I haven't been able to afford new pants.. or a belt .. hahaha..

Kat I'm jealous on how you can draw guys :( ... I got the upper half great but that lower half.. ugh @ u@

Like right now I'm doing something for Chi and her OC Shuuji looks smexy and then I look at his legs and it's just... football player legs. They're so.. muscular and curvy.. must be the pose I picked but I dunno lol

you can always tie dye jeans. Seriously, denim is a good material for it, though I haven't tried. I do think it would be fun though....

Ah really, Kasumi? I have been trying to mess with anatomy and pose more lately, but I use a lot of references to get anything to look masculine. I still think I don't do it well enough. Critiquers mistake my guys as girls or ask what's the importance of the androgynous look of everyone.

I would like to dye/color shoes and hats but I'm not sure on what I need to do it.

And yeah I seriously like and envy your guys. If I'm not looking at a live nude model infront of me it doesn't go so well. :/

I'll do it! ;v; but I'm like a millionty miles away.

I've discovered how gratifying it is to take the time to dye my own hair.. when I have someone else help me, they're impatient and the job is poorly done. my hair came out beautiful this time because I took the time to do it right by myself - section by section, slow.. so slow..

Sorry I poofed guys. Wanted to write my daughter a letter. Just in case I died or something.

I want rainbow pants! I've had a ton of different hair colors myself. Pink, purple, deep red, bright red, black, blonde, brown, rainbow once (but that one was wash out - I think I have a photo somewhere.... hmmmm).
