My first attempt at digital painting/coloring my artwork. Something I've been meaning to try for a while. Miles away from perfect. But I definitely learned a lot doing it. Practice makes perfect so I'm going to do some more soon :)

I used photoshop 7 and a wacom tablet. I laid the flats, then made a brush with the opacity jitter set to pen pressure. I chose the light source colors in my swatches and used the pen pressure to create like gradients. Using the picker tool to grab different shades.; June 30, 2007 at 1:01 AM
