I've always been meaning to give digital painting a try and since I had some spare time I gave speed painting a go.

This is my first time doing anything like this so there is a larger area for improvement but each one of these took about 40min or less to make and were done using photoshop and mouse (I need to invest in a tablet some time in the future.)

So enjoy.

Thanks.

It's been a fun little side project so far and I do hope to gain the time to improve my over all work and with time bring it up to a near realistic level.

First thing on my list is to invest in a tablet and see where things go from there.

I like that one as well, it looks really good, kind of like something out of a Harry Potter movie or a forest from Zelda from the N64. :thumbsup:

Very impressed, definitely like where you are going with these... but i would urge you to tone down the softening a bit, let the images have a few more edges?

Making the images more sharp is something that I'm working towards. Still being new to this I'm stuck taking things one step at a time.

Just finished playing dead space for a good few hours and wanted to make something based around the necromorphs from the game.

Enjoy.

Ps I just got a Cintiq 12WX tablet screen and this was my test project for it.

I like that one much better than anythi I could do. I'm no good with my hands...

Keep it up! Sometimes I think that 2D isn't given the same amount of glory as 3D these days.

I agree with Amateur, 2D isn't given enough attention these days.

If it's something the Majestic or Kat are interested in I'd be more than happy to help.

Started to play with a Dr Evil concept.
