Description Why am I uploading this?

I dunno. Prolly just 'cause I want to upload one more thing before the end of the year. e__e

It's really not great. Really. The lineart is bad (didn't position the eyes and nose correctly) 'cause I did it in about 45 seconds. I just wanted something to color.

So, please only comment about coloring, since this was a practice for that--to get weird coloring and not make it look so... weird.

I think I did okay... There's no solid color patches, so that's good, and I kinda liked how the different colors all use the same "darkest tone"--the navy, steely blue color I used for the canvas background that you can't see... 'cause it's painted over, silly.

After a good night's sleep, I'll probably go, "What was I thinking???" and move it to scraps, but whatever.

Media: Corel Painter 8--Pen, Acrylic
Layers: 11
Time: About 2 hours, maybe

Oh, and you might expect more pictures from me soon because.......... I got a brand new 9x12 Intuos3 tablet for Christmas! Thank you, Santa!!

Well, I guess it's just my ignorance, but I can't tell that the eyes and nose are off. o_o;

I think the coloring is lovely^^ Haha, if I were you I'd go smudge-crazy and blend them all together, but that's just me. :3

Wh00t! Congrats on teh new, large tablet of doom! Better for your wrist to have a larger screen, huh?

They're off. If the eye were moved closer to the nose about half an eye's width, then it'd be right, but it's too far away from the nose for a straight-on view.

Thank you. Yeah, the non-smoothness bugs me, but it looks horrible if you try and go in with the smudge tool. A lot of the colors are lost--it'd take a lot of editing over, and you could still see the blender's brush marks. It looks better this way. =3

Indeed. It's even supposedly got a better grip on the pen that's supposed to make it better to hold, too. I'm excited.

Ah, well. It's not noticable to me. xD;

You're welcome. The smudge tool does kinda kill the colors sometime. Blah.

Hm, sounds cool^^
