Description So, my 2nd piece in photoshop: Saria (and her fairy of course )

I kind of wanted to make a piece to commemorate OoT being 10 when it was 10... but that was a while ago now. So this is just a late one

Well this took a long time. Probably shouldn't have taken as long as it did but I messed up may layer usage, and redid stuff over and over. Started as a drawing in my sketchbook.

I didn't realised copy & paste gave you a new layer so I ended up with about 250 layers

I have a lot of issues with it like the grass (so hard! ), shading, legs, hands and general colouring, but if anyone can give me advice or anything I would really appreciate it because I'm new to this and learning to digitally painting stuff.

Okay enough artist's comments

wow that's great you did a really good job with the shadows, keep it up!

I kinda have the opposite problem, I always add too few layersXD

Wow 800 layers... your computer must have hated that Mine sure did
Heh yeah I manged to do colouring on loads of different layers, then adding more layers to do more colouring in the same place.. all very confusing

And thanks

Oh yikes well I think yours would be okay in that case seeing as mine only has a 80gb hardrive and 756mb of ram (I think), it was hard job for it. Smuging one bit of tree took over 20 minutes to go through heh.

What you working on now ?
