Nessuna (by Princess Koda)

(original size is better ;-)

Nessuna...I guess that means ''nobody'' in italian or so...I would love to use that as my nickname @_@...but too many idiots sign up everywhere as nessuna or nessuno....so sad *drop*....

So this is my 2nd digital painting of my life...I so STRUGGLED with the face...first I used too soft brushes, so that the style of the face totally didnt match the hair...I had to do a new attempt on the face and I landed here....with some real flat hard brushes...
Still doesnt look like I intended to color it...

The worst was actually that I used an old sketch in pencil...so no reference for color...@_@ and I can NEVER decide which colors XD...

Here some steps XD

(AAAAAHAHAA...just noticed that I cant even count from 1 to 4 XD...when I corrected the 4 into a 5 I didnt even see that I missed out the 3 *hah* XD'''')

Next time something different.

Baby Philipp by Alex

This is the final piece with Babies theme, and a sketch which I'll give to Martin(a co-worker, a great friend) as a gift celebrating his wonderful fatherhood. I used to give away all my drawings anyway, they make people happy, and that makes me happy too.
The sketch isn't at all accurate, and Philipp's got such beautiful blue eyes I got distracted all the time! And it's also the first time I'm doing an A4 size portrait sketch, and my 3rd real person sketch. It's still a long way for me to go, this one took me probably around 5hours because of the size >.<

Disaster @_@ hohoho

...I HAVE to upload this now...I didnt post anything in a month (or even more >.<)...So this is what I was doing today/yesterday....
1st attempt to use oil colors (*sob*)...really bad....but well, NOW I know what I SHOULDN'T do next time...I'll draw/paint this again...starting tonight/tomorrow...

Better not comment on that haha...just posted to say ''I'm still alive''....
More (and better XD!) in the next days ^3^

(oh man @_@) hahaha
This here was the result after some strokes with the brush...so this wouldn't be in any case the final pic....but after I shot this photo I ruined it...So I'll start over ^.^

So this here is very interesting for comparison (later)
