Beautiful job on these Palms!! and what a gorgeous shephard

[palms1]

I have been trying different hair brushes ( again ) but was recommended on another forum by Ronnie to use Linda's smudge brush set at about 30% opacity as it seems to give a more painted look,and is quicker
I have had a try and have posted it for you to see along with the original if you want to have a go ! !

I had already gone back to using this brush on most of the animal smudges i do but at about 50% opacity for a softer look

the photo is from morgue file larger version here

Any one else found different/other brushes useful ?

Ahhh Palms a very good picture indeed. But When your on form I have seen some of yours rival this, dare I mention cats at this point - no I won't

BTW the blouse in this one was as hard to do as the hair.

Now Palms, that is beautiful, not only because lilies are my favorite flowers :-) Very well done

[mikajomc]

Still beautiful Palms. Its good to see the original too. Seems to make the smudge more impressive.

[palms1]

Thank you Amica and again Jordan

what makes these lily's even better is that I spent a whole pound on 5 bulbs and some other bulbs (in a packet, they haven't flowered yet) shoved them in a pot and left them alone super
