I like it! Nice painterly strokes and good detail. Is it one you made?

I am having a bit of trouble with the AHB, (being new at it), getting the nice strokes and nice detail too. I need to learn more about how to start with the larger brushes and reduce the size, layer by layer until I reach the paint and detail combination I want. Can't get that to work for me very well.

Sure wish the Trimoon brushes would work in Photoshop 6. That would help this beginner a lot since the settings are already made.

Re: return of the cuties

You guessed Steve it is a brush i made from a oval shape quite easy to do and you make them in whateversize you want, It also shows that with ahb you dont need fancy shapes etc to get a result, now if you want to you can go on and alter settings giving them a "wet edge" alter the colour purity etc etc
Now if i have done it right and it is a first for me i have attached the brush's they are in 5 different sizes( they are very basic) but you are welcome to use them.
Steve i dont know wether they will work for you in Photoshop 6 ( you put these ones in the brushes folder and select them from the normal brush menu top left ) If they do not work i will bully you into making your own.

Hope they work and someone gets some use out of them

Re: return of the cuties

I like your brush work, Palms. What brush did you use. I was going to try a smudge technique but after a couple of aborted attemts i wasn't satisfied so I did an AHB version. It is a little different from yours. I used the ones from Trimoon for mine.

Thanks for the compliment and pointing me to the brushes. I didn't notice them before. I guess I had a senior moment. I really liked your AHB work on this cute little dog.

I'll be anxious to see how your smudge painting turns out. Perhaps it will give me some incentive to try it again. If you wouldn't mind, please post the brushes you use and a little explanation of how you did it. I really need some help getting started on this type of painting. Thanks in advance.
