| | | Creative Portraits: A Great Pose - The Blond I thought this was such a great pose I had to post it for others to have a go at it.
I'm still messing with Art History here, I hope I'm not boring people.
Tried to give it an unfinished look.

Palms | Like both of them.
Answers to questions - yes and yes. i downloaded the brush set from creative pro, it was a link Danny posted, but still getting to grips on just how to use really.
Had great trouble getting the AHB to work, I kept pointing the history at the wrong place (didn't realise to use merged history DUH).
But I'm getting there slowly.

BTW can someone correct my spelling mistake in the title of this thread - it won't let me. and its annoying |

| | | Re: A Gerat Pose Didn't correct the title spelling, because I thought "Gerat" might be a great photographer I had not heard of.

Peter | Hey...I looked up "synonym" in my digital Thesaurus and it exploded! Well....not exactly, but it did say "not in Thesaurus."
And thanks for the comment on my version of your nice photo.

| | | A request. This time, the renderings not what I'm wanting feedback on; the rendering was primarily created using Vabirdy's (Mark's) Landscape Painter Script-fu for those who are curious. What I would like is feedback on the canvas texture. I created it using GIMP's Mosaic filter. I believe the dimples comes close to match that of artistic canvas, expecially shows up with the watecolor rendering, but that's just my opinion. You really see it the best when viewing the complete rendering. Attached is an attempt at a Venusean crop. |
