Anyways. I can't wait to see it done!
My "technique" in Photoshop is really to use as few layers as possible. The main body of both my gryphon and the heron were single layers. There's probably a much better or efficient way of doing things, but I tend to think that using only a few layers forces me to think of it more in terms of a painting. I generally just do lots of scribbling with a tablet and different colors and opacities. I try to smudge as little as possible, I tend to overkill and it always ends up too smooth for my taste. My general plan for feathers is base color -> outline the different feathers to get their direction down -> scribble scribble scribble. It's not really scientific.
Thanks again for showing so much interest in my drawings! I'm glad you like them!
They look like little orchistra conducters.
photoshop 7?
It is Photoshop 7... I've never worked with any other program, and I still don't know what I'm really doing with ps7. I do think I'm improving though!
