Celebration is for all! When human’s festive feasts are over, little uninvited guests, serve themselves a small portion of leftovers. And, they wish you, from the bottom of their full bellies, HAPPY WISHES.
I used Artrage and, the wax Pastel tool to create this image. I wanted to achieve the colored pencil nature look, so I used a limited color palette from yotex’s Prismacolor pencil 132 set colors from here: https://forums.artrage.com/showthread.php?39076-Prismacolor-pencil-132-set-colors
For the canvas texture, I used the Juz Sketchbook paper slightly tinted from the Traditional Media Surfaces pack for Artrage from here: https://forums.artrage.com/showthread.php?39303-arpack-Traditional-Media-Surfaces
I'm so glad that you like my little fellow. Thank you for your kind words.
this is stunning <3
Thank you so much, you're too kind.
Thank you so much for the support and, kind comments. One big thing that I realised is that to achieve the natural media look is the use of a limited color palette close to the actual media that are available. Artrage is superior to simulate the natural media blending. It's not perfect but, it's close enough, much, much better than Corel Painter in this regard.
Even though the mobile versions are more limited than the desktop versions of Artrage I have seen some amazing works created with ipads. It's harder to create those natural media looking images with your fingers or fat stylus. It would be much more difficult with the ipad, except if you're using the ipad pro. Anyway, happy experimentations with the program and, I'm expecting to see some of your works with Artrage.
Nice.
Downloaded it for iPad, now I am even more impressed you did this digitally.
Very well done. It fooled me at first. It very much appears to be traditional media, not digital. Look forward to seeing more of your work in the future!
Yes, you could try Artrage. There is the free demo https://www.artrage.com/demos/ but, I'm not sure if it includes the more interesting Real Color Blending mode. The Lite or the mobile versions don't include this feature. The good news is that now Artrage is on sales -40% https://www.artrage.com/artrage-4/
I use a tablet pc (Surface Pro 2) with the Wacom EMR stylus technology. I can paint with common tablets but, I'm awful drawing when with them. On screen drawing I can manage, it's not like on paper but I can work with that.
Thanks , I will try Artrage out.
Do you use a tablet?
