Oooooohhhh la la, can't wait for more!

The blue sky...

[A Coffee Cup that Listens]

That is cool!

[Daily Imagination #271 - Horned Knight]

Color and posing wise yes, but the characteristics have all seemed very different. If that even makes sense.

Xephio responds:

Posing is something I keep dissapointing myself at. I really need to stop with the boring front-shot idle poses

[Heaven]

Beautiful!

[Daily Imagination #269 - Canyon]

My eyes... they bleed! It feels so good! That's crazy how you got the green to work in there!

[Owl Ink]

He has seen some things...

Rhunyc responds:

Yes he has, quite a lot of things!

[Daily Imagination #266 - Powerline]

The loose appearance of this piece sells it , at least in my opinion, I try to paint loose and simple shapes, but I usually get wrapped up in detail and "realism" and then that kills the piece and I've wasted 3 hours. Seeing your "simplistic" loose pieces like this one, are great help on trying to keep it loose and simple!

Wow! did you use the same brush for most of it?

JoshSummana responds:

I think I used like 3 brushes.... Hard brush for 80%... a soft brush and a kinda dotted brush... for the scratches you can see here and there... just for a bit of grit. That texture around the mouth is a random textured brush that I use on the smudge tool. I dont like smooth areas that look overly 'airbrushed' so i soften it with a texture brush instead. Feels nicer to me
