luckly my router stored there ip so once i trace it im going to pass the info onto the police and do one over on them  :twisted:

Painter 3? hmm.. that's old.

I like the dragon more than the horse, simply because you actually added a background color to it while the horses still have the canvas as the background.
Real watercollor is a pain to do so because new layers of painting won't actually cover the first one and will mix up making a mess, but as you're doing it digitaly, you can always do that, or simulate the goache effect, where the layers cover the previous and you can have a wide variety of colors.

no one wants to add anything????????????

this next one isnt my design, its a design from a person called dee dreslough. she dosnt mind people copying her work as long as they give credit so there is no harm in me posting. if anyone wants confermation of this i will gladly post the link to her site (and weiver) so you can see for yourself. it was supposed to be a smudge tutorial i was following but i had a hard time with it, so i sketched it out then used the airbrush tool in photoshop to paint over it. the original color is the green one, i changed the hue to red for the skin and background and yellow for the eye as i wanted to see it in red :P

your paint is improving, now try to add different layers of light and shadow to reflect the surface instead of the noise like effect. ;)

i got alittle bored, so i made a new background and inverted the colors on the dragon to make a white one. only way i could change the color of the horns was to invert it lol.
