me too

so you do everything with lines and paintbrush?

 

Yeah that's just a layer of strokes with the pen tool, and about 100 solid color layers masks or whatever they're called.

 

the original is really sick. i like it.
and then the water/reflection idea is really good, try that.

 

BTW, are you using a tablet, or just the mouse?

 

Mouse, never used tablet before

 

Original:



I'll try the reflection tomorrow. Need sleep [X(]

 

You should get one. Much easier to use.

 

How much? We're talkin' a teenager with a minimum wage job here, who probably won't have a career having anything to do remotely with photoshop.

 

They have some that are like $40 that work great. You don't have to spend a ton on one. Just for instance: HERE

I have used that one, and its more that passable. Its not a high-end model, but unless your doing stuff everyday all day and making money doing it, you don't need to spend hundreds on one.

 

holy shiit thats exactly what i need! i can usually draw wayy better then photoshop!
