Anyone happen to have some nice tutorials for digital painting? I've been trying after a long break, but nothing seems to look good for me.

Traditional art fo' life!

Spoiler

; )

A painting I did for an English band my friend is in. The painting was eventually scanned and made into a poster, but the scanning process really mucked up the colours, and required me to use GIMP (for the first time).

The camera picture's also a bit crappy. : /

Check out the Sijun forum's speedpainting threads. Sijun is the old stomping grounds for many digital designers (Mullins, Feng, John Wallin, Sparth, etc.) and fine-artists trying to get a better grasp on the new medium. Very talented folks, lots of learning.
I created two DVD tutorials on how to use photoshop to sketch, and tried to cover basic and complex stuff. Those are for sell at massiveblack DVD's and downloads along with many wonderful artists that could use the support.

my portfolio lacks glowing eyeballs, so.....

I was at CTN Expo demoing for Wacom yesterday. Really got to get familiar with the new 21UX and Painter 11. It's a ridiculously awesome combo. Even more so than the older 21UX I have at work. You can really feather in some light pencil lines fast. I did this sketch literally in like 3 minutes, and 5 more for adding watercolor wash...

[Smiles and Cries]

I love this thread so much great stuff

I am on a deadline to finish 3 paintings by the 30th to submit for a chance at a group show but I hate rushing paintings because I end up with something I do not like. If I finish them on time I'll post

if not I'll work on them slowly and pass on the next show

all I've been doing are these still life oil paintings:

Fake band postersss.

 

[Mik2121]

Damn.. with all the quality paintings going on here, I feel a bit too ashamed of posting this, but oh well..

This is a 40 minutes environment sketch based on some of the stuff I’ve been learning by looking at some of Marco Bucci’s paintings. This is not the first painting I do with this technique, but recently I’ve been too busy with 3D stuff and I barely touched Photoshop for something else other than creating textures or getting some rough concept art done.

The day I learn to paint skies will be a day to remember…

Anyway, back to 3D stuff :lol

 

[sammy]

:] A Triffid concept sketch>>>

 

[DarkKyo]

Can anyone recommend a good, decent-sized scanner that they use to scan art? I really need one and I'm thinking about asking my parents for one for christmas.

Thanks!

There are a lot of talented people here. I hope all of you are making good money and love what you do. Here is a little something I did the other day:

EDIT

I'm jealous of anyone who has a Cintiq. I'd kill for a 21UX.

 

[GuitarAtomik]

Awesome stuff here. I started an art blog a little while ago.
