that's very nice.
isn't it too hard to work on a very large canvas? when you are in 100% zoom, you only see a part of the painting. you have to zoom in/out quite often, no?
The original size of this was 2000px by 1000-something.
I tend to work in bigger canvas-es, at minimum 2600 by +3000.
Working on a big canvas isn't that difficult, unless the software you're using becomes laggy. I think I got used to zoom in and out, so its not a problem now.

Yes. That depends on various things and depends on which style you want me to paint it.
If you grant me with a hi-res picture of the desired person you want me to paint, then I'll be glad to do it.
I find very difficult to paint pictures with low resolution. This is because in order to paint the details I need a good resolution to be able to see them.
You want me to PM you?

Thank you very much, but honestly I don't like this. I mean, I do like it, but I'm not really proud of this.
This is a test, and it's a bit dull. I have to improve my technique, so this is nothing serious.

Obrigado.

Is that bad?
PM me tonight around 10pm (eastern time?)

;) First one to be completed. And first one using a digital software.
Of course, is not my very first.

Thank you very much. Honestly. I do think that it's average too.

Probably I'll be sleeping by then, I think we share the same time, so I'll do it earlier.

i wouldn't call gimp "professional software". nice drawing though
It is pro for me. I'm hopping to use Photoshop later in the future.
PS: Is not a drawing.

On GIMP? I need to make sure this is right. The free software, the alternative to Photoshop? Not something super professional that happens to be named GIMP? That's amazing because I keep reading about GIMP's shortcomings, and I'm a loyalist to them, I'll never adapt to Photoshop, and the only thing I do in GIMP nowadays is GIF editing. I used to make signature images with it, and I got praised here and there for it, made me really happy. This is way above what I used to make, incredible.

Yeah! Seriously. 100% Gimp.
I guess that, nobody tried to use Gimp for this purpose?
