A step-by-step progress of my drawing Tea and Moths. I originally made this for friends who were curious about my "process." I put "process" in quotes because I'm kind of new to this, and I'm still trying to settle on a personal method of digital painting. Every piece is made a little differently, but so far I think this is a fairly good representation of my method. Hope this is helpful to someone out there.

I work in Photoshop Elements using a Wacom Tablet. Usually I use round basic brushes. I also like using these custom brushes from Melanie Delon: [link]

I love seeing the process behind a piece. You make it sound so simple :)

My dear, you are my hero. This is similar to how I make stuff until step 6, the finishing has always gotten me. I am going to follow this for some concepting work I have to do tomorrow for the firefly mmorpg I am working on. Wish me luck! If you are interested I will send you the results.
thanks again!

Geeze I knew concept work was tough, but I had no idea. I am almost done with the concept piece, which is pretty standard and lame, but it is just to illustrate how it is done for the other artists on the team. I am a designer by trade, drawing is just for fun. In any case I will send it your way. Btw I have been using that guide of yours on this one. I haven't followed it to a T, but you have definitely gotten rid of some stopping points for me :) Btw I showed that kaylee piece of yours to some of the guys and they pretty much melted :)

well this [link] is the best of what i could do. The character is pretty blah, but it is supposed to be an instructional of sorts. Let me know what you think and maybe how I could do it better.
