Description
Yay! I'm getting better with my Wacom! Forget background - background doesn't exist...This took me...shoot, I have no idea. I just sat on the floor listening to music on youtube and coloring this until I had an art-high and a back like a 90-year-old lady who fell down the stairs (maybe sitting on the floor to do this was a bad idea)
Here is the original: [link]

Thank you! Β That's good to hear - this was my first real attempt at digital coloring, and it was frustrating at places!

It's everything just a matter pf practise and patience, believe me
I come from pencils and inking. I needed two attempts to go into digital art. The first was when I was 16 - and my experience with it was just so awfull I didn't want to touch a graphics tablet for another couple of years. Well with 20 I thought: Mhm... maybe I'll give it another try. And that time it worked from one moment to another and I didn't stop drawing digitally and became better and better. And, god, I still have so much to learn! x_x
And you already made the first steps, just keep going and look around deviantart and study the great digital artists to improve your own skills That helped myself a lot!

Thank you for the advice! Β I also tried a few times ages back, but gave up because I wasn't good at it - things are going better this time! Β And DA truly has a lot of good examples

Thanks! I just zone out, so it's probably good that my back gets sore - otherwise I'd probably stay there drawing until I collapsed or something, lol This is my best digital work yet, I think!

It's quite good, and thank you for following through on coloring it.

I've finally just made a folder of stuff I need to color. Right now, it is mostly just filled with people's OCs that I drew w/o color. And Bond. Bond needs his wings colored.

Just don't develop a permanent crick in your back. That's too much of a price for such good art.
