Description I decided to draw something again, after a pretty long time. I'm quite happy with the way it turned out.

The reference used is a picture of one of the wonderful Lutz-Dolls. Every single one is amazingly beautiful, I might start drawing a series of them, who knows.
However, I'm not sure if the category I picked is correct, suggestions are very welcome (:

Drawing Time: ~6/7 hours
Done entirely in Photoshop CS2

Critique is as always welcome <3

aw , thank you!

Well, basically I'm pretty much self-taught - next to the basic art education you get in school
It's easier if you use a reference - otherwise it'd probably never have turned out like this :3

Oh, I'm sure you can do it
Are you using a graphics tablet? It doesn't really matter whether it's Wacom or not ( didn't use a wacom for this one ), but the pressure sensibility really helps a lot.
Also, something that could help is choosing a vague color palette - with a range from highlight to shadow of the color you want to use. In order to not make an image appear flat, you need quite a contrast between the highlights and shadows

Feel free to leave me a note if you have questions - I'll try and answer them with the little knowledge I have

ok thanks very much I would love some tips and advice from you it would mean a lot and one day IF I do get good as you I will mention all my inspiration was from you β™₯
No I got no tablets :/
I want to use Photoshop Cs4 to make a graphic drawing like your "Bewitching doll"
at your skill level how long does it take you to draw it on photoshop?
Just the other day I tried to draw like Female Anime eyes with photoshop
I fail badly... I can't even draw and curve I must need a lot of patients with this

Oh my, sorry for the late reply >_<

Well, I use a tablet, which makes things a lot easier thanks to the pen pressure :s Although I've seen very good artwork done entirely with a mouse too, so don't let yourself get stopped by this

According to the description, I took about 6-7 hours drawing this

As for getting clean lines with a mouse, you could try using the pen tool/ Adobe Illustrator. Once you've got the outlines done, you can easily import them to Photoshop

ich hab ein Tablet von Aiptek, ca A3, funktioniert einwandfrei meiner Meinung nach, wobei, ich hatte noch kein Wacom in der Hand, somit hab ich nicht wirklich einen qualitΓ€tsvergleich (:
