Description
Sadly, this will probably be the last piece you see from me for a while. I've just managed to finish it by the skin of my teeth.My computer is totally screwed. Everything crashes every 10 minutes, or whenever it wants to, plus my computer restarts itself all the time when it feels like it, so you have probably guessed that Photoshop also crashes. I cannot have the fear of losing my work while I'm drawing. I just can't. Luckily, as I was finishing this, I saved it and literally 5 seconds afterwards it crashed. I'm not gonna do anymore to this, I can't, so I'm just gonna leave it.
I'm dying to do art aswell, it's torture is this
Info:
Photoshop CS4
Trust Tablet
1 hour ish (no idea tbh)
6 layers
Ref used
I do offer Commissions, note me if interested, however I don't know when I'll be able to start it.

WOW!!! This is BEAUTIFUL!!!
You know, you could draw, I always want to do computer art, but I can't grasp how to do it.

Very glad you like it
At first I was terrible. It just takes some getting used to, and endless practice. Oh, and a lot of patience and determination, you've really gotta like art and want to strive to get better

Glad you like it! I've wanted to finish this for ages, I started it weeks ago but haven't been able to finish it
Yeah, it's really annoying, I'm SO bored without art to pass the time.

^^ its one of my favs I think! urgh, that is annoying!! i'd hate not being able to do my art, or finish something i'd started! I found a bunch of unfinished stuff recently, I didn't even remember most of them!
I could imagine, well, as I said, i'd love to see some more traditional stuff! *hinthint*

I know, it was torture lol, and you have so many spare hours when you can't draw, it's unbelievable
Hmm, well I've got my digital back now I'm just not keen on traditional

That is incredible So mystical...
Hmm...a new computer might be a good idea. Last time one of mine behaved like that it died a painful death a few days later

Thank you!
Yeah, mine's very old, and due to the powercut something's being damaged, so it wouldn't surprise me if it went altogether in the near future

Best make sure to have everything backed up, just in case. I lost everything on my first laptop that way, it's not fun

Shinymane1 In reply to Maeix2 [2011-06-19 10:53:33 +0000 UTC]
Yeah most things are backed up, but I wouldn't be too heartbroken losing it, all my art's stored on here anyway

Yep, that's the only reason why I wouldn't freak out too much if it broke My dad's replaced it with the other one now, which is working well

You ought to take your computer to get fixed, or just get a new one entirely. Decently powerful computers aren't too expensive these days, I just hope you'll figure something out to continue with your artwork.
Awesome picture though, I like the feathery detail.

Yeah my dad's hoping to get me a new one, it's just that we don't have much money. He's already spending £170 on me for a school trip
He's hoping to replace it with the other one soon, to see if that one works
Glad you like it
