New Picture

I've almost got to the point where I'm creating an image from scratch. Most of this one is just my work only the body is a mannequin (The same one in the last post). In my opinion this is my best work yet. It took me about 7 hours to do it. I think it did at least. Maybe more because my computer is really slow and hates Photoshop.

I didn't plan any of it it just came together as I went. Originally it was just going to be a normal demon with two wings just standing there. But it changed to just one wing with a tattoo sprouting from it. I made the frame then decided the tattoo was going to be flames of some sort. Then I had the idea of it actually turning into flames. Pretty cool if I do say so myself. It took me forever to do his skin colour because I couldn't decide on what colour a demons skin should be. So I went for red. So there it is.

I like to think I'm getting better at this. It was originally a mannequin. I changed the way I do my line art. The lines no longer stop short of where they're meant to. I'm getting better at the shading aspect. At least I would like to think so.

Anyway, I'm going to keep practising and hopefully I'll get to the point where I won't need to copy anything to make a picture.
