Jaccarran's Book of productive fun

[Janet]

To herkkusieni,  WELCOME! No one would agree that you are not off to a great start.  Maybe to not confuse yourself focus when doing colours and detail, do one at a time.  If, seperately,  you can get detail in greyscale work and then  get your colour studies correct then combining colour and detail should be easier.   Also just like StoneTape was saying, taking the time to let the work progress is fundamental. Some other artist I forget the name of talked about how most  paintings become incredibly ugly before looking great  and that part of the challenge is pushing through that period.

Thank you, great to be here! c:
Nah everyone's their own biggest critic and I'm no exception, I'm sure I'm on the right path at least!
But I do agree, I've seen plenty of absolutely crazy paintings that start with a blob vaguely similar to the end product, haha. I guess I still need to learn proper techniques and patience, but that's why I'm here, eh? :P

Also your last creature is really staring into my soul... I love it!
