Smile A Personal Introduction

Hello to everyone at Abandonia! I was thrilled, after I joined, to see that you had an art forum -- there's some really nice work here, and it's wonderful to share with a community with similar interests. I do digital painting, vector art, and real media work.

My deviantart gallery is here, and a few of my pieces follow. Due to their very large size (for best detail), what I've included are thumbnails -- click on them to see a fuller view, then click on the new one that opens up to see it in its largest, original size.







Thank you for your time, and it's delightful to have found a new community here.

The first one was done in Painter, the middle one is real media (Faber-Castell Pitt Artist Pens on a canvas board), and the last one was done in Photoshop CS, point by point, with the pen tool. Right now I'm trying to learn Illustrator and it's difficult mainly because I'm so used to Photoshop. So many of the keyboard commands are unnecessarily different, and it can be really frustrating! :amused:

Are you an artist, and if so, what programs do you prefer?

pft, you'll get used to it=P

i don't call myself an artist like quint here but i like drawing when my boss doesn't bugger me, you can check my topic(actually himmler's topic) in art forum but it's crap mostly anyways.

i'm gonna check your painter definitely but i think you'd love artRage and check the users gallery some of the works are simply amazing

i prefer mspaint though :P
