Aya Hirano photoshop speed painting time lapse

More artwork at http://radiantdreamer.net

My relatively weak attempt at painting Aya Hirano of Haruhi fame. Overall, I wasn't satisfied with this one, and actually got pretty frustrated. Probably because it's the first time I've tried to paint an asian girl. That and the fact that I lost a bit of work in the beginning due to an encoding error during the capture added to the frustration. Overall this took 80 minutes plus whatever minutes at the beginning.

I'll definitely keep at it to improve my skills.

The songs are both sung by Aya Hirano, and both are from the Suzumiya Haruhi anime.

uhmmm can I ask what tool you sue to make such smooth coloring?

[vihena]

@lusibeth hi! It's actually the default photoshop brushes, and I use the eyedropper tool to blend colors in between.

[lusibeth]

I was wondering why you can change from pen to the color picker so fast D: why is that?

[vihena]

@lusibeth if you hold the Alt key, it turns into the color picker. :D

Hey first of all great job! You should be happy with this art piece, I would! Btw did you use a tablet or mouse? and if you used a tablet which one did you use and do you reccomend it? thanks!

[vihena]

@dreadfull345 Thanks very much for the comment! I use a tablet - specifically Intuos 3. VERY good tablet to use. :)
