UPDATED July 11. FINAL IMAGE





I put some pictures of how it is becoming, to see what you think. As usual, I'm working with Gimp Paint Studio (GPS) 1.5. And so the way I see how it works in a real project as a field test.
The first draft was very fast, only to get ideas for how I wanted the look of the lion. It could not be a lion either, so the "alienicé" a little but not convince me, so I let him more like a lion humanized. Change equal to the final again. We must never be afraid to change things, erase and start over. The sketch is just that.

Something that I especially useful is slightly shaded volumes to get an idea of ​​how will the enlightenment. trial and error again, and if we are not convinced ... erase and redo.


Ant this is a wip showing an overall view.

Whoa! That is very powerful. It looks like you've spent a lot of time and thought on it.

Definite win an "a Wow" award from me. You and Griatch definitely have done wonders with your GPS program.

Thank you for the Wow award - GPS is getting more and more known between artists


Yes and this is not the finished version, so i hope to spent a few hours more.

Thanks mahvin, i am working hard on this piece to impress more people and bring us more gimp painters

Hey man! thanks for the comment

Thanks man, it is not only related to "painting" GPS is a new way to understand how can we use presets and tools

Thanks for the report. Is photocomix Pmed? btw my web is www.ramonmiranda.com, easier to remember

You're welcome.

Are you asking if I PMed Photocomix? PM stands for PhotoMaster (Greg).

I bookmarked your website the last time I visited. I accidentally mistook you for a spammer on my blog, when you left a comment on the gradients. (Sorry about that!) It wasn't until Photocomix informed me you were part of GPS, I realized you weren't a spammer. Hehehe... (Again, sorry about that!)

Me? an Spammer? for sure! i am filling the web with a lot of Gimp content, so yes haha. Thanks for the apologizes, i apreciate, but it wasn´t your fault.

Also You do a very good job on your tutorials. simple to follow and clearly explained. kudos!

Good work on this so far, TheShock. Looks like it will be a powerful piece of art when complete.

Thanks Griatch, and yes , it will be parto fo my portfolio, is not a Fast work or study or something.so i have to make it with good detail.

Hello , i want ot share with you some close ups as i am still working on this picture (lot of time to be a DinA3 printable poster) . Wings are very important so they have to be rendered in detail, and also lions fur is important too,





Certainly i am using all my skills to do my best, but for now it still in wip. ihope to finish this week. as i am learning another software called Digicam. (new for me)
So what do you think about wings? and fur?

I am absolutely astounded. The detail on the feathers is wonderful and the fur is beautiful. The hands are so lifelike. It is an altogether emotionally moving image.

I can't possibly give you any advise. To me the feathers looks like real feather and the hair/fur looks beautiful and shiny.

The expression on his face looks so strong. You're so talented.

Wow!
That is amazing

its beautifully made

yeiii, Thanks for the feedback. I am very often "super detail" guy. but this is the way i like my work, if not i go to Abstract.

Thx

Thanks , apreciated.

well, i will take in account your comment, sometimes i over work my own pictures.

I am glad that you see an emotional piece in it because this is my intention too , motivate the viewer to think about what he see.
