Girl Paint Test

cochtl

I couldn't sleep and I got tired of reading so I fooled around in photoshop for a while. I think it's a failure, but I did get to test out some things and practice with them painting skills....

Right now im thinking warhammer space marine type gal,just becuase of the shape the lighter yellow forms in the bottom left corner.

I do like the brown scribbles you have over it,is tah thow you did scribble over it,im curious

the scribbles are an overlay layer in PS

I have a hard time making shapes work with regards to color. It's always either too light or too pastel looking when i work on something. And in doing that, the forms tend to run a bit stoic and lifeless. There's no flare or emotion going on in the image.

I do like rich colors whenever I look at other peoples work and I'd like to incorporate that into my own stuff in a cool and interesting way. i'm thinking of refining this and making it look more like a gustav klimt type of style.

Thanks for the comments though.

I will try this out too. I hope it is easy as ABC. However, though a lot of people might take such things for granted, a ton of work goes into making car paint such as car paint screening. Car makers test car paint and ensure that it can stand up to the punishment the elements deal out and don't even charge people for it.
