Skull Render WIP
Just practicing a render of a skull. Using an in-browser photoshop-like program using a mouse: Pixlr.com (I'm like 1% done) RIP: (render in progress) Reference: Btw, does anyone know how to make a GIF of a WIP? (instead of posting multiple separate images?) Thank you. -
Art preprod for large projects?

Re: Sketchbook: Derek Tath
