R2D2 robot droid.
Leia slips R2-D2 a disc containing a distress message and the plans for the Death Star battle station. Once again on the planet Tatooine, R2 and C-3PO are abducted by Jawas and bought by Owen Lars, adoptive uncle of Luke Skywalker. Luke discovers a part of the hidden message but does not act on it, and R2 escapes on his own to seek out Obi-Wan Kenobi. Soon Luke is forced to leave Tatooine with Obi-Wan, Han Solo, and Chewbacca, and they attempt to deliver R2-D2 to the Rebel Alliance. Along the way, they are captured by the Death Star, but eventually rescue Leia and escape.

Photoshop Brush Settings
ArtRage Drawing
ArtRage drawing based on a sketch by my friend 'Joel Carlo' who's sketchbook was featured in 2DArtist Magazine. You can download his sketchbook from his awesome site: joelcarlo.net
As you can see the 'chalk' tool is selected and was used for this sketch. You can download the ArtRage file if you like the colors... Here:ArtRage File Download

Horton cleans his ears
Bit of a different method this time... started with a normal brush on 0% softness on 14% opacity and then moved to 48% pretty much for the rest of the painting... Also instead of layering strokes I blocked out the image... adding darker areas and then building up to lighter values.

One Click Downloads
Rapidshare.com is the best 1 click download site if you are happy to pay the $10 or $12 each month for multiple downloads.
However, if you don't have a RS account you can always use Google to find and download large files (over 500mb) This means you don't have to worry about download limits... yay.
Simply search google for "whatyouwant hostingcode" for example "shareware http://adrive.com/public/" - don't include the ""

Painter Final
Completed painting with conte crayon and broad acrylic brush stokes in Painter X... color correction also applied.
Pretty Face
Read a book on digital painting today with explained that using a mid color 'pattern' with the 'healing brush tool' can be helpful for blending... more effective than the smudge tool.
Anyway I had never used the healing brush tool (a band-aid icon in photoshop) and it worked really nicely.
Also I used the airbrush tool which I never used to use and then redrew the face with color... that worked okay too. (Note to self: Remember 'highlight shadows' selection.)
... Visited city gallery too... Busy day.

Adding Color
I used a hard oval brush set to 25% opacity and 45% flow (not using airbrush) on a normal layer of 80% opacity to add color. I used the forbidden smudge tool to spread the paint and make minor fixes.
Kung-Fu Panda
This was drawn all in photoshop... shape of panda was changed during sketch process by placing a few guides on both the ref pic and the canvas I was using to create a grid.
Black on white
This method of simply using black on white is one I like more and will stick with in the future... As you can see here (with the colored homer) color is no problem with this style.
