So I’ve been getting myself into digital painting and illustrating recently, and bought myself a copy of Derek Lea’s Creative Photoshop CS4. The above painting was done working from his sketch, and then following his various tips and workflow advice. I’m pretty pleased with the outcome, and learned a lot from this style of digital painting.

I’m currently working on improving my general sketching technique, which quite frankly is pretty awful. However, working from a sketch I’m already feeling pretty comfortable painting in this multi-layered way. More to come shortly folks!
