Pomegranate - Digital Painting for a workshop

Jul 16 2007, 04:47 AM


Subject: Pomegranate
Software: GIMP
Hardware: PC + Wacom Tablet
Time: 3 hours on and off

I know, I know. I have been a bit absent from AstaHost - that is because I am working hard on improving my digital painting skills. This is my entry for a weekly workshop at another forum. I was just able to complete it with couple of hours remaining. (This week has been busy).

Thought I would let you guys in on a 'sneak peek'. tongue.gif

This is a scaled down image. The original image is 1680x1275. (You can it out at the deviantART entry too).

Wow, this is amazing! I can't imagine something like this being done on a computer, and with a graphics tablet! This looks like a painted canvas! Congratulations and good luck for the competition!

Well - it is no competetion or something like that. We just choose a subject every begining of the week and submit one by end of week. Kind of 'group-learning'.

Done with open-source software too...very nice. Goes to show you don't need to buy a 1000$+ software package to get pretty impressive things done.

Ha ha.

Well - Photoshop does have its own advantages and GIMP has its disadvantages. (I have written about it here). It all depends to what extent we are using it. If it is a hobby and/or we need it for minor work, then there is no reason to shell out $600 on Adobe Photoshop CS3. (And that does not even justify priacy).

I have heard most people complain about UI of GIMP saying how it is not like Photoshop. But in my opinion, it only how long you use a particular UI that matters - the more you use, the more it becomes common and easy to work with.

    only real special feature that the application has is the ability to adjust the opacity of your
    paint. Anyway, below are some of the images I have produced with it. If anyone else has used it, I
    would love to see what you have made. Also the application has a somewhat new feature
    that allows people to play back the drawing line-by-line. I have uploaded a few of the....

    here - (makes me feel slightly narcissistic, which I'm not...) - I thought I'd go for it.
    I don't generally get a lot of feedback on DeviantArt and view this as an opportunity to get
    some constructive criticism. So, the attached picture is my most recent digital drawing and
    it's called "I guess I'll catch you later..." The original size is 1280x800 pix....

    painting in the curriculum) and the fact that my last server went down and took my site with it, I
    could not update as regularly as I'd have liked... In fact, I got so frustrated with
    disorganized classes that lacked focus; and professors who told me that there's no future in
    digital art or conceptual design (most of them believe that it's still the 1970s) that ....

    Hey everyone. I thought it'd be a good idea to put together a list of some links and online
    resources for digital artists, as there seems to be a number of us here. If any of you come from a
    fairly artistically traditional background as I do, it can be tough when trying to figure out how to
    take full advantage of the internet as a means to get exposure for your own work or just to learn.
    Believe me, there are tons of avenues out there for each; Some good and some bad. Please feel free
    to add your own two cents if I miss something. I'll start of with my favorite....
