Believe me, I'm not often proud of my own work. In fact, I almost always dislike it. But this time I can say I'm DAMN proud of it. It's full of detail, even on 100% (I uploaded a version of barely 40%), so I think you guys can expect some details soon! ^^ I guess this is one of my best tails ever, and I made the splashes myself with my own brush Really, I'm soo happy with this one, hope you guys enjoy it too!
And if you are boring or having loads of time, I'd really like some critique! I always think it's fun to read that. Even if you don't have things you like less you can write what you like so much at this picture, so I know how to make my manips 'actractive'^^

I agree with you the tail is well done ^^
Really cool!
I can't criticise, because I don't even know how to do manupilation but I think your picture here looks good.

Without a doubt one of the most beautiful images I have seen in a long time. The lighting, the composition and the way you've painted in such wonderful detail....breathtaking.

If I could fave it twice, I would.

Photomanipulation is one of my favourite forms of art.
It allows us to see much more than what is apparent.
We can lend it any of the senses we like be it happy or sad or both.
Combine it with a unique concept and colour and there we have a masterpiece, just like this amazing piece.......

I hardly ever write on photo manipulations, as there are far too many to possibly comment on. But once I saw this, I noticed the natural beauty in this piece, and I had to say something about it. I am a huge fan of your work, but this is just . . . wow! for lack of words xD haha.

Keep up with the brilliant work!

OMG you are just too good, and I agree, the best tail I have ever seen. Tutorial? 8D"


There your comment is! ^^ I'm already thinking of a tutorial lately, but I just don't have the time to make one. I'm also afraid my english would suck in the tutorial, allthough I hear often enough my English is fine, lol.
Anyways, I'm glad you like it and thanks for commenting. <3

Wow! Gorgeous work, as always! The tail looks beautiful; also, I love how you made the water splashes -- they look so realistic! I can never seem to get mine to look realistic... then again, I use brushes, too, so that might have something to do with it... I don't know how to make them without brushes, though. lol

Esveeka In reply to corruptangel315 [2009-09-17 17:01:23 +0000 UTC]

Thankyouu<3
I use my own brush, only one though. It's a simple brush with some stipples and little stripes (comparable with how hair brushes look) and some special options. It's the first time I used them, normally I always draw every little splash without any brushes, but I have to say this works a lot better! I might upload it, together with a grassbrush and the hard round brush I use for drawing the mane and tail (:

You're welcome! <3

And, ah... I see. ^^ Well, that explains it, then. lol Oooh... that would be awesome if you would upload those brushes; I know that I, for one, would enjoy trying to use them, and I'm sure others would, too.
