Description Breathes a sigh of relief ^o^ its so nice to do a painting for your self ones in a while, i've been toying with this concept for a few months now and I've even painted a few practices before diving into the final one, i also needed a big kick to try new brushes and textures and this was a great use of both.
i love Shen's New design it suits her so much more then before.
and i have to admit i really like Green and this is one Green painting XD
i hope u guys like it and i hope theres more like this to come

I preferred the other version but I also find that Shen is more elegant like that
Beautiful landscape. Every cloud has a silver lining ^^

I'm not criticizing you or anything of that sort! I really admire your art.
Don't take this as an insult, it's just that it was the first thing that came to mind, so I decided tho share it.

ah, what a wonderful painting Teggy! <3
i really like the atmosphere in this 8D and that background is lovely as well!
looks like a really beautiful place to relax on that soft fluffy moss to escape from the rain x3

I've been collecting brushes for years so i can't recall where i got every brush from but i do remember i got the foliage brush from here [link]
The brush i used for the moss and basically everything else was a dry rectangular brush it could be used as a blocking brush or a smoothing tool so i think i've fallen in love with it.

and a handy hint with rain is Less is more. i uses a thin oblong shaped brush here and put the settings onto scatter and quickly zipped my brush over the page at two different sized brushes, then i uses and star stamp brush and twinkled in some of those for more of an effect.
i hope thats helpful for you ^_^ no one teaches me this stuff i sortta make it up as i go along.

I really appreciate the reply. Yeah I just pretty much experiment with photoshop.
I used to use SAI but im trying to get away from it since Photoshop is more.. main stream?

Thank you for the foliage brush I have been looking for a good one.
hmm a rectangular brush for blending.. Interesting.
