All the kool kats make their own brushes.

And in an ironic twist of fate the website you posted also does not give credit to the original artists. The laundering of talent is now complete. I think it's very entertaining that so many of you guys inject other people's work straight into your own stuff. For example, mister magus who is...

It's amazing what a little PR can do to a product that was originally opium based and is currently the sweetened face of an enormous evil beverage empire. But that is neither here nor there. Conceptually it's tied together much better than all of your other work. It also has a very consistent...

And with such a convincing and well thought out argument like that, who could argue? What's this? A three syllable word as well? I'm impressed.

Large boobies are overrated. Anyway, the improvement in Yuna's facial structure from the last time you posted is fantastic. The color is also very good. There are a ton of very bizarre perspective and size ratio issues though. The way the horizon line sits doesn't seem to make any sense with...

As this is your first site I'm not going to try and tell you what styles you should use. Full browser window sites may be dated, but you have to start somewhere. The only colorscheme you should worry about is the one that makes sense for your content. Evaluate your art, since that is your...

Saying it is an "art site" is incredibly generic and uninformative. There are already tens of thousands of "art sites" on the net. What makes yours different? What in your content is unique? What is your content?

Don't use filters or textures unless you have to. Pick a font for your logo and use that only for your logo. Preferrably, pick a font that doesn't badly attempt to represent any form of handwriting. If you want a handwritten logo, draw it by hand. Text size indicates importance, your navigation...

Design templates make baby jesus cry. The techinical aspects of it aren't bad. But you need to have some kind of creative spirit to balance it out. Fads/Trends/templates are generic, even perverse, they don't apply to anything at all but instead try to fool the unaware into thinking they are...

You need more hugs Dave. Speedpaints are great exercises, I need to do more to free myself from a chronic need to draw guidelines for everything. As a whole I think you did a great job. For the future lay down those flat slabs of lighting and shading early so you don't get caught with...

Not necessarily, that only works for borrowed words in other languages that are adapted to Japanese. Like "hamburger" becomes "hanbagaa." Since there is a word already for "enter" it doesn't nesessarily follow those rules. I'm also fairly certain that in this context the Japanese equivalent is...

Jesus guys, not everything is done digitally. Believe it or not people actually did experimental things with film, ink, and paint before computers were invented. He used a manual camera and a long exposure time. Judging from the color and the intensity of the light I would say it's a small LED...

The same principles apply. You still need to observe from life and learn to draw the old-fashioned way. Digital is a shortcut now that adds more work later. Get a sketch book and draw, every day.

Color is an entire world you shouldn't even be worried with right now. There is no color. Practice your lines first, work on your anatomy, perspective, composition. Once you have a handle on that, learn how to color by hand. Then once you have an understanding of color, try digital. For now...

That is an enormously ignorant thing to say. I don't know if you are aware of this, but a well done font can take a foundry months to create. There is a delicate visual balance that must be maintained throughout all the characters to do it right, which is why only professionals should make...

Don't clutter your mind with the inconsequential. Before you even worry about anything digital get a better grasp of how to draw the old fashioned way. For all intents and purposes that is more accessible and more flexible.

Is this just a technical exercise, then?

Only if you believe that's the best you could do. The only boundaries that exist in art are the ones you set for yourself. If you think that all you can make with Paint is sprites, then certainly that is all you will ever do.

Yeah, GIMP is pretty good and it's completely free. Really though, you shouldn't have to lean on the tools you use to make your artwork. If it's in you to begin with, it makes no difference what medium you use to articulate your art. Bolteh has a very valid point, learn to draw the old fashioned...

That is way too erratic and bizarre for what you're doing. You're supposed to Design a Yearbook Cover with an appropriate theme. Your concept for the theme should be evident in the imagery, typography and its ability to be translated throughout the many diffrent sections of a yearbook. I...
