Fishing On The Drinking Dragonby *AndyFairhurst

Digital Art / Paintings & Airbrushing / Fantasy

This is a speedpainting for me...I did it this evening in about 4/5 hours with a couple of breaks. I decided to see if I could work from scratch with no idea of what I was going to paint until pen hit tablet. Anyway it is cliched as hell but I think it is ok for the time taken.

Photoshop 7.0

Wacom I 3

Thanks for looking

Edit* I have resized this to a larger size due to the fact that the prints were small on the original. In doing so I have had to re touch a lot of it ( something I don't want to do again!!! ) and I have also added textures over the top so it didn't look so smooth. I also added more scale detail to the feet and some trees/grass. Anyway a larger print size is now available if anyone is interested.

Cheers

The attention to detail is spectacular! If I may ask what brushes do you use?

*AndyFairhurst May 10, 2012 Professional Digital Artist

I probably used hard edged and soft edged brushes mainly with a bit of airbrush and overlayed a texture at about 5%...if I can remember that far back. I basically use the same brushes now with the odd custom brush here and there

Thank you
