Mii-chan Ohayou! (Completed)

It's been a while (once again) since I last posted my entry. But only yesterday, I got the time and the urge to finally complete the painting. I attempted to make the lighting more dramatic but didn't like it. I wanted it to have more colourful and cheerful atmosphere so this was the result.

The painting was done using Corel Painter IX using only acrylics-based media and later retouched in Adobe Photoshop CS2. I tried to make the hair to have more anime feeling, but it didn't go well with the overall "3d" feeling of the environment, so I drew the hair strands individually and blend it with the base hair colour. It took me 4 weeks to finish this painting, while only effectively worked on it for 40 hours (a week's worth of paid work... ermm... uh-oh).

I hope you like this one and please let me hear your thoughts. I was gonna say this was my first attempt in painting, but do feel free to criticise as much as you want. Thanks for your patience ^_^

Mii-chan Ohayou! (75% completion)

It's been a while since I posted the last entry. Reason being, I was very busy with lots of unfinished stuff and they're unworthy of posting. Today, I spent about 8 hours to continue painting Mii-chan Ohayou!, but still 75% towards completion. There's a lot of mistakes in the painting that I haven't fixed. But oh heck, I'm posting this anyway just for the sake of posting it. Well, hope you like it so far (the progress..) I promise the end result will have more intensity in it. As always, please feel free to comment, criticize, etc. Thanks ^_^
