Smooth

Usually I use hard brushes and generally prefer paintings made with visible thick strokes rather than spick and span pics with soft shading. Also when I have to do "analog" painting on canvas I always choose acrils. I like how fast they become dry so I'm able to make new clear layers which don't mix with each other like oils do.

However I must admit that I totally fall in love with THIS GALLERY so I decided to practice "smooth painting" with one soft brush. Here's a result:

I know it's not the best painting in the world but well... I didn't know that I can achive some effects so fast and easy.  In other words - after few years of digital painting I discovered how to use soft brushes :P And moreover... I have so much fun with it. Yeah, that's shocking. It's my STURM! blog not a "smooth&gentle&fancy dancing in the rain". Well, time to take care of my delicate, romantic side.... damn!

I'm satisfied with boar's body, however background is too "random" for me. Keep in mind: draw more enviro, you lazy bastard!
