I wish I could draw that lol
I always liked the look of thunder lighting the skies and reflecting on the clouds.
Truly enchanting.
Thank you for sharing.
*dodges a bullet*
I usually start with a 8.5 x 11 inch canvas at 300 pixil/inch, though i might crop/enlarge depending on how things are going.
I actually generally don't work that zoomed in, though I probably should. I find with the detailed obsessiveness that I get into (help me x_x) if I work TOO zoomed in they just get burry or even really ugly and jagged when I zoom out to a reasonable post size. Nothing is more irritating than finding that details that looked good at 100% look hideous at 50% and having to start all over again. So i usually work around 50-75% zoom for detailing (and i usually post at 33-50%), though I sort of jump around in zoom depending on what I'm doing.
I don't keep any specific brush sizes. In sai I used to use the brush enlarge/shrink shortcut key constantly ( the [ and ] keys in sai). My new tablet has a scroll wheel that i've usually got set to do that. So I'm constantly adjusting brush size.
As for brushes, I mostly stick to the crayon tool. I'll use the water tool early on in a picture to blur colors or smooth things when I'm laying down colors or blur basic details sometimes. I also usually use the airbrush when creating glow or foggy stuff (though I usually use the crayon as well). On rare occasion i use the brush tool ( i used it to create texture on my banette smile picture) or the pen tool for sharp detail things. Really, i just sort of fiddle around to see what does the job. I'm still learning the program and figuring out how i like to use it o_o;
