3CH:A smoking steam-powered gunboat with shields!

This is the first update for me in a while. I know that there are some problems with this, but I'm really just trying to get used to digital painting again and getting it to flow like it used to. I want to get this stuff DOWN this summer.

Anyways, that was my theme. I've found that I'm not really ever completely pleased with my compositions...I think I need to work on that more. Practice compositon. Okay.

Critiques welcome

Richard Mattson would say this composition is lousy and boring...just being dead center of everything. What would happen if you moved everything to the left? hmm?

wow I've been thinking about Mattson way too much lately...I hear his voice ALL THE TIME.

I do like the feel of the brush strokes though, and the blue tones are pretty...I can't decided how I feel about the heavy blurry brush strokes vs. the fine sharp detail brush strokes...they are fighting eachother, and I don't know if its good or bad. It's hard to tell on a computer screen that doesnt let me see the entire thing on one page...

but some of it is icky, like that...what appears to be use of the sharpening tool in photoshop...bit in the smoke, thats just not working there.

And also, it looks like a june bug. I hate june bugs...

upon looking at this again I do like the blurry stokes vs. the more detailed ones, it gives it a good sense of movemen..but some things could be worked on more (the sand and smoke mainly) but I think that sun is just...tasty.

Stop trying to make me cry, Rachel. You can't do it.

Well then it's your fault. You need a bigger better monitor or a higher resolution display.

Yeah I agree about the sharpening...that's yeah. :P

They're sure great, aren't they? June bugs...in June... Mmmmm :)
