I made a time-lapse video of creating the digital painting for my friend.

Video Found here:


Hope everyone Enjoys

I watched the video, and I really liked how well the painting came out. Did you do this on an iPad, a laptop or what ?  I have been looking at some of the painting apps for the iPad, but I was just afraid they might be too complicated for me to understand and use.
I am really impressed with how smoothly you made the digital painting, and I know it was at high speed; but how long in actual time did it take to make the picture ?

Thank you for responding and I created this on my laptop with  my wacom tablet which allows me to use a tablet pen and be able to draw as if I am drawing on paper, I'm a Uni student learning new techniques on digital painting and this took me about 1 hour and 30 minutes (not including video editing)

You do some amazing work! I like it, it looks like the guy you were drawing. The arms don't look very strong though, he needs more red meat.

What's with the my little pony by the way?

Thanks I appreciate it, Lol yeah I'll let him know he need to eat more Meat and the my little pony thing lol I was listening to someones playlist of songs and that came up One moment I was drawing then the next I hear that lol

I am really intrigued by the idea of painting on the iPad, and there are several app programs for doing that . I just need to look at the tutorials and see which one will start at a basic level and that I can understand.
My daughter got me a Wacom tablet and the little stylus, back when I was using my dinosaur desktop, but I never really got the hang of using it, and then we moved (yet again) and it was lost somewhere in the move. The idea of it was great, but my abilities to understand it weren't !

I am checking out the Youtube digital painting  tutorials and videos. So far, I think this might be the best one for me....
