Coral Painter 11

I downloaded the trail version of Coral Painter 11 on Monday. I've been testing it out and it is a pretty incredible software. The tools take a little bit to get used to, but once you get the hang of it you can do some pretty amazing stuff. It would also be helpful if I had a graphics tablet... someday!

Here are a few rough samples of what I have done.

A was kind of going after the "disney animation" look.

This software would be very useful for creating animation backgrounds.

Finished!

I completed my fishing painting. Below is the finished product. I have also included a few "close ups" of some of the details.

(Due to size reduction the colors and picture quality may not be very good).

Now all that remains is to have the painting scanned and then varnish it. I need to order a frame for it too. This piece is going to be in a show from March-April.

Painting Progress.

As you can see the painting is starting to take shape. Once again, this piece has strong influence of the "early american" style.
