  • Test painting, Surface tablet and Krita

well I've finally got a tablet and this is the first more-or-less finished painting I have done with it [:D]

initial sketch through to final painting was done in 'Painter Essentials 2' (came with the tablet) which proved to be very basic, a bit frustrating, but mostly okay. The rotate canvas feature was very useful.

I'm considering adding some finishing touches if I can work out what they should be... suggestions welcome.

nice one john, i like how youve made the eyelids and upper lip the same colour as the hair (ish). The parting of the hair looks like it could be a little more... closer together, or like thin strands coming out of the main bulk perhaps. These are the things i immediatly noticed, good work again.
