A New Beginning (digital painting)
#1
This is a picture I did in my graphics class. The dragonfly colony started as a doodle in the margins of my honors pre-calculus homework, and eventually became digitized. I wish I could've filled the canvas a bit more but Photoshop kept crashing every time I tried.

This image is absolutely enormous (which would explain the crashing). The full-res version is 30"x19" at 300dpi and it was 30MB over DeviantArt's file size limit. This is the small version. I made it big because I wanted to go get it printed and hang it up in my bedroom, because right now my room is bland whiteness.

The doodle:

PS: You get a cookie if you can name the star cluster in the top left.

Wow that is an amazing doodle in itself, and the finished product is AMAZING! I love doodling and drawing but I've never scanned and posted one before..

Thanks, I appreciate your compliments. Smile This is the first time I finished a picture based off of a drawing, so I was pretty satisfied, especially when I finished painting the wings.

Close! It's not a constellation itself but it is a neighbor of the Taurus constellation. Oui
I'm now aware of how similar Pegasus looks to the cluster in my picture though. :O

Wait, did you do it by hand or did you use Photoshop?

Because i don't understand, if it's by hand, it's amazing how you got it like that perfect.

If it's with Photoshop i don't get how you do the curves, amazing both ways.
