i just got a tablet and it came with like three programs, corel painter being one of them. Well they got this cool photo painter so i tried it out. 50 tries later and some terrible attempts at something nice here is two that i think are my best.
I can trace and color no problem with a tablet... but writing is still a pain to master.


Water color style. This one was kind of a pain, especially to keep the colors from blending and over lapping others... must try this again. Original


Gouache painting... this was my first 'good one' as you can see is a hella simple object to start with. Original

Edit:
New one.
Water color again.

New one.

Reason for edit: Two new images.

I LOVE the first one. The colors are incredible, and it's just...good. :D

I'm not exactly sure about the lollipop, to be honest. It doesn't really look like a painting to me, but more like a slightly blurred version of the original.

I actually really like the lollipop one. Looks like a legit painting.

The one with the eyes is alright. I just feel like that right eye (from our view) should be 10x more detailed, especially on the eyeduct, the eyelid, and the iris. But then again, I wouldn't really know how hard that would be. x]

i know that 2nd eye is a mess lol but it starting out blurry didn't help much.

as for the tablet I'm using it was a gift from my mom. She managed to catch it on sale and surprised me with it.
Its a wacom Bamboo (small)and she paid $100

That's weird. I used that same lime picture when I was doing a digital painting in this one class I had to take. Maybe I could find it somewhere...

Anyway, they look good. The cupcake looks nice, and I like your signature even though it looks like your name is "Anender". :D

LMFAO!! i still can't write on that damn thing.

this took me like 50 tries to get it neat. Tracing and coloring is like no problem. I can't draw but simple things like writing i'm at a lost to get the hang of it.
