Graphite, Photoshop 6.0
A naga head-shot.
So I'm done with this for now. I liked how it turned out. Hope you enjoy it as well.

This is actually just a test work. First to try and figure out patterning for one of the Naga's in a larger picture, secondly to try and figure out control of my mark-making, a contuation of my battle with the track-ball. I have found a new tool in my battle. Resolution. by increasing the resolution I am better able to control my mark making, and then shrink it back down again... well, here are some of the results. Bouncing back and forth between resolutions on this.
Anybody else have any experiance with this?
BTW, this was just a doodle done in the firelight around a camp fire. So the slight wonkiness about the eyes... yeah. Ummm... Heh... -_-'
Edit: Ok, so some friends 'yelled' at me to deal with the eyes. So I did. Thank you friends. (Yes, Nightsavior, that includes you.) So hopefully this is better. Though, it did bring to my attention the edge of her face that is against the back-ground. I tried to go paint enough to muffle the lines like I did just about everywhere else, but it just came out muddy. (bleh.) Any thoughts?

What I tend to do it keep it at the high resolution and just zoom in and out. In Photoshop CS2 the Ctrl-0 fits the image on the desktop and Ctrl-Alt-0 zooms to 100%. I also use the zoom tool a lot. If you click and drag, it'll zoom to a rectangle (alt-click is zoom out). Hope that helps.
About the picture, the proportions look great (I notice that because that's what I have trouble with when drawing figures - hence why I haven't posted any... ). She looks very sad; presumably, we'll see why when you finish the larger picture. Can't wait to see it!
I also like your color choices, and the background. Do you do your Photoshop work on layers? If not, you should - it makes life sooooo much easier!
