Sun and air in my eye: On the range, over the waterfall, hungry hungry hippos

You all will have to forgive my crapiness til I either get better at using Photoshop Bussiness Edition or get a better editing program >.<

Rosepetal- I use Fireworks. The smudge tool is your friend. (I don't think any other programs have this...am I wrong?)

This one is freaking random. I shouldn't corpse on this little sleep.

Photoshop has the smudge. I use it too often ~_^.

I really like your slice, Rosepetal... I like the 'hand painted' feel of it.

Thanks, Maniac!

I made that one a while ago after being inspired by the theme song from Charmed. I took a picture of my own eye and fooled around with it in paintshop.

I submitted it to digitalart.org but I don't think they ever posted it. Grr.

Well, here's my un-called-for opinion!

The only problem with this one is the handoff between Maniac and Amanda; that's not necessarily anybody's fault, these things are tricky.

Otherwise, it's very painterly, avoiding the hodgepodge of dancing clip art that consumes the average corpse. I agree with Maniac about Rosepetal's lead piece. The dog-worm is a bit random but it's fun and original. I also like the red-blue wave-fireball and the hose filling up the blue thing that almost looks like a water jug.

So, if you care, that's what I think.
