Totally fine! And that is VERY cool! Great style! c:!
The choice of colors is fascinating and mildly disturbing, like an old corpse. But therefore also incredibly organic.
Well, reinventing yourself with a new thread. Why not! :ob

I DO, I DO!!!! I CERTAINLY DOOOOOOO!!!!

Wow, this is one of those pieces I almost regret enjoying so much. Like a straight-jacket for the mind from those places we know we shouldn't smile at & breath through. It's about to get much worse, or it did and we're about to find out.
Reminds me of early Frazetta a little, and McKean's work on "A serious house on serious Earth". Please keep them coming. The hard outer lines of the center figure really help set it off, lift it up; and their squigglyness makes them seem masterfully effortless, very nice!

Hello again Ka-Z I am full of admiration for your achievements.
glad to give a chance for vrv, i will have many questions about production in future ... :mrgreen:
I wonder if you are using the latest version of vrv. :roll:
whether you are overwriting existing files and whether you are merging layers without problem, you wrote that you are working on one layer
The colors of the corpse are something I like, which brush you use the most, you probably have one c:! :oops:

Wait a second, is this a new painting, or one of your old ones? It's been long enough that it almost doesn't matter anymore, but I feel like I remember it. Do you have a vague idea how many paintings I saw of how many artists and how many of my own. Makes me wonder...memory is fascinating, isn't it. Anyway, it's an old one, isn't it? :| (still insanely precious, of course) :hug:

ah thanks for the warm welcome all!

Borjonx; wahh didn't expected to get someone that excited, thanks a lot! I gonna keep them coming don't worry :hihi:

pudj: latest version yep! Fav brush is defo nÂș9 for its hue variations, though I also like to play with 7 & 8 because they allow for some broad covering while letting what's below through (if that makes sense)
I like working one layer only, coupled with the unique undo it pushes focus, acceptance of f* ups and in a general sense I think an artwork can only gain from the fact that having to paint over your mistakes, rather than going backwards.
Obviously when working for clients on PS that's another story...

Taron: Yes new one, done in the couple hours before posting it

Excellent, makes me super happy! :D
Don't hold back, if you still have a bunch of your old ones! You can totally make one big legacy post or so, if you wanted to. I sure wouldn't mind! :ob
