Can you say WOW? I didn't make it but a friend of mine did, it was done purely in PS7 with brushes :)

All in photoshop?

I need to talk to him and get some tips! ;)

That was good, did you use a tablet?

not me and yes all in photoshop, but i think he used a tablet

I ment him :P, yeah it seems like that was drawing skills :)

if you could do that with a mouse... wow =\

I was have to agree, even with an optical mouse that is hard

lol it is simply impossible to do that with ANY mouse even trackballs

well, it depends, with the new tools out today he could edit it just like we do in 3D.

what new tools? :D

maybe I shouldnt say "new", but improved. Like the pen tool in PS is very very powerful if you know how to use it.

... they have i think, wocpads *i forget the term* but if i remember right, its a pad you write on with a pen, thats like a mouse, the best one i think had 75 layers of pressure, that ps has integrated to make pictures like this very easily (or i should say make it easier, this is very hard)

it's a tablet ;) i own one right now, a intuos2 6x8 tablet

it's wacom tablet

mine is 2048 levels of pressure detection, the lower brand graphire2 have 1024 levels of pressure detection :)

Nice so you got oen Randuin... I am getting a job I hope... then I will get one

Haha, awesome, I ordered a 6x8 Intuos 2 a few days ago. :)

Uhh... how much did you guys pay for yours?

it's 348 USD to my understanding (the 6x8)

The painting looks like something Arcipello on devart/conceptart would do. And by brushes he/she probably means using the brush tool, not custom texture brushes. I swear that was made by Arcipello -- identical style. It's not terribly stunning, though. If that was made by him, he's done better. His work often leaves me in awe.

Also, you must have been in a hurry to post it seeing how you spelled the title wrong. ;)

[edit]: Yup, arcipello http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/1386709
You don't really know this "friend" do you? Or are you just trying to make us jealous? :D

yes i do know this friend :) from 3dbuzz

Who ever did it, its nice... its one good reason to get a tablet.
