happy holiday greetings

I sent this out today as my poor man's holiday greetings- I did it in photoshop of a smart element made in illustrator from a photo- since the true work is in the rendering not the proportions- it was good practice on spotting colors and blending them- still have a lot of work to do but its a start- maybe after a hundred of these I will be comfortable about rendering... oh well- here it is

sketchbook bro 6 (um pro)

just got sketchbook pro 6- wanted to see if it has some real upgrade- WOW- its cool to me- i especially like the zoom in feature with the pencil lines not getting too blurry as on sketchbook pro 2011-makes smooth clean lines simpler and the add of coptic colors and more brushes is a needed add- I noticed the added french curves and the control curve feature will make vehicles and smooth curve features easier- even my loose style is enhanced with this tool- cool beans
