I'm still slowly trying to improve drawing with a tablet and colouring in Photoshop CS2. Used that mask thing for the 1st time in this pic! Hope that I'll get more used to and become more familiar with all the wonders Photoshop has to offer. Any comments and constructive criticism will be very appreciated!

I wanted to do a pomegrante picture for a while. I vaguely remember seeing a fantastic drawing of a huge yellow coloured pomegrante a long time ago, in a style kind of similar . I've no idea where I saw the drawing (or even if it was a dream), but if it sounds familliar to you, link me?

Personally, I'm still not 100% satistfied with the end result, but I haven't changed my featured dev in almost 2yrs, so.

Last Tuesday night I was in lecture and there was a girl with long black braided hair and wearing a red hoodie sitting infront of me, which inspired me to draw a guy with hair similar to Ritsuka from Loveless and bursting out of a huge pomegranate, with a red, white and black colour theme. Needless to say that this pic didn't go as I originally planned since I went crazy with shades. @_@

omg.. I think I forgot to colour his eyebrow. X_x
