You might think this was done with oil pastel...
NOPE!
It's Corel Painter.

I had an hour earlier today to experiment with Corel Painter X.....so far I like it and I'd like to use it more alongside my usual Photoshop CS2.
Also...I love drawing expressive portraits. I also love my sweetheart for having such a gorgeously chiseled face to draw <3

That's some excellent texturing and toning you did there.

It looks really "traditional"!
How did you manage to find a proper way of managing pen's pressure with Painter X, if i may ask? (it's the main issue i cannot overcome with painter!)

Thanks! I also had this problem. I kicked the opacity down and it seemed to grant me more play with the pen sensitivity. Still not as comfortable as I am with photoshop- HOWEVER, I noticed corel forces you to treat the media like traditional.

Yes, i also noticed that "real media simulator" thing (which is GREAT), but in some cases i found the simulation to be harder than the real thing!
Thanks for sharing also these kind of personal experiencies which mean a lot to me!
