Hey all,

Thought you guys might like this painting I just finished up.
Another tribute to the NES.

I'm learning brush techniques in Photoshop and I still have a lot to learn.  I must have done that tree three times over.

Very nice,  one thing you could do to add some depth to the sky and give the image a little more 'snap' is to dither the sky from a very pale (almost white) blue at the horizon to the current blue the 'whole' of sky has now, you may need to rework the cloud edges a little but it would be worth it.  Try it and see!  I like it, he looks so peacefull dozing there.
