Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris) Speed Painting

[Suzuka]

Hi! I'm new here :) I've just discovered the forum
A few months ago, I discovered that there was a software called ArtRage in the CD of my tablet, and since then I really ·$%&$%& love it!! It's great!!
It's the best Software i tried for painting by far!!
Well, less blablabla xD
I've made a portrait of Neil Patrick Harris (Barney Stinson from How I Meet Your Mother) and I'm very happy with the result! :o So i would like to hear opinions

Funnily enough I think the greatest boon to painting and drawing has been photography.

This is really cool.

It's a wee bit quick to see all that you were doing in that it seemed like you did some erasing back. I caught a few frames occasionally of that. But then it looks like you blended it back out? Is that what I saw? Also, were you toggling the trace image on and off because it looked like you did not need to do any structure lines at all.

Anyway, it's a really good likeness for sure and the video is fun to watch. You have what looks like a very practiced hand with doing portrait style drawings.

Glad you found ArtRage. It is rather cool, isn't it. :cool::):):)

And welcome to the forums!

Nice eye, you got me xDD.

I started recording while drawing, but then I noticed that my hard drive was only with 5gb free so I couldn't record the entire process :(. So I decided to do a little trick, I drew everything and when I finished it, I recorded everything erasing layer by layer. But the order of erasing some layers were missplaced. For example, in the face I "drew" first the shadow, and not the structure lines, like I did.

By the way, thak you all :)
