I'm working on some tutorials - I shall post them by the time I've finished them, so you can all read them. :wink:

Ok, so I've cleared out my whole PB account because it was such a mess, and created a subfolder for my artsy stuff, which - unfortunately - does mean all the elder links are broken.

I've replaced the most recent stuff, but some others were not worth a reupload, so that's why a lot of stuff is suddenly gone.

Alright, back to the art - you've already seen these, but this is the most recent stuff I've done:

Did someone say Avengers?

I'm still not sure whether I like these: I think the colouring's a bit too dark. What do you guys think?

Make them a bit lighter and then they would be perfect Maartje ... :wink:

Hm, that's the point: the texture is rather dark, so lightening it would really fade out Joanna's face.. Difficult, difficult.. But I appreciate your suggestion, thanks. :yes:

You can do another layer with Joanna's face and put it on top, then change the blend mode or the opacity and delete anything that's disturbing?
I use Photoshop, so I don't know if your program works the same way. :blush:

But even though they are dark, they're really beautiful!

Hm, I can change the opacity and all those things, but I'm affraid the layer option works ratther different with PS...

How about this one then? Basically the idea of an older P/G signature, but with a different layer:

The 'bolli bolsheviks' is actually a joke from gran in series 4, when Saffy claims that she is 'not a champagne socialist'. Joanna isn't either, but it would be a bloody good name for her party. :lol:

And yes, it should be PM, but I thought president sounded nicer. :whistle:

The Champagne Socialists would also make a good name for a rock band! :lol:

Nice idea for a banner too by the way! :whistle:

And yeah, you're both right: 'Champagne Socialists' sounds pretty fabulous. In case I'll start a rock band, I'll definitely consider that title! :lol:
