'Feathery' roses - quite different! You might want to load high resolution, but even without it, the background could use a lot of cleaning up. GL Reply »

You gave life to a almost fading rose! And I give you congrats for the patience to do it only with mouse (it sucks, it's difficult...).
Do you know Genius Tablet? It's as good as Wacom but cheaper. I had a Japanese Wacom, but... it was stealed... Then I bought that one, because doing PS without a tablet!... oh Gosh! Reply »

Thanks for the comments guys :]
Added a high res img. (didn't know I had to check the box for that, heh).
I could probably clean it up more, for sure. But then again, I'm in no way good at drawing freehand. It was a bit hard for me to tell what was going on in parts of the source img.

@erikuri: Thanks for the tip! I've seen some cheaper ones out there, indeed. Think I'll buy one next week. Would make my life so much easier! And it's about time I got one

@Keiley22: lol. Sure, do you send to norway? Hehe

Thanks again for being nice to my first entry. Reply »

Really lovely effect! It's a good thing you didn't overuse the mixer brush, you've kept a lot of the detail. Well done Reply »
