Splash by uilleanngirl
My attempt at a water drop in keeping with the trend. Gah! This is as good as it's gonna get. Used a photo ref... the colors here are probably a bit brighter than they appeared when painting it... Ah well.

photo reference I used was this stock photo on deviatnart http://lounalovegood-stock.deviantart.com/art/LS-mister-O-81848418

great job. looks just like the ref

Sorta. I feel like I should have chosen a drop with a simpler color scheme, to make it more recognizable. This is almost too colorful, don't you think?

maybe. i think the drop part looks like what it should look like--but the background doesn't look like water. it's good either way. if you ever want to try this concept again, perhaps one with a simpler color scheme is the way to go.

Sweet, so the drop contest continues.
This one makes me think of the T1000 for some reason...

@ pondocus: umm... good? :P

looking back at this, it looks slightly metallic/waxy. but in a good way.

I like it a lot, though i can't see water in it but a couple making love :)

I knew it wasn't very recognizable. :P

@ test3: I wasn't gonna say anything but, I thought I was the only one sees it that way. lol. @ lilleanngirl: You did a darn good job on this. :) Viewing both the painting and reference back to back I see how well you represent this image with Colors DS and developed your art is.

@ Inque: Thanks (not Colors DS, by the way... iPod version). The Pogo stylus helps a good bit, makes it easier than before.

You people using Pogo stylus should take part in that Pogo stylus contest, there are only 2 pictures from Colors! there, and quite a lot from brushes.

@ uilleanngirl: When I posted my previous comment it was very late in my part of the world. My attention span wasn't as sharp as it is during the daylight hours otherwise I would have caught my mistake. This painting is very inspiring. I think I'll paint a similar one too. :)

@ jetboy: well, I guess it wouldn't hurt to submit a couple of these things I've already done... no way I'll win of course, but maybe it can promote Colors! a bit at least!
