Ok, I know PDN is a far cry from the mighty Adobe, but I like how this worked out. Ok, I just upgraded my PDN, and I'm still learning to work with it! Untill I can find a way to crack the Photoshop's key! Either that or pay 600$ for license!

It certainly looks like you can produce good results with paintdotnet, Amy! The only reason I have Photoshop is because my boyfriend has a computer that belonged to a hospital where he used to work, that was being ditched because it wouldn't boot up or run properly. After he cleaned out 200+ viruses from it, it runs fine, and it just happens to have Photoshop on it. I got lucky.

Hee! First Thunderbird draws Joe as Indiana Jones, and now we have Ken as Han Solo.

Actually, I did pirated Photoshop (which is an easy job). I might still have the kit on my HD, but I have no clue how to use it! The same with Gimp! JUST HOW DO YOU DO THE SHADOWINGS? with layers? I guess I' too dumb to follow the tutorials!!!

Katse, your tutorials are for Photoshop! In PDN things are different from what I've seen! Beside the fact PDN lacks a looooot from Photoshop's tools! Shadings and Higlights have to be drawn manually using a lighter/darker color in a different layer! And since I don't have a tablet, my shadowings are coming awful!

I've never seen PDN, but this doesn't sound too different from Photoshop, actually. I put my shadows on a separate layer too, but with the "opacity" reduced to about 25%, so the underlying colour still shows through. I don't have a tablet either, so Photoshop's erase tool is my new best friend.
