    Default Happy Valentine's Day

    I have not been doing a lot of drawing lately, but I wanted to stop by and wish everyone a happy Valentine's Day.

    I agree with Rik Paul. Seems like everything you do has a touch of class about it. Good work Paul, I like it.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Great work Paul.

    I'm still trying to achieve the effect you created with the Playboy Bunny image you posted some time ago. When I have some free time I will ask some questions if you don't mind.

    That metalic effect on this one and the bunny( i'm guessing they are done in similar way) would make a great tutorial Paul. Pretty please.

    Thank you everyone for your wonderful comments. Yes, the heart is using a similar technique as the brass rabbit. I have broken down the brass rabbit into four steps In the attached file. It is a relatively simple technique using the contour tool. If you have any additional questions, I will be more than happy to address them. Let me know what you think.

    Here is a file with both the brass rabbit and heart for you to take apart.
    Enjoy,
