Hey guys,

Sooooo, this is my first chop in like.... three years I believe? And back then I never did any brushing, mostly just smudging like a maniac trying to get stuff to fit (but weren't we all doing that back in the day? ) I got a Bamboo Fun & Touch for Christmas and thought I could use that opportunity to get back into chopping and try to learn it the proper way around this time (brushing). So here comes my first ever try at this stuff, quite rusty after three years away from any chopping at all, but I hope I can get there one day! And constructive critics are very welcome, I know I need it badly! And tips and/or donors to FB, interior and rims would be great, as I can't seem to find nice ones myself. I just need one for perspective issues, which I can't seem to get good at no matter how hard I try!

But enough text, that's not why you clicked into here anyways So I raise you my first ever try at brushing:

WIP:


Linework so far, open for changes and suggestions:


Thought about this background, but at second thought it might be a bit hard for a first try?


Huge thanks to WIP-watchers so far, you know who you are

You've definitely gone for a pretty tough design, but it should turn out pretty cool. Brushing is good so far, a bit blurry though.
Catch you on msn, righty.

Nicklas

Design looks good but that bg will be a bitch with the reflections

very nice start on brush, but it wont fit on that background...find some darker and less known bg... i saw that backgorunt more than 100 times on chops...

This bg is extremely difficult for the first try, because of the refs. You'll gonna loose your nerves

Thanks for the replies so far

Nick: Yeah, I just can't stop myself for designing weird looking kits, lol. And I can't catch you on MSN when you're never there

Chopperkid: I think I'll try to find something else, realized that it'll be a tad too hard for a first try!

CptDesign: Thanks for the tip, I'll hunt one out Or if you've got any tips for a bg I'll gladly hear it!

Dani: Scrapped that idea

Looks awesome man!
If you need any help - dont be afraid to ask

I'll probably need tons!

Could be good, working on the same original too, making mine slightly more subtle though

Nice Zykotec, looking forward to see it!

Not the biggest update, just started working on it again - but it's an update at least
