a little late, but better late than never.....fat.....

well, its a little late and i missed the illofriday deadline, but i still have something that i have been working on - pigs are pritty thick and would definately fit under last weeks topic of fat! anyways, i have been slowly reteaching myself photoshop because it has been way too long since i have done anything in it artistically- 5 years since my high school design class to be exact. its been a little hard for me to draw anything amazing though because i do not have a tablet yet and actually did this one with just a mouse. just a little bit about the piece now - i dont know if you guys will pick up right away on this or not but it is actually 2 pigs in 1! what a deal right?! well the faded background is his behind and little squiggly tail. the front more dominant layer is the front view of the big guy. after doing a little drawing and adding some color i decided to use a little bit of texture and outlining. so there you have it, my photoshop debut. enjoy.
