I just started painting a new one. It's another one that doesn't make so much sense. But here it is so far. What do you think?

Phase 2:

HOLYCRAP I'VE CONTINUED!!
http://twitpic.com/9j522

Finished!!!!

First Painting

So I finally decided to put the painting supplies everyone's gotten me to use. First piece of art I've started completely on my own. No classroom, teacher or help. Just started today. Pretty much just have the background and the main objects are still only a base coat.

The background is blues, reds, blacks and some white. I think I might get more blue and red to show better tomorrow.

Update:
This is the painting now, as you can see I filled a smaller mass. And most of the large mass. I think when I finish that little small section above the blue I'll touch up the blue and put some cloud cover over the mass. Then of course I'll fill in the core area. What do you think?

Update 2:

So I finished painting the green on each mass. Pretty much it for now. Next up, the cores.

Update 3:
So I started the red stuff on the inside of the big mass. It's turning out pretty good. Almost done, just gotta finish the others then touch up some small spots.

Update 4:
Pretty much think it's done. Not perfect, but what is? It's small this time around because it's now a link to a bigger picture so you can see it better.

So, yeah. Any critiques? Advice etc.

I'm gonna guess you thought of Pac-Man.

I'll post here because I have Mr. Pac-Man in my signature. Lol.

Also, I can barely see the red in there.

What's your painting supposed to be?

Red is there, it's just blended in with blue, black and white. So it's more purple, blues in blacks in the end. And it's not really supposed to be anything. Just a shape I drew one day that reminds me of when you open up the planet and show the core and junk. except you just just the core and one of the layers is just a bar going from one end of the opening to the other. So it's like the objects are floating in space.

I'm thinking the blue ball could use some xtra details.

Sketch out some possibilities. A little red, or some other suitable colour to fill it in just a little.

That's just the base coat. It's gonna resemble a planet-like object when I'm done with it. Blue and black aren't gonna be their final colors at all.

More progress made. What do you guys think?

I like the rainbow-like effect in the green portion of the largest sphere.

The smaller ones are gonna get it too. I just was too lazy at first with the smaller one. So, I moved on to the big one to get a better idea.

Anyways, I like the effect there on that green section...and I'll be sure to check back here to see more updates 3nodding

Funny that you say that, because the inside is gonna be reds, oranges, yellows and browns.

On another note. When I'm done with the masses, I'm thinking of bringing out more reds, and blues in the background as stated before. The painting is just getting to be too dark for my taste. But the cores are gonna be bright, so we'll see.

Edit: So, I don't double post. Update #2 up.

It's looking pretty now.

Are those white spaces temporary?
