Art Rage - first attempts

This is another retrospective post - I've done these when I was getting familiar with ArtRage.
ArtRage is a painting software, oriented towards replicating the traditional media. It mimics such paint qualities like wetness or volume, allowing for really realistic effects.
I use it most of the time, as it's also very straightforward to use. No need to spend time on set up - I can launch it and start drawing immediately - just like with pencil and paper.





Viking

That was one of my first digital paintings, done over the course of a few months really.  I was into Vikings and their contacts with Slavic tribes. This scene represents their landing at the southern Baltic coast. (belonging to Poland now). But don't expect too much historical values in this illustration... :)

First post...

For a start - a few of my digital paintings done around 5 months ago - a "Photoshop warm up".
They're all done based on photographs found on the web.
