First Real Digital Painting

[heybri]

Hello all,

This is my very first attempt at digital painting without the use of line art.

What I mean by that is usually I would do something with line art, and then color it. And I have wanted to break free from this for a while, but was always unsure of how to start.

So I just went for it and the picture below is the result.

I wanted to get critique from others more comfortable and practiced with line-less painting. Any kind of heads up, critique, practicing techniques, or better ways to go around doing this type of painting would be greatly appreciated. I just want to make sure I'm on the right road and improve as I go along.

Thank you. :-)
