# I did an art...
This will get printed up nicely and framed for Christmas for a friend who likes the penguins. I'm quite happy with it (I did want it to look like I actually painted it), but think it probably could be improved. It does look a bit better and more textured when not dinky and jpegged (such as the white bits on the body). Any ideas?

(Of course it could do with a big CDC, but my friend is sadly sensible...)

Hmm, still doesnt look too grand on the body... But then I'll get it printed on canvas anyway.

# Thanks - nice!
I think you've achieved that painted look well- looks like acrylic heavily applied.

Thanks very much! - Artrage tells me I used oil and then I smoothed it with a pallette knife. Took far too long for someone with no patience whatsoever...
