Love the opaque and vibrant characteristic that the colors offer, the texture very smooth, they are like between watercolors and gouache, make them perform for detailing, seem suitable with my style.
Try to practice mechanical subject, and I choose the famous subject, of course, robot.
Today, I would like to share the step by step how I draw using Corel Painter, the reason I used this magical software is, there are more closed to the traditional technique, more artistic and wonderful variety of brush variants the program offers.
Usually, I only make this 7 steps, enough, I didn’t make of tutorial or something like that, didn’t want to teach you to do this and that (in fact, I still in learning process), just want to share, if you want to draw, draw from your inner heart, that better…
Step 1:
I start out by making a rough sketch at new layer, build the simple structure. I often use simple airbrushes.
Step 2:
Then I add basic color using difference layer.
Step 3:
Make structure more solid and start to build the background.
Step 4:
Touch up a little bit. Create a new layers for the fire ball and stone.
Step 5:
I create more details using oils and digital watercolor and focusing on the relationship between light and shadows.

Who else more qualify than top Chess Grand Master to talk about chess? Let’s see what they say about Chess, most of them are Chess Artist;
I consider chess an art, and accept all those responsibilities which art places upon its devotees.
Alexander Alekhine
Chess is the art of analysis.
Chess is the art which expresses the science of logic.
Mikhail Botvinnic
Chess is mental torture. Garry Kasparov
Chess is everything: art, science, and sport. Anatoly Karpov
Chess is like a language, the top players are very fluent at it. Talent can be developed scientifically but you have to find first what you are good at.
For me, chess is not a profession. It is a way of life, a passion. People may feel that I have conquered the peak and will not have to struggle. Financially, perhaps that is true; but as far as chess goes, I’m still learning a lot! Viswanathan Anand
Chess is like body-building. If you train every day, you stay in top shape. It is the same with your brain – chess is a matter of daily training.
Vladimir Kramnik
A strong memory, concentration, imagination, and a strong will is required to become a great chess player.
Chess is life.
Chess is war over the board. The object is to crush the opponent’s mind.
Chess is a matter of delicate judgement, knowing when to punch and how to duck.
Bobby Fischer
The best indicator of a chess player’s form is his ability to sense the climax of the game.
Boris Spassky
In my games I have sometimes found a combination intuitively simply feeling that it must be there. Yet I was not able to translate my thought processes into normal human language.
Tal Mikhail
I have frequently stated that I regard chess as an art form, where creativity prevails over other factors.
Vasily Smyslov
Chess is something more than a game. It is an intellectual diversion which has certain artistic qualities and many scientific elements.
Jos Ral Capablanca
By some ardent enthusiasts Chess has been elevated into a science or an art. It is neither; but its principal characteristic seems to be – what human nature mostly delights in – a fight.
Emanuel Lasker
Chess is not for the faint-hearted; it absorbs a person entirely. To get to the bottom of this game, he has to give himself up into slavery. Chess is difficult, it demands work, serious reflection and zealous research.
Wilhelm Steinitz
Those who think that it is easy to play chess are mistaken. During a game a player lives on his nerves, and at the same time he must be perfectly composed.
At the late 1996, I was influenced by amazing comic ‘Dragon Ball’ like other child at the time, I collected everything, start with comic, sticker, card, video (yeah, VCR before VCD take over), poster, vinil etc. I really enjoyed reading his manga, he introduce me about the manga world, at the time, I tell myself, I want to draw like Akira Toriyama, I think, I’m not the one, even Masashi Kishimoto idolizing him, this my fan art for my favorite move, fusion!
