I printed a picture and taped it to my Wacom tablet then traced over the outlines and painted it. It was an exercise in using the paint tools so the tracing is okay for this one. The bic lighter in another painting was from scratch looking at the lighter on my desk. (Still life painting) And the spiderman drawing was from looking at a DVD cover and drawn by hand. And the chick in KT's thread about indiglo semester was done by hand looking at a random photo found on google.
