Decided to can one of the pieces I was working on (way above my skill level), shifted focus onto another piece (Hint: it's a continuation to something already in my gallery). Although I'm still figuring out tricks with GIMP, I made a lot of progress with it. Still, I do this DA stuff at my leisure so I have no idea when it will be complete, usually I try to do a little here and there and some day I spend more time than others depending on my interest level...... I have a short attention span.
My goal with DA is to one day shift to some kind of poser program, if I can get skilled with something like that, the possibilities are endless.
