I think I found brushes I actually like and use often. This is a good discovery.
I dunno what they're called, but when you open the brushes menu in Photoshop CS, you have the solid brushes, then the air brushes, and a very solid-like-but-not-exactly-solid set of brushes. I think I like these... when I use it together with the air brushes.
I'll still test out more brushes though. x3

No phoenix this time. But I gave him a name - Efilyth. It means absolutely nothing, as far as I'm concerned. xD; I wish I could come up with meaningful names... but I'm not that knowledgeable.

=+=+ ChARacTeR +=+=
Name: Efilyth
Occupation: Finding mythical creatures and recording info/pics of them in a book. Otherwise, a wanderer.
Hobby: Mythical creatures, lots of napping (especially outside on a nice day), doodling in his book
Personality: Very very laid back and appears stress-free most of the time. Is often found napping, even though he gets plenty of nighttime sleep. O.o Gets all childish and excited when he encounters any type of fluffy animal. The excitement gets out of control when he encounters a mythical creature. His favorite creature is a phoenix.

What the heck. xD;

Tools: Photoshop CS, tablet
