Practice digital Painting

The feeling of not knowing how to do something related to art is a GREAT feeling. In this case digital painting is giving me some very welcomed headaches. Ive been drawing ever since I can remember and Ive learned many things over the years. But all my drawings rely heavily on line art. Im learning how to "hide" those lines lately with tutorials and my own intuition. Here is some samples. Some are really messy and others are a bit more finished and I think still need some work. I need to start moving on the the rest of the anatomy once I feel comfortable with the face.
