Another one of my boring mouse drawings that I am working on. I't far from finished. I want to give a surreal finish to it.

Hey TeAnne, them roosters are looking good, just one thing thought, detail/clarity.
Believe me I know drawing with the mouse is difficult. You're making good progress.
Remember: You're in a battle against those evil white bits created by photoshop's background.
Cheers! |

Tip about the halo (white bits):
If you draw on an empty (Transparent) layer, instead of drawing on a white filled layer and then cutting out the white with the lasso tool or the magic wand, you won't get any halo effects.
To fix this particular picture... hmm... My bet would be on the erase tool. Pick a small brush for it and erase all the white out. Then use the paintbrush to repaint over the bits which you erased. To make it quick remember that if you press ALT while using the paintbrush it turns into the color picker, so you can easily get colours from the surroundings to paint in the same colour.

Thank you Daniel ...I should have known to use no background...I feel so dumb. I am using CorelDraw and I have to figure out how to use their layers which I think, they call objects.
Anyway, thanks again.
