Mulisa the Thunderbolt Guinea-Pig

This picture of my guinea-pig was painted in a program called Artweaver. My bachelor thesis topic is digital painting so I have been trying several types of painting software. I never know what to paint so this time I decided to paint my two guinea-pigs in some very funny and flashy manner I had some serious fun painting something not worrying what people would think about it That's how Thunderbolt Muliša (read mulisha) and Cloud Kuku (read kuh-kuh or short coocoo, not kaka) came to be!

Muliša is fluffy and energetic and always kicking around, that's why I used lightning as her theme. Kuku is fat and lazy and always smiling like a buddha statue, that's why I made him riding a cloud

Painting with Artweaver was hard at first, mostly because I'm too used to keyboard shortcuts which usually don't work with "not heavy commercial software". But it turned out to be an interesting software with several features I would like to see in Photoshop.
