Digital Portrait Painting

I have been doing quite a few digital paintings lately and am amazed at how similar to the "real" painting process it is becoming for me. I use a Wacom Bamboo tablet and Photoshop for my paintings. I was really surprised at how long it takes to do these paintings not that the time really has anything to do with the creative process. I really like the skin texture I can get in Photoshop with my portraits and am excited to do more experimenting with the process. The ability to do color changes is something I really like with a digital painting. I can experiment with different color combinations without having to repaint everything.
