Yours is really powerful and the Lara you made looks exactly like the one in game in my opinion ! I really don't understand why you weren't picked this artwork is gorgeous
The only time I use the oil brush is if it's thinned, try setting the pressure to 50%, thinners to 88% and loading to 100 and you'll see what I mean. It creates a "build up" effect as you paint, the default settings puts way too much paint and either digs into your paint or creates undesirable impasto.
Try adding a new layer, adjusting the layer's texture setting to use "cel", then use your watercolor brush on that layer. I love that tool because it picks up the color underneath and blends, if your paint gets too washed add another layer and keep adding. I used this process on Lara's face to get the smooth painterly areas and blood/smudges.
I use the art brushes in the sticker tool a lot for texturing but if you play around with the settings you can actually mimic brushes you're familiar with in programs such as Photoshop. Here's a nice tutorial on custom brushes in ArtRage, [link] if you follow the basic guidelines you can start customizing your own brush to do some really unique stuff.
There's more to this program than people give it credit for, it's pretty powerful if you spend time in it. Hope this helps
