Description Lol yes, I'm doing this too.

So basically, I just moved from copics/inking to digital/pencil. AND I'M STILL USING A MOUSE HAHAHA. *shot* I srsly should get a tablet. o_o;;

I think my CGing has improved slightly? (I LOVE YOU, PERSON WHO INVENTED SAI!!!)

Inking got worse. D:

.....Some of these pictures look really ugly now. D:

YES, WE BOW DOWN TO WORSHIP THE CREATOR OF SAI.

Somehow I'm more comfortable doing LineArts traditionally than digitally. I feel that I have more control over it that way. Or something. Orz.

ALL HAIL THE CREATOR OF SAIIIII!!!

Haha, same here. Maybe it's because I'm more used to doing stuff traditionally...?
But I've been linearting in SAI a lot more lately because I get to cheat and fix my lines. XDDD

*Whoreship :woship:

Haha, that too. I love my colored pencils.
And for me I find myself faster doing stuff traditionally than not.
One good point of Digital means: 'LE CTRL + Z. 8D

XDDDD

OH YES TRADITIONAL IS SO MUCH FASTER. D:
Digital takes 2~4 times as long, and my linearts take longer than the actually coloring. >__<

Yes yes. Whoever invented the undo button is a genius. *worshiiiippp*

YES, THAT RIGHT THERE. D8<
Either that or it's because we're used to Traditional medium; so we work faster. ;;
AND ABOUT THE LINEART. YEEESSSS. It's like coloring = half the time for LineArt.

It's a lifesaver, truly.

I KNOW RIGHT. I see those amazing 3 hour speedpaints and go SAY WHAAATTTT---!? DDD:

YES. THEY TAKE SO LONGGGG. D:

Erasers don't even completely erase and sometimes leave annoying, unerasable black smudges....OTL

I KNOW RIGHT. ESPECIALLY THOSE 30 MINS. SPEEDPAINTS I SEE.
FOBNGVLMLKVFMELKFMFLKM HOW DO THEY MANAGE?!

Isn't there a miraculous way to make LineArts fast? ;w;

YES YES, THERE.
Either that or it's because I draw too hard. ;; *Has a heavy hand

EXACTLY.
AND I'M, LIKE, A SUPER EPIC!SLOW PERSON WHEN IT COMES TO BOTH COLORING AND LINEART. *Sulks in a corner with hanging 'o wisp on her head

Well, I think I got a good tablet -- It's probably my wobbly hands. ;w;

;A; Ah, the woes of using a pencil.

FadingColors In reply to suzaku18 [2010-01-01 07:18:31 +0000 UTC]

YES! YES! And I draw all of my pictures at like 300% and fixate on stupid little details that don't even show up because I have to shrink all my pictures down to 50% if I want them to not kill people's CPUs. =A=;; *joins you in the corner of woe*

I think my mouse loves me. I'm getting a lot better at using it. ^^/

INORITE. And it smudges so easily...;A;

As I'm not one who posts my works at 100% and without a watermark. Orz. As if anyone would steal my works, but anyway. XD

That's great! 8D
Using a mouse is awesome~ If you get used to it, using a tablet is easy too.

AYE. D8 AND DIRTIFIES STUFF. Yes, there is no such word, but WTH.

I started CG when I was in 6th grade and I still stick with mouse >___>; I spend hundreds on my copics, but I can't seem to give up $60 for a tablet. IDK why

I started in around 9th grade. X_X

Oh wow. Now that I think about it >___>; Pretty much.
I BET YOU WERE GOOD WHEN YOU STARTED. I didn't even know what layers were when I started

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

FadingColors In reply to Kaiami [2009-12-29 03:16:09 +0000 UTC]

NOT AT ALL. Most of it was MS Paint crap, and when I started using GIMP/Photoshop, it was all burn/smudge abuse. OTL

LOL I KNOW RIGHT. I used like two layers (lineart + color) and didn't understand people who used like 100 layers. Now I use like 200. THANK YOU SAI FOR NOT KILLING MY CPU USAGEEEE. OTL

Kaiami In reply to FadingColors [2009-12-31 01:04:57 +0000 UTC]

I didn't even know what MS paint was D8; There were people who talked about it at school, and I was always like "what are you talking about IDK what that is and no I don't have paint :I"

Ohohohoh oh god orz I used to use dodge and burn for everything, because I didn't know how else to color. But a lot of shoujo mangaka that I really liked used dodge and burn, so I thought it made me more pro /12andstupid I found this thing I drew a few years back. It kind of. Burns my eyes >__>; I think that's two layers

PHOTOSHOP COMPLETELY KILLS MY CPUUU but I still use it orz

FadingColors In reply to Kaiami [2010-01-01 07:13:20 +0000 UTC]

AHAHA OPPOSITE HERE. I was drawing crap in MSPaint and got confused whenever someone mentioned Photoshop. XDDD

I abused dodge/burn so much that my people looked more like oddly shaped suns. =A=;;
At least you could draw something...all I ever did was (badly) copy other people's pictures, and when I tried to draw something on my own, it looked more like a muffin than a person. orz

I drew a 200+ layer picture in SAI and tried opening it in Photoshop. I had to restart my computer. =A=;;

YES YES HIS HAIR IS SO PRETTY I LOVE HIS PRETTY HAIR. *SHOT*

Curves tool is good because I don't have to worry about my hand slipping, but it takes a loooong time to lineart.

Yes, linearting takes so long. Linearting takes 2~3 times as long as the actual coloring for me.
