Description Know the feeling? Just want to scream 'till you reach the bottom of your lungs. Just because. Life, Universe and Everything.......

NIW: I finally finally bought a Wacom. I threw away my mouse and expected life to be much easier from now on......
Guess what: a Wacom doesn't paint by itself, you still have to work hard..... In fact: it's even harder, because I was 'raised' with a mouse and now I've to learn to draw from scratch..
But after lots of screaming here it is: My 1st Wacom-experiment!
To be continued.....

Whoa, your FIRST? DAMN! lol! I've been asking around about Wacom tablets... I see that they're very small. How does that affect the size of your drawing? I mean, can a small Wacom tablet only allow you to make small digital drawings? Forgive me if my questions are weetarded, I'm very tired.

Hi there, I just got myself a wacom tablet and I know what you mean... we're so used to a mouse... that pen in your hand is pretty weird! But I'm starting to get the hang of it already...

I want to get into drawing and illustrations.... do you have any tips/links for a beginner? and what program did you use?

Thanks

wow, do I ever know the feeling. I'm still at that point where I can only use the wacom for detailed shading (hair) and sketching and using the mouse for... everything else I definitely understand this feeling

Actually, she looks like she is screaming in a pleasurable manner, certainly not out of fear.
Just wondering, is this vector art (*couldn't be, the tonal qualities are too subtle, but...*)
I have a small wacom, it is a pain, probably the size is the problem. I can do so much more with a mouse,
it is much faster and more accurate.
Nice site, nice subjects as well as great artistic expression

roes In reply to ShadowCaste [2006-04-24 20:25:04 +0000 UTC]

No, it's not vector, just pixels.. Tnx for the very kind words and I'd say: keep trying with your wacom. A mouse is allright but there's one bigdisadvantage: it's not pressure-sensitive.......

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

ShadowCaste In reply to roes [2006-04-27 03:30:12 +0000 UTC]

Ok, you say the mouse is not pressure sensitive, so what is the advantage of this feature?

Also, even though your work is not vector nothing is taken away from it, it is very nice, very well done,
hmmn, maybe I should just say, 'you are very talented', okay, it is said.

This just gave me a new signature idea. Thanks

Well..if u are used to paint with a mouse....you know it can be worse... And 'bout the steady hand.....if you practise enough your hand will go and your mind will follow... (not meaning that I'm there alredy...)

I think my mind already went, hee hee. I have trouble with my hands for various reasons, piano, typing, diaper changing for years on end...they probably just need to be strengthened. I drew with a mouse initially and did pretty good. Can't beat the precision of a pen though. Have you ever been to [link] ? It's a really fun game site sort of like pictionary, you draw, others guess, etc. Lots of talented folk there.
