My Tablet Art (IMG Heavy)

Unread post by Chimera »

Im proud of it <3 My knowledge of photoshop currently only consists of where Paint, Erase, and Zoom is so its a really rough sketch and its blue.. didnt know where the color palette was.. XD Took me a fair while after i drew it to discover that i can erase the white background with the eraser which was really cool, it was just an instantaneous erase which was awesome.

Im having so much friggin fun with my tablet ive decided to post everything i finalize ^^ These are myofficially done and saved pieces of work so far~ Im always updating so keep checking in incase i make something new :3

My character Chimera... I forgot the horn rings in the right horn and the face scars tho.. (i'll have to remember to add them in next time i draw him..)

Yaay! Looks like you're getting the hang of that tablet faster than I did. xD And wow, your sketches are so much cleaner than mine. Mine are always an ungodly mess.

Figuring out layers doesn't take long, and that'll help a ton, too. (By the way, you change the color you're using by first finding a little pair of boxes, one whatever color you're using and one white, and clicking the color one. That will allow you to choose a new color.

Yea im gonna open photoshop again and dig around for different tools and the color palette, it sits on the left bottom corner with a black n white box for showing the ink colors in use but theres nothing in the corner and going through all the drop down lists above with all these different options are just a weeeeee bit overwhelming right now XD

I can relate. xD When I got Photoshop CS5 I ended up not knowing where to find half my old tools. I'm still confused about where to find a few things.

Ive screwed around with the tablet and paint.net, its not my very very first attempt, but its the only one that actually looked like anything that wasnt a jumble of lines balled up together, the programs i had before the tablet dont respond well to the tablet so im gonna learn photoshop and maybe check out what corel has so i can try and do digital art that actually looks nice ^^ Whats killing me is that i still cant really do the type of drawing i do on paper with the tablet, it gets all those crazy messy lines you see on the wings and the eraser tool doesnt clean em up as well as id like it to
