No, this isn't a new awesome 'drawings' topic. But instead, I have great news. ...
Wait for it ...
WAIT FOR IT ...
Fine, I'll tell you.
I no longer have to draw with a mouse! Officially! I have with me now a nice new working tablet, bamboo, out of my birthday money, and I'm damn happy! Now I just need to learn to draw things decent at least, and I'll be happy.
... Yay.
Edit: However, it's really annoying drawing on this thing. If someone could hand me some hints, it'd be much appreciated.

... Take one, of tablet drawing. Bit of a test, less than anything special.

Go to your local park ... You'll see some eviltrees wandering around. 50% Chance. If you kill one, you get an acorn minipet ...

Best I can suggest is practice. The first thing a tablet does is ruin your art, then it gets better over time once you get used to it. Once you understand just how to sue it, you'll get better fast!

Thank you

I wish I had photoshop, though. I have Gimp. But it's not as good, even if it's decent. Can't get as good effects as Veph and such for my signatures ...

Take two, of photo-ness. Will simply link if the photo's too big.
Edit; Too big.

Congratz on the tablet!
trust me, I know exactly what you mean when you say that it's annoying to use, but after a while, you'll be fine with it ^^
My advice? Practice for a bit every day, and you'll find yourself getting better with it pretty fast
I
love Gimp! It's all I've ever used ^^ You can get pretty good detail with it, but it takes a while to figure out how to

I've only been using it for about half a year and still don't know quite a bit about it, but via practice, you can do stuff like
this (yes, I did draw that myself, fully in gimp

) also try using lots of layers, it makes coloring/shading/fur and hair detail, etc. soooooo much easier!
If you need any help, feel free to PM me and I'll do my best to help

Will do. Last test here, based on a sad crab, lol. Mazak, a human paladin from my guild. Who is ICly currently a sad crab due to overdramatic RP. So yeah. Weird style on this one, my signature looks better, lol.
