So lately I blew a huge amount of money (it was immensely painful) on a wacom tablet during the IT fair. Been wanting to try out digital art for sometime now, and a mouse just won't cut it (hand cramps, awful grip and shaky lines). Happened that just at that right moment, there was the IT fair the very next day! But no regrets anyhow; this thing is awesome, just need to get used to the difference between scratching plastic on plastic as compared to graphite on paper. Well here's the full sized project I've been doing on the tablet lately:
Decided to start something with humans, something I've never really considered doing during art lessons, partly due to the fact that humans are awfully hard to draw, one slight mistake and they look like aliens. Hopefully i'll start improving with time, before i get stuck in army ): Did a lot of referencing from this art booklet which came with the tablet (mostly from this guy called Artgerm on deviantart, a.k.a Stanley Lau. He has some really jaw-dropping stuff on his portfolio.) because i'm noob like hell with perspective for faces and such. Probably explains why mine looks almost like one of his pieces (Pepperbreeze) Shall think of some way to make it more of my own soon I guess!
Well i say money well spent. Digital art is gonna keep me entertained for a really long time.
(Makes me wanna screw architecture and take up graphic design and become a freelancer or game designer)
Indecisive. Bleh.
