I suck; but I suck really good.
I've been slacking off for the last month... ah, hell I've been slacking off ever since I was a fucking embryo.
But, more to the point, I've got no excuse to have a subscribed account and not post shit.* So my sub is re-newed, and so is my... uhh... determination to create things.
I'm writing... or aspiring to write a novel. I've been writing fiction for recreation long before I could draw little more than stick figures. So really the only reason I got into art was because of my love for fiction & fantasy. With that comes character and clothing design. So you will see my fabulous characters-in-devlopment somewhere along the way.

I need some opinions/advice on some things concerning art. The comment box is your friend. But, since I, myself, don't read journals too often, I don't blame you if you're just skimming through this... or not even that.


Tablets - Yes, I want one. I've got the whole Creative Suite thing going on here, now I want to go one step further. This definately means I'll get art done much quicker, and improve tenfold. No, ok, that's an exageration. But no well-trained manga artist comes without a tablet.
Don't get me wrong - I love the mouse and the tedious art of the pen tool and anchoring, but it just takes too long. And it doesn't look arty, or natural. The pen tool is far too restrictive. I'm envious of the artists who can actually convey their natural skills through photoshop, and keep it looking like it came off a canvas. [link]
In terms of brand, I've been looking at Wacom, seeing as they're probably the most popular brand I've come across. And popular means reliable. And expensive. But I'll take reliable any day.
WacomBamboo seems fairly well-priced considering... With some of them less than $100.
So if any of you are tablet experts or you know of some dodgy brand to avoid, go ahead and give me a shout.

And it's not like you haven't heard of the WacomClintiq. I mean, who doesn't want one of those? But with a price like that...



I want to know what you want to see. This probably won't affect what I draw, but I just want to know. I'm a firm believer in drawing whatever comes naturally to the artist, so no, I won't draw what you ask me to. Unless I really like the concept.
So what do you like? Photography? Dark/emotional? Fanart? ROFLOLOL?
C'mon, I wanna know what my watchers like.

Thanks for reading/skimming/nothing!
One more thing - My resolution is 1920 x 1080, which pretty much means anything that you see - specifically the layout of this journal - will look a lot better on my screen.

*Excuse the language.






Watchers! I love my watchers.
