magezhilo Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 @togekite:> I started messing with my new Wacom Intuos 4 today and I must say, I really like the darned thing.That's the same graphics tablet I have :)Well, for 2 weeks of learning it's not bad. The only advice I can give is the only advice I have for any artist, study anatomy and draw from life when you aren't studying. Oh, and don't try and speed through your progression. Go at a steady pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
togekite Posted June 18, 2010 Author Share Posted June 18, 2010 Aren't you the doode doing the concept art Elandor? :cheesy:I'm one of the music composers, nice to finally meetcha! And of course thanks for the advice. Studying anatomy was one of the first things I did before ever getting on the paper, actually. The only problem is that there are some disparities between realism and manga, and I like some balance on both. My interest in American cartoons doesn't help much either :evil:btw, what do you mean by "speed through your progression" ? Do you mean like uh…trying to skip around with my focus or something? iono if that made sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Crusade Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I LIEK FIRST ONE LOLI myself thought about getting into drawing with a tablet, I even have a graphics tablet. However, I never really enjoyed drawing by hand, I guess you can call me a fan of pixelling with the mouse, or otherwise; other things like 3d modelling. Plus it's hard to learn so many things at once when I have not too much time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean like uh…trying to skip around with my focus or something? iono if that made sense.I've seen some people look at other artists and want to be as good as they are as quickly as possible, so they rush through studies and draw all day. The problem is that most of the time I see those people just get frustrated and quit drawing for awhile, I'm just saying don't get obsessed :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My younger cousin's making that mistake already, and it's frustrating to look at the results, really. This isn't something I get obsessed with though. Like I said, I'm more passionate about music.

Lukin Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Looks nice. I got a Tablet too, just bought a crappy one to start with to see if I got interested in it. I sucked. Hard. It's a Trust tablet, pretty big for the price but yeah, I draw way better with a paper and a pen than my tablet. Not sure if it's the tablet or me that's fucked up. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azkanan Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 My mother bought me a £20 graphic tablet for christmas a couple of years ago. It's light, plastic and felt so rough and horrible. You could hear the plastic pen nib scraping loudly against the tablet. Just… horrible.It just so happened to be a "Trust" tablet... But, on the other hand, I have the best mouse I've ever had from Trust and still have it. It has eight buttons on it - EIGHT. Zoom, Prev/Next, Left, middle, right and a DPI to switch to slower movement.I need one of these smoothly designed Wacom beasts for $470\. That shit looks epic. The customizable buttons are awesome. I need a little button pad with an array of customizable macros and, anyway. Good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
