Couple of sketches....

eyewoo...how did you do those...wacom + pshop?

yep! Wacom 9 x 12 and Photoshop 6... Since then, I've just installed Photoshop 7... looking pretty cool.

lookin good

Philip has inspired me. I'm gonna start mowing lawns to save up money for a Wacom (at 35 yrs old, I think I'll have a marketing advantage over the 12 yr olds).

Seriously, I've personally appreciated the contributions you have been making to the forum, Philip. I know others do as well.

I've been waiting til I do get a tablet to play with your tutorials, but alas I may just have to dive in with a mouse and see how terrible I can do. At least I'll have a built in excuse.

btw: is this a "self portrait"?

Philip,

I think I'm w/ Malibu...Gonna start saving up and buy a tablet I think...Tried painting with the mouse a few times but it gets pretty frustrating....Thanks for the inspirational work....

PS> "at 35 yrs old, I think I'll have a marketing advantage over the 12 yr olds"...lol

I've seen some pretty extrtaordinary images done with a mouse... but why???

If you're gonna spend any time making digital artwork as a realist, you gotta use a tablet...
