first tablet sketch

Well chirone....I found out I have an eraser...bahahahahaha (evil laugh). This is my first sketch...crappy..but still its a learning curve. Any tips WHERE my tablet should be...I have it to the right of my lappy ATM, it seems weird? I really havent got the room to put it directly below the keyboard..where I assume it should be?

I havent drawn for years...the last one I think was my tattoo..so forgive me for my completely horrible effort.

cheers bullet


A;pologies...I just realised I posted in the wrong area. I suppose I cant move it?

LOL yeh it had me fuming!!!! but it was a case of 'eerrrr wrong program douche!!' bahahahahaha. I was trying to use it in Paint...not PS. As soon as I went to PS or Corel 4...it worked...god Im an idiot.

Aw shucks..thanks mate...it has been a while..Im shithouse with humans. Im a good reproduction sketcher..not so off the top of the head..though I CAN do it if I really try. I get diappointed quickly so give up. I will try and find my sketch file during the week and post in the 2D what I di with a real pencil. Not much better but at least Im used to a pencil...its a bit hard with the tablet.

Yeah, very nice sketches indeed. You've got some real drawing potential.

Bamboo Touch......no I havent gotten used to it yet mate...still havent worked out where to position it that is comfortable and practical.

It is interesting...just a matter of using it more often I think?

Thanks...I thought they were pretty poor, I used to be able to draw...dunno now though...brain stuck in Surveyor mode I think. LOL
