Starting on the HiEx stuff again...

Highly Experimental will .... I guess I'll make a production blog of it sometime soon. Here or Livejournal (as opposed to throwing it all into my everyday foolery/personal livejournal under tags). I don't know.

I'm starting to wanna put up a webcomic again just to get some story ideas flowing. Lets see how that goes. For now, I'll probably chuck around some new character art to mess with the pigma graphic pen that my pal Craig gave me back at Otakon this year.

Edit: I gave in easilly and made the blog.

EvoRelution's production bits and General art stuff I'll keep here.

I'll Illustrate YOUR CS!

I get jealous of people that can use Illustrator to ink some really faboo drawings, but I'm having such a hard time learning it. It's like Photoshop has these great stroke path/pressure options that I can't find in Illustrator (CS), and they make the lines vary in width and everything. On the other hand, Illustrator has such smooth, crisp lines while Photoshop relies on poop-smeary paint brush lines.

I've searched Google and DeviantArt, and even the MFGG for tutorials, but while I've managed to handle Photoshop's pen tool okay, I really hate their poop-smeary paint brush lines, but I just can't get those nice edges and line strokes in Illustrator and the Bakaneko tutorial talks about all these brushes that aren't present in Illustrator CS.

My gods, These things make me feel like I don't know crap about computers. I need to get the social nerve to pester RageMario since he's my idol Illustrator artist.

I love a good ice chunk-filled Caramel Frappuchino!


Here's the sketch I've been trying to practice on. Done in OpenCanvas 4.

Explanations will come later. You can check out my latest fan-artting shinannigans at my DeviantArt Gallery.
