Poe and Company. And a flash experiment.





I like that scribbly pen thing of Edgar Allen Poe. The coloured one was a particularly frustrating flash experiment wherein I discovered that there is apparently no flash-equivalent of "lock transparency" or "magic wand" which is lame. If anyone happens to know about these things feel free to fill me in =)

From Friday



Doodled a lot on Friday and decided to do some colour experimentation. I want to go for a water-coloury indistinct look without it becoming... blurry I guess is the term. Kind of furious at my scanner. I know my line ain't the best in the world but the my scanner isn't helping the problem at all with it's choppy lameness. Consumers beware. Never buy a printer/scanner 2-in-one. It ain't the bargain it seems!

Collected doodles




Collected doodles. The fat guy started out as a drawing of Slughorn from Harry Potter but kind of snowballed into something else entirely.

The Sad Death of the Vinyl Winston


Was doodling with May the other day and doing some "design challenge" style stuff and I handed him a note that said "What is the Sad Death of the Vinyl Winston?" It's not a reference to anything I just thought the words sounded cool together. So I had some time today to doodle something that I thought might be The Sad Death of the Vinyl Winston

PainterX


What I learned about painter: painter doesn't like to paint small. It appears to be large filesizes or nothing. Tried another painting of a fat guy eating popcorn and as far as I can figure it's impossible to detail anything that I zoomed in to. Small brushes don't seem to affect the painting. Big brushes do. Go figure. I'm sure there's some function that lets me do itty bitty stuff but darned if I can find it.

Also the Devil May Cry fansub is available online. It looks really cool but the writing is terrible which is not helped by the comically incorrect translation.
