cemetary-land

I finally got a tablet. Hooray for late Christmas presents! I am now the proud owner of a Wacom Bamboo. I was honestly a little scared to get it, because I thought it was going to be really hard to learn how to use, and that I'd have to relearn everything. But, after three hours of owning it, it's easier than I ever could have imagined. Granted the only thing I've done is write my name and paint a sphere, but I figured it was best to start small. The sphere turned out pretty well. It was a bit hard to shade at first, but after about five minutes it was easier than it ever was with a mouse. Well, that's basically my rant. Just wanted to share my tablet owning elation with the world.

I've almost finished a new digital painting. It's an Alice in Wonderland concept (Oh no! Another Alice in Wonderland?). Well this one has a bit of a twist. Hopefully everyone will like it. I'm pretty nervous about it. It has a lot of things I've never done before, and it's the busiest painting I've done so far. But, how will I learn to do new things if I don't try right? It should be finished in the next few days.

I made my first new manipulation in ages. I hadn't manipulated anything in so long, I was honestly a little worried I'd be rusty. However, I really like this one. I found it very interesting combining painting and manipulation. So, while it is overall a manipulation, there are a few painted aspects to it as well. Hopefully, everyone enjoys it. I love getting comments, so feel free.

My first digital painting. Charlize Theron from Aeon Flux. Give your opinions?

I don't really do manipulations anymore, but I'm still proud of the ones I've done in the past. So, today I went to my old account, saved my manipulations, and decided to upload my favorites. I have added all of them yet, hopefully I'll add more tomorrow or maybe even tonight. But comments are always welcome (on both my manipulations and drawings) as are opinions on improvements.


Please do not take my manipulations
I used to let people use them for layouts, or whatever they may want to use them for, but I really don't want them used anymore. So please do not use them, for any reason. My drawings and manipulations are © Copyrighted to me.
