I use a tablet and switch between Paint Tool SAI and Photoshop CS6 for my art.With so many great artists in here I was just wondering, how do you make your drawings digitally? Are you using some sort of electronic drawing pad? Any applications you use or would recommend for a beginner? I don't have any drawings to post but seeing all the nice art from everyone has gotten me interested in giving it a shot!
As another art form, I do like music a lot though and just thought I'd share a random song I wrote (forgive me, it's not FF related though):

SAI is pretty darn good. You should give it a try!

While we're asking art advice; I know it's probably pretty tacky to ask to steal a palette, but I've always had a really hard time with skin tones (Yeah, I know I'm not the only one). I don't suppose any kind-hearted individual has a nice skintone palette lying around or knows where I can find one that would help me get a better feel for it?
Also, thanks for pointing out SAI, I had not heard of it, but I'll definately look into it as well.
I would definitely recommend a drawing pad of some kind, mice can only get you so far. (tablet, though if you can shell out the money for it, a screen tablet for sure.) Also, though I mainly draw for digital work, knowing to work by hand is great for practice.With so many great artists in here I was just wondering, how do you make your drawings digitally?

I use either Manga Studio EX 4, or Photoshop CS5. Don't be too concerned with version numbers, they update like the dickens.(Though newer Manga Studio versions come with cropping, which is welcome.) There are also free options such as GIMP.

*posting so you'll see the signature again*Pretty much this, moving from Hyperion -> Ragnarok in hopes of being able to do endgame stuff at my timezone instead of having to play at 3-5am. Going to miss the people in (and outside of) my LS, but otherwise I might end up quitting completely <.<
P.S.: damnit Coris, your sig makes me stare at it endlessly >.< ;; (and i haven't even watched games of thrones)
pahaha!
Here's the related scene: "One word and I'll hit you again."
Re-watched some more scenes and came to think that Jaime looks strange without a beard o.o
by the way... <.< >.> we're looking for members *whispers*

Mew, this one took a bit of effort. lol
Ifrit from FFVIII doing his signature move, with my little flare mixed in. XD

Back, now i'm going to be the lazy person and take forever to look through the 600+ photos.
Be prepared though, i'm not going to hold back on the prairie dog shots. They were pretty dang cute. XD
600+ photo's and you were only away for a few days? (O_O; ) I thought i made a lot of pictures (800 of them) during my 7 day vacation in Mallorca. (^_^; )
Credit goes to Niqo'te for her fabulous art in the "Nique's happy fun time!"-thread and Nix/Capa for the Caitlyn drawing to the right. \(^_^ )/
Give her your support by liking their art!
We had a family outing.
My mother is a professional photographer. Well, prof is a strong word maybe, she has a degree, but doesn't work much. It's more of a hobbie..that she went to school for. Don't you love art degrees?.
Back to topic. She took shots of everything she liked, and those at different angles etc. And then I took a few myself.
It is funny though, I didn't really know we had a place like Devil's Lake* only 2 hours away ^^, beautiful area. Definitely going back sometime whenever I can. We hiked all day and couldn't get through all the trails.
She took way more than me of course. But we used the same camera so i'm not sure who's is who's. Still haven't started and Wolverine opens at the theater later today so i'm not sure if I should start.... /lazy
I'm going to sit here in my chair for awhile though. I'm not even in "bad" shape and i'm hurting.
*Yes, yes it is called Devil's Lake. Creepy name I know. Even creepier is that it keeps getting bigger and bigger swallowing small town whole.
