Thanks guys. I'm thinking this morning that Russell could still use another two hours work. He looks bit 'ruddier' than I remember. (Bad naval pun)
Kapitan Phillips. Dude you gotta get a wacom tablet. I can't imagine using Painter or SketchBookPro without one. Even the 4x5 size would probably be useful. Given the deplorable state of the dollar maybe you could pick one up cheap while yer here. :hmm:
Of course, now they have those hot Cintiq graphic tablets where the image you work on is on the tablet, not on the monitor. I've seen amazing work done with those. I just don't fancy a $900 hole in my wallet quite yet.:p
