Nice. I've never done anything digital. Just Pencil and charcoal. I'm just old school I guess.

Kapitan_Phillips · 01-10-08, 05:25 AM

Yeah, its tough to get the hang of, certainly. But the amount of things you can do is incredible. Thanks for having a look

It is amazing what a graphic tablet with differing pressure sensitive pencil can do with a software that simulates paintbrushes, and that even mimics the amount of paint left in the brush, and how far it spreads depending on how strong you press the pencil. I used that in PSP9, though unfortunately I am not paint artist and thus, while fascinated nevertheless, left it to some pieces of involutnary abstract modern art.

I use it for photo editing for the most.

I havent got a tablet, unfortunatley. Too expensive at the moment. All I have is the mouse and sliders

Just to be sure, I did not mean my remark as a crticism, in no way!

It just came to my mind when reading "art".

Oh of course, I'd love to try a tablet, but I'm useless drawing on paper, let alone a digital pad

Cool!

When you said 'Elementary', I was expecting something by school kids.:rotfl:

Kapitan_Phillips · 01-10-08, 07:15 PM

Thankyou for all the kind comments

I'm tempted to do some Subsim portraits if anyone's interested. Take the load off of Torplexed's shoulders

Penelope_Grey · 01-10-08, 07:27 PM

Sherlock Holmes is one of my dads fave characters.

I'd go for that!

Here's a great starter project.

Who's his favourite TV protrayal? For me there's no-one better than Jeremy Brett. I dont know which Watson I preferred however, I liked David Burkes' comic relief, but Hardwickes' chemistry with Brett

Sailor Steve · 01-11-08, 12:36 PM

Hard to say - I liked them both. But there's no doubt, Brett was the quintessential Holmes.
