Ahhhhh you're making me jealous. I'm pretty much handicapped when it comes to drawing/painting/digital art/anything not 3D or material-based. Tips please?

hahaha, thanks guys~!
I'm not really that good.... o.o
Well, all I can say is, patience patience! You need to be able to put lots and lots of time into digital drawings!
Also, look up tutorials, get some custom paintbrushes to download, and just find your style! It was really hard for me to find it, but I think I just did when I drew that.
I use a Bambo Pen and Touch tablet, made by wacom. If you get a tablet, get wacom. It's really awesome.
Really, I don't know what kind of tips to give... I'm still getting used to using my tablet and I got it last year, lol..... :shiny:

OH and if you have photoshop, USE IT!!!!!!!! It's MUCH better than you might think, once you get used to it!

You´re two years younger than me (according to your profile, of course), and you´re at least seven times as good as I am. Saying you´re 'not really that good' would completely crush my fragile artistic confidence, so please don´t. ^_^

Actually I am using a Bamboo Pen & Touch tablet, and I would be using the Photoshop download that came with it if I didn´t already know that the size of it would crash my laptop. :laughing:

But thanks for the advice! =)

Hmmmm wow I was obnoxious when receiving compliments back then...

Anyhow!
I'm taking a painting class in college right now (oil painting, actually) and we're required to keep a sketchbook. The sketches are supposed to take 20+ minutes each and we're supposed to do 3 a week, but I decided to go overboard, and drew this (which took probably around 2 hours, but I'm not totally sure one that) :

Spoiler:

Yup! I'm actually incredibly happy with it! (But mmmmmmmm, look at those quality cell phone pictures.... cough.)
I'll post more later~ probably my three still lifes that I had to do ... they were SO tedious! I also have a couple other sketches I'm pretty happy with.
I'm also going to look around the gallery tomorrow (I should be sleeping right now, I have a test tomorrow morning) and check out what you guys have been doing! c:
