So it’s almost 8 years since my first time wandering the realm. So many memories and feelings. Thanks, ROTM, I’m now 32yo with a family and kid. Lol time does fly so fast.
Here is a necromancer I’ve made in 2013 and posted on Wild Shadow’s old forums.
That piece still looks decent tho, good luck on the comic story, I’m sure it’ll turn out fine! ^-^
How do I draw with a mouse? Well, adaption I suppose. Back when I first started drawing, I had an ask on Tumblr saying I should try to draw digitally. And so I did whip up one MS Paint drawing with a mouse and told them “Hah no, I don’t think I will”. But then, idk why, but it drew (pun intended) me into the world of digital art. Started drawing a ton of MS Paint art despite mouse difficulties, even started on a comic once. I guess when you’re super passionate about something, you’ll try your very best to overcome the obstacles ahead :3
I actually sketch my pieces with my tablet, and outline it using a mouse and a vector tool, and colour using a mouse because I’ve grown accustomed to using it. Let me tell ya, being capable of wielding both devices helps get things done faster The very last drawing I did entirely with a computer mouse was this. How much times have changed x)
I got my drawing tablet later that year as a Christmas present, and that’s when I did the switch~
Wow. I can definitely appreciate that you can draw so well using a mouse lol, that’s impressive.
makes me feel like a mere mortal with my finger being my only drawing tool
So, I sent my old laptop for servicing and battery replacement a few weeks ago. Before that, I salvaged every drawing I’ve done and saved it on my Google Drive for safekeeping. Scrolling through the files, I noticed 3 pieces I have never finished. These pieces were originally made about more than 6 months ago, and gosh they look really old.
I’ll likely not be revisiting them, some of these look too far gone to properly fix up, and I do not have the layer information for these pieces anymore. At least they serve as a semi-old memory~
Wooo, another character drawn! Let me tell you, that’s probably the most equipment I had drawn on any character so far. I mean, the steel fan gauntlets, the dual daggers, the forgotten crown, the dire instability prism, dang it took awhile to get it all right x)
Pfff yea I did try to draw you once, but I wasn’t really skilled enough to bring it out back then xwx"
Here’s some filler fanart for the game, Steambirds Alliance! The armoured elite noble, Commander Jinn, except instead of drawing him as the antropomorphic communist cat he is, I degraded him to a household, costume-dressing cat…
…I like how he’s Egyptian themed in the game, I’ve never tried drawing that before . w.
