I'm finally taking more steps to work with tablets and drawing more.The latter I wasn't doing because of all time I was working on the box any other moment in my life was Church, food, or sleep (yes I still do that). The former I didn't want to do because of the hand-eye cooridination fears and the lack of room for all those images (why does Photoshop or computers in general have to make good quality images that aren't even letter size so huge?)...Well now that I have a portable 0.5 TB hard drive I'm not so worried about file space and am actually getting used to methods of sketching on a wacom and with the software offered! Hopefully I can start learning digital paint which isn't taught at our school (the traditional methods are eventhough this is a commerical-based college :P !) and be able to render more stuff that I post here . So far what I have to work on are getting perfect circles, concrete outlines, and complete drawings....
Oh and here's an extra still from a flash short I'm making for a in-entire-class-movie project (animation to come shortly...like at the end of the month):
Do you think I need to go into more detail on these boards? How do you work with a horizion line when you can't even fit the tablet onto your desk, keyboard, and monitor?
I am looking at a computer animation program from a chain of art schools. They have an online program offered through one location. The price tag is pretty hefty for a virtual school! It would pay off the mortgage on a starter home in some markets. Think I'll stick to my pen and paper. ; )
The schools in it for the money...it mainly applies for those online schools, the "get your degree in two months!" schools, and trade schools which specify in usually one expertise (cosmetics, Rx, Barber, photography, etc...)
I usually draw on paper first then scan. Once scanned I go to my tablet and complete the drawing in Photoshop..maybe if you do your starting work on paper that'll solve horizon problems and such.

anyway, tghe horizon does sound rather difficult.
