The news was light today and I haven't installed any new software in a couple of days, so I decided to actually use the Surface Pro for a change.
I'm not a 2d artist, I just play one on this blog. But what I like about these two images is how different they are aesthetically despite both being created in Manga Studio.
For #PortraitNovember, I used one of Ray Frenden's soft pencil brushes for this quick sketch of my daughter.
One of my former colleagues posted a very attractive photo of herself on Facebook this morning and Tex Avery's howling wolf cartoons sprung into my head. So I tracked down a shot from one of the shorts and used it as an excuse to practice inking and flat coloring.
The Yiynova tablet monitor I received earlier this week has a defect and is being replaced, but before it died I began working on this image of the granddaddy of superheroes The Shadow. The image I was using as reference is on a Kindle HD 8.9 and the Surface Pro 2 is off-screen powering the Yiynova.
