12:30 AM. Okay.. One quick post before I go to bed. And off into Dream Land. And I guess this is my rant.. the one that I was supposed to post yesterday.. guess I just missed the deadline. Blah.. But I'll rant anyway.
#1 I just about only posted every other day this week. Blah.. #2 I've gone to bed so late every night. Believe me, this is not late.. for me. But I guess the accumulation of hours has taken its toll.. Blah. # 3 I've cranked out so many pictures that my wrist is sore.. tore? Blah.. # 4 I've been out of the loop and haven't made my rounds-- to the blogs I like to read. Blah..
One the plus side.. I bought a new jump drive for my computer. Yea!! Which means I've already consumed 256 megs on my last jump drive. Blah.. At this rate I may have to buy a new one each month. So much for my budget. What budget? The running one in my head, that registers every time I wanna shop. Blah.. I learned how to load sketches into my paint program so I can color them without having to ..Blah.. re-draw them with the mouse. Yea!! Also I learned some new techniques on masking, drawing, and painting. No more bootleg moves for me. Now maybe I can do it-to it. Yea..
Time to sign off so I can crank out one more picture and maybe get to bed before 2. Blah.. I guess I should draw a sketch but I'm too tired to do all the to-do to post it. So I guess I shall post a falling sleep picture when I wake up. Blah!!
So, in you previous sketches, you scanned in your sketch, and then went over the outlines with the mouse? It'll be interesting to see your new approach. I love how you color in your sketches - you give them this van gogh flavor. You must be a genius!

Your sketches are really showing that you are mastering this technique. Don't you want to cover the technique in a little more detail? I'm still owrking on discovering the possibiliities opened up by the stylus used in Photoshop. And, Oh! by the way, I just purchased the upgrade to Adobe CS and am very excited. (How can one get so excited over "technology?") (grins)
