Peter!

I guess I’d be a little dumbfounded too after all of that. x3

I’m not artistic in the least, but everything I’ve heard says you get gradually better just by practicing your drawing, regardless of the medium.

Keep it up!

Actually, I do like using the tablet. It just has some drawbacks. Before I was using a tablet PC which has a tiny screen so it’s really hard to see the entire page. (It was a pretty poor computer in general, too).

Now I’m using an Intuos with a desktop. My screen is bigger so it’s easier to work with the page, but I now have to look at my monitor instead of my hand when I’m drawing.

Drawing and inking by hand is something a lot of artists seem to be doing, so I thought I’d give it a try. I also bought a pad of comic book paper, so it made hand inking all that more appealing.

Every technology has its drawbacks. My real problem is that I’m still learning how to draw and keep jumping technologies in the hopes it will give me a big improvement.

I thought you weren’t a fan of using a tablet. Why the switch?

And thanks for continuing to put in the time to make the strip!

Well, the time is about the same. It’s the first time, though, that I’ve used the Intuos for inking – all the digital stuff I did before was on a touch screen laptop, so you could see the stroke under your brush as you drew it. That said, it still takes about half a day to produce a full strip, even with the shortcuts I take.

“Why yes, tell me later all about the monsters that are attracted to our cargo! That couldn’t possible be a problem on the high seas.” xD

How do you feel about the extra time needed with this latest process?

big thing to remember is that which ever shoulder the gun is being put against is usally the same hand thats on the trigger something to keep in mind for the future

I don’t think you need to worry at all about redrawing it.

Okay, I think I see it now: the problem isn’t the side of the body, but the hand being used. I don’t think I can fix that without redrawing the page, though.

I was chatting with someone else, and they said they were right handed and liked to hold it on their right side. I don’t know, I’ve never used a long gun before.

To me right handed makes more sense, since I would imagine that aiming would be more difficult than pulling the trigger. But I’m just guessing at this.
