Hi, I'm also trying to learn to draw, like I_HATE_JOHN_CALVIN, who's beautiful birbs inspired me to post some of my progress. Here's Lenin, some birbs, a predator, and some women. Been drawing with Krita everyday for 22 days so far. Everything is from reference image, not good enough to be original. Is there a thing with commies and birds what the hell CALVIN?
Yes i got a cheap tablet under a hundred dollars. It's kinda weird hand eye coordination issue at first cause there's no screen on the tablet. You draw on it but look at the monitor. But i like digital, don't need paper or materials just draw and draw and erase and draw and undo and undo try try again lol. And once you get good at how the layers and other features work it really becomes interesting. In traditional media if i made a large proportion mistake i would have to erase and start over. Here I can select and warp and stretch and duplicate and liquify and mirror and a bunch of other tricks to solve problems that might stump me on physical media.
