Winter Wonderland

So I'm home for the holidays, and have been distracted/bored/I have no clue. Trying to get that comic work done and hopefully it will be done and update my website and do some work I was unable to do during the semester that involves my um....life/future.

Anyways, also, thanks to my MacBookPro's keyboard breaking, I was kinda put out for a little while of a computer. Luckily thanks to the generosity of my family I was able to get a new laptop. A Tablet PC with Wacom technology, to boot! (Yay for open box specials on websites nobody remembers...and yay for price comparision websites)

When I got it I decided to test it. I took a sketch I made in one of my Moleskines and inked it using my new lappie's built in tablet in Corel Painter 11 (another new toy for me- only 18 bucks thanks to educational discounts) and colored in good ole' Photoshop.

Call it my sort of "Happy Holidays" or "Christmas" image for the year. I think it's cute. Matt and one of his sons, Charlie....who is adorable and young. Yuppp.



I love my new computer, to say it short. It's going to increase my productivity like SO much because drawing directly on screen is a little bit easier than the hand/eye coordination thing with my other tablet. (Although I'm not planning on selling anything quite yet....I like my Intuos still too).

Oh, and I like this image so much I turned in into my computer's wallpaper.



That is all. For now.
