bamboo fun has 512 levels of pressure and has 2000+ lines per inch...half of wacom intous 3...

i think graphire is the old one right?

semaj007 In reply to parascythe04 [2009-03-03 08:05:52 +0000 UTC]

Yep! I think in terms of price, its Bamboo, then Graphire and the best is Intuous but yeah, Graphire is older.

semaj007 In reply to parascythe04 [2009-02-14 15:14:50 +0000 UTC]

i cant really remember but i usually start working at 6x8 @300dpi. Sometimes i do crop it down and sometimes i increase the canvas if needed. But its always 300dpi.

parascythe04 In reply to semaj007 [2009-02-16 01:58:04 +0000 UTC]

ok thanks! maybe i have to increase mine ive never gone above 100dpi..hehe

semaj007 In reply to parascythe04 [2009-02-16 02:08:06 +0000 UTC]

haha. you should bro! 300 dpi allows you to do real small details especially if you plan to draw full bodied figures. if its juz 100dpi, the details (especially on the face) gets pixelated.

Dont worry i used to do the same thing you did thinking it was juz the same.

parascythe04 In reply to semaj007 [2009-02-16 02:20:40 +0000 UTC]

exactly! by the way, greenlatern fan art contest is now extended until feb.22

i will be a first time user of a wacom tablet...is it ok to use a 512 levels of pressure? i know most of the tablets now are at 1024 levels of pressure... how about you? what level of pressure do you prefer or are you using?

thanks!!!

semaj007 In reply to parascythe04 [2009-02-16 02:53:47 +0000 UTC]

congrats on getting a tablet man! You're gonna love it!

As for the pressure, im not exactly sure what pressure level im using but i think its the factory setting which is around in the middle. Bottomline is, its down to your preference bro. Some like it sensitive but some like em really loose.

One advice though, dont make it so that you have to press hard coz the tip of the pen gets worn down. mine has become half of its original length!

this progression is enjoyable to peruse, for me even moreso than your main piece~!
love those closeups:}

best of luck in that contest~!

semaj007 In reply to Presteza [2009-02-03 13:10:00 +0000 UTC]

Thanks A! Really need all the luck i can get. Im glad you enjoy the POW and details.

BTW, i think im gonna do the pool/mob boss scene... the water and scenery and naked chicks seem like a good challenge! ALthough it might be a lot more probably due to the number of characters drawn and the BG. Is it ok with ya? How many max supporting characters will i do?

Presteza In reply to semaj007 [2009-02-03 21:32:29 +0000 UTC]

hey that's wonderful~!
oh, as many supporting cast as you please~! I'm good for that. ya rly.
The main point is that you enjoy the composition, and I want you to not feel constrained by any limits.

semaj007 In reply to Presteza [2009-02-04 07:16:11 +0000 UTC]

Thanks A! Well, you said it was some sort of pool party so.. yeah. I think im gonna have fun with this but at the same time one of the most challenging too coz of the water (which i dont do) and the amount of background stuff and characters i gotta include.

Presteza In reply to semaj007 [2009-02-04 12:19:46 +0000 UTC]

fantastic, I know you enjoy a challenge:}
Note me if there are any questions, or if you want any of the details narrowed down.

semaj007 In reply to Presteza [2009-02-04 14:28:59 +0000 UTC]

Ive actually done a few sketches but i always end up with something looking flat... If i do it in an angle like from above, the mob boss cant be seen and if its the other way around, its Ala that's gone. So it has to be straight on.. hope you're ok with that bro. But if you got ideas, id all ears!

Presteza In reply to semaj007 [2009-02-04 23:40:36 +0000 UTC]

hm, you could draw any point in time from that scenario ..
I had in mind an underwater scene, looking up from below at the most dramatic moment, that is ~ will be tricky with water effects tho~!
It's meant to be nighttime but the place will be brightly lit up ~ you can make it day if you like, but a night scene might make it easier to blur/avoid elements above water.

ah, like I said, don't feel limited by anything~! there is no need to show everything or everyone~!
and you could instead draw a before- or after-action pic, will also be cool & fun.

semaj007 In reply to Presteza [2009-02-05 05:08:05 +0000 UTC]

i had a "during" one in mind. I wanted an angled shot but... nah, i guess ill juz have to draw it and let you see when i can make it work. I think it should be a night scene as most parties are given in the evening and it would be easier for Ala to do her deed cloaked in darkness.

Haha! I did plan out to put Wolverine there in my stickfigure sketch but i chose to do Hulk and Thor completely juz in case i may run out of time but since i had enough, i added my favorite mutant.
