Finding a silver lining?

At the suggestion of a few, I'm gonna try to post more interesting things. And what better way than with a somewhat mild burst of inspiration!

So some, or a couple of you know I own this:

Well, my new tablet pen came in! Cost 50 bucks, after enough ebay-surfing (previously I could only find it for no less than 75-80 bucks.). For those who didn't know, after dropping, spilling and just general wear and tear, the pen pretty much died on me. I was unable to do any art and considering I have no room nor decent area for traditional art, I haven't felt rather inspired to do anything there.

Aaaanyways, before I go to work today, I did this little number in SAI:

This is Xeon. He's a character of mine, and one of the two that will be in the game I'm working on. Currently it's titled Project Zel. Not sure what the final name of the game is gonna be.

In other news, I got sculptiris. I'll be trying some stuff out with that soon.

Sculptris is awesome. I can only imagine what it'd be like to use with a good tablet…

Tablets are awesome. And I'm seeing more and more tablets coming closer to match the quality of Wacom, without hitting their prices - I forgot the name of one but for a medium size, it's like $50 USD, and one artist that I've worked with says that he's had no problems with them.

Yiynova also has a screen tablet that's 17 inches, but also only a fraction of the cost of the Cintiq (600 vs 2000)+

Now if I could just find enough time to use my tablet.

I'm like an unconcerned parent.

I love it, but don't care enough.

I have two. I'd just give away the other one probably, lol.

Also I discovered those Yiynova screen tablets like a few months ago, and reaaaally want one… But I can't see any actual benefits from it. Ugh.

I'm jealous, I just got a wacom bamboo…

Already envious of a better version of my drawing tablet.

Grats.

Had a graphire. Glad I own an Intuos now though. XD You either seem to love graphire or hate it.

And how does one pic of a lizard like… thing make me a scalie? You guess right but… how? :P
