I hate my tablet.

February 9th, 2010

Wow, what an amazing adventure the last 9 months have been! Maybe I’ll tell you all about it one day!

So I do have some comics ready to go, but I wanted to give that tablet I bought one more try. No dice. I can’t draw on that thing. At all. It works just fine. But I’m used to pencil and pen on paper. The friction on the tablet is just not sufficient for me to draw anything that doesn’t look like it was penned by a Parkinson’s patient. I put 4 hours into tracing just five panels of the upcoming comic and that’s not even half the damn thing. And what was there would need as much touch up, if not more, than an inked scan. So fuck it! I’m going to get back to the drawing board – literally – and get this thing banged out old school!
