When I sat down today, being home from work due to a nasty cold, I find that my sketchbook is filled. Again. Naturally, I look through my other sketchbooks to see if I can find at least a single page to doodle/draw on. Nothing.
Given that I have to draw at least 10 minutes every day, I realize that I'll just have to bite the bullet and use my tablet. I don't use it very often since I don't like it, but 10 minutes are 10 minutes, and I figure practice with it might even get somewhere.
I didn't get anywhere, but for being a fairly quick sketch (one thing I do like about digital drawings are that you can work in layers and it's so much cheating but damn you can get a clean sketch) I'm satisfied. If I wanted to continue I'd probably clean up the lines somewhat, and the face/hair area needs reworking; after that I'd start working on shadows, of which there should be plenty in this model (given the POV is slightly above her).
Oh yeah, and it's NSFW, if nudity is an issue. (also, silly me for not defining a larger area to work with)
The program I use is called "Paint Tool SAI", which is probably my favourite program to use when doing simple stuff. It's not as realistic as Corel Painter (which I also like), but if you know you're not gonna put down too much time/effort on something, SAI works well enough.
Oh yeah, I also found one of my old hand guides (saved from god knows where). Beware, it's fairly long and in Japanese - but maybe the illustrations can help some.
tl;dr: azazel hates working with tablets, posts failed sketch to explain why
Also, I can't draw breasts. Hands and breasts (and feet) are God's joke on mankind.
