My submission for the Little Honker Auction:

 

My sketch this morning.

 

Friday art show postes are always my favorite! I'm thinking of trying to do some computer drawing. What should I look for in a drawing tablet and software? I'm a budget but think me and my kids would get a lot of use out of it. My 11yr old is doing very well at drawing and loves to do it. I used to be a staight "A" art student back in the day. Any help would realy help. Thanks and keep up the awsome work!!!

 

Hey Jeff , Thanks...

Something else I squeezed in this week.

Recycled metal watch case. Stripped the white vinyl and brass trim. Painted satin black and laser etched the auto graphic.

 

I've always enjoyed that rearend view - Nice Merc too.

 

Hey man
Check out a Wacom tablet. Not cheap, but worth it. And Photoshop is my choice. Slim

 

Went out to the shop and picked up some customcory floor scraps again. As always, great show everyone.

 

That black coupe in the front just does it for me... Dang, I can't wait to get home and work on the Model A.

 

heres a few from my collection.

 

Jeff you are amazing...get back to work you have deadlines to meet...

 

Yep wacom tablet is the right stuff for computer drawing... I'll go further... The cintiq ( I got a 12wx, my best computer buy EVER ! ). Photoshop is excellent too, of course but with your tablet you will have a drawing / painting software for free, like "painter classic"...
You can also find free painting softwares that are awesome, like "sai painting tool".
Traditional wacoms are quite hard to handle in the beginning, because you are watching your screen and not your pen, that's why cintiq is way easier and pleasant to use!

About you kids, (and for you to if you want) there is an excellent free software on the Nintendo DS lite (not on later DS) called Colors!
The DS screen is kinda small but still possible to have fun with that...

some Colors! artworks I did:













Colors! also available on Iphone.
