I need to squeeze very hard because the level pressure sensitivity doesn't seem to work correctly. Result: my wrist aches after 5 minutes using the tablet :x

Moreover, I have a recurrent problem with tablets: I have a very poor eyes/hand coordination. It's extremely difficult for me to look at the screen if my drawing hand is elsewhere.

So I'm looking for tips and advice about good reliable and affordable tablets. A screen tablet would be ideal for my problem, but considering the price, I'll never be rich enough to afford one, lol.

I'm so impatient to be able to draw again on my computer, PS misses me :p

It's been a long long time I wanted to subscribe here, now done! ^^

I've got a lot of work recently with the scanlation team, and trying to get a good job, so I don't have much time to spend painting on my computer u_u

[BUT!] My techniques are getting better these times and I'm trying to find interesting ideas, and also trying to make my linearts as clean as possible so as to try :iconyuni: 's wonderful colouring technique here:
[link]

So I'll be back as soon as I can with brand-new paintings!

Luv ya all! :blowkiss:

PS: I'm currently repainting the characters' hair in Le Baiser, it looked crappy ¤_________¤

PPS: Anybody going to Japan Expo in Paris on the 5th of July? I'll be there, so if some want to meet me there...

]]> ~UtopiaGlam Alter Ego project ^^ http://UtopiaGlam.deviantart.com/journal/16560548/ http://UtopiaGlam.deviantart.com/journal/16560548/ Fri, 25 Jan 2008 02:19:35 PST
So, even though nobody reads my journal, I wanna warn you all that within the next weeks (and maybe months), my deviations will quite always be about the Alter Ego project.

Some of you have already met my character Nikita, and you'll soon meet Lou, Soraya, Soizic and Noé, and maybe others that we haven't invented yet. I say 'WE' because it's a original yaoi fiction my friend Natsuko embarked me on.

The whole project (if possible) will be on my y!Gallery [link] because I think I'll draw some hot scenes, but what's not pornographic will be here too, so don't worry if you're not especially fond of yaoi and all that stuff, you won't be put apart ^^

Today's a special day 'cause I just convinced my guy to offer me a graphic tablet! A cheap one, yeah, but not too bad according to customers. And this is good news for me and for you. At the moment I'm having a very very hard financial time, but surprisingly I turn everything artistic I touch into gold, so I'll try to keep riding this wave as long as possible and work hard on future projects which, I hope, you'll appreciate ^^

Hugs :hug: to you all!

/!\EDIT/!\: I got the graphic tablet yesterday and spent the night on my first attempt: a random bishonen for my friends lol. Yeah I know, he's ugly, but I'm quite proud because it's not so bad for a first one ^^

Uto.

The photos are bad, I'm sorry. These are big formats and I can't manage to find a huge scanner... well, not yet :)
The brightest colours faded away on the photos, but please, comment and feel free to ask questions.

In the end, you need to choose the next 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "You are tagged" in their devPage comments and tell them to read

4. I'm attracted only by guys with long wavy hair and sparkling eyes.
5. I can't leave anyone indifferent, especially at work, either you love me or you hate me.
6. I'm getting so used to writing and speaking in English that now, most of the time, I think in English.

Don't say what you do

But dance if you feel like it"

Ne dis pas que tu danses

-me when I was 2
-my (gone) soulmate
-how I draw
-how I write
-how I take photos...

But you haven't seen my real artwork yet because I'm used to painting on big formats (65x50cm) and I won't change it because I need much room to paint well...
Anyone got an idea? Maybe I can find some place where I can make reduced high-quality photocopies... You'll know it soon.

Je viens de remarquer qu'il y a ici pas mal de mes petits compatriotes, ça me fait bien du plaisir surtout qu'ils sont assez doués! Perso, mes entrées resteront "artisanales" puisque je n'ai pas beaucoup de matériel, que mon scanner vient de claquer, que mes pinceaux ont fait la guerre et que j'aime pas passer des mois sur une peinture.
