Horse Shit!

Sorry about the language, but it makes a pretty great title, right? Well anyway... here's a sketch that started off as just some doodle nonesense in my notes, but I ended up using it to try out a couple of programs I'm learning to use. Follow along cause this will be fun!
Heeeere weeeee goooooo!


Here's what started out as my weird pencil sketch. I think I had that song stuck in my head. You know the one? "Put me in coach, I'm ready to play... today... hooray" something like that.


This is where I tested out my new illustrator skills. I'm finally learning to use the pen tool and different ways to digitally ink my drawings with illustrator. All thanks to a class I'm taking in school. I guess school is pretty cool... well I'll be a monkey's butt. :/


Oh yeah? Well school didn't teach me Jack DANIELS about this program! This is me trying to learn how to use Corel Painter. It's cool, but it's freaking hard. There's too many brushes slash paints slashes options and for someone who hasn't painted since ever, it's a pretty hard program to make friends with. I'm not done with this one yet, but I just wanted to post it in case I never get around to finishing it. I wish I could take a digital painting class or something. Or at least just hook up to that machine from the matrix that taught Neo kung-fu. ...maybe some day... maybe the one day!

OK peace be with you.
