Tim Drake - Colors
I wasn't up to drawing tonight but I didn't want to sit around doing nothing so I decided to give coloring a shot. The tablet & pen are starting to become familiar to me, so I'm going to try more color pieces in the future~

First digital drawing!

Finally got around to drawing on my tablet. I've done inking plenty of times, but I was too inexperienced and impatient to keep going with it so I let my tablet collect dust and stuck with drawing/inking traditionally.

Well, after some time, and buying a laptop and becoming fully dependent on staying in bed because of the laziness factor (you know it's awesome), I've decided to be productive and get the ol' Wacom out again. After inking a few pics, which I think have come out rather nicely, I'm moving up to actually drawing digitally.

It was...slightly difficult. I'm not used to such disassociation from my hand to paper, and I'm so used to looking down at my work that it's like learning how to draw all over again. I've been using my tablet to navigate around my computer though, anything to get used to my pen. I think it's been working~

Pencils

Inks
Old piece I drew sometime last year, I think? Rendition of Tim Drake, a.k.a. Red Robin.

The sketch had Garrus with an elongated chin, narrower eyes and a smaller neck guard. I fixed those parts and then digitally inked the piece. I think it came out much better~

I've been trying my hand at digital inking lately. It's a bit difficult learning how far the disassociation goes from your hand to the screen as opposed to having the paper in front of you when you ink traditionally, but I feel like I'm getting better. I'm also trying to thicken line weight so that way I can get better pictures.
