youre too slow

I don't see how that applies.

Strange. I wait to see the finished.

Man I can't use tiny size brushes because my lines end up becoming sketchy and disconnected. Do you start huge then resize the image down or something?

Yeah, large canvas, although what I used here is probably still considered relatively small. The head took up about 1400 pixels squared at 100%, I used brushsize between 5 and 10 I think. It's not like I do all the lines perfectly the first time either ofc. Mostly I try and get it right in as few pieces as possible to keep as much of the line dynamic as possible, but even then I usually redo and erase a lot. What kind of brush settings do you use?

Ah, most of the time I've been working around or under 1000 because It keeps it near proper resolution and I don't have to zoom about so much, I usually like to see the whole piece and zooming out on huge resolutions ends up making brush strokes all steppy and ugh. I usually use brushes around the realm of sizes 5-6-7 and put flow & opacity pressure controlled.
Although, it might be down to me having a technique of swooping down a line, and if it doesn't look right, undoing it then repeating.
You also said you break up lines to make a whole, I have to say I find that hard with the tablet. That said, me using a tablet for months as opposed to being used to traditional for years probably means it's all down to me still not completely accustomed.

Know what you mean about the steppyness yeah (in PS I'm assuming). At 25, 50, 100, 200% etc it doesn't happen though, and from my experience neither on 66,7 or 33% when you're working at higher res.

I usually have flow and size at pressure. Think that creates a softer pencil like brush. Especially size at pressure might be worth trying, without size and flow at pressure it seems closer to something like a pen (used that for the bits of shading).

It can be tricky to match up ends when doing a line in multiple segments, and yeah when I do I usually have to redo it often.
I think having size and flow at pressure helps with blending the ends too. Also can be helpful to zoom out a bit when doing large lines to reduce the stroke you have to make.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention I have the size pressure controlled as well. I'll have to start trying out larger works then.

Here's a dump of my wallpapers I've worked on recently. I wouldn't mind some CnC if you guys want to give some.



PS: They are kinda big.

Basically re-did everything.

Photo study:

Stop putting text on fractals. Get more complex with transforms. Gradient does not compliment the shape. Try messing with scripts.



I really wish I had some of my old flames.

Not sure if qualifies. But man, electronics are pretty fun when you've finally finished a design and begun producing it.
