Oh cool, this is neat!
I love the swirly things, and that butterfly is spiffy, I can definetly say you are getting better ^_^
Since I am who I am I must say smoother (as in less jagged) lines would be nice, but I quite understand that it is difficult sometimes.
Are you a mouser or a tablet-user (Tabby)? Either way qualities vary and it can be hard to get flowy lines.
I use a mouse, but I am asking my parents for a Wacom Tablet for Christmas.. Possibly a Graphire or Intuos.
Thanks for your comments! Yah, I hope I am getting better! I drew PowerPuff girls for the first months I started doing oekaki (I was at PowerPuffOnline). I started this oekaki-business in June. But I have 'branched out' to anime & a little bit of furries. My Next Goal: Scenery! Or maybe not..
i reccomend the graphire. thats what i use.. i dont really see a need for the really expensive ones. i only have a graphire2 4x6. it was $99 at the time, and well worth it. the only diff with the "better" tablets is more pressure sensitivity, or a bigger space.. i dont even really use the pressure sensitivity.
I recommend getting a 6x8, and not a 4x5, no matter which line you get. 4x5 just isn't worth it. Now, graphire3 has 4x5 for $100, and 6x8 for $200. Whereas intuos is $300 for a 6x8. The advantage with an intuos is you'll have a much more robust tablet, (plus you can get platinum, while the graphire 3 design sucks and the colors aren't great). So it's really a question of if you're willing to spend $100 more for a more powerful tablet. A side-by-side comparison. (I should mention I find the menu strip useless, the tilt can only be used in expensive programs like photoshop (7 and later), or painter (7 and later as well, I believe, 8 supports it). I'm working on a new applet that'll support tilt as well, though. I really like the intuos2 mouse, but I haven't used a graphire3 mouse to compare (The tablet mouse has completely replaced my optical). Since they have 6x8 in graphire as well now, that's not really a reason to go with intuos2 (one of the main reasons I went with it). Grip pen... that's probably also meaningless, it's nice, but dunno if it's worth it.
