Description
Hokay, I was asked for it, so I thought, Meh, why not do it while I'm makin' Ivy, right? So I did. Yaaaaaaaaaay!Annnnnnnnd what else? Oh, the last little part was a mini-rant thingum...I was looking on a tutorial and it was all "You really need a tablet to do this but if all you have is a mouse you'll just have to do the best you can." So I got ticked off, because, well, let's just slam that budding artist's hopes against the rocks, yes? I mean, it's one thing to upload a really great piece of work and be all, "I did this with a tablet," but an entirely different thing to go out and say, "If you have a mouse you won't be able to do anywhere near this good." Which makes me angry. So yeah. ><
Not that I don't want a tablet. Just that if all you've got is a mouse, use the bloody mouse.

This is what I have been after for ages. The shading has really thrown me off for years, :insert icon that sums up praise, thanks and joy:
I too, have no tablet and only use MS paint and a mouse (is it really worth buying one?, I just draw sketches and stick them to the computer screen and line them in paint).

ack late reply is late so I don't know if this is helpful at all |:
I personally don't think that a tablet is worth it if you've figured out how to draw with a mouse, especially if you plan on sticking with Paint. My tablet is a worthless piece of plastic. <<; But I may just be incompetent with them xD;

That.
But, i have bad news about my kitty...
TT^TT
We took her to a shelter so she could have her kittens.
After the kittens are old enough to be weined [sp?] we're going to go get her. Whenever that'll be...
We rent a house, and chances are she will go under the house to have them if she's here.
And she can't have them inside because i own a curious chihuahua....
So, yeahh.
