Description You guys kept asking for it, so here it is!

Though maybe not what you were asking for.

Anyhow, I was drawing Maiden Flash and was going to make a video recording of the whole process with commentaries and stuff. But then it was too slow, and I gave up on it and instead shot the screen like 50 times during production - maybe for the better, since it took all day. AND I missed submitting it on Leap Day by like 3 hours. So tiiired....

Sorry if it's super rushed and vague and confusing - that's kind of how everything is on the internet.

Made in not-Flash

Flash © Adobe

EDIT: Oh yeah, super important - I use the paint brush tool, not the pencil/pen to draw. It's set at 50 smoothing, and I use the second smallest brush size for the line art. Plus, I'm using a tablet that allows me to control the stroke width using pressure sensitivity (you have to turn it on from the bottom of the tool bar).

Where's the ActionScript window?

(When I use Flash I make little games with it, so ActionScript is very important to me... )

Ah, heh. No, I meant...At the beginning you say that you have your Flash arranged all how you like. But I couldn't find the ActionScript window, so...anyway, it doesn't matter.

Very cool.

However, I hate Adobe's takeover of Macromedia. It just seems like Macromedia's programs lost some magic right then.

I'm never surprised anymore that tutorials are almost never helpful, lol. They're good for advice and everything, but everyone's got their own style. And if they don't, they adopt one and do what works for them.

Cute though. :3
