Description
Just a simple illustration this week for The Line It Is Drawn as I attempted to familiarize myself with the SketchBookExpress app I've had on my computer since 2009, but failed to really play around with until now.I love the pen and pencil tools. They mimic the look and feel of traditional tools more than Photoshop and Manga Studio do, but SBX messed me up at one point when it automatically merged my layers after a "Revert." I guess the more user-friendly stuff is for the Pro owners/users or whatever.
So I guess it's a thumbs up from me for SketchBook Pro then?
For now, I'll probably use SBX to rough out drawings for some of my illos to inject energy in concepts, but use Manga Studio for more precision and polish. And I still don't know how SBX handles color separations, so Photoshop still remains my preferred coloring app.
Peace.

Now how in the world did Frenzy make the cut for this one, and who had to die for it to happen? Adorable piece - well done!

Very happy you dig this one, Suzene! I'm thrilled to finally get a chance to sneak some Frenzy love into one of my drawings.
Peace.

Kind of funny I suppose but jubes looks like she wearing a bra outside of her dress and then there's that purple guy and I don't know who thr guy is with the pointy ears so I'm afraid i can only give it an OK...

Seth, I think that's Artie Maddicks, a X-Factor supporting character who's been making a guest appearances in various Marvel titles over the past two decades (nice touch including him since there's also a character named Artie in Glee). Anyway, I was going to ask Mic who was that black female character to the right of Kitty Pryde?

Thanks for covering for me on IDing Artie, Eric! As Suzene mentioned, the Black female character is Frenzy. She's been a featured character in X-MEN LEGACY following the "Age of X" storyline.
Peace.

That's Frenzy, former follower of Magneto, with the X-Men since the AoX mini-event. She's pretty neat so far.

This is adorable.
I don't know who the purple kid is, but he is excellent.
I've yet to find that one program that fits all my needs, just got to keep looking I guess!

Thanks, Sean!
As Eric mentioned, the purple kid is Artie and I grew a soft spot for him after I saw how my first attempt at drawing him up above turned out! haha Delightful and unexpected surprise.
Thought it'd be cool to have a mute member included in this ragtag team of misfit GLEE club members.
Yeah, I think we comic book digital guys are doomed to having to deal with 2-3 separate apps from start to finish for now.
Peace.
