The lasso tool's also good for adding the tails on balloons, although it takes a little practice.
Thanks for posting this! I totally didn't know about the stroke function...

Yeah the lasso tool works well if you have a steady hand (I don't - which is part of the reason I use SAI instead of photoshop to actually draw my comics) or aren't perfectionistic about everything being super smooth like I am! ^_^

Yeah... I'm not so much a perfectionist... and still had to use Ctrl Z a lot anyway.

No problem! It took me a lot of digging to figure out how to use the pen tool, so I wanted to share what I'd learned!
