ZzzzZZZZzzz... I know I rarely update my journal or posted much lately 'cause I'm super busy with exam prep right now. Give me a week and a half and I'll be slightly more active again ^^

Also, I have uploaded a hair brush set that I developed for GIMP. It's pretty much done, but the set comes equiped only with one size, so canvas sizes matter. It's just a better version of what's already found on dA (the one I was using is actually referred to as fur brushes [link] but serves the same purpose ), so it's not something new The only difference is that my version is better organized. Also, the strands are more spaced out/aligned in a way for finer texturing and sharper natural-looking curves. The critical curve angle (how much the hair can curve before strands start intersecting each other and make a total mess of thing) is still not as great as I wanted it to be and is now direction/brush dependent. Tutorial comes later once enough people bug me about it, lol.

Also also, I was wondering if you guys have any reccomendations for traditional inking pen (for linearts, specifically). I tried a 0.6mm Staedtler lumocolor permanent, but it bleeded way too much (the darn thing soak through the paper no matter how lightly I pressed!). Well, I used liquid ink okay (Parker Vector & Pilot V5), but the lines looks horrible. I was thinking of grabbing a bunch of random felt-tipped pens, but that seem kinda expensive Just asking 'cause it takes quite a bit of time re-tracing the lines digitally and I think traditional inking looks nicer... Or atleast when I finally get hang of it

Also also also, the domo-club is watching me for some reason O.o. I feel threaten. Not sure if I should watch back. Long Story short: joining an inactive fan club is not the way to meet new people (I had like this one fanart at the time, so meh).
