A quick note on not getting stuck in your drawings. Sometimes you luck out and you draw an amazing elbow and your drawing is completely screwed because you refuse to delete it. Here's the medicine I take.

Had a great time talking with Victor Maury. Using a bribe of cakes I had him explain the process of how he arrived at the final destination of this painting of Warwick. If you are interested in Splash art check it out!

I love looking at my own work. What I like most is having the initial idea and the final image side by side for comparison. One represents the quick initial idea and the other several days of effort. Why? Because during the process I barely spend any time with either of them! /thread

Damn. You have to pay for premium to download high res images from other people who also pay for premium from 15th of May. So many good high res albums will become useless overnight. (thinking of some great scans of books I found for instance)
Goodbye flickr. :/

Lazy Nezumi Pro update 25.03.27 adds locking and other new features to the Perspective Ellipse ruler!
It also adds support for TVPaint 12, and adds a workaround for an XPPen wintab driver bug that was blocking pen input.
