I dont draw digitally. I use red or blue pencils for my sketches and than I ink or pencil it. I just use photoshop to color my traditional drawings. I think I would use Photoshop for linework if I had a Ciniq. But I wanted to thank you for this great tutorial. It is written very understandable and it is informative. There is much work in it. Good job. Thank you.
I have some questions. I personally never used a tablet (but soon i'm gonna buy one) so i just wanted to know how you can paint with a tablet? How you navigate to draw precize lines? Does the tablet shows the drawing in progress in its screen so you know where to place the pencil? Or you just need to use your intuit and while you draw on tablet watch the PC screen?
I have a Wacom Cintiq, which is basically a screen where you can draw on. Like a piece of paper, except it's a screen. So you see your hand and draw like you normally would.
Most tablets don't have a screen. So you'll have to pay attention to the screen. It takes a while to get used to looking at something other than your hand, when you're drawing, but eventually you'll get there.
You don't need your intuition for that. You see the brush on the screen, so you always know where you are.
Thank you my friend. I'm one of those who still are traditional painters and never used tech to do that. But this week I will order a Wacom tablet large dimension. Hope it would be a great experience.
Is working great and i am also getting used to it. Here is one of my works with it [link] I found easier for me to use Corel Painter rather than Photoshop to do my works, but i use also Photoshop for final touches.
Thanks for yours continued support of us.

This is actually a bit old, and I do things a bit differently now. But it still is a useful tutorial, I think.
