The world needed a cute sheep twink, so I stepped up and provided one. I don't make model sheets for my characters, but it might be fun to do one for Chaz, even though he doesn't need it -- he's easy to draw.

I'm cutting back my hours at work so I can spend more time drawing. This should mean that my posts will become a little more frequent (and better drawn) in the coming months, fingers crossed.

I still have all of those pencils, sketchpads, and electric erasers I bought years ago, but now I go out carrying only one hardcover sketchbook, one Prismacolor lead holder, and one Staedtler clic eraser (a lead holder's like a mechanical pencil, but with thicker leads for drawing). The goal is to get good results using very simple tools, and to keep the number of those tools to a minimum. Yesterday afternoon I sat in a parking lot drawing a porn cartoon, and the results weren't horrible.

Could someone point me towards a baby-steps tutorial for coloring scanned lineart using Photoshop Layers? So far, I haven't figured out how to accomplish even the most basic tasks using that tool (I can't see my own lineart!), and it's embarrassing. I'd read the Layers manual, if one existed.
