Well aint that a bitch. >.<

I've been kinda pissed over the past few weeks and trying not to think too terribly about what I got just before Christmas; a shattered Cintiq.
Its survived with me on the road for better than 2 years, so its gotten much mileage and has survived a number of tumbles, dings, and bumps. But enough weight on the front screen plate will pretty much fuck you sideways. So at this juncture, there's going to be no more digital work from here on out until I can get it either replaced or repaired.
The good news is I'm at least appreciating the silver lining in the mushroom cloud; I'm sticking to traditional work, and actually getting into not only inking again but dipping my proverbial wick into colored pencil. So hopefully, I might be able to MUCH more conveniently take my work on the road, rather than having to break out two laptops, a cintiq, a master controll box, and a migrane's worth of cables just to fuckin' doodle.
So... Yeah, no more dickstreams, etc. BUT I'm still crackin' out the work, if albiet traditionally. NOt sure how regularly I'll be able to post, but better that than nothing.

FA+

I do find that all the cables and such is a bit of a downside to the Cintiq.
And good luck with your traditional work! It's certainly a bit simpler, in that it doesn't require a degree in electrical engineering to accomplish something. :)
