Happy 4th + Current Events + Auction Plans?
9 years ago
Hello everyone, it's been a while since I made any updates here, obviously, but I just wanna hope everyone's having a great 4th and are also enjoying Summer Games Done Quick as well!
Now, it's time I shared a few bits of currents events going on here.
Firstly - "The Growth Drive's Final Image"
I do intend to complete this, even though no one has submitted any forms to it, ending with quite a massive size of my own choosing. I apologize so much for not making many updates towards it, I still would love to thank everyone who have been participating, sharing, and donating towards it. I promise I will complete this whole thing soon.
Secondly - "I Finally Have Some New Equipment"
I will admit this is partially why not much work has been done for the Growth Drive's final image as of now. People who follow my Twitter have probably already known this, but I finally have some updated equipment much thanks goes to my brother for not only giving me the money to upgrade but to also pay for my Summer classes, which I'm proceeding through as of now for the next 5 weeks. The Monoprice MP 22-inch tablet has been everything I hoped it would be, I'll probably make a full review of it here in the future, it really is a beautiful tablet, especially for its price. Now, as a result, I've got a few bits of equipment now showing non-use as I'm getting acquainted, and I certainly do actually intend on having this as my new main art equipment, which brings me to my next subject...
Thirdly - "...What Do I Do With The Old Stuff Now?"
So sadly my old Bosto 14WA is left in the dust, its drivers uninstalled from my computer and now just sitting in a drawer, but I don't want such a legitimately good tablet monitor, especially because it's a cheap and pretty functional tablet monitor of its own right, I'm thinking about selling or auctioning it off to an artist or friend around here if they are interested, at a pretty good starting price, I think I'd offer it at $350 as a starting price. Maybe $400+ ideally. If people would indeed be interested into it I can share more details about it, of which before anything I must state a caveat; AS FAR AS I KNOW THIS TABLET IS *NOT* WINDOWS 8/10 COMPATIBLE. From my test works with it while I was in W10 I could not quite get the drivers to work out for me, it's weird, but it is an outdated model of a brand of tablets Bosto has done. If you very intentionally run Windows 7 and are fine sticking with it, this may work quite well for you, as it did me for the longest time.
Speaking of selling old art equipment, I still have an Intuos 4 Medium that I will let go at...pretty much any price. I have no intention of ever using it anymore, I'll let it go at like $100, I'm willing to barter at lower prices. I've got at least one pen with I think 2 holders each with their set of replacement nibs inside of them.
Also in terms of auctioning anything off, I do have a couple sketches that have sadly been left unfinished and maybe I can offer those off too if folks are interested too.
Lastly - Future Plans
I think with how much fun I'm having with the new tablet, I think I would love to get back into doing commissions again. And I think seriously get back into them too. It's been a real amazing piece of work I love using every time, it doesn't get old. Plus, well. I still need to upgrade my own laptop, and plus I do need books for my classes too, so, why not try it all out again?
Anyway, that's everything that is going on with me as of now. I do hope things will just get better from here on, too. OH! Also I've been getting better used to other art sites, as well as being really active on Twitter! You can check me out here:
