Mmmm, holidays and birthdays are my favorite times of the year. For good friends, of course. I'll draw for a few people when I get the chance.

I use Paint to trim off the excess from the scanner, sometimes I'll use windows editor to make a picture darker if the scanner was too bright, but other than that everything is just myself and my pencils. I always wanted to get a nice tablet, but JC said it's too expensive and I have to agree. I'm okay with getting nice pencils (I go for Prisma) and just making really cool things with those. On my dA my favorite drawings are a black tailed mermaid. Prisma colors helped get her tail fin to blend so beautifully. Same with the water druid that I have as a sample for this contest. I have a bird dragon on dA that I crumpled the paper and then scanned it, and I must say, I love the effect the wrinkles have on the drawing.
