thought I'd revamp and renew, since 7 pages was a lot to deal with.

ahhh your lines are so good!!any tips on making them cleaner?
I use Paint Tool SAI for my work, and up on the top is a "Stabilizer" option. I tend to keep it on anywhere between 6-10, and I find it helps me be a bit more consistent with my lines! Other than that, definitely practice, practice, practice. Digital art takes time to get used to!
 
Ania lifted the man into her arms, both with haste and as gently as she could. The woman could already feel the same, stern eyes faltering at the sight of her dying beloved. She brought his form close to her, his cheek to hers; speaking into his ear while she captured his final breaths. Tears slipped from her eyes, though she didn't bother keeping them open - only cradling the fading life in her arms.

"May Julla take you kindly, elskede. No matter where you go, I will be with you. You will be welcomed by the Gods; fight battles, have every bit of joy you could ever dream. And someday, I will be there; so we may fight alongside each other; and love one another. Wait for me."

[Before you freak: no, this is note canon. Just a bit of work I did inspired by some creative thoughts.]

If you start doing digital commissions again, I'd buy one!

sure. commissions are technically open, but i would almost recommend people ask for something traditional instead of digital until i'm back to where i was skill-wise. unless you don't mind rough coloring or lineart and/or both rough coloring and lining.
 
So my pen pressure is still being a bynch, but I managed to get one commission done. Hopefullyboth tablet and pen will continue to work together somewhat adequately so I can keep working.

i know this may seem like a dumb question, but have you tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling it? My pen loses pressure all the time, or sometimes will register on the tablet but not my computer... clearing the driver usually helps. :T

Also. Bless your talent.
 
Awh thanks! I think I've tried that once or twice. But I could be wrong. I'm not the most tech-savvy -- henceforth, I don't know what I'm doing. BUT I'LL GIVE IT A TRY!
 
ONCEAGAIN did my pen/tablet decide to be an arse -- especially when I had a few edits to do on this piece. Luckily I got to finish it. Now I'm uncertain if I can get the other ones done in a timely manner, but fingers crossed.

Okay I did things and my pen pressure worked again. Honestly my tablet and pen are more bipolar than Texas weather.
