Clip about sketching
Made another clip. Not so much about Xtreme and it's functions, but about sketching characters and how just by changing the ears, you can create several designs.
I dunno - maybe someone will like it. I'll try and make others in the future - more about Xtreme and it's tools.

(embeded clip, thanks to Xhris's tutorial!)

Re: Clip about sketching
Bob, that was wonderful! Thank you. It's also great to hear you chuckle every once in a while as something develops in your drawing and surprises you.
These videos of your drawings remind me of when I used to watch the Mickey Mouse Club and they would sometimes show the Walt Disney animators drawing.
You are the best. Thank you again.

Re: Clip about sketching
Bob,
That was great!
You taught me a couple things in this video besides different ears and noses.
1. I learned that I don't always have to be so controlled in my shapes and sketches. I love the fact that you look so comfortable doodling on the screen. I just wonder how you take that doodle and make a clean object with color later? As it is right now I still do most of my sketches on paper and scan them in.
2. I learned how easy it is to take a basic image and manipulate it into unlimited objects.
I'm going to try doing some sketching right away. :)
Thank you so much for sharing your techniques. I really did learn a lot from watching your clip.
Thanks,
Jen

Re: Clip about sketching
Great video. I was wondering how you did a complete sketch after reading your previous video. Now it's all clear.
It's amazing how easy you draw these stuff =)
Don't hesitate to post more videos :p

Bob:
Thanks to you, I actually got my tablet out and played for a couple of minutes. I had long since given up on the thing, because PSP doesn't create fluid arcs and such unless the stylus is moved very slowly, and I can't afford a more expensive program at this point (which may not fix the problem). You have shown me that it is usable, and even though my sketching skills suck, it was fun--thank you.
It was great watching how effortless you make it seem.
Best wishes,
David

Re: Clip about sketching
I'm glad that these videos are fun to watch :)
I did something new - a 10 minute sketch or "doodle" and posted that. Right now, there fun to make and I think there are those who may like watching something like this - watching someone draw. I know as a kid, I liked seeing that and a lot of times didn't see enough. Don't see something like that too often on regular TV.
I don't want these clips to come across as, "showing off" but more as inspirational - or just simply, "fun to watch." Nice to hear that some tablets got dusted off and given a second chance :) But if you don't have a tablet, pencil and paper is just as good and in some ways, even better! I mean, no save button to press and when you're done, you automatically have a printout made :D

Re: Clip about sketching
I was listening to your voice and I have to agree some other, very hypnotic.
It made me think of that guy on TV that made paintings of nature, Ross, or something like that.
And the video`s are great, I only used my freedraw tablet for shapes
that were too hard to do with my trackerball, (I never use a mouse,
they just never felt right) but I will use my tablet more now.
Love to see more of your video`s, and great background music too
on that last video.
