( I used to drop things in my deviant art page http://kaddar.deviantart.com/ . ) I just bought a Note 4 and I have a long commute to work via public transit. I've started drawing again on occasion, posting the work here: https://twitter.com/jakedraws Any of ya'll do art these days? Where do you post things at?

It's the grunge artwork I've done over the years and some of it could be considered pretty graphic to some people.

lol, Kaddar > Injokester.

The only online stuff I've done in forever was for SC last year, when I was more active I always had my own website (always found deviantart slow and painful, it's improved a lot). If I were going to get back into it I'd either set up a domain or just run it all from facebook if I were too lazy.

Great stuff btw, the cliffs with the lighthouse for the cardgame look amazing. Skillful composition and colour scheme aside, is there anything special to the technique? Looks to be mostly paintbrush with size/opacity to fit, contrasting areas on new layers, and so on. I was looking for something to use for backdrops for displays, a quicker technique might solve all my problems - I can work a bit rough but my drawing style doesn't accomodate :)

For that piece, I went through some online videos and watched them, Noah Bradley has a bunch of art videos on youtube that felt pretty helpful. Lately, I've been reading art books, and the most helpful ones have been "keys to drawing" and "figure drawing - design and invention"
