Recently received my new Cintiq 12wx and have been playing around with it. Unfortunately, the image didn’t turn out the way I wanted just because I spent so much time getting color profiles/calibration and monitor set-ups to work for me. While I love using the Cintiq, it has definitely been awhile since I have drawn directly onto the PC using Painter. My usual workflow is drawing a sketch on paper and scanning it in to do the values with Photoshop. I’m sure after some practice, though, I’ll get back into the swing of things.

Concerning the illustration, I wanted to portray someone who feels ‘plain’ and yearns to be someone else. I’m sure in a few years, she’ll realize it wasn’t worth the time or effort. 😉
