I think I will start that after sunflower collecting is over. LOL I have never charged for my art before.

I seem to focus on saving up for really old items like Summer Booth.
I've just been afraid no one would even my art. I'm all over the place.
The only thing I know for sure is I like color.
I just want to get better so I need some motivation to practice and KofK items will work.

That's definitely a good idea. :3
Haha, I used to mostly do freebies too. >w< Especially during events. I remember one Halloween I spent pretty much the whole event just doing freebies.. x.x;; Lesson learned: don't have unlimited slots.. Nobody tipped, either. D:
*cough* That doesn't sound very encouraging, sorry! XD;; But people are a lot nicer on here, so you probably wouldn't have that problem anyway. xD
I had a friend who felt the same way.. but now she's got a very active art shop (on another site). :> I say just go for it, and you'll definitely improve along the way. ^^
Lol, rewards are definitely good motivation. >w<

Ahh, I see. I mostly just want to play around with them.. I've never really gotten to use that fun stuff. owo; A blood splatter one would definitely be nice. But I think most artists get attached to a few certain tools they use for most of the time. >w< On Sai, I pretty much only use the pencil and marker tools.



..I want to make a comic too. ;o

MAKE COMICS! =D

And put them on Smack Jeeves so I can watch them. XD

I'll be trying to update every Monday (except today, lol). I have a few pages laid out, and pretty much all of the first chapter scripted, but the only stuff that's done is what's up. ^^; I also wanna spiff up the CSS at some point too, but I found a premade theme that matches the banner colors pretty well, which made me :D

My set day is Wednesday..... If I where to keep my comic on a schedule. XD;
Maybe one day. T^T

I figure making it Monday will encourage me to spend time on it over the weekend. Although it'll mess with me if I have a busy weekend, but... Eh, if I need to change it I will.

Photoshop is a great program and it can do some amazing effects!

I miss using Corel Painter.

Thats a great program, if you can get the hang of it.

@Katherdante; Yeah, that's why I want to play with it. x) I really like Sai, but it's kind of limited in comparison to PS.

@KC; Lol, I would but I know nothing about paneling and whatnot. D:
