Just updating my journal to take advantage of the ninja assassin journal skin, this movie looks pretty good. Still waiting to see Boondock Saints 2 first though :)

Thnaks for the tips on art programs. Am gonna search for them and lets see if I can get the hang of it. Rock on brother.

Thats insightful my friend... all this time i cant help but feel that I may not be compettitive in this art form because of my lack of knowledge in photoshop and other digital art systems. im from the old school, traditional pencil and inking stuff.. However I think the top guys right now knows digital art as well... and they are the ones getting the commissions from top copmpanies ... so its something to learn as well.

Did you study digital art in school? Anyway appreciate your advise man.. getting the opinion from another artist like this , is so insightful! It's making me believe again in dreams... that my art may have potential after all. Thanks brother.

I learned a little in school.. I actually studied graphic design. I didn't really learn photoshop and illustrator until I got my first job working in screenprinting. My next job after that was for a phone directory publisher, creating small advertisements. Somewhere along the line, I stopped using photoshop and now I only use illustrator.

It's never too late to learn photoshop and other programs, if that is what you want to do. If you can't get a copy where you're at, there are some other programs you can get for FREE online that are similar to both photoshop and illustrator.
:iconcarlogarde:
Yeah but are the programs you mentioned user friendly? I mean can one use it without formal training on the program itself?
:iconjusticefrog:
Most programs have tutorials that you can view online for free, lessons and other things for people that want to learn the basics, etc. Of course the best way to learn a program is just by exploring all the possibilities to see what you can do and just having fun with it :) Paint DotNet, and GIMP, are two Photoshop clones that you might want to try out, you can download them for free. Inkscape is probably the only Illustrator clone that I know of... but I've chatted with people that have used both and say they are pretty straight forward and user-friendly.
