Happy New Year everyone. Don’t know about you but I had a FABULOUS Christmas and a great new year (despite that I had to go to bed early because of a cold). I have LOADS planned artwise for the new year.  I finally replaced my old Wacom Intuos. Sadly, cant get the drivers for it to run on my iMac and macbook any more, so had to bite the bullet and get a new one. Had some lengthy conversations with the lovely Ian Field Richards aka Zilla774, my old friend and GUI Director from deviantART, who recommended I get the Bamboo Fun Pen and Touch rather than the Intuos.  So, the new toy is in its box upstairs, and as soon as the little one is back to school, it shall be opened and played with. I got Luke to install CS5 on my mac book, so am not limited to working on my new toy just in the workroom.  Below is a, airbrush piece I did with my old Wacom a few years ago, which I still quite like. I can still use my old Intuos on my Toshiba, so it’s not ready for the junkyard just yet.
