wow a picture!

Coon @ Thursday, August 9th 2018, 12:54 AM

Woohoo, new Pinderhooks mousey art! Chicken Paint is pretty groovy, no? Great work this is really really cute and I love her expression and pose a lot!

Brentos @ Saturday, August 11th 2018, 2:43 AM

OMG it's about time you drew something again! She's so awesome! More mouse-girls with berets as soon as possible!

Trying out my new Wacom Intuos tablet and the driver seems to override Windows Ink quite nicely. In fact I really like it! It draws way better than my old Wacom Bamboo. The only problem is it doesn't seem to be compatible with Shi painter, when I go to draw with Shi it just kind of scrolls the page around leaving double images of all the tool buttons. That's a drag because I've really gotten used to the simplicity of Shi, but oh well I guess I'll have to learn this Chicken Paint, it's working really good I say I must say.

Coon @ Sunday, August 5th 2018, 12:42 AM

Looking great, and I am REALLY glad you got your tablet situation worked out! I think you'll find Chicken Paint is pretty darned friendly, too, I didn't find it more complicated than Shi for the basics, it just had more convenience options. So burn... Burn the flames... Higher and higher.

I heard there was an Army surplus of bombshells.

Coon @ Monday, July 30th 2018, 4:32 AM

You heard right Wac! By the way the drawing is showing up huge for me on the board, not thumbnailed like usual. I tried retouching to fix it but it's still immense, is it just on my end? Or did I do something that made it not reduce?

Sakana_Katana @ Monday, July 30th 2018, 9:08 PM

I miss Happy Tree Friends.
<Sigh>
Nice squirlgirl, there.

Waccoon @ Tuesday, July 31st 2018, 3:41 AM

The way I set up the thumbnail system is that if a picture has a small filesize, it will show up at full resolution by default. Dimensions don't matter -- only how much bandwidth it will use.

So yeah, big is normal.

Brentos @ Saturday, August 4th 2018, 6:30 AM

Awesome pic, I'm digging all the destruction and communism. Destruction is creativity and creativity is DESTRUCTION!

Mcsweezy @ Tuesday, August 7th 2018, 6:39 AM

Goodness! I love this!
I wasn't expecting this when i checked here, but man this is great! Thanks a bunch yo!

Coon @ Thursday, August 9th 2018, 12:57 AM

Thanks for the kind words, and you're welcome McSweezy, Frag is great! I love HTF and your drawing of "the first Frag drawing" really sold it, and is why I gave her the heart nose XD

Wac, I'm glad it was just how the oekaki was set up and not me accidentally checking the "Display picture huge and hog the whole board you doofus" box!

In Soviet Russia, dog sew extra head on YOU! This is Straika, the result of secret experiments to send dogs to space and then sew them together when they returned to Earth, in the name of the people. But Straika turns out to represent not the Kremlin, but HERSELF! Watch out Sovs.

Brentos @ Thursday, July 26th 2018, 6:47 PM

Oh my GAWD this is the coolest pic nigh on to the age of a coon by cracky! Awesome pic!

pinderhooks @ Friday, July 27th 2018, 8:25 PM

I bet the reason they didn't give her 3 heads is because people only have 2 hands to give her head-pats with :v

Coon @ Saturday, July 28th 2018, 2:05 PM

Thanks Brentos! I had to retouch after uploading because I forgot the handle on the rifle. WHOOPS! She'd shoot it and it would have just gone flying off behind her.

Pinderhooks, RIGHT? Can you imagine the drama that would ensue from being only able to pet 2 heads of a 3 headed dog at any given time? Whatta whinefest!

Mcsweezy @ Saturday, July 28th 2018, 4:05 PM

Neat pic yo! I dig it

Coon @ Sunday, July 29th 2018, 7:29 PM

Thanks Mcsweezy!

Sakana_Katana @ Monday, July 30th 2018, 8:51 PM

Head sewn on? OH, now that you explained it: I thought only one head had a necklace before.
Much sad that redistribution of wealth left one head unadorned.
Oh wow, so very retro propaganda, I likesky.

Lucky Wac comes with a built-in leash of sorts! No escape from even the most awkward of situations.

Brentos @ Sunday, July 22nd 2018, 1:09 AM

This is like some kind of revival going on here, lots of people coming back, new artists joining up, this is some real classic-style DTP I must say.

Waccoon @ Sunday, July 22nd 2018, 6:41 AM

Oh, gosh... you're spoiling me! You've given me some of the most awesome gifts ever!

What I really love about this is that it's so "them". Wac may be a tad more adventurous these days, or else she couldn't have gotten him outdoors in the buff in the first place. She still needs a firm hand to keep him there, though.

Thanks so much!

Coon @ Thursday, July 26th 2018, 9:28 AM

Brentos, maybe more people will post! Hey you, if you're reading this why not draw a picture? I mean what's it gonna hurt? You know you wanna, go on!

Wac, I'm glad you like it, your raccoons are super cute and fun to draw! I really love them a lot! Thank you for running this board! You're totes welcome.

pinderhooks @ Friday, July 27th 2018, 8:19 PM

Brentos @ Saturday, July 21st 2018, 4:43 AM

I think I've jumped through all the hoops to use Shi Painter on my new computer but holy crap my old Waccom Bamboo drawing tablet does not want to cooperate with where I want the lines to go, they're all over the place. Plus when I move the pen back into the drawing box I have to re-orientate the cursor to where the pen is on the tablet, very annoying. The Waccom site says I don't need to install a driver (which is true, I just plugged it in and started using it) but wow this will not do, my aht is bad enough already. It worked great on my old mac so I'm guessing it's true, Macs are better for doing art but I hate macs now ( I hate this computer too if it matters. Fuck!).
I'm thinking of just buying a new tablet, any suggestions on what's a good one to draw with you Deep Thinkers?

Coon @ Saturday, July 21st 2018, 6:31 AM

That sounds super bizarre! I know you probably already did this, but did you make sure to turn off Windows Ink and all writing-input functions? It sounds like Windows (I assume!) is trying to interpret your strokes as handwriting. I'd go ahead and install the latest drivers if I were you, because while the computer will recognize the tablet as a Human Interface Device, it won't know what it is precisely and will try to use it like a mouse.

If you do end up buying a new tablet, I'm devoted to Wacom Intuos (or what is now called Intuos Pro I guess? Intuos used to be the top of the line but I think they started calling everything Intuos) and am on my third one and have always loved the results they give. But the problem you're having really doesn't sound like it's hardware related, it sounds like some software is messing with your strokes.

Brentos @ Sunday, July 22nd 2018, 1:16 AM

That first thing you said is probably it, I read something about Windows Ink and didn't even really know what it was. I haven't used windows for like ten years so I'm way out of the loop with their computers still. Thanks Coon!

Waccoon @ Sunday, July 22nd 2018, 6:14 AM

Wacom tablets have always been a problem, partly because MS wouldn't make a proper tablet driver standard, and Wacom refuses to support any standards (since they have so much market share). I'm currently using a Wacom driver from 2012, since anything newer has way too many problems.

Under Win7, you have to disable the Tablet PC Input service, and I believe under Win10 they either renamed it or supplanted it with Windows Ink Workspace, but disabling that isn't very straightforward since it's not a service (look up a tutorial). Once you do that, the Wacom driver should work better.

Brentos @ Saturday, July 28th 2018, 4:41 AM

I can see why so few people want to draw on oekaki boards these days. I found a tutorial to disable ink but got second thoughts after considering I couldn't install a driver for my tablet anyhow, I even dug up the old CD that came with it(Bamboo Fun) but that wouldn't install either. I think I'll open up Firefox and try messing around with Chicken for a while.

Right now I'm thinking of just going out and buying a new drawing tablet, you guys got any recommendations for one that works good with Windows 10? All my whining aside, thanks for the tech advice you Deep Thinkers!

Coon @ Saturday, July 28th 2018, 2:01 PM

I wish I could help, but I'm hanging onto Windows 7 with my blunt little claws as long as I possibly can, and I'm hoping by the time support runs out for it I'll be able to switch to Linux. I am sooooo done with playing Microsoft's game. I'm pretty sure as long as you get a tablet that's marked as compatible with 10 you should be fine, just make sure to read plenty of reviews before buying!

I'm not sure if it's even something you'd want to consider, but I've heard good things about the Surface Pro as a drawing tool since it has (I think) Wacom technology built right in, so you can draw right on the screen. However, that's only what I have heard, I've never used one! Whatever the case I hope you can get your drawing situation straightened out soon and it actually makes me angry that something as basic as tablet hardware isn't supported properly by Windows 10. With all the bloat these operating systems get shoved into them you'd think just keeping a working driver option available would be small potatoes.

Hey, you Deep Thinkers! I've been wanting to come back for a long time, and trying out Chickenpaint was a great excuse. I hope everyone here is doing great and is in good spirits and good health.

Waccoon @ Thursday, July 19th 2018, 3:29 AM

Suh-weet! Glad to see you're still around! It makes me sad you have no gallery URL specified, as I've always wondered what else you've been up to.

Brentos @ Saturday, July 21st 2018, 1:41 AM

Nice to see you around again! Her hair is awesome, it's nice to see this place getting some activity from all the newbies too.

Coon @ Saturday, July 21st 2018, 2:57 AM

Thanks Wac, and I adore ChickenPaint! I still haven't got it figured out fully but the paint part is a lot of fun. As for online art this oekaki is the place I get up to the most but if I do post anywhere I'll be sure to put the URL in.

Brentos, great to see you too and to read your comic (I think your comic now has run like one hundred times the length of most current DC or Marvel titles) and yes I was happy to see some new users. In the current atmosphere a freewheelin' place like this might be just what a lot of artists need! (Whether they know it or not.)

Brentos @ Sunday, July 15th 2018, 3:34 AM

Ah I see, I'm gone for like a month and all these newbies pop out of the woodwork thinking they can post stuff without ending up in my deliciously decadent comic! Well let me tell you mister horse-dick, if that really is your name, you're on a one way ticket to The Island and there's nothing you can do about it now! As soon as I get all that Java shit installed and my music downloaded and write you into the story you're gonna be in the story but I'll probably get too drunk tonight before that happens but mark my words you'll be in the comic in the next year or so unless I totally forget about you which is likely but that would be my fault not yours. But anyhow, nice horse dude it's a sexy pose but would look better if it was a chick and wasn't a horse. I'll fap to the top part!

I actually tried new photoshop methods with this one, like masks and such.

Sne needs a mask. And some socks would be good too. I'm glad she doesn't have hooves for hands though. The best part is everything below her neck above those fucking hooves! What a relief!

Coon @ Saturday, July 21st 2018, 3:09 AM

Great work! Keep working with masks and other methods, that stuff is super duper useful. It looks like Miss Tidewalker had a close call with her remaining good eye, too!
