This is a portrait of my father created for his birthday a few years ago. This is a traditional 10 - 15 minute sketch (4H - B pencils) of my brother created many years ago.

Sketch Sessions Vector Experimentation
The original grey illustration was created using Rebelle on a Surface Studio. The color version was created using vectors in Krita on a Tuxedo Computer running Linux.

Creation (From the archive, more cross hatching and facet drawing but on light canvas drawing with dark pencils).

This is from the archive and technically it's not finished. Considering how old this is, I'm not sure it will ever be finished so I'm sharing it as is. If something changes and inspiration hits me to take this further then I'll update.

Brandon Lee (From #TheCrow) - Another #ArtRage project using #oils. This was a #speedpainting project completed in about 3 hours on a #SurfaceBook2 while sitting in a cafe in downtown #Philly.

This was created shortly after purchasing a SurfaceBook 2 being part of the testing of the new device while out in the wilds.

More renders of the Room, learning Blender

The room from a different camera view. I experimented with the bed sheet with a texture of a portrait of a friend, just to see how that would work. Still learning texturing and lighting.

A naked silver guy gave me his magic surfboard. Was going on about Hollywood constantly screwing up his movies and comics

This initially started out as a Krita sketch. At the time, I had an old SurfaceBook 2 sitting around and decided to install Linux Mint on it. It only took 45 minutes including download times and everything worked, the touchscreen, external memory, the Surface Pen. So I started this piece on that SurfaceBook 2 as a test for Krita on Linux. After a time, I used Affinity Designer to create what you see here for want of a vector version of the original drawing.

My digital workspace is... not ideal.

#hourlycomicsday #hourlycomicday #hcd #hcd2026
9-10AM Panel 1: OP holding laptop at an awkward angle to be able to see and draw on the screen. Caption: "I don't like digital art as much as drawing on paper. I have a Surfacebook2 and have to draw like this." Panel 2: drawing of a wacom tablet. Caption: I miss my old tablet with the rocker wheel that controlled brush size. Intuos4? Miss it lots. Panel 3: 10-11AM OP drinks from a wide bowl-mug-thermos. Caption: this is all I'm drawing I need a break to drink some soup.

The number of third party applications natively supported by Sets in #Windows10 #WindowsInsiders is incredible. Here's just a small serving of the ones installed on my #SurfaceBook2! Not to mention we're really early into this dev cycle.. I'm sure there are more features to come. https://t.co/LT...

The good news is that while taking a break from troubleshooting my gaming PC, I hooked up my #SurfaceBook2 to my 3440x1440 display and played a couple hours of @PlayOverwatch with very little trouble. Couldn't stop myself. xD https://twitter.com/WizardCM/status/961917464438190082

Interesting. In Australia, the #SurfaceBook2 15" 256GB is basically the same price as the 13.5" 512GB (which I have owned for almost a month now). Matching the "512GB" would cost an extra ~$500

I'm happy with my 13.5" decision - 15" would be too bulky for my use case.

#WindowsInsiders

Tiny bit bummed - I got Sets on my #SurfacePro4, which is awesome. Then I set up my new #SurfaceBook2 & reinstalled Windows on my gaming desktop PC last night - neither have Sets.


Guess I have to wait. xD

In the meantime, there's something really neat about the #SurfaceBook2 keyboard - it makes me feel like a pro in a spy movie.

Fingers flying across keys.

Words appearing as quickly as they come to mind.

It's beautiful.

Is anyone else having mouse or keyboard issues with their Surface Book 2 lately?

Mine stops responding for about 20 seconds, at random times. Supremely annoying.

This was an issue in the early days, but a FW update fixed it. @surface #surfacebook #surfacebook2
