#lightpad
I am using techniques, that I had been using 15, 20 years ago, techniques I have been taught during my graphic design studies and that work for me (like tracing my own sketches via lightpad).

I am tweaking them to fit my new technical possibilities.

Yes my end results are often close to the sketches I post, because I do not post the X doodles I did beforehand.
Yes, I change things (in that case perspective).
Yes, I am aware that looks as if I traced something. I do. I trace my fucking sketches. Digitally or on a lightpad (depends on my mood).

3-put it on your lightpad/table, trace the inking with a colored pencil (preferably a non-photo one) and do the outlines for ink,it has to be a colored pencil because normal pencil would be hard to see through the lightpad.
4-ink the outlines with a 0.3/5mm fineliner.

My laptop is now a glorified mp3 player and a power supply for my lightpad that occasionally plays ps2 games when it feels nice to me on that day

i have a Lightpad from roli, it's basically a midi controller but instead of midi it's MPE and the surface is soft and squishy and sensitive across multiple parameters for Hella Expression, it lights up to mirror the NOISE interface

🌷 Today's ship of the day is... Lightpad! 🌷
(Lightbulb from II x Mepad from II)
This ship is queer platonic!

When I use the lightpad with my 300lb paper the lines can get pretty hard to see, but it’s easier the less light there is in the room.

Cut to me transferring sketch to paper in my office with the door closed, curtains drawn and all the lights off like a little cave creature 😂

Yeah I have a lightpad that Erik got me, I just have to go upstairs to use it lol. Tbh I might try the iPad if only to have a semi accurate digital color reference

*boop* 😉😁
Pulled out the lightpad to trace and clean up first rough Komodo. Now to on folds, contours, shadows, texture. aka the nitty gritty details- the real hard stuff. Looking forward to painting. The colors will be my fun reward for all this effort. #artist #sketchbook #iSciArt #illustration

Here's some progress shots and the initial layout sketches I did, alongside a bunch of doodles. I almost got Brak's line wrong and wrote HAM sammitch...

Ich habe vor drei Jahren ein Lightpad gekauft fürs Diamond Painting. Das Kind wollte jetzt wieder anfangen, schnappt sich das Lightpad.
Tut's nicht mehr.
OK, war 10€ Amazonschrott, aber ich hab es schätzungsweise dreimal benutzt. 🫤
Grmpf

Not cross stitch this time but a finish none the less. Diamond painting is easier to take with me and work on while in a clinic or hotel room. Used a rechargeable A4 lightpad for this which is small enough to pack but also doesn't require moving around all the time.

This is usually how my drawings start out and I still had to flip it back and forth with my lightpad. I’m actually a bit stumped, so I might come back to it another time. I’m trying to say it’s okay if you’re frustrated with your art.

Before I put these Tulips and Hyacinth in the compost I photographed them over my lightpad. Just because a flower is not in full bloom, it doesn’t mean it can’t be interesting. #photography #flowers #tulips #hyacinth #lightpad #flowerphotography

lightpad that shit

currently working on an art trade with watercolors

Since I know that I can draw the lineart digitally and print them on my watercolor paper, it’s so much more fun. Before I had to use my broken lightpad and try to trace/ guess the lines through the thick paper.

5 months ago I bought about 250 antique magic lantern slides for about €60. Mostly french Romanesque, Venetian & Roman Architecture. Dating from the late 1870s to 1900. Bought a couple of projectors too, converted to electric; only now getting the chance to look properly at them using a lightpad.
