  1. You nailed the BMW.. I knew what vehicle immediately. Both look really good.. Nice penciling on both. I know the curse of the goggles well. I started wearing reading glasses at work which cause my eyesight to worsen. Now I wear prescription glasses to see clearer and prescription reading glasses for close up work.. Getting old does suck but unfortunately I don't have any insight on a reversal..lol
  2. I'm the same with artwork, have to be in the mood or inspired from something I spotted. At the moment I can not remember the name of the digital drawing program that was also suggested that I try but they used a layering process of drawing and eventually you have your artwork. Too much work, not much fun although easy to correct any mistakes. I'd have to say pen or pencil would be my choice of medium. I should I say "when" I get the time too. As for inspiration.. It comes in many forms.. much from what we talked about before..?
  3. Did you end up finishing your pieces of art? My granddaughter turned me on to a digital artwork app a few years back that she happened to stumble on, ColorTherapy. It was more geared towards individuals who used it for therapy. They used tap and fill coloring templates but also had a few blank pages you could use to create your own artwork. I started out using the templates but tweaking them to my liking. After I got bored with that I moved on to freehand? If you can call digital art freehand? I haven't been able to get back into it since my iPad I used for that took a BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH. I still rather do artwork by hand but the digital artwork was fun to do. Here's a few examples of freehand digital work from that app.
