    I just got a tablet, and it is taking awhile to get used to. I don't know if I'll go full digital or mix'n'match. You know you can get a straight line by placing a dot at the start, then holding the shift key and placing another dot...
    Of course there is hope!
    And yes, I know about the shift thing, but I don't really like the lines I get with it. Maybe I should just practice more with the stylus.

    I think I know what you mean, they're...too straight/obviously computer generated lines, rather than looking "hand-drawn". I can manage a straight, hand drawn line on graph paper but can't do it with the stylus...yet. Practice, especially for me, will be key. They are amazing things (stylus/tablets), I've been mucking around on mine, trying different things and it's very good. The hardest thing I'm struggling to get used to is not using the stylus as a mouse, I find I'm still lifting and dragging the stylus, forgetting I can just place it wherever I want... or perhaps that's the onset of senility?
    Glory is the reward of valour.
