The Blog Since 2008
If you're new here, you may want to have a look at the pages in the menu above and subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
If you want to get your toes wet with studio strobes you most likely don’t want to break your bank account. This is especially true if you are on a budget. But this shouldn’t withhold you from getting started either.
No, this blog isn’t suddenly about browsers and this kind of stuff but this post is much less off topic than you might think in the first place. There is one issue with Firefox that annoyed the crap out of me lately.
It’s not the one that Firefox doesn’t start because it’s already (invisible) active in the background. No, as with every application you can easily solve this by shutting down the task in the task manager.
The most annoying issue is that Firefox will freeze ten or twenty times a day stating that it’s not responding. Sometimes it will come back to life again sometimes it will not before my patience has vanished.
So it was time for a solution.

It’s a boy!
Yes, for the first time since I started this little series I could resist the temptation to draw a female character.
Another premiere is that I’m in real time in the video itself rather than speeding it up and doing the voice over. I thought this would cause me to stay within the five minutes.
And as you can see: forget about that!
This time you see me obey the guidelines I prepare for this drawing in Manga Studio entirely. This is because I want to give you a basic of how you can create something just by starting with some basic lines and shapes and then going from there.
There is a little fact to know if you want to let your character look a little bit older. Let’s have a look at it in todays short video.
In today’s quick tip we have a look at how useful it can be to import a layer from a former drawing we made.
As this week RAW file by Jared Polin contains without a doubt a cool looking model it’s time to participate in the weekly RAW edit thing. Yes, again.
This time I also have a little critique on the image itself.
