Hellooooo...

This was the last pic I made before I dropped my pen on evil, bad, naughty concrete floor and lost the nib... so PLEASE, if anyone knows where you can order WACOM pen nibs for the ArtPad outside the US, give me a hint! Can you imagine the sheer _horror_ of not being able to paint like you used to?! ;-)

[edit: About the picture... it was done for the Dreamhack demoparty here in Sweden, but I was far, far from finished when I dropped the pen. So with the deadline rapidly approaching I had to find a guy whose pen I could borrow... took some time. This resulted in me having to work this pic up from sketch-level, painting continuosly for six hours straight... so it's a bit rushed. Just so you know ]

how did you do in the compo?

I ended up in third place, out of 21 competitors. If you want to see the first and second place, check out www.dreamhack.org . They�re quite something!

Hey Gaxar, do you want me to save all those progress pictures you put on my desktop?

And, as I remember it, how it REALLY happend was that I came along and said something along "Why don't you scrape that scratched up plastic covering off your ArtPad so that you can use the nicer, textured surface underneith?"
And you where like "Sure, that'll be cool". But when you started to remove it, you soon realized that that would take you days to remove, not to mention that you thumbs had started developing blisters. And then started looking at the clock and then me with a angry look. So I was forced to lend you my computer.
