Eryck Webb Graphics 11th anniversary

December 11, 2020


On this day in 2009, Eryck Webb Graphics made its first $10 dollars selling art on eBay. Thousands of commissions and requests later, 11 years has gone by. The business has evolved a lot over that time. Each year has brought its own challenges to adapt to, and grow beyond. But one thing that always stayed the same is the drawing. I love drawing and getting to do it every day for a living. Thank you to everyone who has supported and encouraged this drawing dream in any way large or small. Thank you for 11 years! Here's to what lies ahead!

Adobe Twists My Arm

December 2, 2020

 



Batching 2000+ drawings is an important feature that Adobe Photoshop is exclusively best at. Been hunting trying all kinds of diff art apps. Nothing. Exhausted all searching/ trying alternatives.

Tried getting my old Adobe Photoshop 6.0 to limp along to do what I need it to do but always crashes

Tried Krita

Tried Clip Studio Paint and EX both seperately

Looked into 3rdparty conversion software

Nope.

Hello Adobe CC, nice to see you again. Ooo Photoshop CC is shiny.

Go away Lightroom!


-------- 2 Days Later -------


The new version of Clip Studio improved my issue I had with the 'continuous curve tool'. As well as some face-lifting here and there. Its use smoother and more natural to use than Photoshop. Got my PS auto batching done. Might stick with Clip Studio. Until my next book LOL

Plus ClipStudio still only cost me $50 a year ago compared to the ongoing $10 for PS. Plus I got used to the fluid intuitive use of ClipStudio I am having trouble using Photoshop now ... having trouble justifying keeping it.


---- Later that day after a work day ---- 


So ya. Sticking with Clip Studio having tried to use Photoshop again after all this time while working on Upgrades today. Except for the monopoly they have on automated batching files I really enjoy working in Clipstudio more. Especially with its new version.

Will be hunting for an alternative program/ open source program to batch automate  edit/ color convert/ size and save 100s of files in the meantime. Or just buy resintall PS for batching every 6 months then get my money back and reuninstall LOL.

Joker chibi ripped off again

November 24, 2020

 


A friend shared an interesting picture with me today. Something they spotted in the window of an Oregon legal marijuana shop. A chibi joker drawing of mine from a few years back. This one has the colors changed and the joker on the card turned into a pot leaf. This chibi is easily my most often ripped off art work. Bike helmets, tattoos, other peoples logos and now a bong. Lol...

Daily Discipline: Among Us Fan Art

October 15, 2020

 

#AmongUsGame #amongusfanart #inkscape #drawing 

Todays Warmup - ewAMONGUS - enjoyed finally getting to play this with folks yesterday evening! Drawn in Inkscape with a new brush I made today. Theres an orange player skin but all it needs is two white stripes and I'm set! 


Some New Things I Learned About The Inkscape Calligraphy Tool

Experimenting with the look and feel of a new brush. Click to enlarge!

#drawing #inkscape #brush #settings #finetuning #art


I've been tweaking the mass, wiggle, tremor and thinning settings on a new brush in Inkscape this morning! I'm getting ready to get to work off-stream on this perfect sunny breezy fall day! I've tweaked settings and saved brush presets in the past, but this particular session was inspired by an Inkscape tutorial I stumbled upon! You can check it out too if you click help/ tutorials and then the one about 'Calligraphy'. 

Never looked at this menu much before. But a very nice discovery! Click to enlarge!


The Calligraphy tool is the main tool I use when I'm drawing with my pressure sensitive Wacom tablet in Inkscape. There was a lot of great information in this tutorial, but here are two that taught me something I didn't already know!

1.) Changing the width in the middle of a stroke without lifting up from the line your drawing:

Screenshot taken from Inkscape Tutorial, click to enlarge

2.) I learned what Tremor, Wiggle and Mass controls actually do, and I never noticed the fact that the lines you draw will look different depending on the speed of your stroke. This explains a lot but I never realized Inkscape was doing that on purpose. This was very cool to learn, and inspired me to play with settings this morning to create a new, 'realistic' brush to draw with!

Screenshot taken from Inkscape Tutorial, click to enlarge


One of my favorite things about using Inkscape, that over 10 years in, I am still discovering new exciting tools, techniques or tricks. Now that I know about those tutorials that are available, I'll be going back to learn more for sure. Hope you learned something in this post as well. If you want to add something to this or ask any questions hit me up in the comments section below. Happy drawing!
