Yeah, I really liked these ones too. I think due to the economic crisis, the project I was working on has been put on an "indefinite hold". It's a shame because they were awesome clients to work for, super receptive, excited about the process, and they always paid on time! Thanks Andre. Yeah, I really liked these ones too.

The images are pulled from my Flickr automatically, and if it doesn't work on Safari there is not really anything I can do I am afraid. It's a surprise though. Hopefully it's a massive fault with your computer only ;) It's all built from a thing called Indexhibit, and I am not very CSS savvy at all. I will have a look into it though. Should be OK in trusty old Firefox though. I will be tinkering with this site soon anyway. Cheers! Hey Mike,

If I said that God himself wrote it on a giant typewriter on a cloud, would that be as unbelievable as what’s inside the book? Well I think it was ghost written somewhat.

]]> Comment on Flash sketching by Mark Leggett http://markleggett.wordpress.com/2009/01/27/flash-sketching/#comment-82 Mark Leggett Wed, 28 Jan 2009 02:23:33 +0000 http://markleggett.wordpress.com/?p=250#comment-82 Yeah, I don't mind how this turned out as a sketch only, but I am still a long way away from producing nice finished line art. I'm having a play around with the settings of my tablet and so on, and I might seek out someone with a similar tablet to play on that. The firmer the brush setting on my tablet, the better so far. I later tried putting a piece of paper over the tablet, and the added friction made my lines a little slower and nicer, so I just have to practice! Great tutorial, and blog by the way, and thanks for the comment/tech support!

I only stumbled over here because of a Google Alert (ha). Drawing in Flash definitely takes some getting used to...it might be your tablet, but you also might be drawing too fast, or too zoomed out. It took me a good year to be completely comfortable with drawing with a tablet in Flash. Sometimes it can help to practice writing your name... (or practice hand-lettering). You definitely have the chunky line going on here--which I often see coming out people who first try Flash. Drop me a line if you need any pointers. And thanks for the shout-out. Howdy!
