Day 435: Flagging Behind
Designed a flag for Mr. Keynes, my Rogue Trader Seneschal. I wanted it to symbolise Wealth, Space and War. Feel like I did a good job! This was fun!

Re: Thanqol Learns 2 Draw: Every Step Is The First
So Thanqol, how would you rate your Wacom tablet? I've been looknig on amazon, yours has generally good reviews but some say that it broke quickly and that there's some input lag (0.25s). In your experience is it good, accurate, easy to use, robust etc.?

I don't have anything to compare it against, but I've never had a single issue with it. It does exactly what I need it to.

Inking practise. After watching Archer, which was good, my interest in variable line thickness was rekindled. This was just a quick experiment at that with my old friend, Oda Nobunaga

Dunno what that means, but I'll try to figure it out. New signature right there. :smallsmile:

Part of Thanqol's existing Signiture, also.
Meaning is quite clear, which is to say, the specifics aren't the important part of a myth.
It's quite possible it wasn't literally raining and charger wasn't actually even outside when she got her cutie mark, neither was she necessarily nearly struck by lightning.
(also, think Thanqol would like to see such a story completed even if it isn't historically accurate.
It's masks all the way down and all of them are true, remember.
I haven't designed a flag for a character in ages. It's always a cool thing to do.

There is nothing to regret.
Except all the suffering you've caused by your foolish action.

I certainly don't regret that.

Few minutes past the deadline, but Exalted session went overtime and the sketch happened well earlier in the day so all is good.
We killed the First and Forsaken Lion! And we saved the world! And there were absolutely no civilian casualties! And my character can give up Necromancy and start researching non-omnicidal techniques for dealing with the world! An awesome season finale all round!
