Is it tho? xD
I was watching a 'how to draw hair' tutorial. It looked so easy and smooth in the video... and I was fighting and getting angry with the stylus and all the brushes i had...
i hated it, hehe xD

Yes. Yes it is XD
This is what I do when drawing hair though...I usually sketch and outline on different layers so I can resize or fix it without disturbing the rest of the lineart or sketch (I always draw the hair last) if that makes sense? I also draw it in a different colour like red or blue.

It took me forever to get used to drawing hair. And faces are such a pain sometimes XD
I use a mixture of soft and cel shading in my art. I'm also trying to make my lines a bit thinner too XD
May I ask what program you use to draw? For me it's Clip Studio Paint/Manga Studio 5

Sometimes i have issues drawing faces too... specially giving expressions to a character D: it's amazing how just a single line can change a lot in a face..
I've been using my old and trusty (not) friend called Photoshop CS6 since it was launched like... 6 years ago i think? (Win 7, Ps CS6... i really need to upgrade my software xD..)

I have issues with drawing longer, more mature looking faces. As well as different angles, which I'm trying to work on. And def different body types as well. I want to make a webcomic, but it would be uninteresting if every character had the same body type and face. XD
Yeah. Some characters look better if you use more straight and sharp lines in their face, while others look better if more curved and softer lines are used. But other times you can use a mix of the two.
Oh yes, Photoshop XD I had it on my old computer. There was a time I could actually draw without using a stabilizer XD
I want Clip Studio Paint EX because it has more features, but it's 250 dollars, which isn't bad but...still XD

Oh I am so bad for that! It's a habit that is VERY difficult to break unfortunately XD
You can draw backgrounds, too. I struggle with those.
I just wanna create a diverse cast of characters-of different races, body-types, etc. For webcomics and stories, it's probably better to start small, with a shorter story and only a few characters, especially if you're creating one for the first time XD
I always struggled with perspective. Fortunately for artists, the internet is full of tutorials XD I have a friend who is VERY good at perspective and landscape painting, but doesn't sell their paintings or do commission work. It's a shame, too, because their art is very nice and is done on large, expensive canvases and they spend SO much time on each painting.
It is good. It's only $50 for pro, but it doesn't have as many features as photoshop (i think...?). It's a program marketed as a comic/manga creation tool, but I use it for illustration of course XD It has pre-made panels, screen tone, speech bubbles, effects, and all that fun stuff XD I really like it haha I've been using it for a few years now. I wanna update to EX though...it looks much nicer XD

Backgrounds are very difficult haha XD
My first idea for a webcomic is a slice of life, four panel type comic. I've made the main cast already haha I just need to establish their personalities, and come up with an idea each week or so for a comic strip XD
Oh, definitely! Also tumblr XD
Wait a minute, there's a FREE Photoshop? XD Getting manga studio 5 ex was one of the main reasons I started up commissions, along with saving up to buy my cosplays. I am more than willing to work for what I want, but my commissions are rather cheap rn, so it'd take a while XD

Haha yeah. It's pretty fun. I've only done one cosplay so far and it was awesome XD lots of people wanted my picture XD
Yeah I thought of getting it before I heard of manga studio, but manga studio is def cheaper XD I only remember using Photoshop regularly back in high school, in a photography class I took :3

Haha XD
There is actually a 100% FREE software out there called Krita. It has a stabilizer and lots of different brushes to choose from. And did I mention that it's free? Hahaha XD

That happened to me A LOT on my old computer. I really hated Windows 8 because it just... wasn't that great.
But yeah, I believe Krita is compatible with Windows 7 and newer :3 I believe you can download free brush packs for it, but I'm not entirely sure XD

But yeah free stuff! Can't go wrong with free stuff XD

Hahaha XD
I haven't used SAI in aaaaageeess. I had the free trial before, but I don't really care for it, because it doesn't have that many features. I believe it is the same price as MS5....XD
