nice. What software are you using to draw/paint this?

I’m using Inktober to force myself to draw everyday, I’d say this counts! And I really like the water color look of your work.

I bought a refurbished 19" iPad Pro from 2015 along with a 1st gen Apple pencil. As far as trying to keep the costs to a minimum while getting a large screen tablet with a sufficiently sensitive stylus; it works out perfectly. I use mostly Adobe Fresco - it has a powerful brush engine, including a live watercolor brush (that’s what I mostly went with in this painting).

Cool thread! Keep up the good work.

I’ve been having fun with painting technical stuff; today it was an old Geiger counter in my possession that I converted into a clock by sticking an arduino board in there

I think my favorite one remains the desk from three days ago:

keeping up a painting a day is the hardest by far.

Hi, welcome to the forum!
I like the art, the technical paintings have a nice aesthetic to them.

Hi, thank you! I got scooped up by a long-term denizen when he spotted me rambling about electrical engineering and art on discord and redirected me here.
Again, thank you! I agree. I should paint more of the things in my collection.
Ahhh it’s a really old project I’d have to dig back a bit to gather it up; but once I have some free time - why not.
