Here's a quick drawing I made while taking a break from the PC. It also gave me a chance to try out my new scanner (I love that it can send pictures straight to your phone).

Incidentally, I have a small ask: I'm struggling to get to grips with GIMP and I was wondering, do any of you have some tips I can try? I can't even get my initial sketches or the basic geometric shapes to look right. Granted, it could be as simple as me not being all that comfortable with my tablet yet. I'd be grateful if anyone familiar with the software or who has also had problems getting going could give me some pointers or link me a video, perhaps.

Sorry to ask so much of you guys. I just wanted to give you all some nice art to look at in the future.

Oh and on a side note, I'm well aware of my appalling handwriting. =P

I don't draw in Gimp, Mostly because it's an unrelenting pain in the ass to do so. I do Inkscape vectors first, then use GIMP to color. I know you can do vectors in GIMP, but I find Inkscape to much more intuitive. That said, GIMP takes a lot of practice, and a lot of patience. It does pay off though.

Thanks, Vanner! I'll have a look at Inkscape over the weekend. I'll definitely keep practising with GIMP, even if it takes me the whole season to get anything from it.

And anon1, I know your pain.

We got a low pressure system and a northeast breeze
We got a falling barometer and rising seas
We got the cumulonimbus and a possible gale
We got a Force 9 blowing on the Beaufort scale...
