Re: New modder here, just have a question
My Sgqwonkian retreat ship and the two pictures of the Sgqwonk themselves were drawn in photoshop. It was enough of a pain I've pretty much stopped doing things that way. I do most of my modding on a laptop and the tiny built-in mousepad just isn't good for that.
That's part of why I've been mostly lacking new ships in my mods. That, and because lining up the frames and lights annoys me.
Most of the images in Drives'R'Us and Teeming With Life were taken from websites or a clipart disk, and then modified with color overlays, various filters, and the photoshop clone brush and magnetic lasso.
My artistic skills are far more refined with a pencil or paintbrush than with a mouse, so I may just start drawing on paper, scanning, and then doing some touch-up digitally.
Until quite recently my scanner was packed in storage in another State.
