Thanks to Dan Sawatzky's input on using a Wacom tablet, I decided to invest in one. Man, this is a little different than paper, pencils, erasers, stumps and al of the usual things that are rolling around in the drawer. Dan said that it would probably take a day or two to figure it out. Well, it's been a few days.
I spent most of this week rebuilding my computers due to the "funlove" virus. If I ever find that guy, he is done. I was able to save all job files but unfortunately lost some valuable business files... like accounting stuff. Yeah, I did back things up but that seems to be screwed too.
Back to the Wacom. This is all "hand-done" in corel photopaint. Since I lost most of the extras and settings in the virus crap, it was kind of from bare bones. At one point in creating this, there may have been as many as 13 layers, some as guides and others to use as a solid ground behind layers as I worked on them. This took about 2 hours.

Jeffrey, That’s very impressive work period. Factor in only two hours of work (fun) and I'm with Mark waiting to see the results when you are more comfortable with the tablet.
