I like your pencil work though and your watercoloring is wonderful, although I guess scanning can become rather tedious.
No, scanning isn't a problem, my scanner is fast. And I'm definitely not moving away from pencil/ink/watercolor, because I love working that way. I mostly want to use the Wacom for fixing details of my traditional, scanned artwork. It would come really handy if I could add bits to the artwork here and there, like when I edit out parts of the original drawing.
But hey, I'm making progress. For this icon here I added Shep's shoulder, plus lots of black lines in the background (which was just a screencap and clashed too much with my painted Sheppard) and it wasn't overly awkward. But it only works in this tiny size; the original still looks pretty scratchy.
fiddled around with the sensitivity
That's one thing, mine doesn't seem to register sensitivity... maybe it can do that and I'm just missing something. No matter how much pressure I apply, the line always remains the same so it's useless for more intricate work (even if I were able to draw a straight line ;)
