I really have enjoyed looking at this picture!! It is so mysterious. I really want to know where the ship is going too. >^_^

Ahh the wacom. I just finished programming one into my "self-built" touchscreen keyboard. They are rather nifty. Ten out of ten alaister.

10 from me nice picture

cheers alistair

10 pts...like rbrice1981 said....mystic!!!!!

I wouldn't attempt it with a mouse, it would be like trying to draw with a brick - the graphics pen behave's like a proper pencil/brush in that it is pressure sensitive, the harder you press the thicker and darker/more saturated the stroke - that sort of thing. Plus, a graphics pen feels more natural in your hand when drawing or painting so its more intuitive to use. If you want to do stuff like this then you really need a tablet of some kind. Check out eBay, there are always loads going on there.

is it acutally posible to do these sort of sketches jus wih a mouse??? or do you have to have that digital drawing thing :P

These might help 'new' Wacom users -

very nice...mystic!

the concept is really nice. Hopefully it stays cold because if that bridge thingie collapses on them, that's going to leave a mark.
