dimisfit asked: I never even knew people argued about Sai vs Photoshop until you posted that. It seems so... pointless. Isn't it just preference? I think you made a really good point about people getting riled up over an image with text over it, haha!

Try a little harder.
Though I will say that the power outage has given me time to do things I don’t normally always do. Broke out the stargazing app on my iPad (Sky Safari — get it, it’s awesome) last night in the dark and read up on everything in the night sky above me. I spent like 4 hours studying stuff in our solar system. I’ve always had a way-better-than-average common knowledge of space...

MORE POWERRRRRR
Long story short, my apartment has been without power now for 2 days, due first to my forgetfulness to continue power service at my new address starting from September, then due to the incompetency of the power company lackeys today to turn it back on without me being home. (They could’ve done it, the main power breaker isn’t even in my apartment. It’s in the basement.)

You got it: Worst movies ever →
alexds1:
Cafiffle reminded me that the movie 10,000 BC exists. While it is really really not a great movie, it saves itself because you know it doesn’t take itself seriously. So it is not as anywhere near as bad as any of the following films. I can’t even talk about any of these three in casual…

Graffiti vs Tagging vs Art
Every once in a while I get asked if I consider graffiti to be art or not. Graffiti isn’t my thing, I don’t really get it, but I’m not against it in any way — of course it’s art, after all, art is defined as a work of creativity and imagination, and oftentimes has no purpose other than to be looked at.

aamukherjee asked: Hey there! Before anything else, I have to say that your work is awesome! But my question is whether you can recommend some settings for my Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch. I understand that there's no 'universal' setting, but a few presets for general drawing + rendering would be much appreciated!
