Yes, yes, yes to color printing trouble! I recently did a piece, scanned it, looks great on the computer, printed it and the color was way darker and nothing like what I did! Still looks good, just not what I wanted.
This is a super fun Alice! And even more so as I hear your story and process!

the colours give it an old school victorian feel 😀

This was really helpful. I always enjoy finding out how other artists come up with their ideas. The dress you chose is definitely very inspiring, I love the volume of the skirt as well. Very nice to watch, thank you for sharing!

I started waching this channel to learn how to draw horses, and I'm still here to this day!

I've been thinking about getting a new tablet too! Mostly because I'm so used to drawing on my iPad that it's really hard for me to use my Wacom Bamboo Pen and Touch again and I want to upgrade to a proper pen display lol 😅 I'm always unsure of what tablet to get though because reviews on a single product tend to be all over the place and I get too scared to make a decision

Wondering if anyone can help me... I just can't get my stressed out brain to work in these covid times.
I'm about to order some paper. It's just that I can't remember what the brand is. I've had these paper for ages but my brain just won't function 😟.
They come "wrapped" in a yellow paper with the brand in white letters repeatedly all over, I buy them I packs similar to printer paper. Anyone who have an idea of what it is? I know exactly what they look like, it's just my brain that can't spit out the brand. 😫
