Does this look different? Ok, it’s an experiment! I am working on creating an video of a napkin actually being created. I thought I would start in Photoshop and use the ‘actions’ feature to record me drawing one using my Wacom digitizing tablet. It didn’t work. It drew the whole thing only to find that it recorded each color change I did, just not the actual drawing! Oh well.
A good lesson for all you budding artists out there. Do NOT expect to have good results for quite a while when you try a new medium, whether oil paints or a Wacom tablet. I am showing mine anyway, so you can see my progress (if I ever try it again, that is). My next attempt will probably be to use my actual camera to record each stroke as I make it. I expect that will take me a long time.
But I am not tired of thinking nor have I reached a conclusion!

>Yes, I have recorded parts before but in this case it didn't record the stroke of the pen on the wacom tablet. I will figure it out eventually. It was a good first experiment, always have to start somewhere, right?
>I like the colours. :D:D:D
You can change the actions feature to only record bits, but I have no idea how to do it, I've only ever seen the finished product.
I just noticed the "buttons" at the bottom of the page. I love them (:
