I've drawn "cute," and I've drawn "hot," but I've always struggled to be able to draw "cool." It has a lot to do with my preferred brushes, which have soft edges that allow me to imply shape moreso than define it- an extremely desirable trait when you're either a) Laying down very simple designs and/or b) Portraying an object that's very soft and malleable, the soft, thick edges of which would convey that... but it makes hard-edged action all but impossible. So after years of avoiding the Pen tool, I decided to finally sit down, adjust the tool until it did what I wanted... and finally knock out something that I thought was cool.
What I got out of it was nothing short of a different style, one which I'm pretty excited to explore in the future! I feel like my artistic tool box is finally filling out in a meaningful way.
