The shading is going pretty well so far, though I think I might want to change it to some warmer colors, which may require starting over. When doing shading with my mouse, I would do it all on the same layer, but with the tablet, I was able to put it on a separate layer and already changed the shading color once rather easily. However, after having blended it in a bit more, it's not quite as easy to just change the hue of the shading. I might also want to slightly alter the base skin color to be more like how the color appears in the .jpg I posted. In the file itself, it actually has a slight greenish tinge to it {as does the hair}, which was intentional because I had a certain lighting in mind, but I'm thinking of trying something warmer since the last few pieces {aside from Taus} I went heavy on the cool colors.

Turned out better than I thought my first tablet drawing would, that's for sure. I got carried away on adding lines to the hair, though emotion_facepalm With my mouse, I usually used a brush that would do multiple lines of varying widths, but for this I just stuck with the basic round brushes to get familiar with my capabilities. The next step is to start experimenting with using other brushes and see if I can find ones that work better for different purposes.
One thing that I really like about this tablet is how easy it is for me to change brush sizes. I've got a wacom intuos5, medium sized. I had to disable one of the buttons on the stylus because I don't hold pens/pencils "properly" and therefore kept accidentally pressing that button emotion_facepalm I had to also disable probably half of the hand gestures because it was going crazy on me and interpreting my hand dragging on it {due to my improper way of holding a pencil} as a variety of hand gestures.
Being able to zoom and scroll using hand gestures is pretty handy, but is taking more getting used to than actually drawing with it. I still use my mouse a lot for picking tools and whatnot, but the more I use my tablet, the more I'll start recognizing what I need to make shortcuts for.
I think in the next experiment, I will also be trying to ink using the freeform pen tool. Freeform pen might not be as tedious as the regular pen tool and may in the end create smoother lines than drawing them by hand {because I can't draw a straight line to save my life stressed } But if it proves just as tedious {which it very well may be}, then I'll probably reserve inking with the pen tool for special projects that I really want to have the smoothest of lines with, since inking is a stage that I get stuck at rather often stare
