WHEN I WAS A YOUNG LAD i saw a great many people i admired drawing on the computer. i wanted to draw on the computer too… and seeing as mspaint was the only thing i had, i decided i would become an mspaint master then use the $$$$ to get photoshop USE WHAT I HAVE, WORK WITH WHAT I GOT.

I’VE SINCE GOTTEN LIKE PHOTOSHOP AND ALSO SAI BUT IT IS. MY HONEST OPINION THAT MSPAINT (all versions prior to vista) IS STILL. THE BEST DRAWING PROGRAM EVER.

AS SUCH, most of the things i’ve drawn these past… five… six years… has been on mspaint! for this tutorial, i will demonstrate how i use the limited number of tools available on paint to create my art!
