//?Progress!!! (7th time's the charm!)

//?It's been a while since I've been able to art, but I'm rather happy with this improvement. It's not much of an improvement, but it was an experiment that quickly ended in success. Comments and critiques are very much appreciated!

/*I've started playing with the brush settings, the biggest being the use of the [transfer] setting. In the past when I wanted a gradient that had to look hand-drawn or sketchy I would just draw with a high opacity. This worked well for small things, but for larger things such as the hills in [link] it is impossible to shade evenly, and those evil white streaks are created. With the [transfer] setting, it is easy to make an imperfect gradient, while still keeping it from getting too streaky.

The way I'd been making the ion trails in the past was lassoing a triangle behind the engine and adding a gradient. This time I lassoed the area, but used a [transfer] brush instead of a gradient. I like the texture it gave them, even though I kinda went overkill on it. (then again, there is no kill like over-kill [link]

As for the random wings and massive bloom around the engines, those were two things I added while waiting for the file to upload. I can't tell if there is too much ion trail on my computer (screen has funny contrast again), but I think I might toy with the wings.

Oh, I also added a minion ship on the left side, but it's small enough I don't think I have to worry about over-crowding just yet.

//?Stay Happy!
