I mentioned earlier that I publish this book elsewhere as well. Actually these first pages are three years old (no need to hurry to other mirrors - I will try to catch up in a couple of weeks). In 2016 I was an absolute beginner regarding digital art. I was also returning to ANY form of drawing after about 10 years of absence. Therefore I am not particularly proud of what we see here and I would like to believe I DID some progress within these three years. On the other hand, these days I am trying to keep a schedule and release one page a week, while here, in 2016, I took all the time in the world to finish a page. Hence, currently the quality sometimes suffers and the potiential progress is harder to notice. Anyway. Here I was working with a "free-ish" Photoshop CS2 which didn't even have the "rotate canvas on the fly" option. Yuck!
