One of the problems I have with tablet drawing (Wacom, Tablet PC, or otherwise) is the jitteriness that's particularly pronounced in Photoshop. (I'm eagerly awaiting the stable release of InkScape .47, for its eraser tool--the last thing I feel it needs to be a serious competitor for my comic-drawing app of choice. Perhaps because it's vector-based, its line quality is quite nice, and jitter-free.) Do you draw in Photoshop, Bearman?

I do everything with a Wacom (not the cool Cintiq but the dinky one). Never found the same line control that I get with a pen and paper.

I can't keep this daily grind up over the long haul, but I'm starting to think periodic bursts like this might be helpful. I hear you, Whitey.

If I can get an hour of drawing in in a day, I'm doing great. 3 hours would be heaven. And I don't have a wife or kid. But maybe that says more about my (lack of) time management skills than anything... Speaking of which, I should get some stuff done now... You are my hero, man.

The only reason I'd like to pare down from 3 hours is that I realistically only have 1 to 1.5 hours per night to work on a comic, on a good day. During this challenge period, I've been sacrificing sleep to make the daily goals, and... it's painful :) But I'm glad I'm doing it. Even a failed challenge would teach someone a lot.

(P.S. 3 hours including the writing and layout is AWESOME. You don't need to shave any time off that, to my mind.) I can't wait to read your final thoughts when the challenge is completed (see how I nudged you to make a post when you're done?). I think every cartoonist should do this and once school starts up again, I will challenge myself, too. I am so glad you are sharing this with us.
