Hi y'all :P
Awww boy, i really am most excited about the 0.99s update :P
The Warp function changes everything for me and will do me tons of good, i believe.
i thought it would be a good time to post my pre Warp attempts to document progress ... that i hope to make?
The things i tried to draw so far always came out with crooked proportions :oops:

(Again, sorry for huge, i have no idea how to thumbnail these? :cry: )

Image

i could see all these errors in the relations and wished for a way to nudge things into place.
The frustration drove me to try to tackle isolated things rather than wholes which was kinda nice for a while but really more of an avoidance.

Image

Image

While i of course do see the value in being able to draw something properly without the aid of such features and do admire people capable of doing so, i now feel comfortable enough to approach more complex compositions again knowing there is a Warp to fall back on. :P
Thank you very much Taron for finding such an elegant solution for this.

Just reading that "morning doodle while coffee and (anything)" fills me with a deep sense of appreciation, accomplishment...a hint of pride but a big, warm, fuzzy feeling of true joy! :D
You're really coming to a very strong style here, jim! 8-)
