SEVEN Day 6: The Indian Breakfast

At morning, right after we dropped our daughters at school, we stopped by at Indian restaurant near our home. Son wanted chapati & we wanted chai haleeb (milk tea + ginger).

The restaurant was crowdy as usual, mostly taxi drivers. Yummy food & not a shabby place!

SEVEN Day 5: The Mural

"Kids. DO NOT draw on the wall! You have paper and...

Nevermind."



Those rebelious little artists cannot resist to 'scratch' the white canvas, the wall.

SEVEN Day 4: The Dentist

We have appointment with the dentist today, kids. Brace yourself!
Let's make our teeth healthy & strong!

Sketching Our Previous Adventure

Based on the photo from our previous trips, I make some sketches with Galaxy Note. I think it's possible (and convenient) to make on-the-spot sketching with it on a family travelling.

Next travelling, we're going to bring the Galaxy Note & do some on-the-spot sketching along with our kids.

How good is Samsung Galaxy Note II? See for yourself :D


Software: AutoDesk Sketchbook Mobile

Thanks to its speedy quad-core 1.6 GHz processor, it feels more responsive for quick hatch & sketch.



  

The display is still bright & comfortable to use under bright sunlight. Suits better for on-the-spot outdoor sketching. The best sketching tablet so far, with bonus features: phone & internet :D

Who need scanner when you can draw digitally on a paper?

Wacom Inkling + Autodesk SketchBook Pro (1)

Apparently the Autodesk SketchBook Pro (and Express) can open Wacom Inkling file natively. If you want to keep the drawing in bitmap format, better open it in SketchBook Pro/Express.

With one sketch file from Wacom Inkling, we can create tons of brush tool variation. You draw with (Inkling) ballpoint on a paper, end up as pencil on SketchBook Pro/Express.
