Nowtun, I'm getting a graphics tablet for xmas
.. I got fed up with texturing Abe coz the seams are obvious due to the colour difference. I would carry on, but then I had a more adventurous idea to repaint the whole lot in photoshop. So, I can show you the colour difference if you want, and then you decide whether I try to finish them and try doing some photoshopping to blend the seams together (I'd find that tricky), or I can wait until xmas and then attempt to repaint the whole thing, which could turn out crap, amateur-ish, or truly awesome. I think I have the potential to make it awesome, but I'd need to learn some things.
PS. Do you use a graphics tablet?
