If you've not seen them, these are fantastic http://frenden.com/post/41066125217/manga-studio-5-brushes Frendens Manga studio brushes. So much nicer than the standard ones and way better than anything I could come up with myself while tinkering with the settings. 

That looks great! Any ideas how much it'll be....?

Very nice, Ant. Great use of 'Kirby Crackle', too! 

Great efforts from all!

1: Team Resyk. Fantastic work as ever from Neil, but also an idea with legs, if you'll pardon the pun. I could easily see this running in the prog. Do it Tharg and get your boy Neil to draw it!

2: Motor pool crew. Great image and clever idea.

3: Villain team-up. Top art skillz.

Anyone know if there any cheap/free alternatives to Illustrator available for Windows?

Wow, love that cover. The colours are...... pleasing to me! 

Cheers for that Jim, that looks like a great set-up. Definitely something to think about. 

On a slightly different subject, I'm looking at getting an iMac soon. Would the lower priced 21 incher Handle manga studio, ect....?

Some of you guys may be interested in this. Looks awesome and yet another reason I wish I had a Mac!

Never heard of the Bosto one before. How is it going for you, Antodonnell? The inclusion of hotkeys interests me.....

That's pretty damn scary and I mean that in the best way possible. Can't wait to see more progress on this. 

That's incredible, Jon! 

Thank you Woolly! Still getting to grips with Manga studio 5 ex. The colouring tools are quite close to being excellent, but Painter is still my numero uno. 

Here are Frendens thoughts on the above cintiq alternative, the
