Messing around with my tablet since I finally have a setup that allows me to use it. This is only the second or third time that I've used it, so be gentle :c

The original lines were done by hand and I coloured over them. I wanted it to be kinda painterly so I did it all on one layer using only brushes set to 'multiply'.

The texturing is too obvious but other than that I'm happy with it :>

Tablets make everything awesomer.

I need one :c

Fantastic colors, very unique. And the tattoo makes this perfect.

Nice choice of colors. I really like it and it makes me want a tablet even more.

Thanks guys!
Heh, maybe I should get a job in advertising :B

This might sound patronising but I wouldn't suggest getting a tablet until you've got a pretty good grounding in traditional techniques. It makes using it much easier if you're fairly well practiced with real media.
It does make working digitally an awful lot easier though, even thought it takes some getting used to. It's really nice being able to work digitally but still get a range of tone like you can using pencils :>

Also don't get a really expensive model right off the bat, go for a cheaper model and then work up if you find that you like it.
