Hi, fairybacon! You're doing good with computer drawing so far! Since Gimp is free, I'll probably get it soon. I like using shade tools so I can make it look better, but the program that I use does not have the right shading.

Welcome to the world of digital art, I'm sure you'll love it! The neat thing about digital drawing is 1) you can use the Undo key, 2) you can have as many layers as you want, 3) no art materials to buy, and 4) the image editing programs have a bunch of useful tools and effects that you can use.

Do you use a tablet or a mouse? Because if your pictures were drawn with a mouse, your lines are so smooth! I know I'd never be able to learn to draw with a mouse like that.
If you'd like to draw more complicated things, then a tablet would be super useful, especially since you have Paint Tool SAI installed. That program creates much cleaner lines when you draw with a tablet compared to GIMP. Usually I use the Path tool on GIMP if I need to draw smooth lines. I have a short tutorial on how to use the Path tool (Step 2 of MLP art tutorial), or there are other tutorials available online as well.

I'd suggest to experiment with as many different tools as you can find, I find it to be the quickest way to learn how to use GIMP. Layers, Dodging & Burning, Airbrush, etc. are all super useful for drawing.

I hope you'll share more art with us soon.
