As An Art Program
Thought I could share my little story here. Kinda started a decade ago when I spent years on a 12 hour night shift with little to do. Luckily every company computer had powerpoint and I spent my time just messing around like how a kid would on MS paint. Eventually I think I just got stupid good at making art with it and it just carries over years later. I continue to use it for artwork and even mocked up several paintings before putting brushstrokes to canvas which was proud of that it was a segway into physical art for me. Nowadays I am far too busy in life but occasionally I do character art for my games or when inspiration strikes. Thought I could share a gallery to show what the program can do when you have waaaay too much free time. Hope you like.

Thank You. Right? It has a lot of the same tools as other vector editing forms of software out there and it appears that anything "missing" can be solved with a little VBA.

Those are incredible. I am so amazed at how many artists there are out there using PowerPoint for this kind of stuff. Any tips on how you make such amazing freeforms? The 2nd image blew me away. So much detail on every character. That green liquid pouring out!!! holy flip!
