Hi,

Ok, I am trying to draw a certain character from a video game, but since he isn’t the main character, I can’t find many good pictures of him. Basically, I plan to plug my computer up to the TV and snap some screenshots of him in the game then print them out and use them as guides… One problem though… I don’t know what kind of hardware/software/tools that I need to do this. Please, if anyone knows how to do this, I will be VERY greatful! Thankyou.

Sincerely,

-JoMan.
