Procreate is currently mine, if only because I can't afford a cintiq for Photoshop and I suck balls at using my regular tablet with it so I just stuck to traditional media.

I was so used to the efficiency of Clip Studio on the computer, that for months after I got the iPad Pro I searched for suitable substitute. In the end they released it for the iPad and I had to have it.

Lately I've been discovering how pleasant is Procreate to use. Not as fast as CSP, but drawing is just joyful. For Procreate tutorials, I really enjoy the variety of work he produces: https://www.youtube.com/zatransis

I prefer CSP, though I use Photoshop CC2017 some times. I kinda have just never learned PS properly, which is partially why.

I have a Intuos 4 medium, but it's recently broken after a few years of reliable service. One thing I never really liked about it, as I really enjoy just drawing pencil/paper, is the hand to eye co-ord when using a screenless tablet - it always felt unnatural. Next week when I get paid I'm gonna pick me up an xp-pen 15.6, hope it works well.

SAI, but starting to think about switching to CSP or maybe even back to photoshop because of the limitations.
SAI 2 has most of what I want, but not quite polished enough for me yet.

I own actually own CSP but not a big fan of the interface, might have to spend some time to customize and get used to it if SAI 2 keeps getting developed at a snails pace.

Hardware is a used Intuos 4 Medium I got off ebay for like 80$, was in really good condition too.
Replaced my Intuos 4 small which was starting to get a little too cramped to draw on for long periods of time.

Currently saving up for a Cintiq or something like it, just bought a new desk to eventually accommodate it.

Intuos Pro Large (2017, don't know the exact model off hand) - Krita

After the Kickstarter they had, Krita has matured A LOT since I first used it in 2010. When we got brush masking in 4.0, I basically packed my shit, canceled my CC membership, and moved to Krita completely.

My only gripe is that the bugs with the brush tagging system I've bitched about for years still exist. I've been meaning to try and tackle the issues myself, but the code they use to build the XML files for their tags are impenetrable for my skill level. I'll just stick to drawing and complaining.

Man, you'd be amazed how little you can learn in ten years when you're too proud to go look at other people's process. It took me five years to discover the soft brush.

Anyway, I tested out tracing cups and rulers and the pressure sensitivity on it and it seems to work fine, so I guess I'll just have to go to a store and see if I notice a difference.

i don't understand how graphics tablets work for sure, but in 10 years, the quality of materials and design simply HAS to have improved. i am almost 100% sure a 2017 tablet is going to be more responsive on a modern OS, due to more sensors, more/better transistors, or at the very least, its drivers will be designed for modern OS's.

I generally agree witg your methodology but when a good Intuos costs 200$+ and its direct counterpart costs 60$, something's fucked up.

Macs are worse than PCs. Costly figurines are sometimes worse in quality than knock offs relative to price. A costly Samsung screen is not really alot better than its competitors. A costly Nikey jacket isnt really made of better fabric than no-name brands. Same with earphones. This rule is a good rule of thumb but just that, it doesnt factor into it the calculation of branding power. In 2018 Wacom is no longer the only correct answer, the question should instead be " how much are you willing to fork over and what it is that you actually need?"

3 - This was literally my first digital environment that wasn't just a quick color study or a line sketch, I had so many things I was trying to focus and work on throughout the painting that smaller details just went unnoticed.

>>3531169
I like it but I wouldn’t recommend it.
The reasons I like it are because of the 10/10 anti-aliasing on the lines and because I can use Nvidia shadowplay to easily record while I work. It has some really neat tools that are probably in photoshop but are easier to pick up on in this program. Particularly the ability to make an entire layer of say, lineart one single color.
The reasons I dislike it are that it crashes way too often, it only has its own file format that isn’t compatible with anything else, PNG and JPEG, and you’re limited to 8 layers per piece so you’re forced to merge a lot. There’s also no reason for a PNG of anything to be almost 100MB but a lot of my final rendered pieces turn out that way. I use Autodesk to rerender it to a reasonable size.
The only reason that I use it is that I’m attached to the few things it does well. I recommend people use and get attached to a different program. But a demo of Black Ink is available.

A used Cintiq is a better investment, or one of its competitors. Hell you can still get a new Cintiq that is both bigger and better than the iPad 12" for cheaper. IPad needs pricey peripherals (the pen is like 100$).

In that same amount you can also buy a MobileStudio Pro.

I've got an intuos pro medium right now, I want to shift into a display tablet soon.

I'm really on the fence about pulling the trigger on this pre-order since it's like $100 cheaper than it will be on launch, or getting an iPad 9.7 with the pencil. The fact that they're offering such a steep discount on the Kamvas has me a little worried it might actually be badly reviewed and they're trying to squeeze some cash out of preorders though. Still, $300 is an excellent price compared to Wacom. Cintiq is a bit outside my budget, sadly.

Are there any other good options?

I used a legit version of SAI that I bought way back in the day (like, 2008 or 09?) up until very recently, finally transferred to CSP. I liked SAI because it was so lightweight and easy to sketch in, but ultimately I was having issues with it in terms of quality (would save at poor quality, dunno if it was some bug I could've fixed or what). Just kind of graduated from it in general anyway. Tried using SAI 2 for a while but wasn't feeling it.

Mainly I sketch in CSP because I like the feeling of sketching in it compared to Photoshop (CS5, old shit). But I prefer using Kyle brushes and other painting brushes in Photoshop, so that's what I do for color and often lining as well.

For tablets I used a Wacom Cintiq 13HD for a long time, but the display was constantly shutting off in its last year of life and I finally needed a new one. Didn't want to drop 1000 dollars on another tablet though because I didn't have the money, so instead I gambled with a Huion kamvas gt-156hd for about $500. NEVER EVER GOING BACK TO WACOM. This huion is bigger and just as good if not better than the wacom. Back when I bought the wacom there were no real alternatives for quality tablets, but now there's a ton, so yeah, fuck them.

Also, Lazy Nezumi is a godsend.

Tip for people who can't afford surface books, ipads, cinteechs, whatever: try out a refurbished Thinkpad, nominately the x series. I recommend x220T or x230T (they must have the "T" suffix, which stands for tablet).
They tend to be cheap (compared to others), durable, often equipped with good processors, ssd and RAM, and the screen has pressure sensitivity ofc. It's a laptop in itself.
Make sure the one you buy has multitouch function, some versions only allow pen input, no finger input (although pen only input isn't so bad I guess).

I have one that's done me really well and I love sketching on it. It's heavy, worn and all but it's worth the price it is.

sorry for shilling, I just think it's really good for the price it tends to be.

As a starting from nowhere beginner I personally find the screen on an ipad a lot easier to draw on than a non-display tablet like the Intuous pro. Maybe it’s because I bought the large pro and it seems too big for me.

Though it seems harder to measure and find the right sizes for things on the ipad. Like proportion is a lot harder.

It’s probably because I suck, but maybe it’s due to the different aspect ratio on the screen compared to a montior.

IPS is legitimate better but is a catch 22. I started experimenting with more diluted colors and got feedback that it was hard to see. I was confused until I remembered that TN panels would dilute it even more so I had to go back and adjust saturation and contrast.

I have a very decent PC (16GB ram and 8th gen i5 overclocked) but I just cannot get Krita to run smoothly on it. It stutters periodically and there is a perceivable delay when I draw that just isnt there on ps or sai. Wtf do?

personally, the brushes are my favourite part (especially the fuck off massive daub pack).

I dunno though dude, I've literally only tried sai, csp and PS and only use the last two any more. CSP is on sale fairly often so if you want to torrent & then buy on sale, or something, just to try it out - it's essentially a more indept sai, really.

I have trouble deciding on a canvas size.... Like do I make it fuckhuge 6000x6000 at 500dpi and just make the brushes bigger? Pencils on a canvas that size are like a nanometer wide when the canvas is zoomed out so the whole canvas is in view. Do you just zoom in for each section you want to do? seems like it would be annoying to have to keep zooming and unzooming to draw things

>>3560988
Well it got popular before csp was well known and you were either using a pirated Photoshop or the freeware Gimp. Or Corel painter if you were the oddball more into painting.
So when it came out it was the perfect storm. It was immediately simpler and easier to understand with a good GUI that's not too minimalistic so it stole users who were intimidated by Photoshop. It had tools to get better line art with our shitty tablets or mice, was cheap enough for moralfags to purchase and steal Gimp users, or feel less bad/paranoid about pirating if you were a kid. Also yes it being Japanese did help draw in some weebs attention. It's also exceedingly easy to pirate with a small file size, no torrenting or installation. Just zip your cracked copy and share freely in deviant art or directly to friends.

That said, I still find myself preferring Sai over possibly better competitors like CSP because of the familiarity and GUI but I've been trying to experiment more.

The nearly unlimited free trial helped. Sometimes, I'm surprised people still use it until I remember that CSP was pretty awful to use for various reasons until like 1.4, or around when the brush engine was completely overhauled and they made the menus more photoshop-like. The sheer number of brush packs and deviantart tutorials was also a factor.

I think the big thing is that Ps has never been inherently meant for drawing and painting and feels like a photo editor with mspaint tacked on, because it is. Especially in the earlier versions. In addition to the weeb appeal, I believe that's what made CSP so popular in more recent times.

I tried using a cheap $80 tablet when I was around 16 but it was a piece of shit and really discouraged me. It couldnt draw straight lines or would not be accurate relative to the stylus.

Pic related, drew it about 3 weeks ago with watercolor and ink. It lost a lot of detail and fluidity after coloring it and got really muddy. I think the digital medium would help me accelerate my learning and encourage me to produce more rapidly.

no
don't blame the tool/medium.
paper and pencil is still good for learning.

but for your money, a used medium intuos pro(with pen tilt) is good.

Another thing is

A cintiq or wacom alternative can go bad at any given time and if u have a job to do and dont know how to use an intuos medium or offbrand equiviliant ur gonna get fucked

Its best to be capable of using the most basic tools that are readily available so you can be sustainable.

I have an ipad pro 12.9 and love it to death but i know training myself to use my intuos is invaluable.

>google wat do
>you literally have to disable all touch features in the device to stop this, no matter the program. from what I can tell

what in tarnation, is this how it be or am I retarded? I don't want to disable all the damn buttons and touch features, you'd think this would be the #1 feature they would unfuck and make easy to disable

Procreate and Sketchbook Pro (the original not the crap version they have now that forces you to make an account, too bad it crashes on startup now) on my iPad Pro and Manga Clip Studio on my Surface Pro 4, unless I decide to use it as a second device to my actually decent PC, then it's whatever program then, Krita, PS, etc.

Strongly recommend Procreate and Manga Clip Studio respectively.

I'm a newbie using Deco01
my friend gave me a license for Painstormstudio said that it has powerful brush system or someshit I don't know
but so far it has better UI than Krita so I like it

That's why you buy warranties. Anyways iPads > Intuos and Cintiqs ( except for the newest Cintiq models )

Hi, I'm looking to get a laptop that can comfortably run Photoshop, and has a decent display.
is this realistic in the $300-$400 range?

[Anonymous No.3577818]

>>3577733
Most could run PS, but getting a good IPS display with accurate colour temperature might be a bit of a bitch for that price

Question for SAI fags, but I noticed that SAI1 seems to be 'smoother' and even sharper with brushes and textures; overall appealing to me more despite SAI2 being arguably better for visuals and function.
Is there some sort of list that explains the differences between SAI1 and SAI2? It's driving me nuts and I don't know what to stick with.

[Anonymous No.3577869]

>>3577859
I began with sai and used it for ages, when I got hold of sai 2 I just learned to use that instead despite the differences, since you'll accustom over time and sai 2 is still being developed, so more and more features and fixes are coming out. Also sai 2 is 64 bit.

Id say go to sai 2, the lines and brushes are still heavenly smooth compared to krita, PS and CSP. Youll be able to re create your old sai tools albeit by fiddling with more settings, but youll manage eventually.

Thanks for the reply, I've been drawing with SAI2 for a long while now but recently got tempted to go back since I couldn't seem to manage to recreate the same feel and look of a few older brushes and a number of other things.

i have it.

pretty good you can use photoshop brushes.

for some reason though i got back into CSP, both desktop and ipad and man it's pretty fucking good.

the monthly fee sucks ass but man it's so nice to use the comic feature, i can emulate a digital sketchbook doing so and there's so much control with the UI.
