Zooming in is good only for adding details after you place the overall sketch down. Otherwise you are tend to do mistakes when you zoom in all the time.

What is that supposed to mean? Monitors have different pixel densities, pieces of art can be drawn in any resolution depending on their use, so why on earth does an arbitrary percentage matter?

I hope you're not one of the people who also thinks that the DPI value does something in digital art.

i need to stay zoomed in because i only have 13 inch tablet, if i had a 24 inch i would just keep it at full canvas size...

More than 100% and lines get blurry or pixelated depending on brush's aliasing, lower than that and it loses detail on any screen whether it's 8k or a 1024 screen.
DPI only affects how dense are the pixels when printing, what printing has to do with zooming in while you work?

>> No.5137094

Aliasing doesn't blur pixels. You meant anti aliasing.

So you think that it makes a difference to drawing expecience or "losing detail" whether you're zoomed in 100% on a 2000 pixel image or zoomed in 50% on a 4000 pixel image?

I guess 75 IQ was too optimistic.

>> No.5141710

I sketch while zoomed in and i blow up the picture to do the lineart. Then I zoom in again to do lineart.
I know I’m dumb and probably making it harder on myself. I just been doing that this entire time.
I guess I never saw how others do it and try it myself.

>> No.5141726

>>5137774
Not that anon. Think about it for like a single second : if you zoom further than 100% you are now zoomed beyond the pixel ratio of your canvas. It's gonna start to look like a blurry mess.

He is right, the only thing that matters is to have a healthy amount of pixels in your viewport, ideally 100% or a clean fraction (50 or 25%)

Artifacts adding details? Excuse me?

My brushes don't add artifacts at any zoom level. But you forgot that the question was about the idiotic notion of "sketching at 100% zoom", as if there was any magic to that number. How is it different from having twice the resolution and sketching at 50% zoom? Everything will be the same size on the screen.

Listen, it's fine to zoom in and out as you work. I don't see why you wouldn't inspect and fix all the details before you finish a picture.

>> No.5141806

>>5136932
This is correct. 100% in PS means 1:1 screen pixel to file pixel. An image displayed at 100% on a non-Retina screen will look smaller than on one.

Generally I work between 50-150%, depending on what I'm doing. I have the right hand scroll wheel on my Cintiq set to zoom in and out at will - in traditional art you do the same thing - you work in a normal position, and occasionally get up to look at it from further away, to see how it all blends together and overall composition and value/hue checking. Zoom in for details, like leaning in to a painting or drawing when doing fine detail.

Pro Tip: more than 200% zoom on an average sized art canvas (6kx6k for example) will too small for the eye to see when printing. If you can see pixels on the screen for a file size that big, you're too zoomed in.

>>5141764
I can't see the finer details of my brush at 25% compared to 100%, specially when inking and lines didn't connect but it shows they are connected at 25%, so yeah it does make a difference working on different zooms

I use real world document sizes @ 300 dpi and most of the time I draw at print size which is about 31.3% zoom on my monitor. I find that it makes for a more consistent look to my work, rather than zooming in and out all the time. It's only for granular adjustments that I would zoom in.

Depends on the output size you're targeting. I try to work with at least 4000 pixels on the shortest side or 300/600 dpi if working with physical measurements.
