Does anyone have experience with the Samsung galaxy note 10.1 as a sketchbook? It's got a Waco digitizer and pen which seems ok in the model I played with for 10 minutes. Have an opportunity to get one cheap but not sure it's well suited to sketching. Didn't see any mention of it up thread.

Yeah I'm thinking of using it primarily for sketches and thumbnails, nothing that would be at all final art. Although looking at that painting the Surface Pro seems like it does a great job. Don't have that kind of $ though...would probably get the new 13" cintiq if I did.

Bored posted:If you get this, root it asap. My husband had a galaxy note for work and it was useless for even doing tiny doodles on until he rooted it. Also, check out the ipad 4. It looks like it's about $100 more, but procreate and adobe ideas are great to work with, imo. You might also be better at internet shopping than I am and be able to find it cheaper. I didn't know anything about the surface pro when I bought my ipad so didn't have any clue why the newest ipad was cheaper than the previous model was. Well I ended up picking this up (it was $100 because the SD Card slot is broken). So far it's ok, it's not a terrible little tablet. I haven't rooted it but it seems fine for doodling. But that's really all I think i'll be using it for. Where drawing on my wife's iPad with a capacitive stylus felt like drawing with a sausage, drawing with the Note stylus feels a bit like drawing with a toothpick. The stylus is really light, and due to it's short length requires a different hold than my intuous or a regular pencil. The actual line quality is pretty good (i'm using sketchbook pro android) and the pressure sensitivity is actually really good but the screen is pretty low resolution (1280 x 720) and so even though you can set up large canvases it's a bit like drawing through a tiny window. So we'll see, it was super cheap and makes it easy to doodles and thumbs in boring meetings, but I think that's about as far as it's capable of going.

Well I got to spend some time with a Surface Pro over the Canadian Remembrance Day long weekend, and it was pretty cool. Having Photoshop/Manga Studio on a tablet with a Wacom pen was very flexible. But I realized that it wasn't what I was looking for. I'm not looking for a mobile studio, I don't travel all that much other than when I commute which is only a couple times a week if that. Around the house I'm perfectly happy with my rMBP and Intuos tablet. So it was kind of cool, but I know that the $'s on the Surface and Companion aren't good for me. I wish the Samsung Note 10.1 had worked out, I think all I want is to replace my paper travel book. Also, I'm kind of missing Procreate. poo poo, I might end up full circle with a new iPad and a sausage stylus.

Andrigaar posted:I scribble on my Note 10.1" a bunch when I head to a local cafe. Mostly in Sketchbook Pro and to a lesser extent in Artflow (due to rather lame pencil emulation tools.) The Note was ok and I think it probably works for a lot of people. For me it was a tad too large, I normally sketch on the train in a 5.5x8" moleskine knock off - so the larger form factor was difficult as the train doesn't have a lot of room (this isn't unique to the note, I had the same issue with my ipad and the surface would be worse). Also I didn't like the stylus at all - the pressure and responsiveness were good but the form of the stylus was too thin and fiddly, it felt like drawing with a toothpick. I could have bought a different stylus I think but I also found the Note screen to be sub-par. The low resolution felt clunky and the colour reproduction wasn't great although that's not really a big deal for me. Lastly I didn't care for the build materials and design of the tablet. It's actually a pretty good machine just not for me. Admittedly I'm an edge case - I'd love a nexus 7 / ipad mini retina with a Wacom digitizer and pen. But that's not going to happen heh. Edit: although there is the note 8. I might need to look at that. squirrelzipper fucked around with this message at 19:17 on Nov 18, 2013 |

On the off chance has anyone played around with Airstylus (https://avatron.com/applications/air-stylus/)? I'm very skeptical but even for just playing around it could be cool. I have a full size tablet, so I don't have a pressing need but when travelling which I do about 1 week out of 5 it could useful. I'd bite right away just to see but it's $23 which isn't all that much but is still high if it sucks balls. Who am I kidding I'll watch this thread for a few days and then buy it with a belly full of wine and the best intentions. (This is why I have a $80 stylus for my iPad)

mutata posted:Whatever makes it so you keep drawing is what you need. After you've started and are continuing and you want to accelerate or refine your learning, then we can talk about best practices. Yeah, the one thing I find between paper and digital is that I have to consciously not use undo, on paper there's quite often happy accidents or good mistakes that you don't realize until later. Keeping that digitally can be harder. But yes, if you want to draw pick the medium you enjoy drawing in.

Just kind of stumbled across MediaBangPaint and thought of the thread. It's basically a product similar to MangaStudio/ClipStudio with a couple differences: 1. It has support for windows/os x/Android/iOS 2. It has fewer features, but 3. It's free. I haven't installed it on my Mac as I have ClipStudio but I've played around with it on my iPad with an Adonit pixel pressure stylus and it works well, palm rejection particularly is nice as it basically ignores any input except the stylus. Don't know if the brush engine is as good as Clip/Manga studio, I imagine not but for roughing in thumbnails or layout work on the go or as a free way to get paneling and sketching etc. Anyway, it's http://medibangpaint.com/en/

Argue posted:Clip Studio (aka Manga Studio) just came out for iPad and it's got almost every feature from the desktop I can think of. It's also mega huge and took forever to install, but as far as I can tell, it's a solid port. Annoyingly, unlike the desktop app, it's subscription-based, not a one-time payment, and costs about $9 a month, but it's free for the first six months if you install it by December! It’s pretty cool, it’s the full EX version from what I can tell and is free until May 2018. Of course I just purchased astropad last month primarily to use my Pro as a tablet is Clip Studio...

Yeah it was pretty simple. I put my .sut brush files from my mac in Dropbox. Then opened Clip Studio on the iPad and Files on the iPad, went to the dropbox location where the brushes are. Then click on the little cloud download icon, which downloads the brush and then click the share icon and choose Copy to Clip Paint And then hit ok in Clip Paint Was a bit tedious as I have a lot of 3rd party brushes but I only installed the ones I use a fair bit.

Zbrush and Zbrushcore are a bit on the pricey side, but it feels more fluid than Blender to me. Zbrush you buy once and you get unlimited upgrades. Just to add, Photoshop is great I spend a lot time in there, but it has a ton of capabilities that if you’re just interested in photo editing are overkill. Affinity is really really good and performs better than PS, I would seriously consider it if you’re not locked into Adobes products. Blender is awesome.

Unless you would have only bought it once a decade before it’s not costing any more money, and this way you get the updates too (and while this year’s kinda blew, the 3 years prior had all been amazing stuff). I mean I need Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop. So that means I pretty much have to get the complete CC which is $80 a month Canadian. So $960 a year. As a bonus though I get Premiere and AE which I do use. My primary complaint isn’t cost though, it’s performance. The CC suite is really bloated and slow and doesn’t get better, it just gets worse. In every category it’s competition is way faster and more responsive. It is what it is but the cost and lack of any real focus on improvement is what irks me. Some of their stuff is great (like web font access & XD). Anyway I don’t hate them, it is what it is.

# ¿ Feb 25, 2020 04:26 |

Ok so I had some time yesterday to play around and get the Kamvas set up. A couple details – I bought this version https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07R4JFY2X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 . The only reason I'm linking it is because for some reason Amazon has like 4 SKU's and they all seem the same but the one I bought had a $200 promo code and came with a free stand. In addition I had an unused balance so I didn't really pay much for this thing. (This is the stand https://www.amazon.ca/Kamvas-Drawin...CQS7HZ2EAMRN7WT) Anyway overall impressions: • Build quality is way higher than I expected. I've only used Wacom and iPads as a comparison, and I'd heard that Huion was good but not as well built as the top tier tablets. The Kamvas Pro is really solid. The back is metal, not plastic, and it doesn't have any weird edges or poor fit at the seams that I was expecting from a budget offering. It's sleek, very thin, solid and has a very nice tactile feel of metal and glass. It actually feels really nice, like a Macbook does. They say it's portable and uh, I won't be hauling it around. It's bigger than my 16" MBP. If portability is a thing for you they have a 13" I guess. iPad>All for me there. B+ on the build quality! (docked a bit because the USB C port that the sole cable plugs into is more recessed than I'd like and makes it a bit awkward to plug in). • The screen. The screen is great. It's laminated so even in my quick tests I didn't see any parallax. The draw point is *right* at the pen tip and the responsiveness (which speaks more to my laptop than the tablet but...) is fluid. It's a 1080p screen which I thought I might have an issue with, but I don't. Color is really good although it's still an IPS panel. Huion claims 120% sRGB Gamut coverage. I know what that means intellectually but it's not a meaningful metric for me as I don't do work where color accuracy is particularly important. Overall the display is bright, and the pen position and response are exactly what you'd expect. B on the screen, be an A if it was higher resolution. • Drawing surface. But isn't that the screen you ask? Yes, yes it is. But one of the things I dislike about drawing on my iPad is the interaction between the pen tip and the smooth screen. It's not a huge deal and I know you can get matte protectors but that just seems fiddly. However, the Kamvas has a 'chemically etched glass' screen and it's great! It feels like drawing on sheet of paper that has a bit of tooth to it, the pen doesn't slide around and the matte finish prevents reflections from obscuring the image. I really really like the texture, even just doodling felt closer to paper than anything I can recall save my older Intuos pro that also had a textured drawing space. A+ finish. We'll see if it wears off/down as it's used though. • The pen. Meh, it's ok. It's a passive pen, which is nice because it doesn't need charging or batteries, and has 2 programmable buttons. It comes with 10 replacement nibs and a litte donut shaped holder. I don't have any complaints about the pen and it seems comparable to the last Wacom pen I had in terms of quality – my major thing is I've been spoiled by the Apple pen(cil)s and prefer the slimmer profile. But the function and ergonomics of the pen are good if unremarkable. One thing to note because it's a passive pen, the tip has to be really close to the screen for the buttons to activate. B- • Software. Ok, so the software thing is a bit weird and it might just be because I haven't had a dedicated tablet in a while. First, it's not a driver the way I was expecting. I'm on MacOS so I was expecting a System pane but it's not, it's an app you can install anywhere. The first time you run it though you have to give it elevated permissions in the Accessibility Security settings (Hello Xi!). Once you've done that the tablet is recognized provided the cables are plugged in and it's powered on. Other than that the software is pretty lightweight. The tablet has 6 buttons and a slider that can be programmed in the app. The slider defaults to zoom. One thing I imagine would annoy some people is that there is no ability to set different buttons and slider keys by application. For me it's not an issue as 90% of the use is in Clip Studio so I don't need a bunch of alternate settings, but if your workflow is split across several programs I could see that getting annoying. There's also the ability to play with pen curve and calibration, I didn't mess with that as I tend to set my curves in the brush options of Clip Studio so prefer a linear mapping as the default. C+ • Cabling/Connectivity. It's got the standard 3 to 1 cable. So on the tablet, it's a USB C connector and on the other end is a 3 pronged connector for USB, HDMI, and Power. It works. The cable's too short, not extremely but I could see if you had a large desk with components spread out it might take some jury-rigging to get set up comfortably. C. (Because I only have USB C on my laptop, this thing takes up alot of the ports in my dongle thingy and is annoying and I wish it was just one USB C cable but...) • Extras. The tablet comes with the previously mentioned pen/nib holder. It also comes with a right handed drawing glove. I've never used one. It's kind of nice I guess. (Could maybe fit left handed actually, I didn't try). It also comes with a micro fiber cloth for cleaning. Big whoop. BUT the package I got came with a stand, and I'm really glad it did. The stand is aluminum, seems pretty sturdy and has rubber contact pads to keep the tablet from sliding. The angle is adjustable to 20° , 24° , 26° , 46° , 48° and 50°. This tablet needs a stand, it's too big to hold and drawing on it flat would probably suck. The one thing about the stand though is I suspect it's a universal part and so it feels a bit small for the 16" as it has to accommodate the 13" as well I bet. But it works and was free so... B+ • Usage. I do mostly 'pencil & ink' style line art with either watercolor style washes or design marker style colors. So I don't know how well this thing would be at more natural media use (ie. mimicking thick oils or charcoal). Also I haven't actually done anything other than a few quick doodles, but the pressure range is easily as good as my iPad and there was zero noticeable lag or parallax issues. The lag would be more due to the computer anyway but thought it worth mentioning that the rootkit doesn't seem to interefere with driver responsiveness. Oh also, there's a left-hand mode that allows you to flip the tablet and have the buttons on the right hand side. Didn't test it, not left-handed. I'll be using this a fair bit over the weekend on a project so if I have any additional comments I'll put em here. I should also note, I don't make a living doing this it's a hobby so take that for what it's worth. I wasn't really ever going to drop $1200 on a drawing tablet, but $399 was better and the resulting $75 was awesome so that probably colors my opinion.

PSA If you're on Catalina the OS now thinks any Huion driver is a virus and won't run it after a restart. You have to delete and re-install. Apple has saved us from Mao, but it's a hassle. (to be clear, Huion tablets don't install a preference pane driver, it's an app that requires elevated accessibility permissions that you run once when you set up your global curves etc. We joked earlier in the thread that it was stealing all your data - i don't think it is but it's a /funny/ coincidence.)

Yeah to second on this, Photoshop isn’t really the be all or even that important to painters/illustrators these days. I hire freelance artists a lot for my work, PS is still good to know but for digital art it’s been overtaken in a lot of ways.

Macksy posted:Thanks for the feedback. I'd prefer not having to use ios, but I'll keep it in mind. I don't know if I could drop that kind of money on a tablet if the drawing programs or apps are inferior to what I normally use. If tablet apps are only good for sketching or light painting/illustration work are there cheaper alternatives to the ipad? I used to have an old samsung note, but the spen was pretty shite for pressure sensitivity, but it's been a long time since that. Are they any better now? Clip Studio and Procreate on iOS are not at all inferior to any other platform imo. The pricing model on clip studio is annoying though.

Not for android tho, the astropad guys are former iOS iPad apple devs, I don’t see them doing anything for Android. E; that said it seems duet might have something in the works for an Android client, worth checking out, I wasn’t crazy about their solution but that was a long time ago. squirrelzipper fucked around with this message at 04:45 on Jul 20, 2021 |
