#so between that and CSPP having and app

[saintvader]

hiya, would you mind me asking what tablet / programs you use for ur art?? I am really trying to get back into drawing this year but I’ve only ever really drawn on paper n I’m not sure where to start w digital stuff... I have an iPad but I’ve no idea if that’s any good 🙈

hey! i don’t mind at all. Hardware wise, right now I’m between tablets. this is why I haven’t posted anything new in a whil. I used to use the Toshiba Encore Write 2 with the wacom feel digitizer in it (as well as wacom truenote pen) but it crapped out and the pen broke and toshiba stopped making it and supporting it (their suggestion was “buy the new one”) So i reluctantly moved on and ordered a new iPad Pro 12.9 last week (after like.. a year of searching for something new, i wanted a surface pro but theyre more expensive)  I should get my new iPad tomorrow. Software wise I’m pretty happy with Clip Studio Paint Pro (formerly manga studio) but I may try out Procreate. I’ve heard good things. I’ve also dabbled with photoshop and PaintTool SAI in the past. they didn’t stick because I’m already too used to PS for photo-editing/other things and learning to paint on it felt weird and I’m also not much of a painter (in colour especially) so SAI didn’t really tickle my fancy (and i feel like it was wasted on the type of art i like to do anyway, it seems its really good for watercolour-y and traditional paint type effects) CSPP has an iPad app now and since I use it 90% of the time, I’ll probably continue using that on my iPad since I have all my custom brushes on there anyway.
