Hello, Im trying to decide whether or not an ipad would be worth it to buy because Ive been doing digital art on my computer for months now. If there is any other devices that are better let me know.
Edit: sorry let me change the question--- what device do you recommend? Im open to anything really. I just want a new device
As title suggests, I am an artist that mostly uses and is most comfortable with pencil and paper. I have tried digital before on GIMP but drawing with a mouse was very difficult and the $30 drawing tablet I had was even more difficult and uncomfortable to use. I'm currently looking at other tablets, screenless or screen, to find which is the most comfortable for a physical artist like me to use. Looking online and reddit, most people recommend an ipad Pro and procreate but do not specify further on why. I briefly tried an Intuos basic and Movink pad for display at a Wacom store and both felt a little comfortable for me despite not knowing how to navigate the art programs. In short, does anyone have any recommendations for a physical artist trying to convert to digital art and if so, the reasoning behind your recommendations?
Okay hear me out. I’ll try to explain the best way possible and I’m a noob so I’m still learning. I want to create my character with sketch then with pen and color afterwards but I’m having a hard time with the layering. It’s kinda confusing me on what to hide and then when I trace over it just doesn’t look right so I’m confused myself. Is there a tutorial that can do the draw step by step so I can understand the tooling better? Sorry if it’s confusing 🫤
