For Me to Poupon

frenden:

I think I’ve got a new, better brush sorted from the lessons learned on that Photoshop inker. I want to make sure it works for others.

It’s slightly more opaque and maybe a hair more sensitive. Let me know if it’s blowing out your lines on the light ends.

I have a few tablets and styli to test with and some seem to work better with it than others. I plan on making a video showing which settings to tweak to make the light-pressure marks more or less sensitive to your input too.

SIDE NOTE: If you’re into inking, you probably already know about Manga Studio and Paint Tool SAI. You may have not heard of this, though.

Check out Clip Studio (formerly Clip Paint Lab) by Celsys, makers of Manga Studio (Comic Studio in Japan). It’s like a mashup of Manga Studio, Painter, and Paint Tool SAI, but is Mac native and 64bit. It looks sexy as hell. I have been kicking the Japanese version of the app’s tires for a while and really dig the brush engine. You can even patch the app with a user-made localization if you, like me, don’t know a lick of Japanese.
