I may or may not have made a few videos about Sketchbook which are up on the Tubes. Apologies for the dreary tone of my voice if you venture that far...

anecdotal perhaps, but one of the big -if not biggest- game changers for me is mapping the pan/zoom tool ('puck') to the pen button, essentially being able to navigate the drawing quickly and seemlessly without a keyboard makes the whole drawing experience quicker, more fluid + natural.

I've been using it since about 2010-11. For all sketching, drawing and painting. It was the first to have rulers and ellipse drawing tools that allow you to keep stroke pressure etc. Simple but the best digital drawing experience in my experience. I'm cintiq based so that may have some bearing too.

thanks Ste, usual process of drawing and colouring in Sketchbook Pro then grading in Ps until it looks good (or better than was, at least)

not sure, something to do with accounts being deleted or just those in charge hating the user base or I don't know.

not sure if this will do it?

oh cool! I remember Jess talking about this!

stand by

exactly - the immeadiacy of sm is the appeal - and the curse!

Yeah I did think about adding a blog page to my website...

right, need to get my asccount up to date over there...

yeah haven't been on one for about 20 years. Maybe a very large Whatsapp chat group?

I think - as usual - those running the joint hate the user base.

i haven't used a forum in years - yeah, I guess it's quite a different experience these day.

not right now, i could fix one up maybe- with the text?

draw as if no one will see it

just draw

yeah, oh dear. you can learn what this enemy is all about in aprox. 3 minutes. I feel it's the way it will go...

yoiu're right, that's absolutely fair - rot them all!

overcome it?

Indeed!

nah, they're getting enough grief for it so far.

yep, it's a road, not a roundabout (or some better and more profound analogy beyond my limited abilities)

absolutely! I doubt I'll ever overcome that - no matter the size of the job, but I'll never willingly give myself over to tHe MaChInE...

some guy/s

right, we all have doubts about how and what we do, but I enjoy all parts of the process from idea to final, outsourcing any part of that will start the rot...

I won't call them out by name.
