BRUSH DRIFTS FROM PEN PAINTTOOL SAI SOFTWARE

Paint Tool Sai, Manga Studio 5 (Clip Studio Paint for the Japanese illustrators), and Mangalabo, for instance all use brush stabilizer algorithms which put Photoshop to shame they extrapolate the direct information received from the pen tip and create smooth transitions from one pressure state to the next, resulting in beautiful, smooth line work.

Unless I'm doing really broad stroke generalized fills with huge brushes, I simply do not drift into that lower accuracy zone, and when I do, it's not the kind of work which would create any noticeable difference wrt pressure.įurther, the art software has a FAR greater impact on line quality than the digitizer hardware. In keeping with this logic, only brush sizes of 257 pixels or greater would overwhelm the stylus/digitizer's ability to accurately describe the range of possible brush states.

Also, well within the scope of fine control via the Wacom hardware. When 'inking', I'll use up to a 30 pixel brush. That means there are only possible 13 states that brush tip can have, thus only 13 levels of pressure are needed to completely describe everything that brush can do. I most often use a brush size set to 13 pixels. I do all my 'pencil' work using an air brush set to a medium opacity black, which puts down a nice gray line very similar to what a pencil offers. I found the pressure sensitivity level to be completely fine, and when thinking over why this was so, I came to a few realizations. I currently have a new 200 page GN at the printing plant which was created entirely using old Toshiba hardware.

I've been using a Toshiba Tecra M4 TabletPC for a few years now for creating press-quality comics. Just wanted to chime in here about pressure sensitivity.
