Ive done some digi drawings, and I liked it so much I bought a Surface Pro, sadly found tou cant do straight lines with the pens, seems to be a unversal thing too, ipad was the same. and alot of people cheat wiith digi drawing by filtering real pics to look like artwork. I started with the wocom too,
Thank you all for your kind words! I will try to put more time into this.
@Gameleaper If they cheat by filtering real pics to look like artwork, they are only cheating them selfs I would think.
I do reference pictures in my drawings, the husky above is drawn from a real picture, itīs not straight out of my head. The wave is straight out of my head. Any artist has to reference something, be it a copy of something he/she did or something he/she learned from someone else. Nobody is born with a natural talent of knowing how to do something with out learning/imitating someone else.
I did use other programs in the past working with web pages and multimedia for a company I use to work for and used Freehand, Corel Draw, Fireworks and Illustrator. With these programs if you used "Shift+LMB" (drag to the direction you want) you could draw a straight line. Iam sure you can do it with "SketchUp" too. Not to sure if you can do that with ArtRage never tried it, but you can always use a stencil, ArtRage comes with a set of stencils or see video below
Here you go...
Care,
