iPad Pro is positioned as a device that can fully replace a PC for certain categories of creative people. Journalists iXbt decided to check if this is true, and asked a professional artist to use the gadget in order to draw something.
Actually, online a lot of such videos. The recipe is simple — takes all of a cool artist, he is given a lot of money, and now, please, on almost lubom the tool creates a very interesting work. Such a video is certainly very impressive, but confusing them a little. They do not give absolutely no ideas about the possibilities of the instrument. The person who simply draws (or even professional), will not be able to create anything even approximate.
However, these videos, of course, very popular. Perhaps the closest analogue here would be circus acrobatics — about it too it was possible to produce spots with the title “How to use two rings, ropes, pole and skin-tight bodysuits to fly like a bird”.
So the researchers decided to employ a painter who works. It’s no secret that illustrators today there are a great many. Especially in the depths of game development — all these multiple boxes, storage, books, bags — render their designers. Hero video just works in this field: Yuri “Yarrow” Vishnyakov, freelancer and student of school of computer graphics Scream School.
In 1.5 hours, first picking up the tablet, Yuri drew the book. The major inconvenience delivered the following: 1) the program is unfamiliar, and inferior to the capabilities of photoshop (of course). Some things become unusual. However, the main everything is there. 2. Very annoying that the touch of the palm is sometimes recognized as a touch pen. Generally, tablets such as the Wacom Cintiq in order to avoid this “dirt” there are special gloves that must be worn during operation. I have no doubt that Apple will soon release something similar, or brothers-the Chinese will help.
Everything else was very, very bad. The tablet is well suited to do quick sketches, it is easy to carry (unlike full-fledged graphics tablet). In General, expect software updates. Touched turned out great.
