oekaki still kinda sucks tbh

Postby tigressa » Wed Dec 05, 2018 9:33 am

For the longest - I've struggled with how my lines look to the point of frustration
and today I tried to use chrome instead of edge and it was far easier to get my lines to look how I want them to

What you see in my previous work are the products of many hours spent tediously erasing...

Size 2 brush for both, and I did not erase (to make points) for a fair comparison

edge -
wonky line thickness!!
pen pressure only,, kinda works????
Not easy to make nice points, have to use eraser a lot if I want those? ? (Didn’t use it here)

chrome -
much better, consistent line thickness corresponding with the pressure I put
Lines are a little less opaque than I’d like but not a huge issue
Easy to make nice points
More line variety!! can be very thin


At last... I see ...the light

I've never tried chrome for drawing and this prompted me to, it is really much smoother to use, though I'm finding the way the cursor disappears whenever I press down to be annoying since I lift my pen quite often and it bugs my eyes to have it pop up and disappear repeatedly.

Ah this was such a quick thing I’m glad it helps someone!! lol I just wanted to finally have a visual for why my lines were like that...

THIS HAPPENS TO ME TOO!! solidarity...I haven’t found out how to fix it;; But for me still, chrome is marginally better just for the smoothness so I’ll keep at it
