Anybody has experienced with it?

How does it compare with Illustrator, Photoshop, Painter?

I'm thinking of getting it...but I want some advice/opinions first.

Thanks!

Sorry Hector, I'm old school I do all my drawings on bristol paper and do all my paintings on canvas or Illustration Board.... I like the feel of pencil on paper,Brush/ pen and ink, paint and brushes......

I've never been able to get into computer Illustrations

I also draw and paint on paper/canvass (with different mediums)...been doing it since I was a little kid...but this is a new age...and to be able to accomplish certain things...you need to do it in the computer as well.

I have my business partner who does all the computer work for me when needed. I personally have no desire to draw or color on the computer.

I just like holding my art and mixing my colors and making happy mistakes and love the crunch of a deadline.....to each his own

I'm a fan of Manga studio.

I haven't painted in 15 years.

I tried SBP, seemed fine, I know some people swear by it. I also tried Manga Studio, very impressed with it's line quality.

But in the end I just come back to Photoshop, it's what I know best.

I did get a Cintiq after all, Hector. It's the greatest thing in the world. Enjoy your new toys.

I haven't used it, but my friend Eric does. From what I gathered it's fairly simple sketching software. May be one of those programs where it would be advantageous to sketch in and then export to a format you could then paint on or color in Photoshop.

You could email the guy and ask him, he does great work: Eric Merced

Congrats on the Wacom tablet: )
