[Extra] Epona sketch

What would happen if I switched from my old yet cozy desktop PC with a large Intuos Pro to a mobile device?

I’ve been experimenting with Infinite Painter on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S4. I’m still in the eye of the learning curve storm, but it’s good to know that it is possible to create something interesting with the limitations of a mobile device. Not having a keyboard in my left hand slows me down considerably when switching between tools. However, what can be accomplished with gestures unexpectedly boosts productivity. In a nutshell:

- - - - - - -

The good:

- Gestures are excellent, almost addictive.

- Drawing feels easier on a tablet display.

- Adding complexity won’t be such a problem (to an extent).

- Infinite painter’s behavior was pretty good (no crashes etc.).

The bad:

- The stylus feels tiny and fragile.

- Limited hardware limits canvas size.

- Limited hardware limits the number of layers (forcing me to merge them more often).

- It’s great for sketching, but it doesn’t replace the versatility of a desktop.

The ugly:

- Infinite painter is wholly broken when exporting to PSD, a deal breaker for patrons looking for the original, multilayered file (RIF, KRA, PTG, PSD, etc.) as a benefit.

Anyway, I had fun painting this small piece on my tablet. Today I’d like to share this intimate moment of Epona with you guys. =^___^=

Enjoy!
