PostWacom Inkling
by kiera229 » Tue Aug 30, 2011 5:21 pm



I've been using Wacom products for the last seven years and have fallen thoroughly in love with them. If this thing works as advertised, I don't think I'm going to be able to resist buying one - apparently they're going to cost about $200, which is very, very reasonable. As much as I love the versatility digital art offers, I still prefer to sketch on paper.

Anyone else intrigued?

I'm very intrigued, but I'd be much more excited about it if I could use any pen, or even pencil. That pen better be really strawberry floating good.

That, quite frankly, is genius if it works exactly as it shows. Didn't quite understand how the layers work, I'm guessing you would say do the outline, press the button for a new layer and then continue on drawing the finer details.

Holy gooseberry fool that looks amazing!

I've just got a Wacom intuos 3 and thought that was a clever piece of kit, bit this... :shock:

Apparently it's not very accurate:

I think they have it on the wrong output setting.




Thiat guy makes it look very good and he shows that by default it uses an odd line reproduction thing,

Wow, this looks great. And, to be fair, vector tracing almost always goes wiggly and needs a good bit of touching up unless it's a very graphic image. I'm liking the idea of where this is going.

What would be brilliant to have as an option is a blue/black finish. That way you could sketch to your hearts content, then finish with a different colour, and just knock out the messier colour channel as you can in photoshop, giving the option of a much sharper image if you wanted.

I like it.

So, does the little box track where the pen is so it has to all be in the same relative position?

Looks good but a scanner and some sort of conversion software would do the job.
