Agree with the guy above. Practice and patience are the hardest thing.

Use online drawing guides to learn about basic shapes that make up your drawing and then building up from that base. By using shapes before the detail you can ensure that everything is in proportion and perspective before you get to far and realise something doesn't sit right on the page.

For digital drawing, learn to love layers and the undo and erase brush. If something doesn't look right. Just erase it and start again.

I love digital fx magazine and the guides in it. They are based on pc drawing but the basic concepts translate to Android apps. Their youtube page is also good
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] asepuhuybok:
Do you hv a recomended online drawing guides web?where do i can find the digital fx magazine? Your quote will be my guidance to practice.. :p:D:D:D

Thx a lot ..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] hertsjoatmon:
I meant imagine fx, not digital . can get it on the play store (at least in my area). Otherwise just try Google searches for step by step guides to drawing "blank". And search for what you are trying to draw

Hello all =)

This is my first post here. I wanted to show you a W.I.P. of a painting I'm doing on Sketchbook Pro but I can't since I have less than 10 posts.... I have to read the previous posts to see what apps have been test =)

I've tested several apps, but found that the most robust one until now is this one from Adobe. Artflow is amazing, but it gave me several errors and I ended up losing a big painting I was doing....

Amazing work :) Are you an urbansketcher? Love the whole piece, and the format!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] TheNeighbor101:
Thanks. I head the the Urban Sketchers in the Philippines. Here's another done today. I sketch while our capital suffers from the continuous rains.

More colour on this one. I like it a lot =) Can't wait to show you mine =) I'm going on vacation next week so I think I'll be able to make a full painting... SktBook Ink seems like a great app for your style =) I love it a lot (specially those brushes...), but think overall it's a little "basic" app.

I'm sorry to hear the rain doesn't stop. Are there any floods? Hope not....
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] hertsjoatmon:
I tried to start a comparison chart between the "top" options available but I only have a small selection of them so there is only so much I can add to it.

My current work flow involves sketching in Layerpaint due to its simplicity and ability to import and export PSD files (a must in my view) and then to colour them with CloverPaint which in my opinion is the most feature rich of all the available apps for android. The interface takes a little getting used to, but once you are used to it, it is a very rewarding tool to use.

I'm thinking of adding a vector based app to my workflow for my line art as i like the clean lines and customability that comes with vectors. That is for comic style art though.

I'd go layerpaint (sketch), vector programme (ink), CloverPaint (colour). I just need to decide what my preference will be for step 2.

I dabbled a little with infinate painter and really like the way that it immitates natural media. I've not used it for more than testing of its features though yet.

---------- Post added at 04:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:18 PM ----------

I really like your style and added you to my contacts on flickr. Out of interest do you sketch using colour and then add the line art on top or do you sketch the line art and then add the colour on a layer below?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Taiyo85:
The first app I tried was SktBook Ink, but it seemed very very simple, but with beautiful brushes. I then tried SktBook Pro, but didn't go very far. I also tried LayerPaint, Infinite Painter for Note and Artflow. I gave them I try but as I don't have much free time, didn't try out every option... I fell in love with Clover Paint. It is an amazing app, but its UI it's not that good... I decided that I wanted to start and finish something on just one application, instead of trying every single one... So I'm sticking with the SB Pro in order to explore it full. I'll try and help you with the comparison chart when I find time :) Thank you so much for describing your workflow and for the work done on the chart :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] TheNeighbor101:
Thanks, Hertsjoatmon. I really like Sketchbook Ink, and I used the brush black lines blotches at the ends of each lines. Coloring is done under the black line layer. It's opaque neutral and pastel complementary colors. It's a little bit of for harmony theory.

I only used like 1/5th of a landscape top of the paper, and high res png export it a 3000 by 500+ pixels. I spent roughly 1.5 hours sketching the lines without layout. It was fun, and I learn to draw faster to prevent myself from not finishing it. Using just this one app just simplifies everything. I used the photo editor just to crop this almost 180 degree panoramic view. No photo reference was used. Just good old intense observation.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] hertsjoatmon:
1.5 hours is a luxury! I have an impatient girlfriend so I'm never sat in one place long enough to do anything like that and who also demands my attention when at home. Means I just fit in the odd half an hour here or there when the time is available and the creative juices are flowing.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] TheNeighbor101:
My wife just leaves me alone when she knows I need to draw. She started to join our sketching sessions herself. It's good to learn to do quick sketches in 15 minutes. I just took my time with the last one.

Wacom just came out with a portable Cintique running Windows or Android, but the price is between $1500 to $2000+! It cost more than my new Alienware laptop! I doubt it can last 2 hours with the Core i7 running it for heavy lifting. The Note is just perfect with the basic drawing apps and you could go on for about 8 hours sketching. I'd still like to get that Cintique for heavier drawings though.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Taiyo85:
I saw that new Wacom <3

Do you get 8 hours of battery life on drawing? I get to 4/5, usually with the screen brightness to the middle and all stock rom.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] TheNeighbor101:
With the screen brightness at 25% & with One Power Guard on,I reported I got over 7 hours with Chrome. I never really continuously drew for 8 hours but that's the up to theory.

The Note 8 operating rate is roughly 10 to 15% per hour. Heavy graphics games go up to 3 hours only.

By the way, for good battery management, everyone should keep the battery charged between 20 to 80% to optimize its ability to hold power in the long term. I'll explain that further on the Note 8 Battery thread.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Taiyo85:
I've been able to get 7/8 hours web browsing and with other light usage, but never with drawing. I'll try One Power Guard. Thank you so much :)

I have to find that battery thread :) I'm sure it will be a very good read indeed. Thank you again.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] hertsjoatmon:
Depends on what settings I have as to my battery life. I tend to leave it in power saving mode alot of the time (this limits the CPU to 1.1Ghz and lowers the screen refresh rate). it means some or your brush strokes react slower sometimes when you have a lot of layers etc but at the same time means you can draw for longer. If your using a more basic app like sketchbook ink, this shouldnt be an issue though as id imagine it isnt resource intensive as sketchbook pro or the like. The screen is the main drain on the battery followed by the processor, so managing those will get you the most benefet in terms of battery life. Saying that though, it important to turn of unnessesary connections if your not using them. I rarely have gps on, and only turn wifi on if i need it. Even when I do have wifi on, I use auto airplane mode to turn it off when I turn the screen off so it doesnt continue to draw power. I also use greenify to stop other apps turning them self on in the background, taking the battery out of sleep and using the processor

This is what im interested in as my next machine to replace my now 3-4 year old 11 inch tablet.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Taiyo85:
Thank you for the detailed description :) I do have some doubts if you would be so kind as to answer... Auto airplane Mode? Do I have that on the stock rom? Is that the option to just turn the wifi off when the screen is off? I'd have to check when I get home...

I noticed that you rooted you note. What process did you use to root and install the kernel? Does this kernel behave better in terms of processing and battery life than the stock one?

This laptop seems to be amazing! Never thought I'd say this but I guess I'll be ditching my Mac on the near future....

Oh now I remember why I didn't get Aury Ink...

I'm not a professional artist and I don't have to much experience with digital (feels so strange to me still) but I got the Note 8 to goof around a little more with art and sketch notes.

I've been messing around with Water Color Pencil Lite for watercolor it's not perfect but I like how it tries to react like real watercolor. I ended up buying the extras (more brushes and more paper textures). They don't have layers right now though and it's having issues crashing ... so hoping they fix that.

I'm so looking forward to ArtRage finishing their Android app. I keep watching the sticky in their forum like a hawk. I have that program for my pc and love it.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] litetaker:
My first try at art on the Note 8. No where close to as impressive as the others but then again I am not an artist.. Hopefully I can slowly improve upon my drawing skills.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] Friday'sChild:
I don't know why I didn't see it when I last posted but I just now noticed Raysoft (same people that put out the Water Color Pencil app I mentioned) has out their Hello Watercolor app for Android. It does seem to market it's apps to kids but... I think I might get the full version of this one too. Unlike the full version of the Water Color Pencil app this one doesn't have many settings (or like that app, layers) and it's not, yet, seeming like it was made for tablet.). I like that the WCP app has a brush that is just water, not sure yet if that will be in the paid version or not. This Hello Watercolor app also lets you buy other coloring books (haha) if you're not that artistic or just want to color so, you don't have to be stuck coloring the kiddie pictures.

I'm, hopefully, attaching two pictures one is a silly watercolor drawing I did in WCP (the text I added in another program) and the other is just my goofing around with the brushes, pencils, and erasers in the free version of Hello Watercolor (darn I didn't do any dry brush before I saved that, sorry. Like WCP there is the dry button).

Hey Guys,

I've been looking all over for a dedicated forum/thread of Galaxy Note 8 artists. So I was happy to finally find this one after some time.

I got a Note 8 about 2 weeks ago. Took a day getting used to the spen inaccuracy.

I discovered the Pen.Up app soon after I bought the Note 8 and immediately installed it on my Note 2.

Here are some of the drawings I've uploaded to my feed on Pen.Up.

Enjoy and thanks for having me.

I've been sketching for a long time, but just recently transcended to doing digital. A lot of the traditional drawing basics still remain true.

Of course you just need a bit more practice to get use to the new medium.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] damousey:

I'm a freelance artist who has been considering getting a Note for a while. This thread just basically confirmed that I'm making the right decision.

the Note 8 seems to be dropping in price now that the Note 3 is out, the Note 10 seems just a bit too big for the properly portable handbag sized sketchbook that I'm looking for. My biggest worry was that with a lower ppi than similarly sized tablets (nexus 7?) I might feel stuck for canvas size.

nexus 7 tablet plus pressure sensitive stylus like jaja or adonit comes to about the same price as a Note 8 now. I suspect that the technical trouble of the separate stylus, it's support in apps, and everything that that comes with that setup to be outweighed by the convenience of the S-pen.

I look forward to posting pieces here soon :)
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] FaeMinx:
I haven't posted any art here yet, because I've been too busy... but I can say that once you have clover paint sussed out and set up the way you like... it's an absolute dream to use. Would you believe I find it even more convenient than using my Cintiq 12wx?

All I've used it for so far is sketching out letter designs for banners which I then print out on transparency and project onto the fabric I'm going to paint. Terribly useful. Can't wait till I can sketch just for fun because it's going to be a blast. :)

ooh that looks really great, installing it, will give it a try tonight, looks a little more tricky to get to know.

btw, does anybody know of an app that works like Plastic Animation Paper ( http://plasticanimationpaper.dk/) ? trimmed down drawing app for doing pencil test style animation. 2 layers, 2 colour pencils, frame management and video format export. I found one called Flipaclip, which is almost there, but without layers, s pen support and in general a big laggy and clunky so it's not quite what I'm looking for yet.

Nice to see people have been busy since I was last on here. Christmas, New Phone and a hectic work schedule have meant that my Note 8 has been neglected. I will try and get back on it though.

Not used anything new since my last visit. Still on a mix of LayerPaint exported to CloverPaint.

I like Pixlr Express for adding additional effects to my finished work. Any recomendation on an app to add texture effects to an image to give it a more natural finish? The effects in Pixlr are ok but id like more options.

Any one know of any good reference tools? SO far I have,

Manga Pose Tool

I'm starting to remember why I lost heart last time I started using my Note for art. It take so much longer to replicate something that would have taken less than half the time with pencil and paper.

Saying that, I've ditched most other apps in favour of Clover Paint exclusively this time around.

Questions.

Are you using the the stock brushes the magority of the time or have you come up with your own? If so can you care to share your custom brush settings?

Do you use a screen protector for added friction? I'm finding the spen on screen to be a little to smooth and am thinking of getting a matte effect screen protector to make the experience a little more tactile.

I'll try to finish and upload the piece I'm working on for my valentines card for my Girlfriend. I'm disappointed with it but dont have time to start over unfortuately as its taking far longer than I had anticipated to draw.

One thing it has done is made me evaluate my working method going forward. I jumped to much between sketching, inking and colouring this image. I should have done a few more practice sketched before starting this. I need to stick to each stage and not move on until ive completed it. I just wish there was a way to shade my images in grey scale and then apply colour as the last step but that doesnt seem to be possible with any of the layer options in any of the apps I've tried meaning my shading and colouring need to be the same step.

One last thing. If you are on twitter, id recomend following [MENTION=2492274]sketch_[/MENTION]dailies if you are stuggling for inspiration on what to draw.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] TheNeighbor101:
I think we can do more serious work with the Note series. This piece I executed over a cad overlay using the Sketchbook Pro. It took me 14 hours to shade yesterday, using a combination of both Note 3 and 8. I don't do much digital paintings, and I can't invest on a very serious investment on a $500 Wacom tablet, but having the Note's Wacom digitizer is good enough for me.

This is a futuristic scene with my favorite building, the Metropolitan Theatre in Manila.
