Luckily, I have gotten better, in the years since, and am approaching that point where I can, pretty much, just draw what I want. The problem was, I just didn't want to go through all that.

Without question, my figures looked a lot better than I was capable of doing, back then, without such a method. You see, after watching that show, I tried his method. I likely don't have 55 years left to do this stuff, so I found myself wondering if I will never get to the point where I can just draw what I want. I was left thinking, after 55 years he still needs that?! You would think that, after all this time, he could just draw whatever he wants with ease! I have seen Toriyama-San, the creator of Dragonball, draw his character Goku in seconds with a marker! While admittedly a simpler character design than a realistic human figure, that ability comes from years of drawing his characters, over and over, through so many volumes of that manga. When Ikegami Ryoichi drew his figures, he started with something like the mannequin used by Akihito Yoshitomi, but it was far more intricate, and included a great many more construction lines, than Yoshitomi uses. When he showed off his method, something seriously scared me. Now in his 70s, this man had been doing manga professionally for 55 years. A couple of years ago, though, I saw an episode of Urasawa Naoki no Manben which focused on this once favorite artist of mine. His titles, like Crying Freeman, Sanctuary and Heat, blew me away with the incredible realism in the art work, particularly his figure drawing, and the attention to detail. That artist is Akihito Yoshitomi, and his method is that of constructing his characters by first drawing something like a mannequin, which can be, somewhat, seen under the figures in the following image.īack in the 80s, when I first got into manga from Japan, one of my favorite artists was Ikegami Ryoichi. I am in no way saying, or implying, my show will look like this, as I sincerely hope and pray it will look a lot better, but you gotta start somewhere, right? In this case, as much as I love the art of Kim Jung Gi, and find that method of drawing enjoyable, there is another artist, I follow regularly, that has a very different method. Or… just maybe… Procreate Dreams will come in November and replace both of them! Maybe I should just use Clip Studio Paint for what it is good at, and use Procreate for what it is good at. Maybe there is no final answer to The Great Back and Forth.

The question, then, becomes, do I prioritize speed, quality or enjoyability? Of course, I want all three. While Clip Studio Paint's brush engine is unquestionably better, I think my Procreate stuff looks better overall. While I am most certainly faster in Clip Studio Paint, I don't know if it is really all that enjoyable. Strangely, I am not even using that interface. Most recently, I switched back to Clip Studio Paint because version 2.1 offered significant upgrades, including a Procreate style tablet interface. They often center around speed, quality and enjoyability. The reasons behind The Great Back and Forth, as I keep switching between Procreate and Clip Studio Paint, are varied.

This shows that Procreate Dreams can do full on, Disney Style, frame by frame animation with the best of them. Well, they got a nice little demo out of him, which you can see on his YouTube channel. You may remember just a couple of weeks ago, I wrote about former Disney artist, and animator, Aaron Blaise, and his recent demo on paper animation. On top of that, it looks like they got some serious heavy hitters as beta testers, putting out demos for the upcoming launch. This tool must have been in development for quite some time. Now I know why.Ĭlearly, Procreate Dreams is not something that they just threw together. They said Procreate, despite some simple animation tools, is for illustration and painting. The guys over at Procreate always said no. Many of the power users who have been doing great things with those animation features have always been asking for more.

Procreate, the first software I ever got for the iPad, which was for a one time price of $9.99, after which I have never paid for another upgrade, has some limited animation features. As far as Procreate is concerned, a lot of things are starting to make sense to me now. I have an announcement of my own to make, regarding subscription software, but that is another story. As you know, Clip Studio Paint is a subscription, and that is the biggest demerit against it. That will be a one time price, same as with Procreate, and not a subscription. From what I hear, it will be released on November 24th, this year, and will be $20. Just when I was getting settled back into Clip Studio Paint, and finding my groove, the guys over at Procreate dare to announce Procreate Dreams, their upcoming, full fledged, animation package.
