Rawdogging comic art. No sketchups or wacoms or adobe suites or mangastudio or ipad pros. Just me some paper, a pencil, and a pen. The bonus is I'm not giving a tech company all the data to replace me with ai. #oldschoolpro

Old MS Paint -> Old Paint.Net -> Some old version of Photoshop -> MangaStudio Ex4 (precursor to CSP); as well as a myriad of other software I tend to use on a whim.
Artist QOTD #1:

What art program/app do you use? Which is the one you started with and which is the one you are currently using?

My digital art program journey? Let's see if I can remember em all...

• Photoshop Elements 8
• PaintTool Sai
• Photoshop CS2 (I think?)
• MangaStudio (Later rebranded to Clip)
• ClipStudio Pro

I've stuck with Clip ever since
My digital art program journey

- Paintshop Pro (2004 or 2005?)
- Photoshop CS2
- PaintTool SAI
- Clip Studio
- Procreate
- Clip Studio again lol

Man, I've been through a lot of programs huh...
My digital art program journey

- Adobe Flash animation? (I'm not 100% but it was an adobe program in 2009 that let you do frame by frame animations)
- Adobe Photoshop circa 2012?
- Krita

I adore krita. I occasionally consider getting a second program to aid but it will always be my main love

Try Krita, Gimp, Inkscape.

Whatever you choose to do kill your adobe sub. Ibus Paint, Procreat, Clipstudio pro, damn Mangastudio. ANYTHING.

p.s. I understand some need to use Adobe for job, but anyone else should ditch it imo
