Drawing in Photoshop CS4 with Cintiq 12wx (not AS)

So, this isn't Anime Studio specific, but thought perhaps interesting nonetheless as I draw nearly all my AS work beforehand in Photoshop.

Wow, you draw fast!

Did you really freehand all those furniture lines like the desk and bookcase? They look really smooth. It almost looks like how Manga Studio auto corrects lines.

Looks good, man.

Hi Neeters,

Thanks. Yep, all freehand, though I learned how to use the pen tool recently. You'll notice I do a lot of apple+z (undo) lines. I only see how many undos I do now I can check from the video. Anyway, I think I may do better with something like Illustrator for these kinds of things, Illustrator is just kinda expensive, so I use Photoshop for pretty much all my stuff. Thanks to the SmudgeGuard glove you got me from the States (which I still use almost daily) my hand moves way better on the Cintiq. So, thanks

Video was sped up like 800% or something - the maximum speed possible in my iMovie app.
