My surface pro 4 would last about 2 hours of using ArtRage, the new model now lasts about 3.5 hours which means that I have found I am not glancing at my battery levels all the time and can finish most of a painting on a single charge. I like to draw outside and therefore have to bump my brightness up to 100%. More disk space of 256GB, so I could hold all my art and videos locally on the disk and wouldn't have to connect an external disk.ģ. This is probably not much of an issue for most people though, but at times I found the fan to be a little distracting, and when it turns on I would always wonder why!, what is it doing!Ģ. It is fanless unlike the i7 2017 model, and my surface pro 4. I already own a Surface Pro 4 so my decision was partly based on what improvements the new model would offer.ġ. I have got the i5 8GB one with 256GB disk, which is the mid range 2017 version. These bootup times I have found are just about identical to the ipad pro. Regarding boot up times it takes about 20 seconds from cold, but when I press the power button is puts it into sleep and takes about 2 seconds to come up. I have a cintiq but have found that I never use it as I love the portability and convenience of the surface pro for my art. The new surface pro pen currently has a lot of jitter issues (mainly because it is trying to implement tilt) and is impossible to use as an accurate drawing implement, but I have found the Bamboo Ink and Adonit Ink to be much better and in fact think that the Adonit Ink, although cheaper than the new surface pen is the closest I have found to the accuracy of the apple pencil.

It may be that I have just developed more muscle memory and feel from using the surface pro so much, but of course ArtRage exists within the windows ecosystem which I have found offers me much more flexibility.įor example I can setup some hardkey shortcuts, via a numpad and also using the volume up and down for brush size resizing and colour picking, this tactile feeling I realised was essential for my workflow.Īlso I use the more advanced features of ArtRage, like the sticker spray and the warp and not to have these just makes painting a little more awkward. I could never quite get the feel for using ArtRage on the ipad pro, of course it has reduced functionaly but it didn’t feel natural to me, in fact I couldn’t get on with any ipad app. I could never get used to the feel of the pencil, it felt too hard on the screen, I used a matte screen protector to increase the friction but still preferred the slight give I get in the surface pro stylus.

I’d also love to see a History, like in that said, as an artist’s toolbox ready to crack open and get started, ArtRage is close to perfect.I have had both and have put in many hours desperately trying to use the ipad pro 12.9 because the apple pencil is the best stylus out there and is amazingly accurate.īut I keep returning to the surface pro and in fact have just put up my ipad pro on ebay And ArtRage uses a color wheel-type color picker, which sometimes makes it hard to find the right color you want: A sample palette would be a great addition to the eye dropper tool, although you could simple use a layer and delete it when you are done. If you are looking to make photo montage or use images in your paintings, you’ll need to first use a program like Paint.NET to prepare your images and import them. There’s no photo manipulation in ArtRage Studio Pro.
You can open images to use as reference guides (and you can eye dropper select colors from these) or as a traceable image that’s placed on your canvas but doesn’t print or export with your image unless you want it to. These worked exactly like I expected, again intuitive and simple, yet useful.
The features I really liked in ArtRage Studio Pro were the Layers, Trace, and Ref. Once you get the hang of the elegant yet unusual UI, it’s intuitive, and surprisingly ergonomic: Everything you need to paint is within a small, easy to find place. Unlike PD Artist, however, it’s very easy to find and set the kind of media you want to use, on the type of paper or canvas you want, and the effects are staggeringly good. Just like with digital painter PD Artist (and completely unlike real-life painting), the ArtRage tools aren’t constricted by the media-you can oil paint to your heart’s desire, then water color over the top. If you are looking for spray on photo-realistic rocks and leaves, try PD Artist. Some of the sticker shapes are odd, and they don’t include things like tree leaves that you could actually use to create a realistic plant feel, like you can with $79 PD Artist’s brush effects. The two special effects tools that are part of ArtRage Studio Pro are the Glitter Tube (which smears glitter) and a Sticker Spray, which applies shapes like dice, fireballs, flowers, ladybugs, etc.
