Day 4: Taking Mischief for a spin

Crow flyer

Felt like drawing something in digital format with my Intuos today. Why not testing new software at the same time?

Mischief

Took the mischief for a spin, as heard about this software long ago and was really interested in the "infinite canvas" feature.

The idea was to use it for the conceptual drawing of rather colorful skyline full of clouds as a background and with something dynamic, moving in front.


Setting up the background:




Finalized (for now):



After getting familiar and spending almost 3 hours on the software, the feeling is that this is rather capable software. The rotatable canvas is a huge plus and infinite canvas can be quite handy for bigger works, although didn't see the use in small works as this one. Cons? The amount of brushes is bit limited (didn't bother to see if there could be more to be downloaded etc) and the size of the brush jumps when using eye-dropping tool. Irritiating for me, but perhaps works better for someone else or needs different work-flow. But as a bottom line, worth to consider, especially with very affordable 25$ - price tag.
