You can draw and paint things with it.Īs long as that's what the job needs, then it's enough for those jobs.Ĭlip Studio Paint is factually used by animation studios, comic book artists, illustrators, game developers. It's also easy to export recorded timelapses of your drawings, which gets a lot of attention if the illustration is nice. It's popular because the iPad is popular. Procreate is one of the oldest and most established tablet-friendly apps exclusive to Apple devices. Heck, some people bought an iPad Pro and proceeded to never use it for art because they just hate the feel of it for some reason. It won't get you professional connections or impress people hiring artists. Your friend seems to have bought into the Apple status symbol too much.Īn iPad (and Procreate) doesn't make you a professional. Let's get to the heart of the thing rather than the semantics here. (Disclaimer, I make videos for Clip’s YouTube channel, so I may have some bias, but I had been using it since the Manga Studio 4 days, so, uh, I really just like it.) The year subscription for $24 on the iPad is well worth it. If you’re more comfortable making stuff in CSP, make stuff in CSP. I have seen plenty of Bic pen drawings that blow my mind, and that’s not considered a “professional” pen.
Clip studio paint vs procreate full#
The only big knock against CSP is the lack of a true CMYK, but I usually work in RGB in other programs until the very last second anyway, just to have the full range of effects.Īt the end of the day, it’s about the work you create, not the tools you used to get there.
I often mix in some Photoshop depending on my mood, but I have completed professional illustration projects start to finish for large game companies using only CSP. I use it all the time for my professional illustration work. It supports high-DPI files and has great versatility.
Clip Studio Paint is as professional as the work you create with it.
