I was just wondering about the palette knifes in painter,
The loaded palette knife in particular
To use that tool properly, do you need a pen that has rotation control?
Like the 6d art pen (wacom)
I was surprised to hear that the normal pen that comes with the Intuos tablet
(The grip pen) does not have bearing (rotation) sensitivity.
Which, for the price I found quite weird?
I would think that the grip pen would have rotation control, to use tools like the palette knifes properly,
Because they are kind of useless with out that control, or am I wrong?
or..
by the way, if you have an Intuos tablet and the grip pen (I don't), does the tilt of the pen change the direction by any chance?
If that’s the case then it must get kind of difficult, because you'll have to hold the pen at awkward angles to get a different stroke
or...
on the Corel painter site, it says that the Palette Knife is parallel to the shaft of the stylus, does that mean the rotation is based on tilt sensitivity?,
if so, like i said, that must get quite difficult, to change the direction of the stroke
