    Editing a comment I made earlier -- Sorry if I was rude. This comment was made when I was frustrated in trying to download the free brushes. Yes, I paid $2.00 for these free brushes, but that was my choice to help support this channel, not because it was required. My problem with the download was operator error, nothing to do with the process. Once I calmed down and took a breath, everything worked well when I went back to try again. Everything is hard when trying to learn something new, especially when you are 78 years old! Love your videos and I apologize for my blowing off steam at your expense. I also appreciate the fact that you posted my comment, even though it wasn’t, very complimentary.

    Honestly line tools should now just auto vector so up scaling isn’t necessary. It’s such an obvious and easy fix but things like adobe illustrator make it look way more complex than it has to be. Like companies just need to create vector brush packs #its2020

    • @user-ql7bx6ll9e
      @user-ql7bx6ll9e 4 роки тому +19

      Vector capable software is wildly difficult to create from a development standpoint, and is largely limited by hardware. It's unfortunately not as simple as just "adding a tool", it often requires a ton of restructuring behind-the-scenes, sometimes to the point of creating a whole other copy of the software. Not to say that it's impossible or that other software is neccessarily better for having it, but changing and adding tools after the fact is very difficult.

It’s taking me a while to get used to how lineart and coloring works in procreate.

As I am a 70-yr old hobbyist, I don't really need to get your complete starter set - but I downloaded it to my PC anyway, unzipped it, then hadn't a clue what it all meant and what I was supposed to do with it, so it's still sitting there, unused, untransferred to the iPad and - by now - forgotten.
