Title: Spencerian on a pen tablet?
Post by: RobertFontaine on August 28, 2019, 03:43:44 PM

(bit of a crosspost but the digital forum is a desert)

I have a new pen tablet and I have the urge to practice my penmanship.
Trying to use this thing is like peeing with someone else's ... you get the idea.

Is there a favourite drawing software for calligraphy/penmanship.   
I'm looking to practice traditional penmanship with a tablet kind of thing.

thanks,
R

Sorry I didn't see this earlier!

Procreate seems to be the software of choice for calligraphy on an ipad. But for an android tablet, there are some similar apps. ArtRage and Adobe Photoshop Sketch are two I have read about but have not tried. Krita is another one that is free and is supposed to mimic natural drawing so may work for Spencerian.

I hope that helps!
