I’ve used quite a few of the larger, rubber tipped styli on the ipad, and have yet too be happy with any of them. My favored workflow with them would be to photograph a paper sketch, then paint digitally. They just don’t have the detail I prefer.
That being said, I was able to use the new Adobe Ink and Slide for just a few minutes, and came away very impressed with the hardware. The small tip and accuracy worked really well. The software it’s chained to, however, could use some work. The interface is easy to grasp, but doesn’t provide layers, which coming from Adobe, seems like a huge miss.
If I already owned a compatible ipad, I’d be asking the company to purchase a set to try out.
